Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou (Londres, 25 de juny de 1963 - 25 de desembre de 2016) conegut artísticament amb el nom de George Michael, guanyador dues vegades dels premis Grammy, va ser un cantant i compositor anglès d'ascendència grega, que començà la seva carrera amb el duet , i també com a músic influenciat pel pop i el soul. El seu primer àlbum de l'any 1987, Faith, fou un dels àlbums més venuts de la història, i el primer àlbum que aconseguí sis singles al top 5 als Estats Units. Els quatre àlbums en solitari van assolir el #1 a les llistes del Regne Unit i han esdevingut grans èxits internacionals. Aquest èxit va fer que George Michael fos l'artista més escoltat a la ràdio britànica durant les darreres dues dècades. El 1996 va gravar la cançó Jesus to a child, dedicada al seu amant brasiler Anselmo Fellepa. George Michael, egentligen Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou, född 25 juni 1963 i East Finchley, Barnet, London, död 25 december 2016 i Goring-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, var en brittisk popsångare, musiker, musikproducent och låtskrivare, som tillsammans med Andrew Ridgeley på 1980-talet utgjorde popduon Wham!. جورجيوس كرياكوس بانايتو ويشتهر بـ جورج مايكل (بالإنجليزية: George Michael)‏ (مواليد 25 يونيو 1963 - 25 ديسمبر 2016) هو مغني ومؤلف أغاني بريطاني مشهور لأب يوناني من قبرص وأم بريطانية. كان يُلقب بملك البوب في بلاده ويغني باسلوب البوب (Pop) والبوب روك (Pop Rock) كان من أحد افراد فرقة Wham! الذي اشتهرت عالميا في 1982 حقق أكبر إنجازاته الموسيقية في البوم Faith الذي باع 21 مليون نسخة حول العالم ويعتبر جورج مايكل من انجح المغنيين في العالم بمبيعات 85 مليون عمل موسيقى واثني عشرة أغنية رقم 1 في بريطانيا وعشرة في الولايات المتحدة. اشتهر في عقدي الثمانيات والتسعينيات بأسلوبه الغنائي الذي يسمى (بوست ديسكو) و (بوب الرقص) والذي استطاع ان يحقق مبيعات عالية مع البومات: "Last Christmas" و"Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go". فاز مايكل بالعديد من الجوائز الموسيقية طوال حياته على مدار 30 عاما، كان من بينها ثلاثة جوائز بيريت وجائزتين أفضل مطرب بريطاني مرتين، وأربع جوائز MTV للموسيقى والفيديو، وأربع جوائز نوفيلو ايفور، وثلاث جوائز في الموسيقى الأمريكية، واثنين من جوائز جرامي من ثمانية ترشيحات. في عام 2004 قامت أكاديمية راديو البريطانية بتسمية مايكل كأكثر مطرب بريطاني تم بث أغاني لهُ عبر الإذاعة البريطانية خلال الفترة 1984-2004، وتم إنشاء عدة أفلام وثائقية عنه ومنها (A Different Story) الذي صدر في عام 2005 عن مسيرته وحياته الشخصية. وفي عام 2006 أعلن مايكل أول جولة لهُ خلال 15 عاما، حيث قام بنحو 25 جولة في جميع أنحاء العالم على مدى ثلاث سنوات (2006 و2007 و2008). في عام 2016، وأعلن مايكل عن الفيلم الوثائقي الثاني له عن حياته بعنوان الحرية (Freedom) والذي سيتم الإعلان عنه في مارس 2017. في 25 ديسمبر 2016 توفي جورج مايكل في منزله عن عمر يناهز 53 عاماً. George Michael [ d͡ʒɔːd͡ʒ ˈmaɪkəl], nom de scène de Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou, est un auteur-compositeur-interprète et producteur musical britannique, né le 25 juin 1963 à East Finchley (Grand Londres) et mort le 25 décembre 2016 à Goring-on-Thames (Oxfordshire). Georgios Panayiotou grandit dans la grande banlieue londonienne avec son père chypriote grec, sa mère anglaise et ses deux sœurs. Le jeune Georgios Panayiotou est très tôt passionné par la musique. En 1979, avec ses camarades de classe Andrew Ridgeley et David Austin, il fonde un groupe de ska appelé The Executive. Même s'ils ne rencontrent pas de succès, les trois amis veulent continuer à faire de la musique. En 1982, George Panayiotou et Andrew Ridgeley présentent leurs compositions au label Innervision Records, qui engage les deux jeunes gens. Leur groupe, appelé Wham!, sort son premier album en 1983. Georgios Panayiotou devient alors George Michael. Wham! connaît rapidement un succès international avec les chansons Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go, Freedom, Everything She Wants et Last Christmas. En 1985, Wham! est le premier groupe occidental à se produire en Chine communiste. Mais George Michael participe de plus en plus à des projets en solitaire et il sort deux singles sous son nom : Careless Whisper, coécrit avec Andrew Ridgeley, et A Different Corner. En 1986, après un concert d'adieu au stade de Wembley, Wham! se sépare. En 1987, George Michael chante en duo I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me) avec Aretha Franklin et signe le début de sa carrière en solo. Avec l'album Faith, il devient rapidement une star internationale. Influencés par la musique dance et rock de Prince, les singles I Want Your Sex, Faith, Father Figure, One More Try et Monkey se classent en bonne position dans les hit-parades. L'album Faith remporte même le Grammy Award de l'album de l'année 1988. Dans les années 1990, George Michael souhaite prendre de la distance avec son succès et sa célébrité. Le chanteur ne fait aucune promotion pour son nouvel album Listen Without Prejudice, Vol. 1 et n'apparaît pas dans les clips de ses singles Praying for Time et Freedom! '90. Les relations avec sa maison de disque Sony Music sont tendues, jusqu'à aboutir à un procès entre 1992 et 1995. L'artiste s'engage de plus en plus dans des causes caritatives. En 1992, sa reprise de Somebody to Love de Queen est en quelque sorte le symbole de son engagement contre le sida. La maladie et la mort hantent d'ailleurs George Michael au cours de cette période. En 1993, son compagnon Anselmo Feleppa meurt du sida et le chanteur lui dédie trois ans plus tard son album Older. En 1997, c'est sa mère qui meurt d'un cancer. George Michael cesse alors d'écrire de la musique. Il fait un retour médiatique involontaire en 1998, lorsqu'il est arrêté dans un parc pour « atteinte à la pudeur ». Cet incident conduit le chanteur à déclarer publiquement son homosexualité. Il sort ensuite la chanson Outside pour célébrer les joies de l'amour en plein air. La même année, la sortie d'une compilation démontre la popularité de l'artiste auprès du public. En 1999, il sort l'album de reprises jazz Songs from the Last Century qui est un échec critique. George Michael ne sort plus de chansons jusqu'en 2002, date à laquelle Freeek! et Shoot the Dog sont commercialisées. Ces deux morceaux parlent de la société occidentale. Dans le premier, il dénonce le flux des images pornographiques et, dans le second, il condamne, avec un clip satirique, les manœuvres militaires et politiques de George W. Bush et Tony Blair. En 2004 sort Patience, un album engagé mais aussi très intime, avec les titres John and Elvis Are Dead, My Mother Had a Brother ou Round Here. Entre 2006 et 2008, l'artiste confirme définitivement son succès auprès du public avec la grande tournée 25 Live. Au début des années 2010, George Michael a du mal à se consacrer à sa musique. Arrêté par la police anglaise pour consommation de drogue, il réussit ensuite à entamer une tournée avec un orchestre symphonique mais il ne l'achève pas à cause de problèmes de santé. En 2012, il se produit à l'opéra Garnier de Paris en faveur du Sidaction. En 2014, il sort l'album Symphonica qui réunit des titres chantés pendant la tournée symphonique. Alors qu'il travaille sur un nouvel album, il est retrouvé mort le 25 décembre 2016 dans sa maison de Goring-on-Thames, un village situé dans le comté de l'Oxfordshire. Au cours de sa carrière, George Michael a vendu environ 100 millions de disques (plus de 115 millions selon Sony Music). Il a remporté deux Grammy Awards, six Ivor Novello Awards, trois American Music Awards et trois Brit Awards. George Michael (born Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou; 25 June 1963 – 25 December 2016) was an English singer, songwriter, and record producer. He is considered one of the most significant cultural icons of the MTV generation and is one of the best-selling musicians of all time, with sales of over 120 million records worldwide. Michael was known as a leading creative force in music production, songwriting, vocal performance, and visual presentation. He achieved seven number-one songs on the UK Singles Chart and eight number-one songs on the US Billboard Hot 100. Michael won various music awards, including two Grammy Awards, three Brit Awards, three American Music Awards, twelve Billboard Music Awards, and four MTV Video Music Awards. In 2015, he was ranked 45th in Billboard's list of the "Greatest Hot 100 Artists of All Time". The Radio Academy named him the most played artist on British radio during the period 1984–2004. Born in East Finchley, North London, Michael rose to fame as a member of the music duo Wham! and later embarked on a solo career.

George Michael, all'anagrafe Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou (IPA: [d͡ʒɔːd͡ʒ ˈmaɪkəl]; Londra, 25 giugno 1963 – Goring-on-Thames, 25 dicembre 2016), è stato un cantante, compositore e produttore discografico britannico di musica pop, soul e rhythm and blues. Con circa 110 milioni di dischi venduti, è uno degli artisti musicali britannici di maggior successo, sia nella madrepatria sia all'estero. Nato a East Finchley, Michael divenne famoso quale membro del duo musicale Wham!, con il quale incise l'inno natalizio Last Christmas, e successivamente proseguì una fortunata carriera da solista, iniziata nel 1987 con l'album Faith (con cui vinse due Grammy Award) e la relativa tournée. Inoltre, George Michael è l'artista che vanta il passaggio più costoso da una casa discografica ad un'altra, quando lasciò la Sony Music per la Virgin Records, per la cifra di 100 milioni di dollari. Dopo un paio di album (Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1 e Older), seguirono lunghi periodi dedicati soltanto all'esecuzione, dal vivo (Five Live) e in studio (Songs from the Last Century), di cover di brani di altri artisti (a causa di problemi legali con la propria etichetta) e una breve crisi personale (dovuta, in parte, a scandali legati alla sua omosessualità). Tornò alla ribalta nel 2004 con l'album Patience, e un altro tour mondiale. Nel 2014 tornò sulla scena musicale con l'album Symphonica, registrato durante il Symphonica Tour. Dichiaratosi omosessuale nel 1998, Michael fu un attivista per i diritti LGBT e per una raccolta fondi di beneficenza per l'AIDS. La sua vita personale, l'uso di droghe e i problemi legali fecero notizia durante la fine degli anni '90 e 2000. Arrestato per oscenità pubblica nel 1998, dopo quel periodo dovette fronteggiare reati legati alla droga. Nel 2011 cadde in coma a causa di una polmonite, ma in seguito si riprese. Apparve nel suo ultimo concerto all'Earls Court di Londra nel 2012. Il 25 dicembre 2016, fu trovato morto nella sua casa di Goring-on-Thames. Michael è tra gli artisti musicali più prolifici di tutti i tempi, con oltre 120 milioni di dischi venduti in tutto il mondo, nonché uno dei più premiati; vinse infatti due Grammy Awards, tre Brit Awards, tre American Music Awards, dodici Billboard Music Awards, quattro MTV Video Music Awards e sei Ivor Novello Awards. Nel 2015 si classificò al 45º posto nell'elenco di Billboard dei cento migliori artisti di tutti i tempi, mentre Radio Academy lo ha nominato l'artista più ascoltato dalla radio britannica del periodo ventennale 1984-2004.
