Wham! Again
Tuesday,

George
Michael
and
Andrew
Ridgeley
are
to
reform
Wham!.
The
80s
pop
duo,
whose
hits
include
'Club
Tropicana'
and
'I'm
Your
Man',
are
reportedly
planning
to
fly
out
to
the
US
this
summer
to
start
recording
tracks
for
a
new
album,
with
the
possibility
of
a
tour
later.
George
made
his
wishes
for
a
reunion
known
last
year,
and
asked
Andrew
to
join
him
on
stage
at
his
solo
show
at
London's
Wembley
Arena
last
December.
However,
Andrew
pulled
out
at
the
last
minute
because
he
was
too
nervous.
A
source
said
at
the
time:
"Andrew
was
sick
with
nerves
at
the
thought
of
appearing
on
stage
after
all
these
years,
he
backed
out."
Wham! split in 1986 and performed their last concert, 'The Finale', at the now demolished Wembley Stadium, in London, in June of that year. George has since enjoyed a phenomenally successful solo career. His debut album 'Faith' sold over 20 million copies worldwide. Andrew took a short break from pop after the band split but has continued to write songs for other artists under various pseudonyms.
