More quotes by Boy George
I would rather have a cup of tea than sex.
Boy George
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.
Boy George
As a kid, I would've loved to get a tweet from David Bowie or Joan Rivers or Tom Cruise. It's great that you can communicate with people and it's instant.
Boy George
I'm always tweeting about food and things that I've made.
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
You find out so many interesting things when you're not on drugs.
Boy George
I'm not someone who can sing anything... And my favorite singers aren't people whose voice you would say is amazing. I'm a big Bob Dylan fan, a huge David Bowie fan... none of those people have orthodox, cabaret voices. These are people where what they're singing about is just as important as how they're singing it.
Boy George
I don't know whether when I was 20 years old or 25 years old if somebody would have come along with incredible wisdom whether I would have really listened.
Boy George
People say things about me all the time and I get over it. I've had some appalling things told about me.
Boy George
When Culture Club broke up, I hadn't been going out a lot because we'd been working all the time, so I suddenly had this period of leisure. And it was just around the time that the whole acid house thing kicked off in London.
Boy George
I also tried to avoid doing obvious dance records.
Boy George
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.
Boy George
On Madonna: She's a gay man trapped in a woman's body.
Boy George
I like the big bombastic singers, but I'm also very drawn to what I call character singers. They're people who obviously aren't very huge singers, but they've got this ability to tell a story and touch you emotionally without really using any kind of histrionics or special effects.
Boy George
Very few people can truly divorce themselves from what they feel emotionally and sexually.
Boy George
For me, I've gotten better at that since I've gotten older. I never was good at that when I was younger.
Boy George
Being in the Boy Scouts, you don't think about whether people are gay or straight. You're busy putting up tents and learning to cut sausages.
Boy George
The band never actually split up - we just stopped speaking to each other and went our own separate ways.
Boy George
It's [Jail's] like being at school. Except you can't leave.
Boy George
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.
