Boy George lays into music stars

BOY George has let rip at Elton John, Madonna, George Michael and Eminem in a bitchy outburst.

The gay singer hit out at Elton for performing at the 2002 MTV Awards with US rapper Eminem, who has been blasted for his homophobic lyrics.

Boy George said: "It's like me singing with Pol Pot.

"People will call you a fag or whatever occasionally, but it's so much more prevalent now and he has to take some responsibility.

"He's an a**hole and I think every gay person with a brain cell found it hideously offensive to see Elton performing with him."

Boy George, who fronted 1980s band Culture Club, then had a go at Madonna. He said she used the gay community to boost her career but then converted to the Kabbalah religion whiclh he claims is against homosexuality.

He said: "Her agenda with the gay community was always about, 'It's good for me'.

"It's ironic that she's joined an organisation that says homosexuality is a disease that can be cured and no one picks her up on it.

"After making all those millions of dollars out of gay people pretending to kiss girls, pretending to be a lesbian. I think she's cynical."

Boy George, now working as a club DJ and living in New York, also said gay George Michael was a hypocrite because he didn't come out early on in his career.

He slagged off the Wham! star claiming his arrest in a Los Angeles toilet stereotyped all gays as "rampant".

The DJ, then turned his vitriol on TV, first criticising makeover show ***** Eye For The Straight Guy, in which gay men give style tips to straight men. "My life is about much more than what my cushions are like, or what theatre show I should go to," he said. "It's really poncy. I just think that they should leave straight people alone. They look fine."

He was recently invited to take part in ITV's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here but refused saying he would rather "sleep in the gutter".

Boy George, 43, whose musical lifestory Taboo flopped on Broadway after three months, launched his tirade in The Times as he promoted his new book Straight.

He once famously said that he preferred a "nice cup of tea to sex".

Now he says of his sex life: "I think you go through periods when you're like, 'I can't be bothered', and just drink cups of tea.

"But then you go through stages when you're amassing a football team on a weekly basis.

"I try not to have too many one-night stands. Once in a while is OK when you're starving and you really need that bit of comfort."

And the DJ, renowned for his flamboyant clothes, has the ultimate chat-up line.

He said: "I'm drunk in a disco and somebody equally drunk is staring at me and I'm like, 'OK, want to see the rest of my hats?'."Mirror

MATERIAL girl Madonna has hit back at Boy George's claims that practising Kabbalah makes her a "hypocrite".

The ex-Culture Club singer believes the cult religion, a form of Jewish mysticism, is homophobic because it says homosexuality is a curable disease.

He recently said: "After making all those millions of dollars out of gay people, pretending to kiss girls, pretending to be a lesbian! I think she's cynical."

But 46-year-old Madonna's spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg told the New York Post that Boy George's accusations were "ridiculous". She added: "There's not enough room to list Madonna's longstanding passion, love, commitment and devotion to the gay community, which has not changed for 20 years.

"I wish Boy George would go back to writing songs. Does he ever have anything nice to say about anyone?"

Ooh, sounds like handbags at dawn to us!

Meanwhile, the celebs who will perform on ITV1's Madonna Mania tribute show later this spring have just been announced. They include G4, Javine, Corrie's Nikki Sanderson and Debra Stephenson, Liberty X and Welsh soprano Katherine Jenkins mIRROR

Boy George still bitching....





Handbags At Dawn: Camp Stars Get Catty

Gay singer Boy George has branded Little Britain star Matt Lucas a "prissy, niggly diva."

The former Culture Club star also called Elton John a humourless dame.

The singer made his comments about his fellow celebrities during an interview with the Radio Times.

He said: "Elton John is like our headmaster, the grand old dame of pop, with a beautiful voice but living in an ornate bubble, full of fresh flowers, surrounded by people who nod and laugh at everything he says, and he doesn't have a sense of humour."

Of award-winning comic Lucas, with whom he worked on the cast of his musical Taboo, Boy George said: "He (Matt) wouldn't talk about his sexuality, although he's now made the queerest show in Britain."

Boy George, who works as a club DJ and lives in New York, is becoming notorious for his outbursts.

He recently blasted Elton John for duetting with rapper Eminem, who has been widely criticised for his homophobic lyrics.

And last week, the singer accused Madonna of being a hypocrite for using the gay community to boost her career.

He said the Kabbalah religion, to which she has converted, was opposed to homosexuality.

He had a further dig at gay star George Michael in the Radio Times, saying when he started out the Wham! singer was "so desperate to be famous, he feared that if fans discovered he was `a true Greek' it would all end in tears"Ananova
