BOY GEORGE LAUGHING ABOUT HIS ARREST ON CHARGES OF CHAINING ESCORT

Boy George has laughed off claims he imprisoned a male escort in his flat.The former Culture Club singer was arrested on Saturday after Auden Carlsen alleged George and another man had grabbed him and chained him to a wall in the star's East London home. However, George has told brother Kevin O'Dowd he finds the allegations"hilarious" and is not concerned by them. Kevin said: "George isn't at all annoyed at the allegations, in fact, he thinks it's hilarious."Yeah, he was arrested, but the police are always going to follow it up when someone makes a complaint like that."Carlsen - who claimed he had agreed to pose for photos for the 'Do You Really Want To Hurt Me' singer and was not working as an escort - says he pulled the hook from the wall and fled in his underwear before phoning the police from a nearby news agent. George was later arrested and taken to a police station. He was bailed by detectives probing assault and false imprisonment allegations. George and Carlsen met on the gay dating website Gaydar where the 28-year-old Norwegian allegedly offers his services as a $800. a night escort.
