'Boy George: Artwork or Art Theft?'

Is Boy George a genius or just copying Kylie Minogue? That’s what fans are asking after seeing the artwork for his new single, "Religion." The image shows him with his signature hat and beard against a sunset backdrop. Sounds familiar? It should, because it looks a lot like Kylie's album art for "Tension," which came out in September. Fans have been quick to point out the similarities online. One fan wrote, “I know every masterpiece has its cheap copy, but what is this?” Another wondered if Boy George lost a bet with Kylie or if it's an elaborate publicity stunt. Some even questioned if he was trying to cover up a bad song.

Boy George responded on social media by saying he’s recycling everything and that fashion is catching on too. When someone called him names, he replied that he’s an "utter genius." He also joked about writing Kylie's hit song "Padam Padam," which was actually written by Ina Wroldsen and Lostboy. Boy George will be back on Broadway in "Moulin Rouge" until May 12. He has had his share of controversies with pop divas, including Madonna, who he says is too full of herself to acknowledge him. Despite all this, Boy George continues to write and perform, believing that practice makes perfect.
