George Michael Says No to Wham
Oh, say it isn’t so-so!
George Michael insists there will never be a reunion for Wham. The 46-year-old singer, who made his name in the pop band alongside Andrew Ridgeley in the 80s, claimed it would be impossible to recapture the feel of the group 20 years later.
“Wham! was about being young and exuberant and you can’t recreate that feeling at a certain age,” Michael said. “Andrew Ridgeley and I are still good friends but I’m afraid we’ll never get back together. We both agree on that.”
Although George is proud of the duo’s legacy, there is one tune he isn’t keen on - their 1984 hit “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go.” “I’m not keen on that song. I haven’t sung it for a long time,” the singer admitted.
As well as being unsure about some of the band’s songs, George has previously confessed he made some fashion faux-pas while in the group. “When I see myself. I cringe mostly! Take the blonde hair. I wanted to have long, blond, straight hair because I didn’t really want to be me,” Michael revealed. “Looking back, I suppose I could have done without those curtain rings in my ears as well.”
