Boy George has recently made yet another confession, this time about his past behavior towards a pop icon. Just a few weeks ago, he admitted that he had made some not-so-nice comments about Liam Payne. But now, the 63-year-old Culture Club singer is revealing his regret over those words, especially since Payne's sudden death at the young age of 31.
In an interview, Boy George shared that he had once said that Payne was "off his nut", which he now realizes was not a very kind thing to say. He explained that at the time, he felt like Payne was out of control and he couldn't help but voice his thoughts. However, when news of Payne's death reached him, it hit him hard and he couldn't help but feel the same senselessness that he had felt when Amy Winehouse passed away.
In the midst of these confessions, Boy George also opened up about a recent interaction he had with Madonna. "I have been a total b***h, there's no denying it," he admitted. He explained that he was in a room with Madonna's friends and she didn't even say hello to him. He compared her to RuPaul, saying that if they don't like you, everyone around them has to hate you too. He felt like he was back in school with the cool kids.
But this wasn't the first time that Boy George and Madonna had a less-than-friendly encounter. Back in the 1980s, when Boy George was topping the charts with Culture Club, he had an unfortunate run-in with Madonna during her Like a Virgin era. "In the '80s, all of us were in competition with each other," he recalled. But now, looking back, he realizes that his behavior towards her was not acceptable and he regrets it.
There's no denying that Boy George and Madonna have had their differences over the years. In fact, in a previous interview, Boy George shared that there has never been any warmth between them. However, he still considers himself a fan of her music. "With me, if I like the music, I don't necessarily have to be best friends with the person," he explained. And over time, things have mellowed between them as they have both grown more confident in who they are.
"When you're young, everything is a competition," Boy George reflected. But as he has gotten older, he has learned to enjoy things without feeling threatened or competitive. He even admitted that he can now appreciate bands that he may have not liked in the past. It just goes to show that with time and maturity, even the biggest feuds can turn into mutual respect and admiration.
