George Michael was sentenced to 8 weeks of jail for driving under the influence of weed on July 4th and crashing into a photo store today in London. According to the Daily Mail, “Michael will serve four weeks in prison and spend the rest on licence. He was also banned from driving for five years, fined £1,250 and ordered to pay £100 in costs.”
Now that he has been banned from driving for 5 years, the streets of London are safe to be on again.
It seems the only way George Michael can have a hit these days is by hitting something with his car. The Bad Boys singer was arrested again on suspicion of causing a one car accident, and according to ITN this time he hit a store front on Sunday. As we can remember this is not the first time he has allegedly hit something with a car, last year he was arrested on suspicion of smashing into a car. And back in 2007 his license was suspended for 2 years when his was found driving while intoxicated.
Part of me wants them to take away his license permanently for the safety of inanimate objects, but the other part of me likes hearing what he will next!
George Michael just got his driver’s license back after a 2 year suspension and what does he does? He gets into another car accident and according to The Sun he was arrested afterwards for suspicion of being under the influence, but he was released and not charged. Here is what the guy who George Michael reportedly hit told The Sun.
Shocked George climbed out of the wreck and tried to beg a lift in Lawrie’s cab.
Lawrie of Middlesbrough, said: “I was driving at 45mph in the inside lane when I saw a car come speeding up behind me, its lights on full beam.
“It must have been doing about 100mph and was weaving all over the place as if it was overtaking and undertaking. It smashed into the back of my cab and I felt a hell of a thump.
“His car went spinning across the outside lane and into the central barrier before bouncing back into my cab. He then hit the barrier again.”
“There was no movement from his car for what seemed like ten minutes. I was really shaken and thought someone had died.
“The Range Rover’s bonnet was sticking up, the front panels were missing and all the windows were shattered.
“There were big scrape marks along the full length of the vehicle. It was blocking the road.
“Eventually the guy got out of his car. He came over to my cab and asked if I had stopped to give him a lift. I was stunned.
“He was absolutely not with it, so I told him no. But he insisted and came around the other side of the truck and tried to get in the passenger door.
“When it finally dawned on him that I wouldn’t give in, he walked off down the verge.
George Michael tested negative for drugs and that was released.
Is it wrong for me to make a joke and say about time George Michael had another hit since his last albums haven’t done that well?
George Michael was arrested in a London public bathroom for alleged drug possesion according to the BBC.
"A 45-year-old man was arrested on 19 September on suspicion of possession of drugs in the Hampstead Heath area," a Metropolitan Police spokesman said.
The singer was taken to a police station and given the caution for possessing class A and class C drugs.
You would think by now that George Michael would have learned that public bathrooms and him don't go well together!
Before George Michael embarks on his first tour of North America in 17 years he will be back on our TV tonight on ABC’s Eli Stone at 10p. In the premiere episode of the show, Eli Stone’s first visions were of George Michael, so that is why he is wondering if George Michael is really real when he actually meets him.
I can’t wait to see the “real” George Michael on tonight’s episode of Eli Stone at 10p on ABC. It looks freaking hysterical!
BTW on a George Michael note his 2-disc CD TwentyFive is out on Tuesday (my birthday) which is a greatest hits with some never-before-released duets with the likes of Paul McCartney and 6 new songs. Tickets for his North American tour go on sale on April 6th and I will be online trying to get tickets to see him sing some of my favorite songs live!!!
