Boy George with Berlin, Culture Club, and more

Born in Kent, England, Boy George fused Motown inspiration with androgyny in Culture Club, hitting big with "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me." Solo hits, drug battles, DJ fame, and a Tony-nominated musical, Taboo, mark his varied career. Continues to perform and record, both solo and with the band.

Culture Club, formed in the early '80s, became iconic with hits like "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" and "Karma Chameleon." They achieved multiple Top Ten singles in both the UK and US. Their albums, such as Kissing to Be Clever and Colour by Numbers, reached chart-topping positions. The band initially disbanded in 1987, reunited in 1998, and released new music in 1999 and 2018. Known for their unique style, they continue to influence the pop genre.
