George Michael has been "cruising" for casual gay sex since he was a teenager.
The 'Fast Love' singer - who was caught coming out of London's Hampstead Heath last week after having gay sex with a 58-year-old jobless van driver - has admitted his habit of prowling known gay haunts for public sex thrills started in his younger years.
He is quoted in Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper as saying, "I've been doing this on and off for years since I was a teenager."
However, despite his apparent appetite for casual sex, Michael insists he doesn't worry about his health or safety.
He added, "I have never once seen any violence. If I want to see violence, or what I call shameful behavior, I could go to a club where women these days have to hold their hand over their drink for fear of being drugged."
Michael, who claims his partner of 10 years Kenny Goss has no problem with him cruising for sex, also insisted he was not embarrassed about his actions. He said, "I have not cheated or lied about my sex life to anybody in my life."
