Boy George and the Chain Gang

A February trial date has been set for singer Boy George on the charges that he falsely imprisoned a male escort by chaining him to the wall.On Thursday, Thames Magistrate Court in London assigned the date of February 25 after the former pop star was indicted for the alleged incident which occured at his flat in east London. George remained silent during the proceedings, speaking only to confirm that his real name is George O’Dowd.
The alleged incident occured on April 28, with George reportedly chaining up the 28-year-old escort. As of now, George has made no comment about the incident and has no plans to talk to reporters. The February trial will be held at Snaresbrook Crown Court.
This is not George’s first run in with the law this year. In August, he performed a week of community service in New York, his punishment for admitting that he falsely reported a burglary at his apartment in Lower Manhattan. A stash of cocaine was found when police responded to the call.
Apparently George is following the directions of his fashion label a little too closely – B-Rude.
