personality ugly best-things
The best thing you can do is work on your personality because we're all gonna get ugly.
years two lasts
A lot of what I've been learning in the last two years is due to therapy - about my sexuality, why things go wrong, why relationships haven't worked. It isn't anything to do with anybody else; it's to do with me.
ideas people spiders
I'm very uncomfortable with the idea of vaginas. They bother me in the way that spiders bother some people.
boys voice vowels
Leigh [Bowery] affected a posh English voice and elongated his vowels, and you never knew if he was being sincere or mocking you. If I ever commented on one of his outfits he would snip, "Oh, thank you, Mr. Boy George. I do value your opinion." And then he would spin and make some ridiculous noise and mince off.
mother nice book
Every freak has a mother. When I met Marilyn Manson I was struck by how nice he was. People are rarely as weird as you anticipate. Except for Courtney Love-who reminded me of that mad snake in The Jungle Book.
sex tea cups-of-tea
I would rather have a cup of tea than sex.
drug clubs culture
Drugs became an obsession, like Culture Club had been, like religion later became although I'm through with that now.
gay men issues
The world is less homophobic, depending on where you are in the world. As a gay man I feel very strongly about those issues around the world - there've been huge changes and developments, but there are still places where things are scary.
long-distance-relationship radiance separation
Separation penetrates the disappearing person like a pigment and steeps him in gentle radiance.
insecurity denial balls
She's probably in denial that she's a great big ball of insecurity and I'm quite well aware that I am one.
stars years crowds
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.
toughness
I suppose there is a lot of toughness in me.
gay men body
On Madonna: She's a gay man trapped in a woman's body.
sex children holiday
We changed the name from Sex Gang Children to Culture Club because Jon Moss, our drummer, went to L.A. on holiday and took some demo tapes with him. -Everyone loved the music but nobody liked the name. I -remember getting a postcard from Jon from L.A. saying, "I don't think America's ready for the Sex Gang Children."
