BBC are reporting his death as due to heart failure.
So sad. He was so talented. |

This is possibly the biggest shock of all of them this year. Girlfriend, who was going to marry the guy
is crying. Could be heart failure due to drug use. Whatever it's shocked me most of all. Hope he's in Club Tropicana.

Bloody hell! I can't believe this! He was so well known. I nearly fell off the chair when reading that he had died. Again...bloody hell!

Another legend dies in 2016. Eleven number ones. Incredibly, Last Christmas wasn't one of them.

Same as what Carrie Fisher has just survived. Smoking, drugs, weight and diet are all factors.
At least we can all rest easy knowing it's all their own fault and as long as we stick to the water, salads and jogging we will all be ok. |

Carrie Fischer has heart failure? I thought it was a heart attack? How much does she smoke / drink / do drugs / eat macdonalds?

big shock,guessing its drugs or sex drugs and rock n roll, usually is. never really liked his music, it was like he was trying to destroy his career coming up with less commercial stuff after wham...
wham was too twee and poppy though, hated wham too apart from everything she wants and young guns. Last Christmas was awful, careless whisper I couldn't stand though I guess was a good song for a 17 year old. rest of his music after faith was pretty bad. RIP though, another childhood star taken away. |

Regardless of whether you liked the man, you have to admit he was a very talented songwriter and performer. I suspect we will not be told the details of his illness, but his long term abuse of drugs and rather reckless lifestyle will have been a factor. RIP George.

I don't think she's much of a drinker but she smokes like a chimney, was a huge coke fiend and put on a lot of weight suggesting her diet may not have been the best, and then lost a lot in a short amount of time which isn't great for the heart.

Until the post mortem is done, no-one knows the cause of death. 'Heart failure' is really a generic term used when the underlying cause is unknown. Obviously, when people die, their heart stops beating.
The post mortem should help to identify what caused the heart failure. A sad loss. He had a lovely voice and seemed to be such a nice person. I love his duets with Aretha and Mary. J. Blige. Also, his Comic Relief sketch with James Cordon shows what a great sense of humour he had. |

I knew 2016 wasn't done, even after Rick Parfitt. However, I never imagined it would be George! I am absolutely gutted as I love his music. Such a beautiful voice and funny man.
The worst thing though is, when it comes to death, I think this year is just a warm up. I think it's going to get worse. I hope I am proved wrong though. I have a horrible feeling some really huge names are going to go. RIP George Michael. I love you! Thank you so much. |

George's death is the only celeb this year who's made me weep.
He had so much left to give. Another 30 years. So very tragic.
