London:
Beatles legend Paul McCartney decided to cheer up George Michael by sending a hand-written letter to the singer, who is serving a jail term.
Macca wrote to the singer to lift his spirits while he serves time for his drug-fuelled car smash.
The 68-year-old singer "empathised" with the Wham! star's plight after he spent ten days in prison in Tokyo in 1980 after being caught with cannabis.
George, 47, has served two weeks of his eight-week sentence and could be out on licence in a fortnight from Category C jail Highpoint in Suffolk, the Sun reported online.
"He got the letter on Monday and was really chuffed. Sir Paul said he would see him soon and told George to keep his chin up.
"The letter was two pages long and George read it over and over again," a source said.
