CELEBRITY: Die Welt trauert um George Michael

Er sei friedlich eingeschlafen, teilte der Agent von George Michael am Weihnachtstag mit. Der Sänger sei im Alter von 53 Jahren in seinem Haus in Goring in der südenglischen Grafschaft Oxfordshire an Herzversagen gestorben.

Viele Freunde von George Michael drückten im Internet ihr Beileid aus:

So etwa sein Partner bei Wham!, Andrew Ridgeley, welcher schon mit George Michael zur Schule ging, und welcher mit dem Sänger Hits wie "Last Christmas" oder "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" feierte.
