Some things he said:

“She is a horrible, horrible human being with no redeeming qualities.”

“It's too late to reconcile,” he said in an interview with 'Heart Breakfast'. “I think we are all very selective about what we remember. People remember things the way they want, as long as you do it with a sense of humor. I just say honestly what I think of her... And comparing Madonna with Marilyn Monroe is like comparing Raquel Welch (an actress, ed.) with the back of a bus.”

“Madonna and I will never be friends. That is already far too late.” When asked if he was worried about what Madonna would say if she found out, he fired back: "No, I hope she writes something about me, but she won't." Indeed, the pop star has never publicly commented on Boy George's statements.

Yes. He hired a rent boy and then chained him up for days or something like that.

Oh people... Just let him live his fantasy, after all he's speaking to Belgian press, for sure they wanna hear his opinion, right @True Blue 84???

Been a fan of George for longer than I have of of Madonna... but to be honest I do not give a crap about his opinion about anyone ;) he is just talking about her.. because he knows it creates attention (He has a new book out)... it is with him as with anyone else... nothing creates as much attention and to a certain degree power... as negativity.

The guy involved claimed it was just a photographic 'shoot' and he wasn't an escort.
Either way,
'Mr. O'Dowd' got jail time for it.

"During O'Dowd's trial last month,
the jury was told that he had invited Carlsen into his bedroom after a naked photo session,
during which they took cocaine."

Two faced cunt, not only with Madonna but with friends as well, i know this guy whom used to host him in Paris and he pretended him to be his best friend then he ghosted him after more than a decade and he told me other bad things about him, so when i read he says Madonna is a horrible human being it's really perverted. Maybe selling his book will able him to pay back the money he owes to a lot of people. Judging by his new cheap dentures making him lisp, money has not come yet. Except for Marilyn who is not the last one to trash him, he does not have a lot of friends left and people from his Camden years hate his guts. I say two faced because when he's not promoting something and needs Madonna to be talked about, he defends her bites and nails on social media, i guess her totally ignoring him last month backstage at the Celebration tour cut deep. Why would she talk about him ? He is irrelevant to her life and she does not need him to be talked about. I mean his life is doing reality tv and being managed by a reality tv star husband...Sad because he has a lot of very very good tracks in his vault but music is not his focus and it has never been hence his career....he'd rather release another cheap Culture Club best of with sad remixes than going into his vault and give fans the real diamond he has there. 

Boy George is one of these sad persons, most of them older gay men, who think being a cunt is having a personality when it's just being a cunt.

When you see all these 70's and early 80's pop stars saying nasty things about Madonna you have to remember that when she came onto the scene she obliterated and ended their careers because she was the real deal.

Why are people who jump at other's necks always the ones who have to hide the most? 

[JustinTimes 761]

I've met Boy George and he's an arrogant twat, he thinks he's more famous than he actually is. He was swanning around the place like  a peacock.

The reason why Madonna doesn't respond is because she doesn't care about someone who had a couple of hits in the early 80's and has no relevance in her life.

[DiegoLCL 5,057]

The way Madonna is still gracious to Cher and Elton John after all the shit they say and has never responded to this man in forty years speaks volumes about his relevance. It must hurt him...

That last sentence you wrote about negativity is very true.

 

And not even thinking about Madonna.

thoughts?... 

I would like to hear the actual interview.  Not to say, he hasn't been known to say some unkind things about her in the past, but I wonder if this is a rehash of his thoughts from the past.  I had thought he came to realization he was just jealous of her success and created this feud in his head.  I suspect Madonna has blown him off and that just annoys him.  For it to be a feud, it takes at least two people. I don't recall Madonna ever speaking about Boy George in a feuding manner. 

We can compare this to Cher and Elton, but the difference is; we know Madonna has engaged with them since the nasty things they said of Madonna. Both artists have since claimed they are on good terms with her.  I think with Cher, it comes down to the fact we have two assertive Divas and they clashed in the past.  I'm sure Madonna was being a "brat" in the early days as Cher stated.  I suspect Madonna just rubbed her the wrong way.  But again, it seems they have gotten past that. As for Elton, he and his husband admitted, they were jealous.  Elton is a legend his own right, so I can see why Madonna may seem to be a thorn at his side since he does sing completely live at his concerts and is very proficient in playing the piano. To me, it just wasn't necessary and showed he was just a poor sport. 

Back to Boy George, the fact she never acknowledges him does speak volumes.  Or maybe she just doesn't care.  It's not like she really goes out of her way to appease these people.

I do like George on a level.  I'm sure he is far from innocent when it comes to bad behavior.  We also know he's had addiction problems as well. He's hardly a "one hit wonder" as someone else pointed out in this thread, but unfortunately much of his success is in the mid 80's.  It's amazing that the man is still alive. He's been to Hell and back many times.  I do think he's a better person today and I do wonder if this latest article is just rehashing things he used to think of her, and isn't being clear about how he feels today about her.  As some mentioned, "negativity" sells.  These days people are more likely going to react and be interested in reading drama than a piece that praises anyone.

Does anyone have this interview? She was so beautiful in it. I've only seen a few seconds here and there with poor quality.
About Boy George, who cares? It looks like famous gay men have severe problems againts Madonna.

[EgoRod 5,450]

I met him before, several times, He used to come a lot to a bar I used to work and I know the owners and their club. He work there too. And I know lots of his acquaintances. He has been always a nasty, pretentious knob. Not even like someone that could be arrogant to some but nice to others. I still have to meet someone that has a nice word about him. He has been profiting from others and trying to make that he is more than he is. I think he accused Madonna of stealing his looks and say it to some tabloid , but Madonna couldn't care less and since then he is bitter.

Didn't he move to LA and live as freeloader for one in the circus of Housewives?

Years ago was going to EVERY single party in London and trying to impress everyone and getting free booze and privilege for being there. But got to a point that promoters and others couldn't care of his crap anymore.
