George Michael on Eli Stone

In case you missed it or just want to watch the episode over and over again, ABC has the entire episode available online.

The official site finally has the links working for all the tour news. (How difficult is that to check?) A number of offers for fan club members only are available for pre-sale tickets.  I hope it works out for all of you buying tickets.  My experiences with FanFire have been dreadful and my opinion won’t change until I get the t-shirt I’ve been waiting eight months for.

Okay, you’ve just gotta love an article that lists George Michael as one of the reasons to watch “Eli Stone.”

Nine reasons Eli Stone keeps getting better

8. George Michael — C’mon, who could be better? He was a huge hit, then a scandal, then a has-been, and now, the guy has the good humor to poke fun at himself with a recurring role on this show. What a good sport; he joins the ranks of Alec Baldwin and Rob Lowe, two other actors who can make fun of themselves with style.

Here are just a few of the many articles on George Michael’s North American Tour:

The ABC site has added two clips of George Michael’s role as himself on “Eli Stone.”

Entertainment Weekly has a new interview with George Michael about his appearances on “Eli Stone.”  You can read more about it in George Michael Has Faith in ‘Eli Stone’ .

TwentyFive available in the U.S.If you read this site, you’re probably a dedicated George Michael fan who bought TwentyFive ages ago when it was released in the U.K. and practically everywhere … except the United States.  Yes, we deprived U.S. fans finally will be able to buy TwentyFive in the U.S. on April 1. (Is that a joke?)

Here’s the description from the official site:

George’s European chart-topping retrospective, TwentyFive, is set for release in the United States on April 1st. This will be his first U.S. release since his 2004 studio album, Patience. TwentyFive, which includes his biggest smash hits, is the comprehensive George Michael collection, spanning his entire music career — from George’s early hits with Wham!, through his brilliant solo career that showcases his singing and songwriting genius. The album features six new songs, including a duet with Mary J. Blige, a duet with Paul McCartney, and a newly recorded single from his hit tv series, Eli Stone.

This article has additional information on George Michael’s next appearance on “Eli Stone.”

When a teenaged girl is expelled for playing George Michael’s “I Want Your Sex” during an abstinence education assembly at school, the pop superstar (playing himself) retains Eli’s legal counsel on the girl’s behalf, THURSDAY, MARCH 27 (10:02-11:00 p.m., ET), on ABC’s “Eli Stone.”

I’m a little confused … I had read that George Michael was supposed to appear in the seventh episode of “Eli Stone,” which is on Thursday.  Now I’m reading that George Michael will appear as a guest star on the March 27 episode:

Michael will appear in an episode in which a teen is expelled for playing his song “I Want Your Sex” during an abstinence education assembly at school; he will retain Eli’s legal counsel on the girl’s behalf, the network said.

I’m sorry if I got all your hopes up that George Michael would be on this week!

(Update … Duh, George Michael is guest starring on the 13th and 27th.  I’ve been having a bad month so I hope all of you forgive me for my stupidity.)

The Goss-Michael Foundation has recently announced one contest and three scholarship opportunities for high school student artists. You can read more about it here.

Today, I was reading about Maxell discontinuing products at Maxell to Discontinue Its Line of Infamous Discs, and I have to say that the accompanying link to YouTube with the Maxell Wham! commercial just made me smile.

I’m sure you’ll all be excited to know that George Michael had a salad for dinner on Wednesday when he had dinner with Kenny in Dallas.  You can read more about it in George Michael roughs it.
