This is the news we were afraid was right around the corner: Boy George has been arrested in London after allegedly kidnapping a male escort and chaining him to the wall.

The escort told the British tab The Sun that, "It’s ironic that his biggest hit was 'Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?' -- because I’m sure he did want to hurt me. I was convinced I was going to die."

The escort was able to wrench a hook from the wall and fled George's East London apartment wearing only his pants.

George was arrested by police for false imprisonment and assault, but has since been bailed out.

Boy George has a long, distinguished history with the police (not the ones with Sting either). Especially notable was his arrest for falsely reporting a burglary, after which he was sentenced to sweep the streets in Manhattan last year.
