FALLEN pop legend BOY GEORGE is reduced to flogging £10 T-shirts at an East End market stall.
The Do You Really Want To Hurt Me? singer, 46, looked bored and miserable as he tried to shift the budget clobber from a battered trestle table.
In shades and a shapeless hoodie, bald George slumped in his chair at Spitalfields Market, East London.
On offer were £10 T-shirts, vests and hooded tops all emblazoned with his B-Rude label. One shirt carried the slogan: Paris Hilton S*cks.
Star ... George, front, with band
LFI
George told The Sun: It's been all right quiet today though. I'm bored and cold but we have to do a Friday stall to get a pitch on Sunday.
The troubled star real name George O'Dowd sold more than ten million records in the 1980s with flamboyant group Culture Club.
But he has suffered a fall from grace in recent years and has battled heroin addiction.
In 2006 a judge made him sweep the streets of New York on a community service order after George falsely reported a break-in at his Manhattan flat and cops found cocaine.
The star also faces trial in November for allegedly assaulting and imprisoning a male escort. He is accused of chaining the man to a wall in his East London flat
Si l'envie vous prend de faire du shopping et que vous vous rendez au Spitalfields Market de Londres, vous risque d'y rencontrer un vendeur de tee-shirts dont la visage vous rappellera vaguement quelqu'un. Ce vendeur n'est autre que Boy George !
De son vrai nom George O'Dowd, cette incône de la musique des années 80 (souvenez vous de culture club) a du faire face à de nombreux revers et probablement à une certaine dépendance à la drogue. A 46 ans et après avoir vendu 10 millions de disques, l'ex-chanteur se voit dans l'obligation de vendre des tee-shirts pour subsister.
A un journaliste qui l'interroge sur comment se passe sa journée de travail, Boy George réponds : « Ca s'est plutôt bien passé, c'était assez calme aujourd'hui quand même. Je m'ennuie et j'ai froid mais on doit tenir un stand le vendredi si on veut avoir une place le dimanche. »
George reprends-toi ! Do you really want to hurt me ?

Boy George needs little introduction…he shot to international stardom in the 80’s as the front man of one of the UK’s biggest exports Culture Club and has remained one of the world’s most recognisable iconic figures…however George himself says…’I am sometimes recognised for all the wrong reasons’. In advance of his 2010 European Tour George will perform a set of exclusive intimate shows at Leicester Square Theatre…stripped down, acoustic, unplugged whatever cliché you want to call it this set of exclusive concerts lies bare George as an artist, singer, lyricist and musician – this is simply ‘The Man and his Music’… performing his biggest hits from Culture Club, his solo career, new writing and covers from his own music heroes. DON’T MISS ONE OF THE BEST SOUL VOICES AND MOST COLOURFUL PERSONALITIES BRITIAN AS EVER PRODUCED!
£35.00-£45.00
