Boy George in the music video for his 1982 hit "
Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?" (

Both are wearing a lot of makeup.
We're just sayin'.
Here's glamtastic former "
American Idol" runner-up
Adam Lambert at a concert in NYC on Tuesday (

Culture Club lead singer
Boy George back in 2004 (

Only one was banned from "
Good Morning America" for kissing a man during an award show performance.
We're just sayin'.
Judging by
Boy George's
healthy new look, being locked up for false imprisonment of a male prostitute may have been the best thing that's ever happened to him.
George only served 4 months of his 15-month sentence.
After Boy George was sentenced to 15 months behind bars for chaining a male escort to a hook in his bedroom, his brother was a freakin' mess outside of the London courthouse today -- and it appears Georgie isn't the only one in the family with a crack problem.
At this point though, a little coin slot is the least of the brood's worries.
Wearing no makeup or his usual barrage of outlandish accoutrements, Boy George left his London home on Wednesday, looking like an engorged shell of his former self.
The 47-year-old fallen '80s singer is facing a prison sentence after being found guilty of chaining a male prostitute to a wall in his house.
Karma chameleon.
Here's 47-year-old convicted man-whore beater Boy George (

Neither of them are Long Island yentas.
We're just sayin'.
It has everything -- hookers, handcuffs, erotic photo shoots and a fallen scalp-tatted celebrity who's freedom is on the line -- welcome to the Boy George Handcuffed a Hooker Trial -- Day 1!!!
Hours ago, a London jury heard opening arguments from the prosecutor, who claimed the ex-Culture Clubber, real name George O'Dowd, hired a male model (who happened to moonlight as a male escort) to come to his home where he allegedly did the following things:
-- took erotic photographs of the male model
-- accused male model of screwing with a computer in the house
-- got a friend to help handcuff male escort and chain him to a hook in the bedroom
-- struggled with male escort, until man-whore broke free and ran away to cops.
George is facing charges of assault and false imprisonment and could get up to life in prison. Stay tuned for updates!
They say black is slimming.
With his North American tour scrapped due to legal troubles, Boy George, 47, was snapped lumbering through Ireland in his Homer Simpson funeral drag on Wednesday.
Time is like a clock of the ... pounds.
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."
In the '80s, Boy George became a pop icon as the androgynous lead singer of Culture Club.
Guess what he looks like now!
