editGeorge is releasing a music and dance DVD on 1 December 2008.[1] It will include 5 backing dancers who won a competition on George's official Bebo; George will also be dancing in a recently decided song - 'HEADZ UP'.homepage
Official logo
editGeorge held a competition in which contenders had to come up with an official logo for George to use, with George choosing the winner himself. It offered the winner the chance to meet George Sampson, an Apple Macbook with Photoshop installed, use of the logo on his upcoming posters, music DVDs and official websites and a signed poster of the logo. The competition entries were to be in by the 14th July 2008 at midday and the winner was to be posted as soon as George had time to look through the entries.[2] On 6th November 2008 the results were announced on the George Sampson website.
