George Michael Pleads Guilty To Cannabis Possession

George Michael has pleaded guilty to possessing cannabis and driving under the influence of drugs.

The former Wham! Star was arrested last month after he crashed into a photographic shop in Hampstead, London, causing extensive external damage.

The 47-year-old pleaded guilty to the offences during an appearance at Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court this morning (August 24), reports Sky News.

He has been given a six-month interim driving ban and will be sentenced at a later date.

The charges are the latest in a series of brushes with the law for the star, who only recently finished a two-year ban for drug driving.

Meanwhile, Michael is scheduled to reissue his debut solo album 'Faith' on September 27.

The album, originally released in 1987, will be available in multiple formats, including a Limited Editor Numbered Collectors box set.
