George Michael Should Have Known Better Than to Use the Loo

Posted by Emily Farris

 

Poor George Michael. Perhaps he needs to start wearing adult diapers so he can steer clear of bathrooms... and law enforcement. The singer was arrested over the weekend, yet again, in a bathroom. 

Ten years ago, he was famously arrested for soliciting a member of the LAPD in a bathroom and on Friday, Michael was busted in the loo of a London club after an attendant suspected (er, witnessed) his drug use and tipped of the cops. 

"We can confirm a 45-year-old man was arrested in the Hampstead Heath area on the 19th of September on the suspicion of possessing drugs," a Scotland Yard spokesman said. "He was taken to a North London police station where he received a caution and was released with no further action. The caution was for the possession of Class A and Class C drugs, cocaine and cannabis."

The police may have let him off easy, but Michael seems to be punishing himself.

"In a strange way I've spent the last 15 to 20 years trying to derail my own career, but it never seems to suffer," he said. "I suffer like crazy. I've suffered bereavements and public humiliations, but my career always seems to right itself like a plastic duck in the bath."

Hang in there GM. We're waiting with bated breath for your forthcoming autobiography, that we'll most likely read, yes, in the bathroom.
