George Michael's 'high' days are over.

The singer has been handed down the verdict on a silver platter, and is looking at a slammer stint for DUI involving a road mishap.


Michael, 47, is sentenced to eight weeks in jail for driving under the influence of cannabis and crashing his vehicle.

If that wasn't enough, the former Wham! pop-star gets awarded a 1,250-pound fine by the Highbury Corner Magistrates Court in London, plus a five-year driving ban. That means hitching a ride, buddy.

The musician had crossed paths with the law back in July when he rammed his Range Rover into a branch of Snappy Snaps, leading to his arrest. Having a knack for controversy, Michael was also fined for 'engaging in a lewd act' in a California public toilet.

Despite the star's mega-blunder, fans were present outside the court today to show support, including 41-year-old die hard, Shelly Williams.

Says Williams, "I am here to show support, I have been a fan for 26 years-that's longer than a marriage."

Like try talking some sense into your idol, sweetie.
