Tony Parsons’s Perspective

Amazon Ad

Tony Parsons, the author of the official George Michael biography Bare (Amazon Ad), wrote the following about George Michael in today’s Mirror: The boy George Michael once was is still there, buried under the sleaze.

Tony Parsons writes:

“The young George Michael was just such a lovely guy. He could sing, he could write great songs and he could even dance (a little bit).

“In private he was always, always great company – kind and generous, warm and funny. The boy he was once is still in there, buried under all the middle-aged sleaze and disappointment.”

Having written George Michael’s biography and having known George Michael since the days of Wham!, Tony Parsons has a perspective of the path George Michael took in his life.

George Michael Allegedly Arrested

Amazon Ad

Quoted from George Michael ‘arrested over drugs’:

George Michael has been arrested in north London public toilets for possession of drugs, a newspaper has reported.

The claims have been made in the Sunday People and a spokesman for the Met Police confirmed an arrest was made.

He said: “I can confirm that a 45-year-old man was arrested on September 19 on suspicion of possession of drugs in the Hampstead Heath area.

“He was taken to a north London police station where he received a caution for possession of class A and class C drugs.”

Also, look at George Michael in Class A drug arrest on Hampstead Heath:

George Michael has been cautioned for drug possession after being arrested at a notorious meeting place for gay men.

The 45-year-old pop star was caught with a small amount of cannabis and a Class A drug, possibly cocaine or Ecstasy, on Hampstead Heath in North London.

It is the fourth time in three years that the pop star has been arrested on drugs charges but until now he has been caught only with so-called soft drugs such as cannabis.

Temporary Leave of Absence

As of today, I will be on what I think is best described as a temporary leave of absence from the site.  I should be back to a regular posting schedule in 2009.  There hasn’t been anything to post recently so I don’t think you’ll see much of a difference.

If there is something of major importance (new tour dates, new CD), please put “URGENT” in the subject of your e-mail, and I will post it as soon as I can.  Please do not write to me about anything that is unrelated to new George Michael news; you will not receive a response.

Thank you.

Eli Stone Starter Kit

Watch “Eli Stone” with George Michael
Amazon Ad

ABC has condensed their primetime shows into 4-minute recaps that get you caught up on everything you need to know before the new season begins.

Unfortunately, the Eli Stone Starter Kit has been removed since this article was originally published.

Eli Stone is the story of a lawyer who suddenly starts to have hallucinations … of George Michael. It starts out with George Michael singing “Faith” on his coffee table. What’s so fun about the first season of this television show is that George Michael makes multiple appearances. All of the show titles are George Michael or Wham! songs, and many of the musical numbers are also George Michael songs.

Eli Stone stars Jonny Lee Miller, Natasha Henstridge, Loretta Devine, Matt Letscher, Sam Jaeger, and Victor Garber.

The DVD for the first season of Eli Stone (Amazon Ad) is currently available.
