How George Michael"s First Great Love, Anselmo Feleppa, Showed Him "How to Live"


George Michael and his boyfriend! Джордж Майкл показал своего парня!

George Michael, who died suddenly on Sunday, had several loves throughout his life and it all startedwhen he met Anselmo Feleppa.

He was so distracting I actually avoided that end of the stage, Michael toldThe Huffington Postin 2009 about spotting Feleppa, a Brazilian designer, in the crowd at one of his concerts.

The two met up after the show in Michaels dressing room and their relationship was the first time Michael knew true love, he later revealed. Its very hard to be proud of your sexuality when it hasnt given you any joy, but once you have found somebody you really love its not so tough, he said.

Michael said Feleppa made himproud of his sexuality as a gay man. Hebroke down my Victorian restraint and really showed me how to live, how to relax, how to enjoy life, Michael said.

I was s******g around, but I had so little experience with men that my s*x life was so ridiculously inadequate for me, right until I met Anselmo really, he toldHuffington Post.He was the first person I had ever loved, and I discovered he loved me too.

Sadly, six months into their relationship, Feleppa discovered he was HIV positive.

Try to imagine that you fought with your own sexuality to the point that youve lost half of your twenties, and youve finally found a real love, and six months in its devastated, Michael recalled. In 1991 it was really terrifying news.

feleppasdeath in the early 1990scaused Michael to enter a state of depression, which he described asa deep black hole.

Michaels next serious relationship was with partner Kenny Goss, whom he dated for 13years. In 2006, Michael announced plans to marry Goss in a small ceremony.

I think well just do the formal legal thing and then well have a party, Michael said at the time on British talk show Parkinson. But no ones going to be getting into a dress! Neither of us has the body for it, you know.

However, the two never wed, and in 2011 Michael revealed at a concert that he and Goss had been broken up for over two years.

The truth is my love life has been a lot more turbulent than I have let on, he said during a performance at the Prague State Opera.

The Wham! singer also brieflydated actress Brooke Shields, though the actress said that they never had a sexual relationship.

He was so sweet to me, Shields wrote in her 2014 memoir,There Was a Little Girl. I was smitten just because he was so respectful and I didnt feel pressured. It all worked out. It was very enjoyable.

Michael was most recently linked to hairstylist Fadi Fawaz, though neither has spoken publicly about their alleged relationship.

George Michael and his boyfriend! Джордж Майкл показал своего парня!

George Michael"s partner described his heartbreak Monday at discovering the pop star had died beside him as they slept in bed.

ITs a xmas i will never forget finding your partner dead peacefully in bed first thing in the morning.. I will never stop missing you xx, Fadi Fawaz tweeted.

Fawaz, a celebrity hair stylist, has been linked to Michael for years but details of their relationship had been kept private.

The revelation about the circumstances of Michaels death at his home in Goring, England, came as it emerged that the singer had used his fortune to heal the pain of others without seeking fame for his charitable giving.

George Michael anonymously donated millions to charity

Numerous accounts of Michaels generosity emerged online as his millions of fans continued grieving his sudden death at age 53.

A woman on Deal Or No Deal told us she needed 15k ($18,000) for IVF treatment. George Michael secretly phoned the next day and gave her the 15k, British game show host Richard Osman tweeted.

Questions still lingered Monday about the exact cause of death.

Michaels manager said the pop icon had died of heart failure. A photo of Michael snapped in September showed the singer had gained a large amount of weight.

Police said they were treating the death as unexplained, but not suspicious.

At the same time, others also came forward with stories about Michaels giving ways.

British journalist Esther Rantzen, who founded the childrens charity Childline, told the Press Association that Michael donated millions to the organization and insisted on keeping it quiet.

For years now he has been the most extraordinarily generous philanthropist, Rantzen said.

Michael also supported the Terrence Higgins Trust for many years after losing his partner anselmo feleppa to HIV, a member of the organization revealed.

He also made smaller gestures that didnt depend on his millions.

George Michael worked anonymously at a homeless shelter I was volunteering at. Ive never told anyone, he asked we didnt. Thats who he was, Twitter user Emilyne Mondo wrote.

Journalist Sali Hughes tweeted, I wrote in a piece ages ago about a celeb Id worked with tipping a barmaid 5k because she was a student nurse in debt. Was George Michael.

The Grammy-winning pop star donated all royalties from his Wham! groups single Last Christmas/Everything She Wants to Ethiopian famine relief.

Earnings from Dont Let The Sun Go Down On Me, which he recorded in a duet with Elton John, went to AIDS hospice London Lighthouse and the Rainbow Trust childrens charity.
