Boy George sez: Hey, Headmaster .....

#1 Post by Naughty Zoot »

... and a LOTS of other things, according to sundaymirror.co.uk:

4 March 2007
CARPER CHAMELEON
By Susie Boniface
HAS-been pop star Boy George has launched an extraordinary tirade at pop queen Madonna.

The one-time Culture Club frontman also takes a swing at George Michael, Elton John, Kate Moss and Pete Doherty.
Ex-heroin addict George - real name George O'Dowd - trashes Madonna's belief in the bizarre Kabbalah sect as anti-gay and a betrayal of her gay fans.
He said: "Nobody has actually bothered to investigate the Kabbalah attitude to gay people and I can assure you that I have investigated it, and they are homophobic.
"And I do think it's shocking that somebody who has made so much money out of gay people is now part of an organisation which is clearly anti-gay. Having said that I rest my sling-backs."
George, 46, said other established religions like Christianity, Islam and Judaism were "bent on making gay people's lives a misery".

His rantings are included in a series of videos shot to publicise new music he releases online because he has been unable to get a record deal.

In them he also says an unnamed man - who later turns out to be Elton John - "treats people like accessories" as he makes and breaks celebrity friendships.
Boy George said: "He treats people like accessories. I was invited to dinner and during the meal all he did was try and get me to bitch about George Michael.

"Because I knew he was trying to pull my tongue I wouldn't do it. After the meal he drove off in his Rolls Royce. He had given me his number and when I called it, it had been disconnected - surplus to requirements."

He added Elton's boyfriend David Furnish later tried to remonstrate with him on a night out with Janet Street-Porter and Pet Shop Boys singer Neil Tennant.
He said: "Neil Tennant said to me 'Elton is really upset with you' and I said 'who made him headmaster? When he does things like that he has to expect criticism'.

"And David Furnish followed me into the toilet and banged on the door and said 'Why are you so horrible about my boyfriend?' and I said 'Look, let me go to the loo and I'll come out and talk to you'. The next day they fed a story to the newspapers that I was cowering from David Furnish."

George is seen interviewing himself in the videos, ruminating on the meaning of fame and dancing in high-heeled boots while his music plays in the background.
In one clip George - forced to do street cleaning as part of a community service sentence last year after cocaine was found in his New York apartment - highlights other celebs caught out by police.
George Michael is seen lip-synching to a reggae song called Nabbed Again along with cuttings about his arrest in a Los Angeles toilet for lewd conduct and being slumped at the wheel of his car allegedly unfit to drive.

Stories about Kate Moss snorting cocaine and her lover Pete Doherty are also shown as Boy George waves a gun, a fistful of £20 notes, and wears elaborate facepaint, singing "the greatest crime is getting caught".
He also dresses in a Hilda Ogden-style headscarf and curlers to clean a toilet in a mockery of his own sentence.
He is seen singing songs from his stage show Taboo with Matt Lucas in a green feathered dress, and says the pair "fell out over something trivial" after Lucas appeared in the musical.
The 57 videos have become a phenomenon on the YouTube website with over 50,000 people logging on to view them.
Some of the clips have content warnings because they feature young men baring their bottoms and waist-height shots of them dancing to George's music in tight underpants.

But they also have a more serious side as George sings about mum Dinah being "treated like a punchbag" by his father Gerald and admitting he is "seen as a motormouth and not a musician".
He added: "I've got a new song criticising myself for being queen bitch and I'm going to try to heed my own advice."
He has several clips titled "The Sanity of Boy George" in which he talks about his life and in one is seen crying about his arrest and the death of his father, whom he had not spoken to for several years.
I like it here ~~ wherever it is ...

They deserve each other.
Have you seen the pictures of him giving weed to penguins at a zoo and Kate just laughing?

lol... Funny article...
But I kinda like all of those crowns except Pete and Kate (whom I don't know very well). It's sad to see them start bishing at each other. I hope they can live together more peacefully :mrgreen:
I love U... U pay my rent ;)

To be fair, Elton does come off like a total wanker. Take a look at his
Tantrums & Tiaras for proof.
