The News Boy George Fabulous

Décidemment, la tournée de Boy george fait beaucoup parler de lui dans les tabloids et internet anglais.... Ce qui s'avere une tres bonne chose et qui change des faits divers trash de George ces dernieres années....

 Brace yourself Dish readers. No, that's not foreplay, but it is a foray into some sparkling and surprising news. BOY GEORGE is ... not in jail ... not doing community service instead of jail time ... not avoiding jail ... not doing anything connected to jail at all, but is preparing a concert tour.

What? Come again? That's correct. "Songs that Make You Dance and Cry" is a short British tour of small venues, the boy's first tour in 10 years, according to the Manchester Evening News.

"I'm not coming out to do a nostalgia show," he told the newspaper. "Nostalgia is a word which stinks of desperation. There are a lot of people who think I am desperate and they are very wrong."

Boy George says he's not doing it for the money, but apparently for the sheer joy of the experience. Dish doesn't want to sound cynical, but that just doesn't sound consistent with anything we've heard from the lips of a pop star in the past ... well, 10 years.

"I have to accept that in the past couple of years, all people have heard of me are bad things," he says. "So I've got to show them I'm not some seedy road-sweeper, that actually I am a proper artist and songwriter and I've got a great voice. And I think I forgot that as well."

Boy George will be singing some old and new stuff, but claims it won't be all 20 year-old songs, unlike other '80s pop stars, whom he unfortunately doesn't name.

"I sometimes think I'm the only person who realizes that the '80s are over," he said.

Well, that's a bit surprising, but the shows sound like they just might be very good. Or at least worth seeing. Now, if only Dish had a sugar daddy to treat us right and take us to England for Valentine's Day.
