George Michael to Sue
According to the BBC,
George Michael says he is to take legal action against a man who claimed
he had a gay encounter with the pop star.
George Michael told BBC News 24: "I'm suing the individual involved
who I have never, ever seen, let alone wanted to have any kind of sexual
encounter with, and I'm currently investigating suing the secondary sources
of libel."
He said those sources had added to "Rupert Murdoch's story"
by saying his partner Kenny Goss had called off their civil partnership
ceremony but when he had received £1 million he had reconsidered having
the event.
"These are things that are not really acceptable," Michael
said.

Thanks to Ann for pointing us to the Richard and Judy transcript
on
Remarkable’s Buzzin’ Blog. There are a
ton of articles on how George and Kenny have called off the wedding,
but the transcript on Remarkable's Buzzin' Blog shows that this just isn't
true.
