Spoilers ahead: What follows dis-
cusses the ending of the new rom-com
“Last Christmas,” based on the Wham!
song and starring Emilia Clarke. Stop
reading now if you don’t want to know.
George Michaelis as omnipresent as
an Elf on the Shelf in “Last Christmas,”
the new romantic comedy (in theaters
now) based on his cherished holiday
standardand starring Emilia Clarke and
Henry Golding.
But, um, it’s a Wham! tune, so
where’s Andrew Ridgeley? In the song’s
1984 music video, after all, Ridgeley is
the guy who gets the girl famously pined
for in the heartsick lyrics (“Last year, I
gave you my heart / But the very next
day, you gave it away”).
American fans of the ’80s pop duo
might be forgiven if they don’t immedi-
ately spot Ridgeley in the film’s feel-


good final scene, in which Clarke,
dressed in a green velvet elf costume
and wrapped in a string of twinkling
lights, leads a group singalong of “Last
Christmas” at a homeless shelter’s holi-
day talent show. Ridgeley’s shaggy,
streaked hair and ear piercings are long
gone, but he remains a dapper dresser.
“Andrew Ridgeley was very much an
early part of it, because, of course, we
had to get his blessing,” says Emma
Thompson, who co-wrote and co-stars
in the film about a woman (Clarke)
struggling to get her life together after
surviving a major medical emergency.
“And he couldn’t have been nicer to ev-
eryone.”
Ridgeley, singing enthusiastically, is
seen seated next to Greg Wise, Thomp-
son’s husband and co-writer, but “I
didn’t recognize him when I first saw
him,” she confesses. “We were thrilled
to have him be a part of it.”
The movie is peppered with remind-

ers of Michael, who pops up on jukebox-
es and posters, and 15 of his songs are in
the soundtrack. The star gave his sup-
port to the project before he died on
Christmas Day in 2016, and director Paul

Feig (“Bridesmaids”) says “it was hugely
important” to give the fans a moment.
“I became very close friends with An-
drew over the course of this project,”
Feig says of Ridgeley, who has a new
memoir out: “Wham! George Michael &
Me.”“He’s the loveliest guy in the world.
We’ve had dinner a million times – he’s
become like my brother or something.
When that scene was coming up, I was
like, ‘Please, please, please, you have to
do this,’ and he was amenable to do it. I
just could not conceive of this movie
and not having Andrew in it.”
And for fans who blink and miss it?
“I hung on it long enough where you
go, ‘Oh, I think I’m supposed to know
who that is ...’ So if you don’t, then
they’re going to look him up and go, ‘Oh,
my gosh, it’s Andrew Ridgeley.’ And he
looks so great, too.
“He’s the most stylish guy,” Feig says.
“He’s the only guy who outdresses me.
How dare he!”
