Andrew was my neighbor in Monte Carlo, back in the 80's. We lived in the same building. I rode in the lift with him several times. Nice, down to earth guy. Funny thing, I had no idea WHO he was until someone told me, lol!

[@klauspendolo1393]

Diane Moore wow, crazy . Expecially a girl who had no idea who Wham!s Andrew Ridgeley was, maybe it was not your kind of music. Which building was it ?

[@christyread3526]

You are so lucky! I have loved him dearly since I was 12!

[@whamtasticedits2831]

[@Beccahhxxx]

Andrew is absolutely gorgeous ;) xx

[@robertociabattini34]

Rightly Andrew said "George left In his songs for us in the transcendent beauty of his voice and poetic expression of her soul, the best of himself".Andrew, the embrace of George to you at the Wembley stadium is true and touching, really wanted to love you.George, when you lived your music, your voice was afraid to be won, now that you're dead, afraid of being exceeded.

Worth watching to hear Andrew 😍

Note to self: firing ranges make horrible interview locations

[@christyread3526]

Boom shakalashakala Chiccaboom, I 'd of have to shot participants if I was there😆

[@Cherieamour66]

I had the biggest crush on him as a little girl 😍

[@user-ly8nf4ir2d]

He is ugly! really!

[@pamdavis00]

he is ugly, and talentless...if it wasn't for George Michael this bafoon would be a nobody then like he is now!

[@daniellemorrisson7400]

Jealousy is ugly

[@user-rz9hm9qy8f]

That gorgeous smile 🌹

[@supremeobliterator]

Thnak you very much for this interview

[@yoya4766]

He's more articulate here than in recent interviews. I think people were far better spoken back then. Everything now is dumbed down.

[@miqueln1996]

He's got a sick polo there

[@missalmond]

i think he's so cute lol

[@user-ly8nf4ir2d]

George Michael is cute! not him!

[@summerferrett2113]

@@user-ly8nf4ir2d they both are !

[@RocStarr913]

Agreed, if it wasn't for Andrew, there'd be no Wham! or George Michael for that matter.

[@deborrahgoodman196]

ANDREW REALLY HAD A GREAT LIFE AFTER WHAM. AND I'M SO GLAD HE DID. I'M QUITE SURE HE AND GEORGE HAD A FEW UP AND DOWNS ABOUT THE SPLIT. BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT WAS VERY SERIOUS. THE KI D OF PERSON GEORGE WAS, I'M SURE HE MADE SURE HIS FRIEND WAS ALRIGHT.

[@christyread3526]

"Euforic" that's the effect Andy has on me, but this interview makes his love like a drive by, ping ping ping ping ping ping!😎shout out Ethan on Being Erica

[@christyread3526]

😍

[@marketingmajor8126]

His nose is so much different than when they first started. He originally had a big ridge or lump in the bridge of his nose, like a roman type nose, but at some point that went away lol.

[@aprilgosa6315]

He had his nose done he admitted it back then

[@aprilgosa6315]

in 84

[@genesis3790]

marketing major “went away “ obviously got a surgery. why point it out when its so obvious

[@christyread3526]

Both, handsome, it's all in his book, interesting story.

[@sainttrunks1982]

Andrew looks just like Richard Coca in this video #GoogleHim

[@donnabrown9602]

As much as I like Andrew. There would be no WHAM without George Michael. He wrote, produced & arranged all Wham's music. GM even gives Andrew credit for writing Careless Whisper with him, when GM wrote it while on a bus. People should look at some GM studio videos. Just because Andrew called GM up in 1979 to say it's now or never, doesn't mean Andrew was WHAM. The same with fashion. GM stated in an interview that he was given the Go gloves in the Go-Go video. Again there is a video that shows them shopping for clothes. Also Andrew was the one who left school early, and nothing musically happened. He calls a GM & convinces him to quit school. Seven months later, they have a recording contract. And GM is a natural dancer, whereas Andrew never really looked that comfortable. GM may have not had a good self image. But was confident in his musicianship. Thank goodness GM was a good friend to Andrew, so Andrew could retire with grace, as Andrew once said in an interview in 1984.

[@patmath2506]

donna brown I like Andrew too you are mostly right GM was the gifted one in the group, beautiful singer, natural dancer he d got a lot of soul music in him. Andrew was the confident one since it was documented that GM had a lot of insecurities. Wham was both of them without Andrew Wham wouldn't probably have existed and we could say the same thing for George

[@SuzLa1]

Not sure if you made that up in your head. They were friends in school and had been in bands since then. They're all still friends apart from Andros who tried to sell George's things and sell stories. David Austin is another school friend. Andrew brought Shirley to the band. They were young and appealed to teenagers. They were more about being young and having fun. They didn't care about mature plans or songwriting. If it wasn't for Andrew they wouldn't have had the same attention and fans for their age group

[@aprildannette9820]

Andrew was the muse Andrew kept George inspired and WHAM! was both of them the concept was two young guys having fun it would not work without both of them

[@aprildannette9820]

George has always said had he not met Andrew he would have ended up a banker or accountant LOL

[@aprildannette9820]

George kept putting it off till after he finished school he did not wanna disappoint his parents George has said many times has he not met Andrew he might have been a boring banker or something LOL They were both great friends to each other George said Andrew shaped his life he loved Andrew very much

[@migueloneto81]

Where they a couple?

[@matthewfranjkovic8274]

No, they were not - Andrew is not gay, and they had known each other for many years since they had met at school

[@dnlbarbier]

Horrible place for an interview!

[@christyread3526]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😆❤️

[@user-ly8nf4ir2d]

He is ugly! I don t understand!

[@deborrahgoodman196]

I DON'T THINK HIS VOICE WAS AFRAID OF ANYTHING. GEORGE WAS VERY MUCH SO CONFIDENT IN HIS VOICE HIS VOICE TOOK HIM TO A VERY FAR PLACE. EVEN WHEN HE WAS WITH WHAM. I GIVE PROPS TO ANDREW FOR PUSHING GEORGE TO HELP THEM CREATE THE DUO WHAM. SOMETIME YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE POSITIVE BEFORE YOU GO MAKING JUDGEMENTS ABOUT THING YOU ARE UNCERTAIN ABOUT.

[@sylvia4268]

Fuori normale quant' e' buono!

[@eoinmurphy210]

nice fella, but he was as good at music as he was at motor racing,a bit like ringo

[@aprildannette9820]

Andrew was having fun can't fault him and he is talented
