Who really was George Michael? The new documentary THE REAL GEORGE MICHAEL, available on June 25th, which would have been George’s 60th birthday, will be available on Amazon, Tubi, Roku, Peacock, Plex and Xumo in the United States and Canada. The doc details just that, told candidly from the people who really knew him best – his music manager Simon Napier-Bell, his longtime lover and partner Kenny Goss, fellow luminaries Stevie Wonder, Rufus Wainwright, Stephen Fry, and many more. By far the most definitive feature documentary on George’s amazing life, the film explores the many ups and downs of the illustrious Grammy Award winner, considered one of the best-selling musicians of all time with sales of over 120 million records worldwide. I interview the film’s director, Simon Napier-Bell, to discuss the importance of the documentary and George’s legacy, as well as share anecdotes about who he really was.
