Culture Club Minus Boy George = Gayer, Somehow
Frontmen are supposed to be crazy, and very few singers today have matched the nuttiness of Boy George over the years, but who on Earth would ever consider replacing him in the 80s band Culture Club?
Apparently the Club has done just that, and not only does LAist disagree with the choice, but so does George himself. Calling Sam Butcher "dreadful" and "terrible" to the BBC, NME reports that the elder cross-dressing crooner calls the younger one a poor replacement.
"To me, the mark of a good band is when someone else can't successfully sing their songs, and he can't sing my songs," reports the Brit music magazine. The new group will be called Culture Club Reborn and will begin touring the UK in Decemeber.
