George Michael behind the wheel and ... Wham!
George Michael is back in the headlines after crashing his Range Rover into the back of a truck in southeast England on Friday. (Seriously, George? Just get a driver.)
His rep is telling the media that any reports that the former Wham! singer was drunk are just "rubbish."
Still, the truck driver told the Daily Mail newspaper on Saturday: "He seemed completely disorientated, like he had no idea what was going on. He looked totally dazed and even tried to climb into the cab of my lorry. He hit me so hard that it knocked my rear axle two feet up in the air."
Michael was arrested and later released by police with no charges filed.
