George Michael News in 2014

The official George Michael site boasts “Exciting News Coming in 2014” and nothing else. Apparently, all other files have been deleted from the site.

Some media outlets are reporting that the only graphic on the page, a closed red curtain, alludes to George Michael’s retirement. However, I like to look at it as a closed curtain that is about to reopen with a new stage, new features, new songs, and new videos. Here’s hoping that I’m correct in this line of thinking.

New Book by Jazz Summers, Former Wham! Manager

Amazon Ad

Jazz Summers, a former Wham! manager along with Simon Napier Bell, has a new book entitled Big Life (Amazon Ad).

The Daily Mail has an excerpt of the book, which details how Summers made the “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” video shoot look bigger than it was and how George Michael usually only responded to the name “Yog” when drunk.

Jazz Summers isn’t the first to write about his experience managing Wham!  Simon Napier Bell wrote I’m Coming To Take You To Lunch: A fantastic tale of boys, booze and how Wham! were sold to China (Amazon Ad) in 2006.
