Boy George ‘Chains Up Male Hooker’, Gets Arrested

There's an unwritten rule in the male escort business  that says 'don't go to Boy George's house unless you want to be chained up and falsely imprisoned against your will', but don't ask us how we know that.

It's emerging that one male escort didn't heed this warning, and now Boy George has been arrested and charged with false imprisonment for it. Apparently Boy George and another man invited Norwegian escort Auden Carlsen into his home, chained him to a wall and promptly went about threatening him in all kinds of undisclosed ways.

Wait a minute, Boy George is gay?

Now, if we were Boy George we'd be doing our utmost to stay out of trouble at the moment, because the last thing we'd want is a repeat performance of his last arrest and subsequent punishment for drug possession. You'll remember that, of course, that situation ended with Boy George angrily waggling a broom about and screaming like an infant witch because people were taking pictures of him sweeping parts of New York as part of his community service order.

But just because we'd want to keep our nose clean in Boy George's position, it doesn't necessarily mean that Boy George agrees with us. Not when there are perfectly good male Norwegian escorts walking the streets instead of being chained to a wall in Boy George's house, where they clearly all belong.

It has been announced that Boy George - the man responsible for hits like Karma Chameleon and probably a couple of others, as well as the brief 2001 fad for painting the underside of your jaw black to make you look less of a fat bald goth - has been arrested and charged with false imprisonment following claims made by 28-year-old Norwegian escort Auden Carlsen.

Carlsen claims that Boy George and his friend invited him into Boy George's flat to pose for photos. Photos, it appears, that involved chaining male escorts to the wall and insulting them a lot. It's too early for firm details, but police have said:

"George O’Dowd, 47, a musician of Ravey Street, EC2, is charged with the false imprisonment of a 28-year-old in Ravey Street on April 28. He has been bailed to return before Thames Magistrates Court on November 22."

We'll be following this story as it happens, partly because there just aren't enough stories about hooker-chaining these days and partly because we're dying to find out what the sort of man who gets intimidated by Boy George's threats looks like.
