That's right, Boy George is currently serving a fifteen month prison sentence for false imprisonment.
The cruc deets:
Boy George trolls the internet for some ass. He finds a hot little number, 29-year-old Audun Carlsen, on Gaydar.com and offers him $$ and a plane ticket in return for his services as a "nude model". Audun agrees and flies to London meet the dynamic gay icon.
What happened next is hazy at best. Somehow the "nude model" ended up chained to a hook in the Big Bad Glitter Wolf's bedroom. Boy George says this imprio because the "nude model" was hacking into his computer and had omitted that he happened to be HIV positive (which wouldn't be a problem if it were just a nude photo shoot right? In fact it would be discrimination)
Either way Boy George thought the hooker had been a very bad boy and needed to be punished by being beaten with a metal chain. Kinky.
Oh Boy! George
Audun Carlsen:
I wonder what kind of chain it was?

God loves a cheerful giver.
i love you libby.
p.s. i just shared this with one of my coworkers and I quote: "the most baffling thing about the whole story is that he is importing hookers from abroad. don't they have sex workers in england?"
your co-worker does not watch SVU.
So which is more appropriate: The Crying Game or Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?
apparently at the trial:
"Carlsen told the jury he only escaped after wrenching the fixture free, but was beaten with a chain by the singer as he fled into the street in Shoreditch, east London. In an apparently accidental allusion to Culture Club's 1982 No 1 hit Heather Norton, for the prosecution, asked the jury during the trial: 'Did he really have to hurt him?'"

Ahhh thank you Becca.
Funny, did anyone ever notice that the video for Do You Really Want to Hurt Me features Boy George on trial and later being sent to prison?

(It also features a group of men wearing black face doing jazz hands. But we'll ignore that, for now....)
people doing jazz hands?? that's totally offensive.
gotta say, i used to really think boy george was cool. but i have changed my mind. after all, male prostitutes should be beaten off, not on.
Having read the article e d d i e considers the perils of the lifestyle and decides to leave the life of unbridled gaiety behind. As an alternative, at least in theory, he decides to permit women. In which decision he is opposed by certain Pedro.
Why Pedro you sly devil you… Oh alright! Just this once.
Pedro (scratches his head): “Mujeres?… No creo.“
Eddie: Pero Pedro, it‘s time for a change. The Change, get it? Si, Se Puede!?!
P: No, no es posible!
E: Claro que si!
P: No! No! No!
E: Si! Si! Si!
P (after a pause): De acuerdo. But... but can we allow ourselves one last moment of indiscretion?
