Is there anything like credit crunch when there are crazy art lovers like George Michael? The famous “Careless Whisper” singer is going to pay a whopping £1 million for a 24-carat gold and diamond replica of his own face. This strange idea struck his mind when he saw sculptures on British TV show “The Dragons’ Stories,” a follow-up program to “Dragons’ Den.” A source revealed that George is very keen on getting a gold- and diamond-encrusted statue of himself. He loves the idea of having something so permanent. For your info, the 44-year-old singer, with his partner Kenny Goss, already owns the £50 million diamond-studded skull created by Damien Hirst. Hmm…I have no idea what the £1 million statue of George’s stupid head will look like, but it really feels good to see people spending like anything in this global financial meltdown situation.
