Michael Jackson Smuggles Painkillers From U.S

Michael Jackson is facing up to 20 years in prison for alleged drug trafficking.

The troubled singer is said to have a 40 pills-a-day habit, and has been accused of illegally importing anti-depressants and painkillers from the US to his hideaway in Bahrain.

The superstar - who was cleared of sex abuse in June - also faces allegations the drugs were obtained with fake prescriptions.

Police are investigating claims by former aides of the star who say the 47-year-old is hooked on pills.

They say he takes around 40 tablets a day and was even seen falling flat on his face after injecting himself with a mystery substance.

The investigation centres around a huge stash of drugs found at the star's Neverland ranch when police were probing the child sex claims made against Jackson in 2003.

Traces of cocaine were also found on the singer's underwear during the swoop.

The probe is being run by district attorney Tom Sneddon - who is said to be angry he failed to convict Jackson on child sex charges in the summer.

A source close to the Jackson family is quoted in Britain's The Sun newspaper as saying: "Michael would fight this in court. But none of us know if he could cope with another investigation.

"Sneddon is obsessed with bringing him down. This is not justice, it's a witch hunt."

George Michael Set To Marry Partner

George Michael is set to marry partner Kenny Goss - but has no plans to be faithful. The 47-year-old star and his boyfriend hope to wed early next year in a "small, private ceremony".

The couple are looking forward to their upcoming nuptials but the singer hinted the usual vows may not apply.

He said: "Gay relationships are a bit different. I'm sure we'll be allowed to roam if we want to. But we love each other dearly."

The 'Fast Love' singer was speaking at a screening of his new documentary, 'George Michael: A Different Story'.

He added: "I want Kenny to have his rights just as I want mine. "It's wonderful that gay marriages will become legal and it is long overdue."

Meanwhile, the British pop star has laughed off rumours of a Wham! comeback tour, insisting his former bandmate Andrew Ridgeley would never agree to perform again.

Despite the recent reunions of fellow 80s bands, including Duran Duran and Tears For Fears, Michael insists Wham! will not be returning to the stage.

He said: "Oh please... there's nothing big planned on that just yet. "Even if I wanted to do it, Andrew would never do it. I'm afraid I can't get into those small tennis shorts anymore."



George Michael brought us the 80's hit "I Want Your Sex." You can't expect him to be faithful in real life.

Come on
I want your sex
Come on, I want your sex
That’s right, all night
Oh, I want your sex
I want your...sex

Sexy baby’s

Then in 1998 George Michael was arrested in a public park's bathroom by an undercover police officer claiming Michael pleasured himself.
