Singer speak out about arrest ordeal
Sunday, 19 November 2006
Boy George says he drank his own urine in prison.
The singer, who was arrested in New York on October 2005 over a false burglary claim, has revealed that he sipped his own wee because he thought he might dehydrate in jail.
He explains: 'I was taken into the catacombs of the jailhouse. There was p*** everywhere. I kept saying: "Can I have water?"
'In the end I drank my own p*** because I thought I was going to die of dehydration. I did think, "Maybe I'm never going to get out of here."'
But the 45-year-old – who was eventually bailed and given community service sweeping the streets of Manhattan – reckons the experience wasn't in the least bit humiliating.
He tells The Sunday Times magazine: 'I didn't mind doing something productive. I wanted to get it over with. I found it very unfascinating. It was surreal but not boring.'
