(AP) Boy George, the flamboyant former Culture Club front man, was convicted Friday of falsely imprisoning a male escort. [The BBC reports that George will likely be ordered to serve jail time for the conviction. He will be sentenced on January 16th]

Norwegian escort Audun Carlsen had alleged he was handcuffed to a wall hook at the singer's east London apartment on April 28, 2007. Prosecutors said Carlsen was held by the singer, whose real name is George O'Dowd, for under an hour.

Carlsen, 29, said O'Dowd swung a metal chain at him when he got loose and fled the apartment following a naked photo shoot. O'Dowd, who is 46, admitted he restrained Carlsen with handcuffs while trying to figure out if Carlsen had tampered with a computer. - more on this story
