Jon Moss in depth interview part 1

=D

[@AngloAm]

There will never be another Culture Club, no matter what comes along. Every note from every song was like a promise of what life could be.

[@pretty312]

Jon Moss is a very sweet, very down to earth, humble person! Love him!

[@anthonycbrown1952]

It is very pleasing to see all of Culture Club sane and healthy. It must of been very stressful to be the trailblazers they were at the time. Suddenly their private lives became the subject of public interest but Jon appears to have been the 'rock' that kept the band together despite all the ups and downs.

[@galenstone9097]

At least Moss has been honest about his time with George, unlike Gavin Rossdale, pretending that he and Marilyn weren't lovers, then having the unmitigated gall to call a five year relationship "experimentation" as though Marilyn were a one-night stand. I applaud the fact that George and Jon have been able to become friends again..

[@deerheart87]

Gavins such a douche tho I mean Gwen was always too good for him shes to die for

[@audrad8605]

Excuse me!!! Jon NEVER ADMITTED TO HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH BOY, IT ONLY TOOK JON 30YRS TO SAY IT OUT LOUD.. SO KNOW WHAT UR TALKIN ABOUT B4 JOTTING IT DOWN..💥

[@annikawaters5094]

@@audrad8605 What? He's been open about it since at least 1998, which was the first time he was openly asked about it (because that was the first reunion). I know George bangs on about how 'Jon has never said he loved me' but there are interviews from that time where Jon discusses the sexual and romantic nature of their relationship. Here's one interview, for example, from 1999: www.independent.ie/woman/celeb-news/did-you-really-want-to-hurt-each-other-26260451.html

[@audrad8605]

@@annikawaters5094 i seen a interview with Jon Moss in 1990 about there & he denied it!! Now if anyone out there seen that interview pls chime in.. i think Jon was married had children on the way * wasnt cool to admit to it. Yes he admitted it in 1998, 2000 when he got older he realized hes hurting some1 he loved at 1 time & yes now he will admit it in a sec but he still looks uncomfortable.. thats all..

[@annikawaters5094]

@@audrad8605 I'm not saying it didn't make him uncomfortable, but to say it took him 30 years to admit that he loved George is just plain wrong.

I am too a huge fan. Every Culture Club album has its gems including their last album "Don't Mind If I Do". Jon Moss is the master mind!!! Randy Chicago, IL USA

[@felicitydeikos5250]

Jon Moss needs to be back with Culture Club. Jon Moss knows how to manage / what's good for the band. George is just too pufffed up with PRIDE, SELFISHNESS AND HATING HIS " OLD" FINANCIALLY STRUGGLING FANS " that couldn't afford $1.5K to see him as a VIP IN MEET AND GREET. (2016) I told George, that I don't have money like this, however I was willing to pay something more affordable in 2016 to see him, he told me to " Fuck off" And this is the truth! Which is why I do hate him alot, since 2016. He basically told me the real " truth" about his Old fans (that are first/ second generation of fans) if they can't afford to " pay good money to see ME(George )they can p**** off" I was shocked when he told me this in 2016!!!! Maybe something to do with PK? I don't know But the rich pride, pufffed up selfish George he's BECOME I very much hate it! Esp.HIM! Jon Moss was nothing like this but a sweet humble person with a caring good heart. George was only good in his younger days in Culture Club. To the fans whom assume George has a good heart, BEHIND THE SPOTLIGHT, Think AGAIN!!!!!

[@johnmcquilkin]

@@felicitydeikos5250 very true!

[@sjoannebrown9305]

Yes he still does look good . Some people have that gift

[@nwlman]

Love Jon and Culture Club, they are the best band ever, great music

[@123456789jklmn]

Jon, Aged gracefully! Great interview.

[@yoya4766]

He's so cute, sweet, intelligent and has retained his boyish charm.

[@annagitana1]

People get upset because he doesn't hide the fact that he dated a man. I guess it's okay to most homophobes if a straight guy has a relationship or has sex with another guy as long as they feel shame and deny it (Kirk Brandon, ahem). This man is probably inherently mostly straight but fell for this one person. So what?

[@cam2158]

annagitana1 bisexual not straight, he dated a man and then married to a woman he is bi

[@naturalkinkycurlymarie7496]

*He's straight,* not bisexual. He's not interested in men and he should know because he's around men all the time. He experimented back in the day like a lot of people did back then and today. Only difference is that no one knows unless it's someone famous. He's been married with Children and after his divorce in 2010 has been dating his longtime girlfriend. He said he's not about that, he's heterosexual. We know ourselves and who we really are. I'll take his words and action over anyone's assumptions.

[@fiona333]

There's nothing wrong with the way Jon looks! He's 52 now! He looks fine for his age. He's not fat or bald! He's not into himself. He hasnt had Botox or plastic surgery like the other celebrities. Stop picking on Jon!

[@suzannel8926]

Mikey spotted George first and asked him to join a band.

[@katenash8891]

No one makes me laugh like Jon! I like him because he's a real genuine person. The PR people haven't got to him yet and taken away his personality and told him what to say. George is a zombie PR person now.

[@jokerroddy]

Time is my fav... I love Victim, and WAR too ❤️❤️❤️

[@picoharmotimpo]

Still looking great. God, I loved him as a teen!

[@deep71483]

George didn't hate it, he actually liked the movie.

[@tashpope1]

I love how he says when he was with Boy George he feels the presence of a star and a nutcase.

[@steveb987881]

I have had the biggest crush on him ever since I was 7 years old. He still looks good.

[@BgbadWulof]

I loved Culture Club. But for some reason I tend to like the Victims the best.

[@ashe984]

Yeah this man then omg so gorgeous.

[@ANAP89]

good interview,i have never ever seen this on TV

[@powrxplor69]

"that's the way" hands down their best song....very underrated, should've been a single...

[@fiona333]

Jon looks fine. He doesn't look that different. He's just older. IN the old pictures he had makeup and his scar was touched up, not like in this video. If he looked so different, people wouldn't still recognize him. So sick of all of you picking on him.

[@christopherwinstanley1348]

Appreciate those that have stayed with the music industry, that type of itegrety. Culture Club was very high profile and Boy Goerge vocals are very distinctive. The music stays with you, must be original. Clock.. Black Money.. Victims..

[@deep71483]

George, back in the day, did not seem like a person that was easy to get along with. I wish all the Boy george stans will lay off Jon.

[@juanitacalvarado9773]

Someone said that he was honest with George but still he should have said something way before he fell in love with this man yet he let George carres him and think there would be something that makes me sad

[@deep71483]

Aw, he is still a cutie! Very intelligent and witty man too!

[@bjorn5dec]

In about 2 weeks, my band group is going to play his song 'Quantum'! Excited for it!

[@ANAP89]

Jon is very tallented I love him!

[@jasminefur]

Interesting interview!

[@fiona333]

Never date a person whose initials are God like Jon did. If you do everyone will say you are a horrible person for breaking up with God because God is great and knows it all and is always right. Jon needs to be punished forever for breaking up with God!

[@fiona333]

He still is a good looking guy. He really doesn't look that different. A lot of the old pictures of him were touched up to cover up his scar and make him look perfect. Why is George allowed to age and no one says anything, but people tear apart Jon? Its not fair.

[@audrad8605]

Honest??? Ru kidding me.. He use to deny his love for Boy George... He finally said it on here cos he's 60 the past is the past... U have no idea what UR talkin about. U must either be very young or don't know culture clubs history, thanku 💞

[@papimami3]

What did you think of, "Worried about the Boy?" So sad the way Boy George 💔 was treated.

[@sylviaruiz754]

I agree!!! In many old interviews he wouldn't even want to acknowledge George or didn't want to say anything about him. Practically denying the relationship between them. Hurtful for George. Maybe that's why he said the things he did in his book. Now thankfully things are much better between them. I'm so proud of George continuing to do music. I love them al!!l❤🎶😍❤✌I wish them all success in all they do.❤🙏

[@fiona333]

And they're not George's songs alone. The songs belong equally to all four of them. George throwing a fit over the new CC was just George being selfish as usual. Jon loved playing the songs. What right did George have to deny him that?

[@felicitydeikos5250]

I just hate what George has become, a selfish greedy shit!

[@audrad8605]

Omg I loved Jon back in the early 80ies I was like 24yrs old & my mom alwayed watched mtv & she told me that Jon Moss went out with Boy George, I was like no way Ma, well she was rite, & I’m at Bingo with my mom & she says to this young girl, Do u like wild boyz, omg I flipped, I said Ma u can’t ask her that!! The girl & my mom lol said No that’s Duran Duran’s new song/album, funny, my mother watched mtv more then me..🎶🎶🎶💐💐💐💐💐

[@fiona333]

How do you get that? Jon is a down to earth person.

[@garrymac6928]

the first love of my life xx

[@fiona333]

Jon and Mikey asked George numerous times to be part of a CC revival. George is the one who said no and walked away from the band. He claimed he hated the 80's and didn't want to do the older songs anymore and said the other guys only care about money. But now George does all the CC songs with his new band and doesn't invite Jon or Mikey because he needs money to play his lawyers. The new CC is now over. This interview was done years before the new CC thing.

[@fiona333]

@lotemal10 What's the big deal? There are lots of people who have had relationships with people of both genders at various points in time. I don't know why Jon gets so much grief for that. He's not the only one. Some people fall in love with the person not the gender of the person.

[@nwlman]

Love Jon dont see enough of him, wish he and Culture Club were still going, Roy and Mikey were good looking as well.

[@fiona333]

This was done in 2002 before the reformed Culture Club. That reform thing wasn't Jon's idea. He didn't want to do it. It was all the idea of Tony Gordon, CC's manager. The reform CC thing was mistake just like George has made mistakes with drugs and the escorts. Why are George's mistakes forgiven but Jon's aren't?

[@MsSmartiepants2]

@shanad5 Why does that make him full of himself? He was burned by George writing a tell all book about him. He wants privacy. If you date someone, you shouldn't sell it to the press if you have morals.

[@fiona333]

How did he lie about how he and George met? His version of them meeting is the same as in George's autobiography. Is George lying too?

[@raeray2235]

saw Culture Club on tour in Cincinnati, last year, and they put on a tremendous, high energy, sexy show! Moss is still sexy af!

It isn't actually true...if you read interviews of George talking about the movie "worreid about the boy" he doesn't hate the movie at all.He likes the movie an the actors interpretations and he's ok with it...so this isn't true. Movies are not real life anyway, so you'll never know what happend really between the two and who was the jerk and why. But George's book can tell a good part of it.

[@deelightandbrite]

lovely ...

[@fiona333]

Name one thing he said that makes his sound full of himself? The fact is you can't. You just don't like him because you are a Boy George fan.

People really don't understand that the new romantic scene in my opinion gave an sexual experimental vibe. Anyone who wasn't bisexual definitely was during that time. Some of them are now in hetero relationships.

[@MattAttack54]

His Best work was with the Punk Band London !!!!

[@fiona333]

Did all of you see the movie, Worried about the Boy? Mat Horne portaryed Jon as the charming loving person he really is not the monster Boy George fans think he is. Best movie ever. You have to see it. George hated it. I guess because it didn't show Jon as all bad and George as all perfect.

[@audrad8605]

Yes I just seen “Worried about the boy” it was just ok, too weird with the drug scenes with his dad back & forth from beginning to that, it wasn’t made correctly cos of that, if they was doing a movie bout Boy George’s beginning then just do that but not back & forth to drugs & his cornered father, no didn’t like that part at all, confusing too... The guy who played George was great but no way did he look like Boy. I guess he’s a British actor cos I never heard of him nor seen him b4 this movie!, so now if someone can tell me if Taboo is gonna be a movie I would appreciate it, thanks. I love everyone in c.c. Mikey got sex appeal bout him especially when he winks, Roy is very good looking dude, he was a dad at a young age, & he is the rocker 4 sure, Jon, omg I was in love with him when they 1st came out in 1982, he was so fine & , the funny thing is I never paid much attention to Boy George back in the 8oies, but now since I seen cc in A.C. NJ in August 2018 I am obsessed with George. I watch every single interview with him & when he was young on Phil Donahue he is so intelligent, funny, mesmerizing, gorgeous, his eyes are like mine green but change colors. I’m in love with Boy & I would love to be friends with him .. I would love to be his lover but he don’t go out with women so I’ll take the friendship 🎶🎶❤️❤️❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️💕💕💕✝️✝️✝️✝️⭐️⭐️⭐️🙏🙏🙏💰💰💰💰☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@felicitydeikos5250]

Oh dear, you know George was married to a man in the early 2000s in the USA. I think that you are" in love" with is the idea of being in love with Boy George Infatuated with George . He said long time ago He doesn't want to marry, he likes his single gay lifestyle.

[@thedarthflagger]

@powrxplor69 you're mistaking dead or alive with culture club. doa remade "that's the way"

[@RailMePapa]

@MsSmartiepants2 I know Gerorge is somewhat of a jerk, believe me I've herd all the stories. Don't get me wrong I love culture club and I really do love George and Jon. . .mostly (and, ok, I apoligize for saying Jon deserved it) I was just ticked at the 'tell all book' comment really cus most of the book wasn't focused on him. As for Jon and George being friends now, good for them. In either of their situations I don't think I'd speak to the other again so I praise their forgiveness.

[@MsSmartiepants2]

@GlambertAngel13 I'm sorry, if I offended you. I guess you are young. But when you grow up and have an adult relationship, you will realize it's not black and white and if you break up, it's not one person's fault.

he gets grief for it? really? well its nobodies business - and it was 30 years ago... wow, some peeps need to get out more

[@MsSmartiepants2]

@deep71483 I hope so too! George says they are friends now so since his fans follow everything he says and does, maybe they will leave Jon alone. I do wish that George could say that he thinks Jon did love him and set the people straight who said Jon only cares about money. It's almost anti-Semetic. If Jon wasn't Jewish, I wonder if people would say that.

[@MsSmartiepants2]

@GlambertAngel13 Get with the times. George has now said he regrets revealing so much about his personal life in that book and saying so many terrible things about Jon. If Jon was such a jerk, why are he and George friends now? Hating on Jon is so old and tired. They both fought in their relationship but that doesn't make them jerks. Are you so perfect? Don't you ever fight with your boyfriend?

[@MsSmartiepants2]

@GlambertAngel13 If you want to judge Jon and call him a jerk, go ahead but if you do, you have to judge George harshly too for handcuffing the escort to the wall and beating him. If you don't, you are a hypocrite. I used to say bad things about George, but I've quit now. Stop with the judgments and hatred because both George and Jon are part of CC. You must love them both, if you listen to CC songs. If you don't , throw away all your CC records and don't go to a CC concert.

[@laetileroi5935]

And I play the crying game. Because before I bought the film very. Appreciated only story of love and tragedy.. I love it all of you. Mainly the music. Is indémodable.... I am sure..... Now it's very popular money of industry. Of disc's for my opinions you are alllwys in the time sons are graved in ours personality of liste.n.me it's like this. Take care with you.... Everybody.

[@fiona333]

I have a right to my feelings. It's wrong how people attack Jon for everything. If Jon is really as bad as you all say, how come George is friends with him now?

[@fiona333]

Do you think Jon should get plastic surgery like Madonna? Would you love him then?

[@shapolfab]

The interviewer is such a bore! he sounds like he reciting something from a school book!

[@fiona333]

@Gray99 George is the leader of what? CC was about all four of them working together. No one was the leader or better than any of the rest. You think Jon needs a makeover. Well, I think George needs one. George needs to stop wearing the same suit and hat every day. I'm a real woman and happy being who I am. I have no idea what you are going on about. Why are BG fans such jerks?

[@MsSmartiepants2]

@deep71483 Of course he does! But then anyone would look better than George does now! George used to be so beautiful. I can't understand his current look at all. It's horrible with bad makeup, ugly clothes and fatness. Get it together, George!

[@fiona333]

Jon is still a very handsome guy! He doesn't look that different just older with a few wrinkles.

[@MsSmartiepants2]

@3909clancy Grow up. You just hate Jon because he broke up with your precious George. Get over it. How come no one ever picks on Roy or Mikey for how they look? Because they didn't date George.

He is so plain in expression, always been; but he spotted the star and started things going. Good manager. But sexy, attractive? I almost feel guilty that I don't see what most people here see.

I dont get this man in the 80s...someday he's gay and somday he's straight???

[@fiona333]

Actually it wasn't. The new CC thing started with Mikey and Phil Pickett. But everyone blames Jon because he is George's ex-boyfriend. George was the one that walked away from CC and when they asked him to perform with them George said no. So if you didn't like CC with Sam blame George!

[@bdweightexer]

I guess so. He mentions his kid is 5. He's in his 40's now. I think he was weakly gay. George O' Boyle was really in love with him for a long time. Look at the photos of them together. Boy george is always on him. Not in the other direction. Jon is very masculine looking and acting. Its normal for really gay guys ie George, to go crazy for masculine guys. Jon was clearly the male in this relationship. And I think he ended it.

It was a one-time past thing because they worked so close together and Boy was like a pretty girl. He wasn't the only one back then, many people experimented that way then moved on with their lives like he has for more than 3 Decades now.
