Earlier this year, George O'Dowd, aka Boy George, denied charges that he falsely imprisoned a prostitute by chaining him to a wall in his East London flat.
He was ordered to stand trial in November.
Well, the court proceedings have kicked off and it was reported that the jury heard a police recording today, Monday, in which the singer admits to handcuffing the ho, whom he thought was stealing computer files from him.
Huh? That seems like a contradiction to his earlier statement.
Handcuffing is a form of imprisonment, right?
"I absolutely admit I had him in the handcuffs, so he wouldn't go anywhere while I checked the computer. I certainly wasn't going to kill him, that's hardly going to do my career any good is it," said Boy George on the tape.
Boy met the boy ho online and they agreed to meet in person for a pornographic photo shoot, according to reports.
The false imprisonment apparently happened at their second meeting.
When the former Culture Club front man became suspicious that the paid sexy toy was hacking into his computer and stealing the photos he not only chained him up, says the ho, he beating him with a chain.
To that Boy George says on the tape, "You can't spank anyone if they don't want you to. Those are serious handcuffs, there was no reason to beat him up when I'd put him in those. I was just so angry. It wasn't about me doing anything, I just wanted to make sure he did not leave my house."
In case you are wondering, the boy hooker escaped by unscrewing the hook he was handcuffed to.
We think George's rants on the tape are going to get him into lots of trouble!!!
