George Michael has found a new friend in prison, said the London Daily Mirror. A 6-foot-3, 280-pound career criminal named Robert Bleach has offered the 47-year-old singer his protection while Michael serves out his eight-week DUI sentence. Bleach “took a liking to Michael and told him that if anyone messed with him, he could use his name to get them to back off,” a source says. A grateful Michael may hire Bleach as a bodyguard when he’s released from prison in January.
