Singer George Michael has died at the age of 53, his publicist has said.
The star, who launched his career with Wham! in the 1980s and continued his success as a solo performer, is said to have "passed away peacefully at home" in Goring, Oxfordshire.
Thames Valley Police say they are treating the death as unexplained but there were no suspicious circumstances.
His former Wham! bandmate Andrew Ridgeley said he was "heartbroken at the loss of my beloved friend".
Writing on Twitter and referring to Michael as "Yog", a nickname for "Yours Only George", he added: "Me, his loved ones, his friends, the world of music, the world at large. 4ever loved. A xx"
In a statement, Michael's publicist said: "It is with great sadness that we can confirm our beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period.
"The family would ask that their privacy be respected at this difficult and emotional time. There will be no further comment at this stage."
今日，根据外媒报道，知名英国歌手乔治迈克尔(George Michael)圣诞节期间在家中平静去世，享年53岁，警方称未发现可疑情况。
乔治迈克尔是英国的著名歌手，他曾在80年代初以二人组合威猛乐队走红，可惜的是组合于1986年解散。之后他的首张solo专辑《Faith》曾卖出2000万张，并获得格莱美年度专辑。那首深受明星喜爱包括霉霉Taylor Swift、A妹Ariana Grande、蹲妹等明星翻唱过的圣诞金曲《Last Christmas》就是他在威猛乐队时所创作的。
威猛乐队也是改革开放后第一位来开演唱会的外国乐团。 无心快语是80年代的超级流行歌曲，中国大陆几乎每一盘英文经典歌曲精选集都有。
就这么没了。论80年代的代表人物。他比大卫鲍伊更为中国人熟知。
