Elton John pays tribute to ‘kindest, most generous man’
George Michael and Elton John
Los Angeles - Arab Today
Elton John says his late friend and fellow Brit George Michael was one of the best vocalists in the world.
John paid tribute to Michael during his Beats 1 Radio show Monday, calling him one of Britain’s “most brilliant songwriters.”
John and Michael famously collaborated on the 1991 version of John’s classic “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me. “But John says they had been friends for years before the duet. He says he knew Michael when he was the lead singer of Wham! and played at the band’s last concert at London’s Wembley Stadium in 1986.
John calls Michael “the kindest, most generous man.” He says he will miss Michael’s humanity most of all.
Michael died at his England home at age 53 on Dec. 25 last year.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home.

Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
