George Michael is an enigma.He is one of the most open and vocal pop superstars on the planet,yet he is also fiercely protective of his privacy. From the formation of Wham! in 1981 he immediately found fame and fortune beyond his wildest dreams.His music formed the soundtrack to the 1980s and he achieved all of this against a back-drop of growing up in a dysfunctional family where his father openly proclaimed that Michael had no talent.These scars would stay with him for life.Wham! split after a farewell show at Wembley Stadium in 1986 but Michael went on to greater things as a solo artist. Along the way George Michael has been embroiled in many controversies,but in a refreshing change to other superstars,he has been happy to talk about his problems and address his issues head-on in the media. Rob Jovanovic's new biography of George Michael tackles the issues that plague the superstar today,while affirming his place as a cultural icon.Also,for the first time,it analyses Michael's musical output and groundbreaking videos,including his recent triumphant tour (then 2007),the first for 15 years,when Michael returned from the music wilderness.
