I'm so sad - just read the news. I remember running home from grade school and sitting in front of the tv watching one of the Wham music videos. I really enjoyed his solo career too.
This has been a horrible year with not only celebrity deaths - a close family friend passed away in April, my best friend's father and one of my former students (12 years old only) passed away in March.
I'm shocked. I know he wasn't well a few years ago but I didn't know he was currently ill. I read he was working on an album just earlier this month. RIP
I am confused as to why they are saying that he died from heart failure. From what I had read he hadn't been ill recently and was working on a Showtime movie about his life. He was young so I'm sure they will do an autopsy, I am just surprised that anyone would report a cause of death before the autopsy results.
