Why Boy George hates Madonna!
This is what I heard:
In 1983 – Boy George was at the height of his short-lived fame and Madonna was at the very early stages of her fame (“Lucky Star” was released).
They were both at a party and Madonna, liking George’s music and his sheer guts, asked to be introduced by a mutual friend.
They were and when Madonna extended a hand George looked at her like she was pond scum and turned his back to her.
Madonna’s friend was stunned and kept apologizing.
Madonna being Madonna, said, “Wait till 2 years from now – then we’ll see”.
Cut to the ‘Who’s that Girl Tour” - a HUGE success – Madonna is the official queen of pop music and the second most famous woman in the world (Princess Diana being Number One).
Boy George on the other hand has seen less than glamorous times, making a spectacle of himself on TV, being arrested on numerous drug charges and being in and out of rehab..
He out of the blue gets an invite and tickets to the hottest concert in London (“Who’s that Girl”) - backstage passes – everything - This is a boon to him because the press and record company had been merciless and cruel to him and having been impossible to deal with on the way up – he was treated like dung on the swift way down…
He goes to the concert. He goes backstage and is introduced to her. He goes on for a bit about her kindness and how wonderful she was.
Madonna stares at him. She says nothing.
She turns on her heel and walks away with a grin on her face.
And that’s called a b***slap!
