Which artist was half of the English pop duo Wham!
before launching a successful solo career?

with his childhood friend Andrew Ridgeley.
The song topped Billboards Hot 100 chart for eight weeks in 1983.
In 1983, Michael Jackson performed Billie Jean on the TV specialMotown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever.

The song originally belonged to musician Robert Hazard, who recorded it as a demo in 1979.
