Awards Death Legacy The Faith Tour

George Michael Tribute at MTV Music Video Awards 2026

George Michael fan opinions of the MTV Video Music Awards tribute to George Michael on Sunday, September 27, have been mostly negative, ranging from a few who appreciate George Michael getting honored to others complaining about performances and choices of singers. The tribute also trended on Threads, with mostly negative views of the performances.

The tribute, nearly ten years after George Michael’s death and nearly 40 year after the release of Faith, featured, Sombr, RAYE, Teddy Swims, and Adam Lambert.

Sombr Opens with “Faith” and “Father Figure”

Sombr, wearing a leather jacket originally worn by George Michael in the 1989 Diet Coke commercial, started the tribute out with “Faith” and “Father Figure.”

RAYE Sings “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me)”

While RAYE originally wanted to sing “Last Christmas” for the tribute and talked about how much her father liked George Michael, she ended up singing “I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me),” George Michael’s 1987 duet with Aretha Franklin, which went to #1 on the charts.

Teddy Swims Sings “Careless Whisper”

In what was thought to be the final performance of the tribute, Teddy Swims gave his rendition of “Careless Whisper,” calling it an “honor and privilege” to be involved in the tribute.

Adam Lambert’s Surprise Performance

Adam Lambert’s appearance was not announced before the awards show. Singing “Freedom ’90,” Lambert was joined by singer Meek and MNEK, as well as Sombr, RAYE, and Teddy Swims. His performance was widely considered the best performance of the night, with some fans going so far as to say that it should have been the only performance. There was no word whether this surprise performance was always planned or if it was in reaction to the outcry that a gay artist should have been included in the original lineup.

A Tribute Timed with New George Michael Releases

While the reference to the 40th anniversary of Faith in the press release for the VMAs is a bit confusing (as it’s only the 39th anniversary of Faith), the tribute lines up with the tenth anniversary of George Michael’s death.

As reported previously George Michael: The Faith Tour Live Album will be released on November 6, 2026 and George Michael: The Faith tour film will be released to theaters internationally on November 4 and in the U.S. on December 11, 2026.

It feels like it’s 1988 around here with the thrill of new promotions from George Michael: The Faith Tour. Fans have been treated to two surprises: the official release of the live audio of “Father Figure” and a newly issued video clip from the Paris 1988 rushes.

These promotional releases give us yet another glimpse into the restored concert film, which will premiere on November 6 in the UK and December 11 in the US and Canada.

A New Live Audio Release: “Father Figure” from Paris, 1988

The newly released live audio of “Father Figure” captures George Michael at his most soulful and commanding. Shirley Lewis, who sang on the original “Father Figure“, has posted the following statement on Instagram:

“We’re super excited about the release of this live album 👏
“It’s been a real honour to be involved in this project and we know you’ll love it!”

George Michael’s Singers –

The upcoming 18-track live album of The Faith Tour (#ad) will be released on November 6, 2026, and include the live version of “Father Figure.”

The newly released video clip offers the raw footage from the original 35mm rushes, unseen for decades. Considering how polished the video appears on the trailer, the video clip exhibits the rough condition of the original footage.

George Michael’s Faith Tour Concert Film Secures Worldwide Distribution Through Universal and Bleecker Street

Nearly four decades after George Michael’s Faith Tour defined an era of pop performance, his landmark 1988 concert is poised for a global cinematic revival. The newly restored film, George Michael: The Faith Tour, has been acquired for worldwide distribution through a major partnership between Universal Pictures Content Group and Bleecker Street’s Crosswalk division, signaling one of the most ambitious music‑film releases of 2026.

A Global Partnership Built on Legacy

Under the deal, Universal Pictures Content Group will oversee international distribution, while Bleecker Street handles North American theatrical release through its event‑cinema arm, Crosswalk.

Executives from both companies describe the project as a milestone in music‑film distribution. According to Variety, Helen Parker, Executive Vice President and Managing Director of Universal Pictures Content Group, called George’s performance “a magnetic force of charisma and connection with the audience.” Kent Sanderson, CEO of Bleecker Street, emphasized that the Faith Tour represents George “at the height of his creative and cultural power.”

Restoration Meets Modern Exhibition

The concert film, originally captured on 35mm film with 14 cameras, has undergone a meticulous restoration led by George Michael Entertainment, Mercury Studios, and Globe Originals. The remastering process revives the original cinematic texture while adapting it for premium theatrical formats, including IMAX early‑access screenings in select cities.

Opening with “Finding Faith”

The film begins with Finding Faith, a short directed by Mary McCartney, featuring unheard interview audio, unseen Herb Ritts photography, and behind‑the‑scenes footage from the Faith music video. This prelude sets the emotional tone for the concert experience, grounding the film in George’s voice and creative vision.

A Coordinated Global Rollout

The worldwide release will coincide with the launch of “The Faith Tour” live album, produced by Sony Music Entertainment and George Michael Entertainment. The album features 18 remastered tracks from George’s solo and Wham! catalog, creating a unified campaign across film, music, and digital platforms.

Preserving a Cultural Icon

For longtime fans, the film is a long‑awaited restoration of one of George Michael’s most defining live moments. For new audiences, it’s an introduction to an artist whose influence continues to shape pop, soul, and performance art worldwide.
