Boy George People Quotations

I know that there are some people who don't like me, and that kind of surprises me more than the people who love me.

A lot of people felt I was getting work because I was Boy George. My response at the time was that there's a lot of DJs making records, they're not all making good records, but they have the right to do that.

What's really sad is that a lot of very talented people are being forced to do things that are very embarrassing and I don't intend to be one of them.

Luckily, I'm not one of those people who wants to be young; it's never bothered me.

I'm a big fan of Yoko, one of those weird people who really love her music, and who argues with people all the time, because people do write her off.

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.

Whenever there's an interview with me, I might read it, but I don't read the comments because they're so hateful sometimes. When someone writes something nasty, I just think, "If that's your contribution to my day, I really don't need your impoliteness." I'm lucky that people are very cool with me and I get a lot of love. I appreciate that.

The New Romantic scene was so tiny. Although it got lots of mileage in the media, it was a really small club with only a core group of people. As it got more popular, kids started to come from the suburbs all dressed up, but it -really wasn't as big as it looked.

Warren Street was at the high end of the New Romantic scene. They were mostly college art students and people who knew top designers.

I'm very uncomfortable with the idea of vaginas. They bother me in the way that spiders bother some people.

Antony is so honest and so powerful, and that is what makes a true star. I've seen audiences twitch when he performs, because some people get very uncomfortable with such raw vulnerability. But I love it. It's what we need.
