who's in george michael's freedom video
Christy Turlington Linda Evangelista Tatjana Patitz Naomi Campbell Cindy Crawford
title: Freedom! '90 text: major hit and peaked at number 8 on the United States "Billboard" Hot 100. The song refers to Michael's past success with Wham!, yet also shows a new side of himself as a new man, who is more cynical about the music business than he had been before. Michael refused to appear in the video and allowed a group of supermodels to appear instead. Michael performed this song, alongside his 2012 single "White Light", during the closing ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics. By 1990, Michael had grown weary of the pressures of fame, telling the "Los Angeles Times", "At title: George Michael text: That Day", "Freedom! '90", "Heal the Pain", and "Cowboys and Angels" (the latter being his only single not to chart in the UK top 40). "Freedom '90" was the second of only two of its singles to be supported by a music video (the other being the Michael-less "Praying for Time"). The song alludes to his struggles with his artistic identity, and prophesied his efforts shortly thereafter to end his recording contract with Sony Music. As if to prove the song's sentiment, Michael refused to appear in the video (directed by David Fincher), and instead recruited supermodels Naomi Campbell, Linda title: Tatjana Patitz text: Linda Evangelista, and Christy Turlington; the portrait of the five women is regarded as the cover that sparked the supermodel phenomenon of the 1990s, helping each woman attain global appeal.

'90" which was directed by David Fincher. Michael did not appear in the video; instead, each woman would lip-synch the song in Michael's place. Patitz and her co-stars were already top stars in the fashion world but were now gaining major recognition for title: Freedom (Beyoncé song) text: Beyoncé, Coffer and veteran hip hop record producer Just Blaze. Upon its release, "Freedom" managed to appear on various music charts. It peaked at number 35 in the US, on the "Billboard" Hot 100 and 40 in the UK. The song's music video is part of a one-hour film with the same title as its parent album, originally aired on HBO. Beyoncé performed the song live as part of the set list of The Formation World Tour (2016) and at the BET Awards 2016. It received a nomination for Best Rap/Sung Performance at the 2017 Grammy Awards. The song was title: Outside (George Michael song) text: for this keeper of an artist, who at last seems comfortable just having a little fun." The video, directed by Vaughan Arnell and filmed on 4 June 1998, was especially satirical. It features a police helicopter hovering over Los Angeles and shadowing a variety of people, gay and straight, kissing, having sex or engaging in foreplay, all in public. The scenes of public coupling are styled like real surveillance footage and interspersed with scenes of Michael and his dancers performing in a men's toilet. Michael is dressed as an LAPD police officer and clutching a nightstick, while the toilet is
