You know what amazes me about Boy George? It's his tenacious staying power, his stamina. No matter what adversities he's been through he just keeps picking himself back up and keeps going. He's still working, still famous, and still creating. I couldn't doit if I'd been through everything he has, I don't think many people could.

I don't care what people thin, I've always admired George. He has a great voice, and he's very articulate.

Baby Boy George, so young yet so brilliant!

Boy George is a very clever young man. I'm impressed.

boy george is an intellectual among the youngsters.. . with lots of heart.. . i'm amuse!!!

how could you not love him

Great to see George being so honest in this interview he is worth listening to, Love You George.

Boy George was living in Walsall at this time in a flat above a shop along with Martin Degville (sat next to George in this clip). Roger Taylor of Duran Duran (who were just forming) frequently spent nights at the flat in Goodall Street with Martin. George and Martin were often seen at clubs in Birmingham which is about 10 miles south of Walsall.

BOY GEORGE WAS A LEGEND IN THE MAKING !!!!!!

Omg Boy George was so young in that interview.

40 yrs later Boy George is still punk, I'd love to see what that young little punk is wearing today

He couldn't have put it more simply: "Why do you dress like that?" "Because I want to".

he was very comfortable in his skin and gave some good advice to those kids.

He had a world of wisdom even then.... brilliant

He always had a good brain on him did George , an individual, good luck to him .

Boy George is so right! I bet those girls felt stupid when Boy George was on top of the charts. I dress up and I walk away from people who have a go at me!!

The year I was born. Born to love💜💜 boy george!!!

His accent is really cockney here! The other guy is Martin Degvile, even at this age he was a very sparky person.

Georgey is a witty chap, with an incredible capacity of counter-argumentation (check other further tv interviews), and a good lyricist too. I never bought his music but i've heard it on the radio - soulful and competently made. It's a media product, morphing into song, and it cheers up your day. In 95 i was surprised by the quality of the Cheapness and Beauty album, which i found very solid, outstanding even, and being then professionally involved with radio, i played it quite often during that year. I was raised on TG/PTV/DIJ/C93/KJoke...and Motorhead, but i guess one must be really deaf forever to ignore the powerful songs and music on that record. Cheers from Portugal.

i was 9 when this was taped, boy george was so good with talking to kids he dont give a crap what anyone says about him how he dresses im the same way hes my fav singer since i was a kid n still is

Boy has always been good for speeches

George is very charismatic & articulate in this video.

70s and 80s was the best generation

His brilliance!!

I love how boy g. Talks here.. Its soothing.. I dress weird too. Cos i feel like it myself..

George looks fabulous!

He was only 17 or 18 years old here.

How adorable!

Who is that idiot at the end ! I really want to see his face after a few years later when DO YOU REALLY ANT TO HURT ME was at the top of charts and make him realized of who he was making fun of ! Don't touch my BOY he is always perfect !

Boy George is fantastic

Several years before culture club. It was not an act for him. Love Boy.

lovely Boy George xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

He `s 18 years old there !!! !

Donde encuentro la entrevista completa? esta hermosa y George tan bello y chiquito je

Wow, super dupe rare. And this must have been the episode with The Specials as musical guests because I see some of the members in the audience.

It’s. I wonder he was so successful. 2019 and he still believes in everything he says.

Yes, Boy is clever and very articulate. I was wondering what the man's concentration camp pajamas outfit was about at the end? And the grape?

I love him. He’s so smart. And he wasn’t kidding when he said how he dressed in Culture Club is the watered down version of how he used to dress before he got famous.

WOW Boy George is so sane and clear

Great video. I was really enjoying listening to what he had to say until the prat in his pyjamas ruined it with his grapes. Incidentally the guy with george is martin degville, lead singer of sigue sigue sputnik.

nothing but love for Mr Odowdy .hes the best.

Very rare...Thank you.

wow!! , surprised to see this,

Wooo.. Boy George genial. 😍

03:45 Bloody hell, what was in those grapes?!

... grandios ... thank you for this interview, you know

Love what he says here, very cool.

Alguien que lo traduzca por favor

Boy George Más Joven igual de Bello💓

Don't understand the point at the end that stupid in pyjamas ate the grapes. For what? And Boy George, always intelligent and not talking crap about what he wanted to try to delivered.

Je ne comprends pas très bien l'anglais donc je rate des conversations intéressantes dans cette vidéo...boy George semble maîtriser la situation et connaître son sujet.🤔 niveau discussion.👍

How I love THIS George, I wish Karma Chameleon never happened. I die for Martin's fabric design, both looking so FAB!

You can tell the guy besides him was so cringed out by the entire exchange, and gave the best response in a few short sentences, obviously dressing differently invites lots of attention, and George just won't shut up yapping on and on, jeez.

He's always been the truth- dont fight; do your own thing; move along.😊

Georgy

Boy george in bbc

All I can say is that this is the same George O'Dowd that appeared on talk shows just a couple of years later when he hit it big with Culture Club. Fame have not changed him at all.

Boy George had a really strong London accent back then.

Español porfavor

great

Anyone else notice that someone quitely called Boy George a wanker don't know who but they do. What's the point of the grapes ?? And I bet the girl in beginning and that boy at the end Were really gutted when Boy George became famous. P.s. Sorry for swearing

omg George was 18 here

Dam that was a awsome discussion but show is pretty trippy though.

Podrían subtitular al español estas entrevistas. Gracias

He’s smart but he looks like a young man educating teens. Top bloke love him.

Great footage but what's up with the grapes?

❤ TE AMO MI BOY GEORGE TE AMO mucho pero no te entiendo nada que esta diciendo alguien que melo traduzca al español por favor gracias ❤❤❤❤❤

OK Boy George was good here, but the kid with the grapes deserves an Oscar js

Everyone is confused about the grape thing at the end....surprised I didn't see an answer to it. My guess is that it was a running gag on the show? Like to control the flow (or in this instance ruin it) they had a stooge character jump in with the grape bit and then cut to commercial? How far off am I?

It doesn't take courage to stand up to bullies, it takes intelligence. Something Boy George knows, but this woman doesn't..

Yep!! Hard to believe! lol!

Wow, Boy George is literally dressed like the Joker...where is Batman when you need him. Every bit is the joker, down to the gloves

big up to my dad massive blonde hair at the back 😂😂

I thought that was Steve Strange until she started talking!!!!!!!

It looks like the group were part punk, part romantic. Is it Kirk Brandon last row to right? It may look like George didn't care what people think but how could anyone not. Straight guys fell for him but proclaimed "I'm straight".

what the hell was the last bit about

end LOL

Never realized how much he looked like the Joker...

⏳🙌👑🎶🌃💕🇵🇪

Thats marilin near boy george? Boy george make up like?

Didn’t be write in his book that he beat up a guy?

Who is Martin?

Kids now are all like sheep. No individuals

is that Steve Strange's twin sister at the start?

I thought 'Teds' were 1950s (teddy boys).

is it just me or does BG nose look rather large here wonder if he had a nose job, it looks smaller in later vids

AMAZING! especially since he was forced to wear a uniform in Catholic school. Another "recovering Catholic".............

Wow! It's so funny to hear him speak from back then. I can barely understand what he's saying.🙂

Boy george hair?

WHY THEY INTERVIEW TYO BOY GOERGE IF IN THAT TIME , HE WASN´R FAMOUS!!

Martin d with b George

This was essentially me in the mid 80's.

there is a situation you no like with people you no like ??why you must fight?? ìs stupid and ignorant walk away and pass.....BIG BOY GEORGE

The ending was so random

Why is the guy at the end quesrioning them whole wearing a Nazi Concentration Camp outfit?

Fallen 🇬🇧🤦

Pity the parents 😅

TBh he used to be very mean. hs used to fight ppl because of hate

is not george

zzzzzzzzzzzz
