Me and my buddy back in the day used to crank up Faith and Make It Big and sing along. With all the hard rock we listened to we still loved the man's music. Didn't care that he was gay. Plus, all the ladies like his music as well. I've got some soundboard boot from the Faith tour (Paris I believe) that I will have to put on tomorrow in remembrance. Thanks George! RIP

Yes, there is even a recent news article about it.
2016 has been a terrible year, for celebrity deaths.

Twice as many notable people had died in this period of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015, and five times as many as in 2012.

that makes sense, because as time passes people get older so they're more likely to die

Careless Whisper is one of my favorite songs and the video was very good. Wake Me Up Before You Go Go is a good one too. Good time way back in the 80's and 90's, when music was really music and not Bierber and Auto tuned.

I heard a report that he died of heart failure but it hasn't been authenticated.

It should average out though.
Let's say the average age of the worlds population in 2005 was 40.00 (wild guess on my part).
Then ten years later, in 2015, the average should still be about 40.00 (with maybe a tiny increase, because of life expectancy improvements).
Not 40.00 + 10 = 50.00 years.
Otherwise we would be living till about 1,000,000,072 years old by now.

Sarah Michelle Gellar getting shit for thinking he was Boy George -- oh no, someone mixed someone up, burn her! The thought had crossed my mind, but I thought Boy George was dead already.

Just his career is dead. It became harder and harder to be Boy George when he matured and began to look like a boy. Though I have to complement Boy George on his makeup job in his Wiki photo. Getting the Taylor Swift porcelain doll look with facial hair is quite a feat.

I've been telling people that 2016 has been a shitty year for death and destruction.
And we still have yet another full week to go.
