Shock me, shock me, shock me with that deviant behavior!

Boy George is no stranger to controversy but he’s really stepped into it during a recent taping of The Voice UK. During a live taping, the singer brought production to a stand still when he said he had slept with Prince.

The show’s newcomer made the surprising claim in front of a studio audience, and apparently the shocking outburst caused such a hubbub that producers had to stop filming.

A source close to the production told The Sun that the remark, “’sent the audience absolutely wild and forced producers to stop filming.”

While sitting with fellow judges Will.i.am, Kaiser Chiefs frontman Ricky Wilson and singer Paloma Faith, the group were bragging about whom they’ve collaborated with.

The former Culture Club front man boasted, “I have duetted with some of the greatest soul singers in history including Luther Vandross and Smokey Robinson.”

Paloma went head-to-head saying, “Well OK, if we’re throwing big soul names out there I’ve performed with Prince.” The production source says that the “Tumble 4 Ya” singer replied, Forget that, darling, I’ve slept with Prince.”

The source claims that production quickly came to a halt and producers took Boy George aside. “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,” the source added.

Boy George may have backtracked — but we totally believe him!
