Support George Michael's fresh start with Choose Life T-shirt

11/10/2010

George Michael has been released from prison after serving half of an eight-week sentence for crashing his car while under the influence of cannabis.

Speaking outside his home in north London, he told reporters: "I'm coming out here on my own so that you'll realise I just want to start again."

He added he was going to try and stop running from the press and joked "you'll get sick of me".

The former Wham singer - famed for hits including Careless Whisper and Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go - was found slumped at the wheel of his Range Rover after it smashed into a branch of Snappy Snaps in north London in July.

Michael started his sentence in Pentonville prison in north London, but was moved to the category C Highpoint facility in Suffolk.

Fans of the singer may wish to lend support to his fresh start by sporting a Choose Life T-shirt in his honour.
