Dude, I've been a fan since "Bad Boys", but I'll be damned if you aren't the biggest crybaby ever....
http://sg.news.yahoo.com/050216/3/3qmzk.htmlBERLIN (Reuters) - Singer George Michael said farewell to the world of pop music on Wednesday, using a candid documentary about his life to put the record straight before he "disappeared."
He also declared the genre that brought him fame and riches, as well as unwanted media attention, was dead.
"That genre is just dead as far as I am concerned," he told Reuters in an interview after the premiere of his documentary at the Berlin Film Festival.
(EDIT)
"I just thought it was very important to explain myself before I disappear," the 41-year-old said. "I truly believe that there's a life for me that is not this one."
(EDIT)
"It's never suited me very well, the business of media and celebrity," Michael said. "Now I just find it unbearable.":eyes: :nopity:
Then Sir Elton John inexplicably starts ragging on Michael for "coming out" under shady circumstances, even though Sir Elton wasn't exactly honest about his own orientation early in his career - don't really get what the beef is with these two.
"To be busted in the toilet is not the best way to come out of the closet, is it?" John asked.
Michael said he never thought the incident would destroy his career, but he was "floored" by the media backlash triggered by his opposition to the war in Iraq.I had no idea Michael got Dixie-Chicked. I heard his single "Amazing" this year, and it was good, but nothing notable for over 10 years before that...
Anyway, best wishes on your future life, whatever that's gonna be about. But I sure wish I had a career as "unbearable" as yours...
