Boy George | Club Random with Bill Maher

[@Mandrake591]

So much respect for Boy George, his music, his attitude, not afraid to make fun of himself, aging well, a true cultural groundbreaker. I’m glad he got the hell away from heroin, I hope everybody does.

[@mikelkirby2791]

I loved it when Bill said: I cannot make my point because Boy George kept interrupting. lol Bill interrupts all his Club Random's guests. Great Interview.

[@aggressivemediocrity]

It's rare to see the script get flipped on Bill, but Boy George's intellect and charm definitely had Bill rocked back on his heels a bit. And the way he hit Bill with the questions... what a fascinating person George is he needs his own pod cast.

[@JeffMcNeal]

"Don't get up" - "I won't". That has to be the best intro of all time to a Club Random episode.

[@ChrisAlexanderFilms]

Boy George is the coolest, funniest, wittiest guest. He runs circles around Bill and Bill LOVES IT. Great chemistry here, great conversation, great entertainment, GREAT EPISODE!

[@3ClicksAndTheTruth]

BG gave Maher all he could handle & then some....& then A LOT! TBH Have to admit, a very pleasant surprise BG was to listen to...at least giving Maher a bit of credit for not screwing the pooch here (pls no inserting of low hangin fruit here) > however I get the feeling George would be transparent as such with just about Anyone else....sorry Bill

[@RhondaBenoit]

I had a gay brother who passed away last year. He was my "Big Bro", and I loved him very much, and miss him terribly. Watching this episode with BG has been like visiting my brother. George's humor, his laugh, his mannerisms are spot on with my Bro's. And his hands - the hands of a painter, an artist, look just like my brother's. I know George will never see this, but I want to thank him anyway, for making this appearance. I know this sounds ridiculous, but watching this episode at a later date, will be like getting to spend time with my brother again.

On 5 December 2008, Boy George was convicted in Snaresbrook Crown Court, London, of the April 2007 assault and false imprisonment of Audun Carlsen, a Norwegian model and male escort, who initially stood for a photography session with Boy George. Carlsen claimed that he had been handcuffed to a wall fixture and beaten with a metal chain during their next meeting,. On 16 January 2009, Boy George was sentenced to 15 months' imprisonment for these offences.

[@thebillryan]

@@Saliva1 Yes, most people are aware of that story. He was in a drug fueled cocaine rage. Shameful behaviour. However since that episode he immediately tackled his substance abuse and alcohol abuse. “I got sober in 2008. March the 2nd, 2008. I know the date exactly. I always think of that day as 'the day that I became sane,'” Boy George. Not defending the guy's behaviour, however, unlike you I believe that everyone should be offered a path to redemption.

That was awesome. Thank you, gentlemen. Boy George had Bill stomping his foot. Well done, sir.

[@lisalivingston6473]

@jonasbaas Bill's spit take must have sprinkled onto his guest. LOL! I'm not a fan of this "60 minutes" type seating. It looks so cramped and uncomfortable. I think the chairs in the other part of the room give the guest and host much more leg room. I kept thinking how uncomfortable it must have been for Boy George to sit in such a confined space for nearly two hours. I was feeling a bit claustrophobic!

[@mswolf3595]

Great interview! Boy George has always been and continues to be an amazing artist/musician!

[@RocStarr913]

I think George never recovered from the third Culture Club album in 1984. It was recorded in just six weeks. The Culture Club guitarist even said the band didn’t really want to record music at that time. The band all agreed the Waking Up With The House On Fire album was a hurried and half-hearted effort. George’s look was such a big part of Culture Club’s success and as much as their previous year’s album Colour By Numbers was such a great pop album, it gave the press and people that did not particularly care for Boy George confirmation bias that his popularity had been a fluke. His heroin addiction and subsequent arrests in Britain for it also hurt his career because he couldn’t get a work visa in America for years when he was trying to promote during his solo career. His appearances on American television had to be via satellite.

[@supertrexandroidx]

It was apparently even better than I thought while watching it, because I couldn't believe it had been an hour and 45 minutes when it ended. Went by quickly!

I'm impressed with how Boy George has rebounded. His retake on his life has certainly reaped rewards ... He's extremely health conscious, is a strict vegetarian, works out 5+ times per week. He sticks to a strict controlled diet, having no intake of fast foods or drinks, drugs. He makes his own food since he insists on having steam vegetables everyday and doesn't trust eating out, since all restaurant foods have sugars and bad fats. He's a true testament of 'You are what you eat'. I do applaud him ... 👏🏽

+100k likes for the chemistry on this one. Knowing Bill as a such a fan of music I was not disappointed by the comradery in this episode.

I just heard the greatest “ever from Bill Maher!” I’m not talking about anything because you won’t let me finish” that is exactly how every guest feels! LMFAO! That being said “ I still watch every episode”💪🔥❤️

On 5 December 2008, Boy George was convicted in Snaresbrook Crown Court, London, of the April 2007 assault and false imprisonment of Audun Carlsen, a Norwegian model and male escort, who initially stood for a photography session with Boy George. Carlsen claimed that he had been handcuffed to a wall fixture and beaten with a metal chain during their next meeting,. On 16 January 2009, Boy George was sentenced to 15 months' imprisonment for these offences

I think that you are gay

[@danadelaplante6797]

[@tishw4576]

Great interview. BG is a music encyclopedia. He is so adorable and funny.

[@TadashiNazuka]

Boy George is a Legend. We Love Him. Me and my wife grew up with his music. We still Love him and his style and persona has stood strong the test of time.

[@brek5]

Lol, the Sly & Fam Stone lick, one of the most famous ever, and Bill's like, "Must be a deep cut," ROFL.

Culture Club….it was an amazing and memorable concert I attended in the 1980s!❤️🎶⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@DonnieDorko477]

Painfully good episode. It was such a pleasure to watch them very obviously enjoy being around each other so much.

[@kenmarvin370]

BOY GEORGE- "Hats have to wear you." Brilliant.

[@nlaco-m1h]

Is it just me, or is Boy G 100 times smarter and faster thinking than poor old Bill... Boy G is being very patient and kind in this talk.

[@ChazeGeyer]

Not quite a 100 times but definitely can flip the script, very spontaneous, keeps Bill on his toes

[@runner1984]

Really? 2009 Audun Carlsen. I wonder how he feels.

[@PurpleHazeVanNederlands]

Bill couldn't handle someone being more intelligent than him while also having a higher EQ

[@ChazeGeyer]

@@PurpleHazeVanNederlands Perceptive, an EQ rating at first I thought you meant IQ score. Must agree BG responses were intelligent, quick, very intuitive and did seem to be more “emotionally mature, reasoned” ❤️BG!
