I ought to point out that the 1985 pic of "Boy" George O'Dowd was taken at the pinnicle of his heroin addiction. The 'after' pic is taken at the height of Boy George's Boy George addiction.I have an issue of 'Smash Hits' circa 1985 with a big photo feature special of Boy George taking a holiday at Disney World. There he is, standing next to Mickey. There he is, standing next to Goofy. With hindsight, he is SO obviously skagged out of his fucking mind whilst incongriously performing half-hearted PR for his (then) ailing pop career it's a gem of genius music journalism. Dark glasses, shaved head, filthy frumpy clothes covered in stains of food, glue and 'other'. Did the photographer know? The chances are very much so that he did. Welcome to Smash Hits circa 1985. If my scanner was working I'd share it with y'all. -------------------- Der der der-der DER! Der der der-der DER! DER!
