George Michael tries desperately to keep his name in the news!

British singer George Michael was arrested on Sunday on suspicion of possessing drugs after he was found slumped in a car in central London, a police source said. Michael, 42, who has sold more than 80 million records worldwide during a 25-year career, was arrested in the Hyde Park area of the capital early on Sunday, the source said. A London police spokesman issued a statement saying a 42-year-old man had been held on suspicion of possessing Class C drugs, a group in British law that includes cannabis, tranquillizers and some painkillers.

What else is George Michael supposed to do right about now? He's 42 so he's clearly too old for cocaine and just the right age for painkillers and tranquillizers. He's already had a career with his band, WHAM!, which was like decades ago. The he had that solo career which did rather well, making him one of the ten richest musicians in England or something. Even Princess Diana wanted his sex and she almost got it on a boat in St. Tropez...but then she died so that royal relationship never worked out. Shortly thereafter he engaged in that whole "lewd act" in the public bathroom thing. Then he told everyone he was gay--SURPRISE! like we couldn't tell when he was jitterbugging into our brain back in 1984. I was like four and didn't even know what gay was but I still knew he was gay. Somewhere along the line he had some surgery making him look a little more David Gest-ish rather than that special someone you wanted to wake up before you go go. He was supposed to get married last year to Kenny Goss but then that didn't work out for one reason or another so he ending up slumped over in a car this weekend with some weed, painkillers and tranquillizers. This seems just about right if he's feels it's time to do some kind of drug-induced public humiliation thing.
