HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BOY GEORGE!

Boy George, the androgynous 80s icon, is 51 today. Boy came to prominence as the lead singer of Culture Club in the early 80s and took America, and the world, by storm. Can you believe that not everyone knew he was gay right away? Well, to be fair, not everyone knew he was a "HE" right away either. ha. Boy George and Culture Club had hit after hit in the 80s and are still kickin' it occasionally these days, and Boy has become a quite sought after dj as well, when he's not chaining hustlers to radiators that is. Below I present to you Boy George's biggest UK solo hit, Everything I Own (#1, 1987) and his biggest US solo hit, The Crying Game (#15, 1992).
