An icon of pop music and an indissociable artist of the 1980s, George Michael was able to find the melodies and words of his time like few others by speaking to an entire generation and collaborating with the greatest like Aretha Franklin or Elton John.

32 years after his first release, Last Christmas resonates with melancholy during this holiday season. All those who have danced on his successes, there are many, learn of his early disappearance with deep sadness.

Audrey Azoulay, Minister of Culture and Communication, sends her condolences to her family and loved ones.
