George Michael has the sort of longevity that’s hard to find in today's music business. From his initial pop partnership with Andrew Ridgeley to the present today, for over 30 years George Michael has been one of the most talked about men on the planet.

Over the course of five solo albums (with another to follow next year) George has constantly reinvented his music and himself to entertain, enlighten and challenge his audiences with his song writing. All this, while providing an unparalleled influence to new and emerging music stars.

Having sold over 75 million records worldwide, George’s tireless commitment to his music makes him a very worthy winner of one of our Icon Awards for Lifetime Achievement.
