    What a wonderful interview. I love these two ladies so much! I loved Wham! and George since Wham! arrived in 1982 and I was 11; I'm now 50 gulp!! The book was superb - I have the audiobook as well as the hardback; just to hear them read their own words is a joy.

    Looks like a great book to red, love Wham! Singing and dancing Queens Shirley and Pepsi. Adore their friendship and how they interact with each other. They have always been gorgeous beauties, yes the photographs are absolutely stunning. George and Andrew are so charmingly boyish and handsome. ❤ ♥️ 😍🥰😘👑⚜️💎🏆🎵🎶

    This video brings back memories ❤
    As I was in Wham’s “wake me up before you go go official video” back in the day! where I bumped into a former classmate…George’s cousin ( A ) as we were both had enrolled in same graphic design course for two years at Croydon art college.
    I remember (A) designing Wham’s early record covers! When they were unknowns, Who would have thought!
    Fun memories 😊

    I believe I fell in love with George. I read everything I can about him. I especially liked the NETFLIX biography of George.
    He had such a different beautiful face, a beautiful personality and a voice like no other.
    How sad he is gone.

    I love these girls!!! They are "our" girls since the 80's because they were amazing person and they still are! The Wham! were completely different from the other groups simply because all of them were special. George is the love of my life... we should have fight much more for him, we should have tried to save him in a way or another, we shouldn't have let him leave, all of us, even who didn't know him personally not just his friend, all of us

      I’m getting the feeling that you weren’t around and clubbing at the time Wham songs were being played.
      Most women were ‘super female’, I’m assuming you mean feminine. Most of us only wore dresses, heels, wore make up and styled our hair. It’s how it was back then. I used to like to date a man in a suit or a shirt and trousers. Men used to make an effort then, not like most dress today.

    Lovely interview from Pepsi and shirlie going into great details about the wham days. Also George and Andrew were great in the band Especially George
    George wrote about how he was feeling in a Personal way from the beginning to the end of his career George's his Emotions within his lyrical contents you felt his Pain and the way that George sang was unique many can Relate to the wham songs and also to George's solo songs George will be Remembered for his Amazing singing voice that he had and for the songs and the lyrics that so many can Relate to across the world in Many Generations to come

    Wham! were a duo. A pop duo. Not a band. I was the biggest Wham! fan, but dont get why they refer to themselves as a band. And Pepsi and Shirlie were never even officially part of the act - they were just backing dancers.

    Why is it in 2023 you are not showing multiple panes where we can see all 3 of ye interact like a zoom/webex ? There is no excuse for anyone anymore after the pandemic especially for you given you are suppose to be the reputable reporter interviewing them. I saw some shady cut shots which leads me to believe there is no love, it is fake. Couple that with Shirley's interview recently on Graham Norton radio with Andrew Wycherley the chemistry was SO SO SO off.......be honest this is a fake!

    I wholly appreciate what Shirley was saying about hearing Careless Whisper. I heard the stripped back vocal on another channel on YT several weeks back, and to hear George's vocal, and only the vocal, was somewhat 'spiritual' for me.
