Boy George says he never imprisoned a male escort last year.

He pleaded not guilty to the charge at a hearing today in London, the Associated Press reports.

The former Culture Club singer, 46, was charged with false imprisonment last November.

Auden Carlsen, 28, told London's Daily Mail that he met Boy George on the website Gaydar and agreed to go back to his flat to take photographs.

Carlsen claimed that George then pulled out a box of whips and sex toys and told him, “Now you’ll get what you deserve," and tied him up.

“I was convinced I was going to die,” Carlsen told the paper. He said he yanked the hook off the wall and fled to the police.

A trial begins in November.

I think Boy George likes the publicity from the looks of his picture above. I imagine he would do just about anything to get some attention. Isn't that what it was all about with him all along?
