I exercise. I go to the gym every day. It's about respecting what you're doing. You're going on stage. You have to sleep. You have to be prepared.

I started going to Madame Louise's, the lesbian club where all the punk bands used to go - the Sex Pistols, the Clash. I remember seeing Billy Idol walk in there he was gorgeous.

I was approached by this guy Chris Renshaw, who had read my book and had read Leigh's book. He wanted to incorporate both characters - he probably felt Leigh wasn't famous enough and he realized Leigh [Bowery] and I were associated.

Don't talk about things you don't like. Talk about music that you love, books that you've read. I put a lot of recipes online.

For me, I've gotten better at that since I've gotten older. I never was good at that when I was younger.

I can do anything. In GQ, I appeared as a man.

Leigh [Bowery] obviously loved having me in the club because I would attract media, and he loved and lived for his column inches.

Taboo was kind of celebrating trash, the kind of records you secretly loved, like Yes Sir, I Can Boogie, by Baccara [laughs] - things that you probably shouldn't like.

I was about 16 when punk started to happen. It was so exciting. You had a social depression going on in the U.K. There was a sanitation strike. London was really grim, gray. You had Margaret Thatcher coming in. It was a really revolutionary time.

After half an hour the drug hit me like a sensuous tidal wave. I turned into a tactile temptress and wanted to stroke the whole world. It gave me untold confidence.

The band never actually split up - we just stopped speaking to each other and went our own separate ways.

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.

I was about 16 when punk started to happen... It felt like you had this naive idea that you could change things just by wearing something.

A lot of people felt I was getting work because I was Boy George. My response at the time was that there's a lot of DJs making records, they're not all making good records, but they have the right to do that.

Leigh Bowery was actually quoted as saying, Flesh is my most favorite fabric. I've seen many a freak make a scene and go, but Leigh was a special kind of exhibitionist because he was dedicated and saw it as an art form.

Someone once said a cynic is just a disappointed romantic. That really, really sums me up.

For me with The Apprentice, it kind of blew out my business brain. I don't really think of myself as a business person. I think of myself more as a creative-type person, but it's quite nice to be challenged physically and mentally.

I'm being honest, I say what I think.

I am thinking of George Michael's family, friends and fans. He was so loved and I hope he knew it because the sadness today is beyond words. Devastating. What a beautiful voice he had and his music will live on as a testament to his talent. I can't believe he is gone. I hope the Buddha will hold him in his arms. NMRK.
