Boy George. AIBU?

[BottleShipDown]

Just watched the Graham Norton show on IPlayer. He refuses to budge up on the sofa - leaving two female guests squished together.

Is he being a dick or am I missing something?

Another one here who saw BG not budging up properly even when asked. He definitely didn’t want to be in the “least famous guest” seat.

I can't stand the arrogant twat.

Are you seriously comparing one man's ill-treatment of one individual - for which he has done his time - to one man's policies that destroyed the lives of millions!? Who now refuses to acknowledge even the slightest wrong-doing and is now using his notoriety to become a celebrity? Er... just NO! Give me BG over Hancock any day!

Ill treatment? Did you read what he did to him?

Why do people minimise crimes against gay men? I agree with a PP if BG’s victim was female he’d never work again

I’m astonished he’s allowed on TV, because of his previous conviction

Given his conviction I’m surprised he’s invited on. Noel fielding dated pixie geldof when she was 16 and he was in his 30’s, sleazy fucker.

Ha ha. Almost the exact same words I shouted at the TV!

He's an absolute wanker

Yes, I know all about it. Nothing to do with anyone being gay or straight. It was an awful incident but Boy George has done his time and the man lived to tell the tale.

Unlike Hancock... whose policies most certainly contributed to the actual deaths of the elderly in care homes, heathcare staff in hospitals, plus those struggling with isolation taking their own lives.

MH needs to be held accountable. But instead let's all just moan about BJ not budging up on a sofa... 🤦🏼‍♀️

They was my take on it. I think I even caught him looking at the camera, presumably to see if it was on him. Then when it was his book being discussed he looked a lot more at ease and there was more space, or so it seemed to me.

Can I please vote for neither of them or do I have to pick one? 😊

I don’t like this “done his time” BS. He served 4 months for tying a man to a wall and beating him with a metal chain. He’s not sorry and he minimises his crime. Even implies he wasn’t found guilty.

Hancock has nothing to do with any of it - and it’s diabolically hypocritical BG calls ANYONE out for their treatment of other.

I absolutely agree re MH. I’d like to put him and the rest of the current government on a bus and then for it to somehow, without anyone being at fault, go over a very high cliff. There are a few spare seats if any one wants to add anyone on.

I had no idea about BGs past. I was just curious if I had witnessed what I’d witnessed or if I was imagining it. Turns out I wasn’t imagining it and my theory that it was ego driven is probably pretty close to reality by the sounds of it.

Feel free to start a MH thread. I’ll join it!!

I also thought he sat very close to the next guest and I was fascinated by his teeth which did not seem to belong to him. I didn't get to the end of this episode as it was too tiresome. Last week was great with arnold s and Judy d.

He's always been a twat. Now he's got some pseudo lisp going on, unless they're false teeth. As my nan would have said, 'If he was made of chocolate he'd eat himself!' 😀

Setting aside his personality, Boy George was a trailblazer and one of the defining stars of the 80s and that's carried him right up to this day. He arguably has the most iconic look of any star of his era.

I used to laugh at his black painted neck chin. Oh dear. Style? I think no

"MH needs to be held accountable. But instead let's all just moan about BJ not budging up on a sofa... "

That's an unfortunate typo there. I've now got a weird mash up of Boy George and Boris Johnson going on in my head.

As to Boy George and Matt Hancock, do we have to choose? Can't they both be arses?

Whats wrong with Graham Norton? Ive never heard a bad word said about him. He was hysterical on Grace Dents Comfort Eating.

They are all repulsive tbf I mean .Noel Fielding less so but he was rumoured to be dating a 16 year old girl around that time.

Noel is lovely

Sarah Snook was at the far end -balanced on the edge. Poor Greta Lee had him right in her face and he often leaned in front of her. I got more and more annoyed as it went on - surely a producer should have moved him along when they cut to Graham.
I cannot understand for one moment the way BG has been able to carry on his career after what he did. In the interview he was talking about panto and how he plays the villain but he's a nice man really -oh no you aren't George, and you can't fool us.

Noel has also rehabilitated his reputation, but a 33 year old man dating a 16 year old Pixie Geldof is very unsavoury.

He denies this and is now married with 2 children

Ego-driven posturing celeb behaves like one. Next, please.
