More quotes by Boy George
I am what I am. There's nothing I can do about it.
Boy George
I wasn't part of the Taboo crowd the same way I was part of the New Romantics. I suppose I was seen more as an elder statesman because I had been around the London club scene for so many years. To the Taboo crowd I was really seen as a pop star, someone famous.
Boy George
My God is better than your God
Boy George

Boy George
Karma chameleon: we come and go, we come and go.
Boy George
I find that most people [in social media] just want me to say happy birthday to their mom or wish them good luck with their exams.

My mother and father were fantastic, very active. I find it difficult to say this, but I'm quite a loving person and I've always been loving to my friends. In the long run, that pays off. I'm very interested in other people, and if you are, they're interested in you.
Boy George

Boy George
I was really good friends with Matthew Ashman, the guitarist in Bow Wow Wow. He died, unfortunately. He was one of my best friends during my sort of punk period.
Boy George
The band never actually split up - we just stopped speaking to each other and went our own separate ways.
Boy George
Very few people can truly divorce themselves from what they feel emotionally and sexually.
Boy George
Go home. Let me do my community service.
Boy George
I feel like my career has always been a series of collisions and accidents. Being in the right place at the right time. Having the right haircut. It's so mad to think that it happened in the way that it happened.
Boy George
On Madonna: She's a gay man trapped in a woman's body.
Boy George
Every freak has a mother. When I met Marilyn Manson I was struck by how nice he was. People are rarely as weird as you anticipate. Except for Courtney Love-who reminded me of that mad snake in The Jungle Book.
Boy George
I can do anything. In GQ, I appeared as a man.
Boy George
It's [Jail's] like being at school. Except you can't leave.
Boy George
Someone once said a cynic is just a disappointed romantic. That really, really sums me up.
