It’s pretty clear that with the loss of George Michael the music industry has taken a real hit. This year we have lost Prince, David Bowie in the music department. Other legends like Muhammad  Ali, Alan Rickman , Alan Thicke, Gene Wilder, and Florence Henderson have all passed away as well.

Let’s be real, 2016 has been a dumpster fire of a year.

We need a good 2017, okay? I am throwing that into the universe.

Of course though, with George Michael passing away, celebrities took to Twitter and Facebook to mourn the loss of this legendary musician.

Had the pleasure of knowing George Michael in the 80s. Voice of an angel. Now he can sing for them.

I’ve been thinking about George Michael today, and the positive effect he’s had on this world. He was a brilliant artist, talented songwriter, inspiring performer, and did amazing things for the LGBTQ community. He will be missed, but his kind soul will never be forgotten. #RIPGeorgeMichael

I never told him (mainly because I thought I'd freak him out) but #georgemichael has always been such an influence on me. As a child, his was the first voice I could pick out of the sea of voices I heard on the radio. Before I knew anything about him, I knew his voice. As an adult, I cried when I saw him in concert. His songs and his voice helped to teach me how to sing. I will forever regret not letting him know…Thank you, George, for giving the world your gifts…may you rest in peace.
