George Michael Died 25-12-2016 - Last Filmed Interview After Hospital Re...

Pop superstar George Michael's death at the age of 53 from suspected heart failure is being treated by police as "unexplained but not suspicious".
The singer died peacefully at home, his family said on Sunday night.
"It is with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period," Michael's family said in a statement released by Thames Valley Police.

"The family would ask that their privacy be respected at this difficult and emotional time. There will be no further comment at this stage."

Michael died at his home in Goring-on-Thames. His publicist, Cindi Berger, said he had not been ill. Michael's manager, Michael Lippman, says the cause of death was heart failure.

He also wrote a Christmas song that is beloved, reviled, hugely successful, and, now, more tragic than ever.
When Michael wrote “Last Christmas” for Wham! in 1984, the duo was making a play for the coveted Christmas number one in the U.K.—the badge of honor so hilariously lampooned by Bill Nighy’s character in Love Actually—but came up just short, finishing number two to the Band Aid charity single “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” It was a big year for cheesy British holiday pop.

How did George Michael die?

The former Wham! singer died of heart failure on Christmas Day, confirmed THR.

“It is with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period,” his rep said earlier. “The family would ask that their privacy be respected at this difficult and emotional time. There will be no further comment at this stage.”
