Boy George was sentenced to 15 months in jail for falsely imprisoning a male escort in April 2007. The judge said Boy George, who's real name is George O’Dowd, was guilty of “gratuitous violence.” Judge David Radford sentenced Boy George to 15 months in jail Friday for handcuffing and assaulting his male Norwegian escort to a wall hook during a nude photo shoot in his East London flat. According to the AP:
The singer had been convicted in December of handcuffing Norwegian escort Audun Carlsen to a wall hook at his East London apartment. During the trial, prosecutors said Carlsen was held by O'Dowd for under an hour.In his defense, Boy George's lawyer argued that George was whacked out of his mind on drugs and "was not himself" during the incident which, obviously, turned out to be the shittiest legal defense ever. And punishing Boy George by sending him to a jail filled with men is the shittiest punishment ever because he is going to love it there. Can someone please tell Judge David Radford that Boy George is into men and violence.
The singer denied the charge, saying he had restrained Carlsen with handcuffs while trying to figure out if a computer had been tampered with. Carlsen, 29, said O'Dowd swung at him with a metal chain as he ran from the apartment after a naked photo shoot.

Boy George (born George Alan O'Dowd June 14, 1961 in English Eltham, London) is an singer-songwriter, who was part of the English Culture Club during the 1980s. His music is often classified as New Romantic movement which emerged in the early 1980s. He helped give androgyny an international stage with the success of blue-eyed soul, which is influenced by rhythm and blues and reggae. His 1990s and 2000s-era solo music has glam influences such as David Bowie and Iggy Pop. Being involved in many activities (among them songwriting, DJing, writing books, designing clothes and photography), he has released fewer music recordings in the last decade. www.GutterUncensored.com
