George Michael Tells All About His Drug Use, Crusing For Sex With Strangers
George Michael recently spilled all kinds of dirty beans to UK magazine The Guardian, sharing VERY personal and candid details about his sex life, run-ins with the police, and drug use. The former Wham front man shared information about his private life, including:
- Daily marijuana use, including smoking “seven or eight spliffs a day” instead of the “25″ he used to smoke daily!
- His habit of cruising for gay sex with strangers at Hampstead Heath, a northern suburb of London known as a meeting place for gay encounters, and where George was arrested last year in a public toilet (he was also in possession of crack at the time he was arrested).
According to the Huffington Post, George’s interview went even further:
The 46-year-old defended ‘cottaging’ on the Heath, saying it was ‘nicer’ than picking up men in bars.
‘The handful of times a year it’s bloody warm enough, I’ll do it. I’ll do it on a nice summer evening. Quite often there are campfires up there,’ he said.
‘It’s a much nicer place to get some quick and honest sex than standing in a bar, E’d off your tits (high on ecstasy) shouting at somebody and hoping they want the same thing as you do in bed.’
Asked why he cruises for sex when he could get any gay man he wanted, George replied: ‘I do get anyone I want. But I like a bit of everything. I have friends up there, I have a laugh.’
George also shared details about celebrity friends who have attempted or would like to intervene on his behalf. But apparently George isn’t too pleased with their friendly advice. He told The Guardian:
‘Geri [Halliwell] told Kenny [George's long-term romantic partner] that Bono, having spoken to Elton, had approached Geri to say, “What can we do for George?”
‘This is what I have to deal with because I don’t want to be part of that social clique. All I’d have to do to stop it is hang out in London, so people realise I don’t look close to death.’
‘Elton lives on that. He will not be happy until I bang on his door in the middle of the night saying, ‘Please, please, help me, Elton. Take me to rehab.’ It’s not going to happen.
‘Elton just needs to shut his mouth and get on with his own life. Look, if people choose to believe that I’m sitting here in my ivory tower, Howard Hughesing myself with long fingernails and loads of drugs, then I can’t do anything about that, can I?’
‘People want to see me as tragic with all the cottaging and drug-taking… those things are not what most people aspire to, and I think it removes people’s envy to see your weaknesses.
‘I don’t even see them as weaknesses any more. It’s just who I am.’
Whoa! What’s going on with George? It’s hard to see such a talent spending his life engaging in risky behaviors and shutting himself off from the world.
