No Boy! George's Tour Out in the Cold

Posted Jul 1st 2008 3:58PM by TMZ Staff

Who really wants to hurt him?! Culture Club's frontman's plans for a North American tour have gone up in smoke because of pending charges of false imprisonment in the UK.

Much to the dismay of children of the 80s, the singer -- real name George O'Dowd has canceled plans for his upcoming summer tour because U.S. immigration officials won't let him into the country.

In a statement, George said "I am very sorry that I will not see all my American fans this year, but I wish them a happy and healthy Fourth of July."

10. George - get rid of that makeup - you look like John Wayne Gacy - the murderer. That makeup is scary.

11. Seriously, I know every odd-ball has his/her own fans, but are there people that would really pay to see Boy George? I'm thinking maybe the whole "Americans won't let me in their country!" is a cop-out for poor interest in ticket sales.
