George Michael has said that he is delighted to be freed from prison.
The singer, who was released yesterday after serving half of an eight-week sentence for driving under the influence of drugs, joked that people would "get sick" of seeing him out and about.
The 47-year-old gave an impromptu speech to reporters and photographers outside his house in Highgate, North London just hours after his spell behind bars came to an end.
Michael confirmed that his minders had left the house and insisted that he was "fine", adding: "I just want to say thank you to everybody who supported me in there - it's quite inspirational. Fantastic, what a beautiful day!"
He also told the waiting press: "I'm going to stop trying to run away from you guys. You'll get sick of me, you'll probably see me around. So you [can] all take a few pictures.
"I'm coming out here on my own so that you realise I just want to start again. Do you know what I mean? I want to be out. I want to go out!"
Michael also told cameramen not to film him while he entered the code to his front gate, joking: "I'll have to change it now!"
