The Boy is back in town
A decade after he presided over hedonistic handover festivities at the Unity 1997 party, Boy George is returning to Hong Kong.
George Alan O'Dowd has carved out a career as a successful DJ since he left 1980s pop outfit Culture Club,
but in the 10 years since his last appearance he's made headlines for mainly non-musical reasons.
In the most notorious incident, O'Dowd was ordered to pick up rubbish on the streets of New York last year after he admitted falsely reporting a burglary in his Manhattan apartment, where police reportedly found cocaine.
A media frenzy ensued when O'Dowd reported for duty with a freshly shaved head decorated in tattoos, and the beleaguered singer lashed out at the paparazzi with insults - and his broomstick.
