Tsk Tsk – Boy George Charged with Imprisoning Male Escort
Oh, that crazy Boy George (George O’Dowd) is being a very naughty boy! Okay, so he has a drug problem, but really, Boy needs to stay out of trouble with the law. He was arrested for heroin possession in 1986, sued by an ex in 1995, arrested for cocaine possession in 2005 (for which he had to do community service as a garbage man of all things!), but now, the oddest charge of all has been issued – for imprisoning a male escort.

George was convicted today of imprisoning Audun Carlsen, a Norwegian man, in his East London flat, where he reportedly handcuffed Carlsen and beat him with a metal chain. Ew, sounds like Boy took “Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?” a bit too far!
Boy has been released on bail until January 16th, when his hearing will be held. The judge in the case has said it is very probable that Boy will face jail time for this offense.
Perhaps when he gets out of jail, Boy and George Michael should appear together on the George & George: The Felony Tour!
