Boy George Update: Garbageman or “Sanitation Department Employee”

June 28, 2006

To stay out of jail, the one-time Culture Club singer signed up for five days community service in Manhattan yesterday and was assigned to the Department of Sanitation.

''He will be part of our team,'' said a department spokesman. ''We won't know exactly what he will be doing for several weeks, though.''

The singer, born George O'Dowd, has reportedly struggled with drug problems for years and was ordered to do community service after pleading guilty in March to false reporting of an incident. He called police with a bogus report of a burglary at his lower Manhattan apartment last October, and the responding officers said they found cocaine.

Lest anyone get the wrong idea, we must state that OUTzone loves Boy George. We know he’s had a rough time and look forward to him putting his community service behind him. Until then, gays gotta be doing their community service just like everyone else. So we’re mighty happy to report that he signed up and is on track to clear his record.
