Description
The autobiography of Boy George, the pop world's most controversial star, is a candid and entertaining account of his extraordinary life and times. Born into a working-class Irish family, George's early life was marked by a desire to be like his idol, Shirley Bassey. As the lead singer of Culture Club, he became a media darling and pop icon, but his success was also marred by fame, drugs, and a spectacular fall from grace. Writing with complete honesty and biting wit, Boy George chronicles his life of glamour, sex, and heartache. From his early days to his rise to fame, and from the highs of success to the lows of addiction and personal struggle, George pulls no punches in this highly acclaimed autobiography. With unflinching honesty, Boy George shares his story, revealing the private self that was living fabulously and wildly, yet at odds with his public image. This is a story of excess, rebellion, and ultimately, redemption.
