George Michael has continued his expletive-filled rant about the response to his latest single.
The ex-Wham! man released his cover of New Order's 'True Faith' last week in aid of Comic Relief.
Following a negative response from some in the media, the singer-songwriter slammed the "hacks and haters" he accused of "trying to kill the record".
Continuing his Twitter response, Michael said: "Thing in the Guardian was funny though! Apparently if I swear more I'll get more followers, but I just refuse point blank to f**king do that...:) (sic).
"I mean f**k that, why the f**k would I look for trouble by swearing on a f**king public site....shame on you all at the f**king Guardian. You utter c**k p*ss b**tards."
He continued: "Am I getting the hang of it people?! It's definitely more fun! Seriously though, thought the article was very funny....
"Actually The Guardian is my preferred newspaper, is why I'm happy to take their f**king word for it,about how to get down with da kids. By swearin' n that...""
Michael added: "Those kids wot is on Twitter when they isn't readin The Guardian.. Errr....f**k. Or c**k again.
"How Shocking, it f**kING WORKS!! A thousand new followers in a couple of minutes.... My numbers are up!! What a world we live in.........( f**king excellent, heh heh ;) I'm off to the naughty step for a bit...."
