Boy George to pick up trash in August heat!

NEW YORK -- Boy George will perform his court-ordered community service by picking up trash on city streets in the August heat, a sanitation spokesman said.
The former Culture Club singer will be issued a shovel, broom, plastic bags and gloves when he reports Aug. 14 for five days of work, said department spokesman Vito Turso.
"This is the epitome of community service," Turso told the New York Daily News. "It's not like he's going to be working in an air-conditioned office."
Born George O'Dowd, the 45-year-old singer has struggled with drug problems for years. He was ordered to do community service after pleading guilty in March to false reporting of an incident. He called police with a bogus report of a burglary at his lower Manhattan apartment in October, and the responding officers found cocaine inside.
A Manhattan judge threatened the singer with jail time if he failed to complete his five days of community service before Aug. 28. O'Dowd had hoped to do so by raising money for an AIDS charity, but this plan was turned down.
Turso's statement was the first indication of what sort of work the singer would be given. He could be assigned to pick up streets in Chinatown, Little Italy, Nolita or parts of the Lower East Side.
O'Dowd became an 1980s icon with his androgynous appearance and vocals on hits such as "Karma Chameleon" and "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?"
