Boy George was supposed to play a bunch of dates in the U.S. this summer and now that's not going to happen thanks to the damn government! Those fun haters denied him a VISA because of his upcoming criminal trial in London this November. The t-shirt entrepreneur is on trial for chaining a hooker to the wall of his apartment.
George was supposed to start his tour in Aspen, CO on July 10th and finish in Dallas, TX on August 23rd. He was also going to play a special gig for the NY Department of Sanitation for being hot to him while he did his community service there a couple of years ago.
George is not happy about the news and told Paper, "There are a number of public figures who are openly using drugs and they have no problem with immigration and I have seriously turned my life around and I feel great right now and this is just another reminder of how bad things were. I committed a crime and I happily paid the consequences and I should be allowed to move on and get on with what I do best and that is performing and making people dance and cry!"
And by "public figures" he means Amy Wino. We're all friends here, I don't know why he's talking so secretively.
George's lawyers are currently trying to get the decision reversed. He should just write a letter promising not to chain up any of our American whores against their will and also promise to work the morning shift selling patriotic t-shirts in front of our Nation's Capitol.
