SONY to George Michael: Clean Up Your Act
SONY executives have begun to lose 'faith' in George Michael since his latest trip down the stoner highway over the weekend. Word from the studio is that the suits have reportedly told George to be more careful on his cannabis-driven cottaging escapades. Said a source at the label to thisislondon.com:
"George seems to be getting more and more unpredictable. He is drawing attention to himself by his increasingly erratic behaviour. He is an adult and free to behave how he likes, but he must remember that the more indiscreet he is, the more he will be caught out. That is twice now he has been found slumped unconscious behind the wheel. He has also been photographed coming out of the woods with a grey-haired stranger in the middle of the night after some dodgy sexual encounter. None of this looks very good to his fans. He just doesn't appear to care what people think of him - it's exasperating. We're really banking on this comeback being a great success - and to be fair ticket sales have been phenomenal. But I'm not sure how much more of this fans can take. It is now at a point where we are going to have to warn him that he must start carrying on more responsibly or else we will have to seriously consider his future with us."

What a shame this guy is so self destructive. It won't stop until we see an obituary, and I gather that will be before the year is out.

First Lohan and now this. I can't get over how the commercial entertainment honchos are trying to hawk morality. Now the stars' behavior is supposed to be as bad as their lame projects! They catch on fast.

People, George ain't going to end up in the obits. It's been totally blown out of proportion. The poor guy can't pop out to walk the dog without being hounded (no pun intended). The press love him because he is cannon fodder and because he is very upfront and honest about his personal life. Now he has declared war on the press, they love it even more; as far as they're concerned its a great money spinning saga that isn't about to end anytime soon - if they have anyhting to do with it...
