T
he
Voice newcomer Boy George had TV bosses pressing the panic button after
he said he had slept with American singer-songwriter Prince. He made
the outrageous claim during live auditions for the BBC1 singing show.
It sent the audience “absolutely wild” and forced producers to stop filming in a bid to restore calm.
Boy George made his comment about the legendary Purple Rain singer in an exchange with fellow judge Paloma Faith.
The
stars, who joined Will.i.am and Kaiser Chiefs’ frontman Ricky Wilson on
the judging panel this year, were boasting about who they had
collaborated with.
The
Karma Chameleon hitmaker started it, saying: “I have duetted with some
of the greatest soul singers in history including Luther Vandross and
Smokey Robinson.”
Paloma hit back: 'Well OK, if we’re throwing big soul names out there I’ve performed with Prince.'
To which George reportedly replied: 'Forget that, darling, I’ve slept with Prince.'
According
to UK Sun, Willi.Am laughed and hi-fived him while the crew went into
panic mode and went over to speak with the singer.
The source said: 'Production staff had to come up on stage and speak to them. After
that, Boy George started backtracking saying he hadn’t really slept
with Prince and that in reality, he just had his poster on his wall.
