Photograph by Jessica Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Hansson. Image appears under the Boy George is, like many middle-aged queers, a survivor. And, like many pop icons, Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike one of the main trials he has had to survive is his own fame. License Version 2.5. The Boy George persona, which came to international attention with the success of the band Culture Club in the early 1980s, threatened to overshadow completely Boy George the performer. However, George's talent, resilience, and genuine affability have seen him through his band's breakup, his own drug addiction, an unexpected solo comeback, and a 1998 reunion with Culture Club. Retaining his sense of style and eclecticism throughout, George has proved he is not merely a stage persona, but also a real original and a gay pioneer. Born in Bexleyheath, a cheerless section of South London, on June 14, 1961, George Alan O'Dowd was the third of six children born to working class Irish parents. His father, a builder and boxing coach, and his mother, who worked in a nursing home, had little attention to spare to give emotional support to their children, especially little George, who showed signs of being "different" from a very early age. He often showed up at church in outlandish hats and platform shoes. Indeed, the eccentric clothes he wore to school got him assigned to a class for incorrigibles.

FRANNY'S CANDIES “I roll the Kettledrum candy in my mouth.” Franny pictures herself chewing on Boston Fruit Slices and her jaw flexes automatically. “Chewy wedges taste lemon and lime and go BOOM-bah-BOOM when I bite into one.” She adds, “When I unwrap a second Kettledrum out of its tight parchment, I examine the sour and sugar-copper rind. They are better enjoyed in pairs. Tomás, why aren’t Kettledrum candies hard? Like Lifesavers or Butterscotches? When they clink against your teeth, they could sound like a snare or a top hat. I can hear a soft bass rumble a tympani symphony deep within me. I swear, the Kettledrums make my voice go baritone when I sing BOOM-bah-BOOM after eating one. It’s true: I’ve tried it!” Franny confesses this to me under her gummy-bear breath and I agree unconditionally the way a best friend must. We come here because most of her schoolmates do not make their way down the block to Doña Dolce.

Still her mother brought her halfway around the world to UC Davis, where four years of treatments and surgeries took their toll on her body and her childhood, but ultimately reversed the disease. Azadeh might have turned away from her grueling past. Instead she chose to embrace it. Today, as a volunteer for support programs at UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, she helps other young people facing similar cancer challenges. Here, she offers others not only access to practical resources, but also something more profound: a survivor’s understanding and empathy.

  • Culture Club – Primary Wave Music
    CULTURE CLUB facebook.com/BoyGeorgeOfficial instagram.com/cultureclubofficial twitter.com/RealCultureClub Imageyoutube.com/channel/UCdfnMLE8x991WuXK- not found or type unknown 3SRgNQ boygeorgeandcultureclub.net en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culture_Club open.spotify.com/artist/6kz53iCdBSqhQCZ21CoLcc Few new wave groups were as popular as Culture Club. During the early ’80s, the group racked up seven straight Top Ten hits in the U.K. and six Top Ten singles in the U.S. with their light, infectious pop-soul. Though their music was radio-ready, what brought the band stardom was Boy George, the group’s charismatic, cross- dressing lead singer. George dressed in flamboyant dresses and wore heavy makeup, creating a disarmingly androgynous appearance that created a sensation on early MTV. George also had a biting wit and frequently came up with cutting quips that won Culture Club heavy media exposure in both America and Britain. Although closely aligned with the new romantics — they were both inspired by Northern soul and fashion — Culture Club had a sharper pop sense than their peers, and consequently had a broader appeal. However, their time in the spotlight was brief. Not only could they not withstand the changing fashions of MTV, but the group was fraught with personal tensions, including Boy George’s drug addiction. By 1986, the group had broken up, leaving behind several singles that rank as classics of the new wave era. The son of a boxing club manager, Boy George (b. George O’Dowd, June 14, 1961), found himself attracted to the glam rock of T. Rex and David Bowie as a teenager.

  • Chapter 18 Pop and Alternative Styles
    chapter 18 Pop and Alternative Styles When I was young, there was a lot of respect “for clowning in rock music - look at Little Richard. It was a part of the whole thing, and I always also believed that it released the audience.” –BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN 274 cha25184_ch18_274-287.indd 274 2/21/14 9:32 AM Pop and Alternative Styles 275 he eighties were a great time for rock fans who wanted to be entertained by their favorite singers with a variety of video images and dancing. Cable televi- T sion and video stations such as MTV allowed fans to see their favorite stars performing any time of the day or night. Many talented rock singers, particularly those who were also good dancers, became superstars overnight when their performances were viewed as well as heard by their fans: Prince, Madonna, and the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, are only some of the most prominent of those stars. Another trend of the early eighties was a pop style called New Romanticism, which started in British nightclubs of the late-seventies and popularized a kind of fl amboy- antly androgynous image in the eighties. New Romanticism included such bands as Duran Duran (early in their career), the Culture Club, and Bow Wow Wow. Different from the androgynous look of some punk and metal performers of the seventies, the New Romantics wore makeup, but dressed in frilly, lacy, shirts and jackets infl uenced by nineteenth-century Victorian fashions. Other looks were soon added to the style. New Romanticism didn’t last long, but it added an important new look and pop musi- cal style to the decade.
