Boy George denies hurting male escort

Singer Boy George admits in a recording played in court that he restrained a male escort with handcuffs.

But the former Culture Club singer says he had no intention of hurting the man. He also denies he tried to assault the escort or that he swung a chain at him.

The singer with the real name of George O'Dowd is on trial in London for the false imprisonment of 29-year-old Audun Carlsen.

O'Dowd says in a police recording played on Monday that he asked Carlsen to come to his apartment. O'Dowd says he wanted to ask Carlsen if he had tampered with his laptop.

The '80s pop icon has a history of drug abuse and served a community service sentence in 2006 in the United States after falsely reporting a burglary.

If yesterdays "heroes" go broke, there's always the media to kick-start a new rush on their music; media barons own the copyrights. Sorry Georgie Girl you're just another commodity.

It doesnt hurt. You get used to it after a while. or you take some medication.

Tabby Cat I think that was what he was trying to do to his "escort". Which to me is a polite term for hooker or prostitute. And a gay one at that, ouch I hope the money is worth it......!!

That tattoo is over the top. Why doesnt he just admit it was a palestinian male escort and he wanted to hold him down and hurt him.Kinda like they do back in the fake adopted homeland.

He needs a bullet like the rest of em. i mean promoting omoexualty through music and trying to tye up and ape male escorts what the hell is his problems. aside from obvious.

And to think he was idolised by my kids in the 80's and I thought they had good judgement. Drugs are a great thing - tthe slippery dip to an insidious existence.
