Boy George should have thought of his Culture Club lyrics "Do you really want to hurt me?" about a year and half ago when he chained a Norwegian male escort to his bed in his London flat. It was revealed today in East London's Snaresbrook Crown Court that George apparently "told Carlsen,":http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/boy-george-faces-jail-term-after-guilty-verdict-in-escort-case-1054412.html "Fucking whore! Now you're going to get what you deserve," after he believed Carlsen went all CIA on his laptop snatching private photos.
The court sentenced George, whose real name is George O'Dowd to 15 months behind balls (Freudian slip. Sorry, I meant "bars") for that false imprisonment. The judge told George he was guilty of "gratuitous violence." The 47 year old was convicted back in December. George also did not reveal any evidence in his defense in the case, something his brother David, an emotional mess outside the courthouse, told the media was decided to prevent upseting O'Dowd's mother. Ahhh...a little late with that thought.
George was apparently high as a kite during the incident. "He was not himself when addled by the habitual and relatively long-lasting using of illegal drugs," "his lawyer said.":http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5ihcm0sl1QcN58I63KcWyzZU-DZLQD95OA97G0 Carlsen, 29, escaped only when he freed himself from the bondage.

"Today a court sentenced George, whose real name is George O'Dowd to 15 months behind balls for that false imprisonment of said chained victim."
That's a good one!
This is a pretty offensive post; I hope you just quoted it from somewhere else
I kind of agree w/excowboy, sorry Charley. It's his drug addled behaviour thats at question here not his sexuality.
both quotes were from court statements.... i'm not slamming his sexuality, just the fact he thought it was ok to chain a male prostute to a bed and beat him. thats wrong. and yes i believe he's an idiot for doing it.
"gratuitous violence" ... interesting wording ... almost makes it sound nice. weird judge ...
Didn't think that sounded like you.
He should have been sentenced for Culture Club a long time ago lol....glad justice was served this time.
GarageRock - LOL!!
i feel bad for the guy. it's vh1 what happened to... in the worst way.
him and gary glitter ... ouch.
What a mess
Lill OJ
I guess he's no longer a man without conviction(s)...
George is another weird puppy (not cuz he's gay, cuz he's weird). I read in Playboy back in the 80's Michael Jackson accused him of calling him in long rambling phone calls where he didn't identify himself.
If MJ thinks your weird, that's saying something...
konk...you got a great point there.
wait a minute ... Konk ... you actually READ the articles?!! {wink} :D
haha. good one, cinful!
