GEORGE MICHAEL

Of course with all the recent deaths and so many this year one tends to forget what one's put on Facebook and what one's blogged so I was relieved to see Rickay Gervais' posts upon George Michael's untimely death .  . .  after noting his passing and what a tragedy this is he posted George's appearance on the 'Extras: Christmas Special' from 2009



The ability to self parody, to laugh at oneself, is a very revealing trait it seems to me and all the interviews with George Michael have seemed to show an intelligent thoughtful man reflecting often on his place in the world of 'showbiz' and not always being comfortable with it. Yet not bemoaning his fate or the fame and the positives it brought him somehow. While I may not have cared for his music I liked him, as a man a person and nowhere more than here . . . . . . .
