Eli Stone is the story of a lawyer who suddenly starts to have hallucinations … of George Michael. It starts out with George Michael singing “Faith” on his coffee table. What’s so fun about the first season of this television show is that George Michael makes multiple appearances. All of the show titles are George Michael or Wham! songs, and many of the musical numbers are also George Michael songs.

Eli Stone stars Jonny Lee Miller, Natasha Henstridge, Loretta Devine, Matt Letscher, Sam Jaeger, and Victor Garber.

Tribute-show Acts are not the Real Deal, Professional Copycats Complain

Considering that ABC has been giving George Michael a lot of love by featuring him in the multitude of promotional commercials for “Eli Stone,” I wonder if the tides are going to change about George Michael in the U.S. The article, Tribute-show Acts are not the Real Deal, Professional Copycats Complain, goes to show that the powers that be on The One and Only wouldn’t let a George Michael impersonator on the show because George Michael was too controversial.

The George Michael impersonator Robert Lamberti, who is a former Stars In Their Eyes heat winner, was told he could not be on The One and Only because the former Wham! star was too controversial.

“They replied back to me with a list of acts and I asked them why he was not on it. They said it was because of his political views about the US President, George Bush. Because the winner goes to Las Vegas, they didn’t feel that the American people were liking George Michael at the moment,” he said.

For Mr Lamberti, business is showing no signs of abating. Riding the crest of the wave of the 1980s revival, he was returning from performing at a Marks & Spencer staff party in London on Thursday night before a gig last night in Doncaster. “The more that George is in the news, the more work I get. When he was arrested it was absolutely brilliant,” he added.

Rupert, He’s Your Man Now

Most George Michael fans know George Michael’s opinions on Rupert Murdoch, and so the following article, Rupert, He’s Your Man Now, quoted in part below, is perplexing.

Ask George Michael whom he hates above all other, and the answer, throughout the course of his troubled life, will always be the same: Rupert Murdoch. … So I’m amused to hear that 44-year-old Mr Michael has sold his soul to the devil. The former Wham! star has just signed an alleged £5 million deal with Harper Collins – part of Mr Murdoch’s News Corporation.
