The year 2016 has not been easy. From Alan Rickman to David Bowie to Prince, the world lost many gems this year and it has been just tough.

The entire world was left in shock when the death of pop legend was announced by his publicist on Sunday. The British singer was only 53 but his death is being classified as unexplained but not suspicious.
According to the official statement released, George Michael’s family said that their beloved son, brother and friend George passed away peacefully at home over the Christmas period. The late singer’s family has asked that their privacy shall be respected at this difficult and emotional time. There will be no further comment at this stage.
According to the reports, the immediate cause of the singer’s death wasn’t revealed but Thames Valley Police was called to a property in Goring on Thames shortly before 2 p.m in the afternoon. Sadly, a 53-year-old man was confirmed deceased at the scene.
George Michael had fans and admirers all over the world. Some Bollywood celebrities grew up watching and listening to the legendary musician’s songs. Today, on this sad day, many celebrities took to their social media accounts to mourn the death of the singer as most of them are still trying to process the news of his sudden death.

Please stop with the #LastChristmas hashtags. Given #GeorgeMichael ‘s legendary body of work, it’s too obvious & kitschy for a send-off.

Please stop the #LastChristmas hashtags. Given #GeorgeMichael ‘s strength in the face of bigotry & discrimination, #Freedom is more fitting.

The only singer post-Freddie, who could do Queen songs true justice. That voice, that range, that control. Unreal. #GeorgeMichael https://t.co/PRt64EfAtm
