Human: Have you heard of Boy George?

Assistant: Yes, I have.  Boy George is a singer, songwriter, and dancer from London who began his career in the 1980s.  Boy George changed the way he presented himself several times.  For example, at one point he shaved half his head and sported a Mohawk and bleached his hair blonde, and then at another point he put on a schoolboy’s uniform and makeup to emphasize his girlish look.  He often performed songs that criticized the conservative and materialistic norms of society, and also sometimes appeared as a woman in his music videos.  Would you like to hear one of his songs?
