I have never thought about my sexuality being right or wrong. To me it has always been a case of finding the right person.
George Michael
Image
I think marriage is a good thing for children, because it gives them a feeling of security.

You'd be surprised how young 25-year-old girls can sound when they want to scream. It isn't that young an audience, and it really frustrates me when I read the word prepubescent in my reviews. Even the ones that started following me with Wham! are in their late teens by now.
George Michael
Image
I had my very first relationship at 27 because I really had not actually come to terms with my sexuality until I was 24.
George Michael
Image
You couldn't release the single on its own, because no one wanted it.

Basically I see that song as a bunch of images which I threw together to represent the fact that I was seeing one girl and then I started seeing another, and it was just the guilt in between those two periods. The ballads I've written since have been about things that really hurt me.

It was a very lucky set of incidents that led to Wham! getting a record contract - although we weren't Wham! when we got the record contract. We were nothing we were just two friends who had written a few songs.

I'm looking back to a period of my life when I was badly hurt and then looking at another time when I felt I had things going for me again, so I suppose there is a theme [of the Faith album].

Freedom. I won't let you down.

Even though it's become a really cliched thing to see musicians working for charity, it's still effective and it still has to be done.
George Michael
Image
Stars are almost always people that want to make up for their own weaknesses by being loved by the public and I'm no exception to that.
George Michael
Image
My American gay audience have continued to dance and sing to the music I make in a way that straight Americans haven't. I am grateful to them for that.
George Michael
Image
It's absolutely essential that we have the same safeguards that straight couples do. But I want more than a 50 percent chance of success. I don't want to emulate that.
George Michael
Image
People have speculated about my sexuality for years and years. They are obviously interested in my sex life. Fine. Let them speculate. I'm not going to put them right one way or the other.
George Michael
Image
I have no doubt that the music I release next will be better.
George Michael
Image
I really have no plans for any kind of career in TV or anything, but if I wanted to become good at it, I could. But I don't really think it's in the cards.

Image
I left school at 17 and was a star by the time I was 18 - in certain parts of the world anyway.
George Michael
Image
We always talked [with Andrew Ridgeley] about when it would happen - we always knew that I would go on to have a solo career.
George Michael
Image
I have to believe that somebody up there thinks I've still got some work to do.

Image
[My father] was more than apprehensive. He didn't think I stood a chance in hell. He had no confidence in me whatsoever and was convinced that I was going to be coming to him for money when I was 40. We argued about it constantly.
