George Michael 'had drugs in car'

LONDON, England (Reuters) -- Pop star George Michael has been arrested and cautioned after being found once again slumped over the wheel of his car in London and in possession of cannabis, British media said on Monday.

The Sun tabloid splashed the story that Michael had been arrested across its front page. It was his fourth motoring incident in eight months, including three involving him being asleep at the wheel, the newspaper said.

A police spokesman said a 43-year-old man was taken into custody on Sunday, cautioned by police for having an illegal drug on him and released on bail pending inquiries on being unfit to drive.

"At about 3.22 am (0222 GMT) on Sunday morning officers were informed of a stationary vehicle with a driver inside causing an obstruction" in north London, the spokesman said, declining to confirm the identity of the driver as a matter of routine.

He was taken briefly to hospital as a precautionary measure.

The singer's partner, Kenny Goss, told The Sun that Michael had nothing to say. "He's fine and I've got him a McDonald's," he said.

In February, Michael was arrested on suspicion of possessing drugs and admitted it had been his "own stupid fault."

The musician has sold more than 80 million records throughout his career and enjoyed as much fame as a solo artist as he did as frontman of the band Wham!.

Michael is no stranger to controversy. He was arrested in April 1998 for engaging in a "lewd act" in a public toilet in Los Angeles, after which he ended years of speculation over his sexuality by announcing that he was gay.

The creator of hits including "Last Christmas" and "Careless Whisper" wrote a song "Outside" and based the accompanying video on the infamous public restroom incident.

I'm sorry, but it's about time, someone took him in hand before he does himself or someone else an injury. You can only go on doing this sort of thing and get away with it for so long before everyone gets a bit cheesed off. C'mon George get a grip man and sort yourself out.
where's Elton when you need him??

Dude needs a serious intervention. Where's Geri Halliwell when you need her?

Such a great talent and he does this to ruin his life

I hope his family does an intervention and get him some help before he hurts other people. He definitely is crying out for help if he constantly does stupid stuff like this in public.

Elton, Geri and the family...anybody. this guy needs to be sorted. he's meant to be on tour soon, isn't he?

I wonder what Kenny thinks of George's antics. He puts up with far more then I would.

Didn't he just try to have a comeback and it totally flopped and got scathing reviews?

Well, I totally and utterly hate his music to the bones, but I must say, he is THE DUDE!

Caught with d*ck and joint in his mouth. Impressive.
