Boy George (born George Alan O'Dowd; 14 June 1961) is an English singer-songwriter, DJ, fashion designer, and photographer. He is the lead singer of the Grammy- and Brit Award-winning pop band Culture Club. At the height of the band's fame, during the 1980s, they recorded global hit songs such as "Do You Really Want To Hurt Me", "Time (Clock of the Heart)", and "Karma Chameleon", and George was known for his soulful voice and androgynous appearance. He was part of the English New Romantic movement which emerged in the late 1970s to the early 1980s.
