Everyone's got their own hilarious crossed-wires story about a male prostitute, and Boy George is certainly no exception.

You see, it's been claimed that Boy George fell prey to that age-old male prostitute mix-up where one person thinks you both just want some cursory, meaningless, soul-destroying sex and the other one just wants to chain everyone to a wall against their will and threaten them for a bit. We've all been there.

Except that Boy George says didn't do any of that - at Snaresbrook Crown Court yesterday, Boy George pleaded not guilty to false imprisonment. Lucky his charge wasn't Looking More And More Like Phil Collins With An Underactive Thyroid, because then they would have thrown away the keys.

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?
