Boy George ws being funny..



"EVERYONE IN GROUP: Please calm down. If everyone would take time to read the actual article, it says that Boy George was really referring to a Poster of Prince he used to have over his bed. Boy George was just being funny but unfortunately in these days people take things too literal to understand sarcasm anymore."


comment taken from fb, I just have to agree,



people don't read well if they are mad at BG because of a joke about a POSTER...

The comment from fb is trying to twist things and back track from what was really said, just like Boy George is doing now.

Okay, I just saw this mess on my local news of all places. They reported that Boy George said he had sex with prince, which is an incorrect quote.

This is why I agree with Novabrkr. In any context what Boy George said was irresponsible because as the saying goes, a lie can travel around the world before the truth even gets its pants on.

Especially in the age of social media, disreputable journalists and a stupid pop culture driven populace.

Exactly.......thank you! This is why I said it will reflect negatively on Prince, JudasL.....think before you post and accuse others of being homophobic! In this day and age, people can put a lie out there and it can turn into the truth very fast, it's the world we live in now. You have to watch what you say!

Prince is a straight man, flamboyant... well yes, still straight......

I wonder if THIS was the poster on the wall at Boy George's place...?

I don't blame Boy George, he said a joke and so what...?

Why would anyone care if he is gay or not unless they had some problem with people being gay?

Christ, he was singing about this in 1981 and we're still here

Boy gone get fucked for real...had to say it

read my mind...

is Prince on Twitter? It would be really easy for him to kill this story by issuing a simple denial.

In 1991,when Sinead O' Connor accused him of cussing her out and threatening violence against her,he told Rolling Stone magazine "That never happened.I have no idea what she's talking about".

End of story

And the homophobic commentary from ex Prince associates starts...

Jill Jones needs to calm down.She's blowing this out of proportion.This is NOT an example of the gay community "bullying" poor little Prince.It's just a dumb joke told by one person.

Someone should inform her that many people already assume that Prince is gay or bisexual...regardless of what Boy George said.Big freakin' deal! Prince has always struck me as the type of thick-skinned person who doesn't care what people think of him,anyway.

Prince is on Twitter, but why give that idiot more attention that he has already received for making a "joke" at his expense. Boy George had no problem making the remark, so Boy George should be the one to clarify what he meant on camera and not hide like a coward behind a publicist.

So if I'm a female and I corrected someone who publically stated that I was really a male, would that make me sexist?

Dumb logic.

i did read that P was a big fan of Culture Club's first two albums...

This would explain Prince's beret fetish.

Prince once recorded a song called "Bob George" I always wondered if that title was some kind of insult(?) against Boy George.

Prince used to be thick skinned.

Let's see if his Jehovah Witness instincts kick in.

Oh lawd, I can't believe anyone's taking this shit seriously! And...even if it were true, who the hell cares?!!

Maybe Prince cares.

Even if he does, his best response is no response. When I said, "Who cares?" I was referring to the public, not Prince.

I guess ole Boy George got his 15 seconds worth of slander and fame... Damn shame, I used to love Culture Club back in the day...

It's not slanderous to say that you slept with somebody. Everybody who is is saying that shit needs to interrorgate their prejudices. Also, it was very off the cuff. He said it at a taping of a show where he's expected to improvise commentary. They're probably not even going to broadcast it. It was a joke. It's not a big deal. Everyone needs to calm the fuck down.

You missed a statement I made... Who the hell cares? At least as far as so-called fans go... I don't.

My point is--David Bowie admitted to bi-sexuality WAY before Prince started doing his androgenous thing way back in the 80s... My point is that it is really sad that Boy George would even want to make a joke about that at this stage in his life, whether true or not. Who the hell cares at this point?!! Geez Louise! Why doesn't Boy George get back with Culture Club like he was supposed to do...

You're right. It's not slanderous to say that you slept with somebody but it is if it's not true. At the very least, it's in poor taste to cast aspersions by making that claim regardless of orientation. The damage is done. Prince probably prepping another album for release while Boy George is prepping another syringe for another hit trying to catch another high instead of hit song.
