George Michael wants Banksy to graffiti his house

Singer willing to pay £2 million for artwork

George Michael is said to have asked mystery artist Banksy to unmask himself – so the singer can watch him in action.

The graffiti artist is renowned for keeping his identity under wraps. But George asked Banksy's representative to bring him out of hiding – with an offer of £2 million to spray paint one of the walls in his North London home.

'Banksy has insisted on remaining undercover and will only go ahead if George goes out for the duration,' a source tells The Daily Mirror.

George, 44, is said to have already forked out £400,000 on two canvasses by Banksy.
