Dunno why this is very amusing to me; way more than it should be.

"You think you're better than me?" he yelled. "Go home. Let me do my community service."

Boy George took to the streets of Manhattan as a Department of Sanitation worker wearing an orange vest, dark capri pants, shoes without socks, and without the wild makeup and androgynous style that made him so recognizable as the '80s icon who sang "Karma Chameleon" and "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?"

"This is supposed to be making me humble. Let me do this," he said. "I just want to do my job."

It was Leno the other night who said Boy George's community service was picking up trash in the park ... "isn't that what got George Michael in trouble?"

I dunno. I don't think capri pants are Boy George's best look.

They look great on you, though, right?

What can I say? I have fabulous ankles.

 

[Idaho]

Just stay away from the hotpants. Your thighs are anything but fabulous -- or so I've heard.

Look who's talking, Mr. Shiny Bike Shorts.

Well, I do have fabulous thighs. What can I say? 8).

But at least I keep them spandex clad instead of parading around in hot pants.

This is my favorite line:
"He petitioned to spend the time helping teenagers make a public service announcement. Among his other proposals to the court: holding a fashion and makeup workshop, serving as a DJ at an HIV/AIDS benefit or doing telephone outreach."

I'm not sure I'd be interested in attending a makeup workshop with Mr/s. O'Dowd.

That's enough. Too many bad mental images. :-[

Unjacking the thread:

I can see why George is a little testy.

That's probably the largest crowd to watch him work in years.

Brilliant....

This is funny, and all, but why is it even news that he's doing community service? And is that really him? If y'all hadn't pointed him out, I could have thrown an empty Starbucks cup down in front of him and never even known who he was.

"This is supposed to be making me humble."

I guess I just figured the humility would come in the past 20 years of not-mattering.

Huh.

A friend of mine just got married, and on the table at the reception entrance was a huge portrait of the couple at the beach. She forced him to wear one of those white linen suits, complete with man-pris. I told him to turn in his man card before he left for the honeymoon.

It was ****ing sad. Really sad.
