IS KARMA ABOUT TO HIT THE CHAMELEON?

Strange story breaking this evening from New York, where the wires are just reporting the arrest of Boy George. The charges, apparently, are possessing cocaine and making a false police report:

The singer, whose real name is George O'Dowd, called police from a Little Italy apartment around 3:14 a.m. and reported a burglary, said Detective Kevin Czartoryski, a police spokesman.

Officers arrived on the scene and discovered a small amount of cocaine next to a computer, police said. A woman in the apartment said there was more cocaine around and police were continuing to investigate.

A former spokesman for O'Dowd's autobiographical musical "Taboo," which closed last year, said he did not know whether the singer had a spokesman or lawyer.


That last line seems the oddest of all, really.

All a bit bizarre. Why did he call the police to report a burglary if indeed there wasn't one? Maybe he didn't call and it was a raid...
Please God don't let it be a desperate attempt to hit the headlines a la Kate Moss with a cocaine story. Call the police, leave the coke by the computer, cry outside court...
Don't get me wrong though, I adore Mr O'Dowd and wish him well...
