I’ve had women come over to chat me up who were absolutely gorgeous, but if they fancy what they think you are, rather than you, then it‘s not a turn on. “Looks become less valuable when they’re far more available. Having put so much importance on looks when he was younger, to his surprise he discovered that they meant very little.

It was difficult to sort out who liked him and who liked his image.Īnd that changed his attitude towards women. And he admits that stardom brought about a problem that took a long time to cope with – women. When George talks about how much has happened to him, you tend to forget he’s only 24. Yet at the same time there’s never any danger of feeling claustrophobic or penned in, because we’re always going to be flying back to our different homes, wherever we may be.” “It’s the perfect kind of relationship because it means that the time we have together is very special, I make sure that when I’m with her I’ve got no other commitments so there are no distractions. “I never get to the point where I can’t cope because usually we’re not together for more than about a week, then she goes back to New York and we won’t see each other for another couple of weeks. I can even get quite snappy with Kathy it she’s been staying with me for a while. “That’s something I’m obviously going to have to change before I can settle down, because I can be very difficult to be with. I need to be on my own, I need to be able to shut myself off from everyone. I’m quite difficult to be with after a while. “That’s one of the reasons why I’ve never lived with a girl. I’m a very private person not just from the media but even people close to me. “I do love children and the idea of having them seems quite attractive, but I’m not sure that I’m much of a family man. I believe that marriage is for children, and that’s certainly not something I’m ready for. “I’ve no intention of getting married, not for a long time, at least five years. Yet even though he says he’s so happy being with Kathy, he is in no great rush to settle down. l can concentrate more on my career and the things that are important to me without having the distraction of looking for something.”

My relationship with Kathy has changed me a lot. “I believe that if you’re sleeping with lots of girls, you don’t develop much as a person. Meeting Kathy, and the relationship that they have, has merely served to reinforce his sentiments. Whatever his reputation, George insists that he’s felt this way for quite a time. You just go round and round circles of girls and it all leads absolutely nowhere.“ Promiscuity is a rather self-perpetuating game. “I’m sure that it’s a situation that very few men can really understand, because so few have the opportunity to have whatever women they want. In this job there’s no end of beautiful women if you want them, but in the end you learn that sex is just sex and it can never be anything more. She’s gorgeous looking but it’s really not very important because it’s always there, always available. “It wasn’t until we’d met several times and we started talking that I began to get interested in her and found myself enjoying her company. And because I get very involved in my work, I must admit that I didn’t notice her at all. Because of her work, she was quite used to meeting famous people, so she wasn’t impressed by that at all. “She felt my attitude was very standoffish and defensive. “Kathy didn’t like me much when she met me. It was something serious, something special and most important of all, something very different from anything else he’d known. Now there weren’t hundreds of girls, there was just her. But they didn’t count for much these days – these days there was Kathy.įor two years he’d been with Kathy Jeung, a New York make-up artist.

He shook his head: “We’re still great friends, and see each other all the time.” he says.Īnd then there were the girls. The line went that he and his old school friend and Wham! partner Andrew Ridgeley hated one another. That’s where the row stories had started.

Once he’d been selling Wham! Now he was marketing himself. But he’d got stuck in and now he was among the best. No-one had told him that being a musician meant being a salesman too. He wasn’t going to let it get to him, not now. It was a bit like a mechanic complaining about the oil and grease. So it was time to talk about rows and girls again and he rubbed his three day stubble and insisted that he didn’t mind. They made him more exciting, more interesting. No-one was interested that they were all in the past. That was the trouble being a pop star, particularly when all those things had happened. It was the only thing that anyone wanted to talk about. And she certainly made George Michael change his ways! By Simon Kinnersley She’s young and beautiful and envied by millions.
