The famous singer George Michael stated that he might decide to leave Britain. Michael said that he might be constrained to do this by the close and continual attention that the British media has been paying to his troubled private life.

Although he is a popular and worldwide successful singer, George Michael admitted he has been addicted to (prescription) drugs and alcohol. He even said that, in his case, marijuana is less harmful than alcohol. The singer blamed all this mess from his private life to his mother’s death, which happened about ten years ago.

During a talk show from Saturday, the singer said that he was seriously thinking whether the love for his country was keeping him “somewhere which is not good� for him. The strange case of singer Michael and his problem is indeed strange, if one tries to be rational and to ask the right question: why won’t Michael do something about his daily mess? It could really change his life and then the British media would have to praise him!

George Michael has been lately involved in a trial because the police found him slumped near his car, being under drugs influence. The singer hasn’t been sentenced yet, but he pleaded guilty and said he was tired and also under the influence of prescription drugs.

Although the singer seems ashamed by his problems, he also seems not to think to the proper solution. He owns houses both in London and Dallas, Texas. So in stead of abandoning his bad habits, the singer seems to desire to simply leave his beloved country and be high somewhere else in the U.S.
