George Michael Once Secretly Donated £15k To 'A Deal Or No Deal' Contestant
Yesterday the world lost another superstar, as news broke that George Michael had passed away at the age of just 53.
The former Wham frontman and renowned solo artist has been eulogised by many on Twitter over the last few hours but one small story stuck out, which goes a long way in exemplifying his kindness.
While many of us know Richard Osman from the BBC quiz show Pointless, he actually previously worked as the producer for Deal or No Deal on Channel 4. Osman tweeted the lovely tale this morning.
A woman on 'Deal Or No Deal' told us she needed £15k for IVF treatment. George Michael secretly phoned the next day and gave her the £15k.

Elsewhere, many may not know that George Michael was actually involved in the genesis of Carpool Kareoke, when he and James Corden worked together on Comic Relief.
