George Michael jets off to Africa

Singer is keen to see lion cubs on safari

George Michael is enjoying a holiday in Africa with partner Kenny Goss.

The singer was cautioned for possessing class A and class C drugs last Friday.

And insiders reckon he needs time away from the spotlight to get his life back on track.

‘Kenny booked the holiday weeks ago,' an insider tells the Daily Mirror. 'George was particularly keen to see lion cubs.

'He was determined to see the Big Five - buffalo, elephant, lion, leopard and rhino.

‘They're doing the whole open jeep thing, going out with a tracker and a guide.

'In Africa, no one hassles George - he's treated just like any other tourist.’

In 1998, George, 45, was arrested for lewd conduct in a public toilet in California.

And in May 2007 he was given a two-year ban after pleading guilty to driving while under the influence of drugs.

He is set to perform at an AIDS concert in Texas this month.

George Michael flees UK

George Michael has fled the UK after being arrested for drug possession.

The 'Faith' singer left his £5 million mansion with partner Kenny Goss carrying six suitcases before heading to London Luton Airport last night (23.09.08).

It is believed the 45-year-old star is on his way to his favourite retreat in the South of France, but George's publicist could not confirm his destination, saying: "We don't know where he is going."

An onlooker said: "They looked like they were going away for some time judging by all the luggage they were carrying."

George - who was famously arrested for engaging in a lewd act in a Los Angeles public toilet in 1998 - was found in possession of crack cocaine and marijuana on Friday last week (19.09.08) after a public toilet attendant tipped off police.

But officers decided to let him off with a warning after he "showed remorse" and said further charges would ruin his career.

He later pleaded to his fans for forgiveness, saying in a statement: "I want to apologise to my fans for screwing up again, and to promise them I'll sort myself out. And to say sorry to everybody else, just for boring them."

Meanwhile, singer Boy George - who has also battled drug addiction - has expressed his sympathy with the star.

He said: "I'm sober now and don't drink or take drugs, and I can see that it's chaotic and miserable.

"If I was going to give him any advice I would say he he's very lucky to do what he does and get paid for it.

"He needs to get a perspective and get away from drugs and get clean."
