    The Press HATED GEORGE'S STRENGTH TO PUSH BACK AT THEM, HIS INTEGRITY, CHARACTER AND SUPREME INTELLIGENCE as they relentlessly never stopped with the gotcha game. Are you all happy now how you made him miserable because you were disgustingly jealous that he really was the whole package as an artist and as a human being!!!!! What a loss ....what a shame 😢.

    • @Jordan-zn6fp
      @Jordan-zn6fp 7 років тому +46

      The public in Australia and Australian fans absolutely loved and adored Wham! and George Michael. Unfortunately though, here in Australia the media and journalists are well known for having 'tall poppy syndrome'. The tall poppy syndrome is a culture where people of high status are resented, attacked, cut down or criticised because they have been classified as better than their peers. It's a shame they behave this way towards people like George Michael as he was such an amazing, intelligent, humble, talented, loving and giving human being who did so much for this world and stood up and fought for so many issues. George Michael was actually treated very poorly by the media and newspapers around the world, particularly in England and USA. They should all be disgusted for the way they treated him and disrespected him. He deserved love, respect and admiration. The fans that loved him and all the people that have been touched by his music, lyrics, passion, philanthropy and heart of gold, know and have ALWAYS known, he was a true gift from God and there will NEVER be anyone like him. Love you and miss you so much xx

      That other interview was on the Australian 60 minutes in 1988 while one his Faith Tour. It was a sit down interview and Jeff McMullen's opening question was 'George are you gay'. George took them to court and won. That's why it isn't available to watch anywhere.

    George has a beautiful face and personality th s t shines.
    It would be so easy to fall in love with a Manike that.
    Even though girls found out he was gay that did not stop them from wanting to be with him.
    How many men have a beautiful face like that ,
    plus a genuine way about him that attracted females and men.
    He had to put up with constantly being followed by the press because of his being gay.
    That was sickening
    I am a straight female and no one should have their life turned upside down because of their sexual preference .
