I saw George singing away with many other stars when I watched ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’ on my phone today.
It upset me to think that he passed away at Christmas time some decades later. 🥲

There’s yet ANOTHER track that’s well worth listening to on Top of the Pops, with George Michael singing with Queen. The track is ‘Somebody to Love’.
It’s devastating to take in that George is no longer with us.
This came from the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, which I talked about back in May.

People actually lose height as they age. I used to be 5 feet 2 inches when I was in my 20s. I have suffered from back problems. Now I am almost 60 years old, and I am 5 feet. I lost 2 inches from discs in my back compressing. If I remember correctly, George Michael had back surgery. This would change his height if a vertebrae were indeed removed as he reported. He could have easily been 6 feet tall, then decreased as much as 2 inches after that time.
This is what happened to my own father. While in active service with the military, he was 6ft 1 inches, now he is a mere 5 ft 11 inches. Just saying!

Wham! happened to be the very first act that I saw this morning when I turned over to the music channel to find that they're covering a rundown of 101 'Feel Hood' 80s anthems.
I felt so sad to think that this vibrant and happy-go-lucky singer would only live for 53 and-a-half years, passing on on Christmas Day, 2016. 😢

Rob I have a feeling he might be closer to 5’11.25. I see 181 vibes from him. I couldn’t imagine him any lower than 5’11. He’s the definition of a solid 5’11 man to me, can look tallish but in no way tall.

I note George always liked a bit of a heel as he got older but never looked above 6 ft. I'd say 5 10.5 - .75, slim at peak) with a longer leg making him look taller.

I've known George for 20 years and he was definitely 5 11 inches tall. When he lost weight he always looked taller, His weight did factuate which when he was a bit heavier he naturally looked shorter. Age was also a factor as we do get a bit shorter with the years. I am 6 feet 1 inch and he was a few inches shorter then myself.

I saw George Michael once in a Nite-club (in the late 1980's). I am 6 feet tall and he was almost exactly the same height as me. I did take heel height into consideration.

Maybe at first I misjudged the height from George, in the pictures next to Sting we can not see their shoes, also Sting seems to get a little closer to the camera than George in each of the photos. Maybe they both have a chance of 181 cm. George met Geri Halliwell in 2000, she had a large heels advantage over him, and yet she looked almost a head shorter than him.

Editor RobGeorge has claimed both 6ft and 5ft 11...I think the 5ft 11 is more believable. Sting has been consistent with 5ft 11, though he too could be argued 181cm.

I think 5'11 would be viewed as tall to shorter people for the most part. If you are 5'11 and having longer legs opposed to a longer torso, you may be called tall occasionally.

Rob, I admit that keeping Sting and George Michael at the same height is simply tiring for me... Just type in the graphic "Sting and George Michael" in Google Graphics to see that Sting clearly looked like a taller one! Sting's peak height, in addition to other celebrities, was always more impressive than George Michael's peak height! That's why I think that 181 cm can still be argued for Sting, I think he could drop some factions down, being modest... Ultimately, I think that either Sting should get an upgrade to 5'11.25" or George Michael should get a downgrade to 5'10.75". I really do not believe that in their youth they could be the same height, George Michael really looked shorter than Sting.

Tonight on the Brit Awards, there was a beautiful tribute to George by his fellow 'Wham' members, Andrew Ridgeley, Pepsi and Shirley, taking the viewers right back to Christmas Day when he died.
Afterwards, there was a George Michael song performed by Coldplay's Chris Martin and towards the end, you could see George on a big screen singing the song at the same time.
It was all rather too emotional to take in heights, although when he was singing in the background, I thought "this guy was never under 5ft11 - not when he did this recording!"
It was good to see Andrew again! He looked fit and tanned. I think he was a tiny bit shorter than George in their videos.
I'm going to put 5ft11 for him. There's a bit of speculation going on about his being a full 6ft at the onset of his career among the comments I've just read. I think it's not impossible, though half an inch under could be more realistic.
He was nearer the 5ft10 mark when he died, but I'm putting
his optimum height as there is only one box! 🎼🎶🎵🎤🎶

Agree with the opinion. One thing that P's me off is how all the newspapers, magazines, internet etc say about 'oh it's obvious all the gay messages hidden in his songs when you look back'. Obvious, really? George himself wasn't certain about his sexuality until his late 20s, and has said many times that only after that point were some of his songs about men (and some were quite clearly that). Why must people try and feel smug by reading things into stuff that was never there? Life, and people, never that simple I'm afraid.

R.I.P - legend. Was quoted in the 80's as 6', as was Ridgeley. However, the duo personally claimed 5'11 and 5'10, respectively. Andy does appear slightly shorter, if you look carefully at their videos. Laterly, before his sad and premature demise he appeared 5'10.

5 '11 seems spot on. George was also thin at his peak - which helps in being perceived as taller. And latterly always wore thick heeled / bottomed shoes (giving a 6 '1 impression :)

May he rest in peace now. He was a good person and a gentle soul.

He used to get 6'0" listings in the 80's. Could have been closer to that mark 30 years ago and was down to 5'11" by 2012 when he was quoted on twitter as saying he's 5'11".

Bumped into him in St Tropez, in what I guess must have been July 1984, having his caricature drawn at the harbor's edge and I was taken aback at just how small he was (granted he was sat on a high stool). I was stood about a foot from him for a couple of minutes, he had not drawn any crowd (clearly nowhere near as well known as he was in the UK) and I respected his privacy and left him to enjoy his time away from the glare. I am 5'10" and 150 lbs and I thought he was notably smaller and more slight than me. This surprised me as I had developed the opinion from having seen a barrage of Wham music videos and studio appearances, with him in leather jacket and white T and thinking he was both tall and well built. He is part of the soundtrack to my youth and even to this day, but 6', no way. But what difference does his height make with undeniable talent like that?

I would say he has been -- I think he's been arrested roughly 10 times for some form of possession/intoxication. Not sure what effect that has on height, though. In most cases, he looks about 5'10-10.5".

I wouldn't say George Michael has been an excessive drug user and he's only 47. In the 'Faith' music video I thought he looked 180cm.
I think 5ft11.5 is perhaps a little generous as he did look slightly shorter than legit 182cm Sting in that Band Aid music video in 1984.

I think George Michael is a fine looking man with the perfect most normal height for a guy like him. Speaking for myself, I'm a bit over 6'7 (2.01 m) and I sometimes envy his definitely smaller height then me. Judging his height though, there's no doubt he's 1.80.. I live in sweden where everyone is actually very tall today.. especially in my school where the average height for boys are between 1.85-1.95 cm.. I'm just a lucky chap for being over 2 metres :P

Speaking for myself, I'm a bit over 6'7 (2.01 m) and I sometimes envy his definitely smaller height then me. Judging his height though, there's no doubt he's 1.80..

"I'm handsome tall and strong" "I'm big enough to break down the door"--lyrics from his hit song "Bad boys". A little creative footwear can make his songs come true.

If George says that he is 5ft11, I would believe him. If he wears lifts, then thats cool, but we will only ever know him as 5ft11. Sly Stallone, looks 5ft11, yet no-one in a million years would believe that height either.

Maybe the spanish TV host thought that George was taller, like 6'1" (1m85) or something like that and he was surprised that George was not that tall. But I'm sure that George is about 5'11"1/2 (1m82). On "YouTube" site, you can see a duo George Michael/Paul Young. Paul Young is 1m91 and you will see that George is not so much shorter compared to him, proving that George is definitely over 1m80.

And then, why the spanish TV host, who is about the same height of the stated Michael's one, said that he was shocked when he saw how short was George Michael??

In an interview of George Michael in 1987, the journalist asked him about his height, and George answered: "I'm just under 6 feet tall" (or 1m82)

Hey, Clive. In case of the Elton JOHN (not Jones) pic: Elton John is very well known for his footwear - He preferres Platform-shoes (just like Bono Vox of U2). George Michael is definitely 5'11" minimum.

I know about those growth spurts. I just recently had one at age 40 when I went from 5'8" to 5'10" with shoe inserts. It was amazing.

I think someone as vain as Georgios Kyriacos Panayiotou would be a wearer of the over-heeled shoe. I mean, c'mon, check out his beard! Is this the look of a man that's not vain enough to want to look bigger?

I can beleive 5-10 because he was listed at 5-11 on his arrest sheet. The 5-11 was probably with shoes on.

http://www.xpressmag.com.au/archives/2004/03/interview_georg.php. The interviewer notes that Michael is "He is smaller than you would expect with a slight body". So, his eh, current mate, must be a pretty short guy because on the segment of Behind of Music that I just viewed, Michael had a couple inches on him.

Isn't it nice when when you have a growth spurt from being 5'8 at 22, to being 6'0 these days?
