Boy George hit back at Lorraine Kelly after the presenter discussed a rumoured tantrum he threw on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!
The day before the 61-year-old left the jungle, Lorraine spoke about an unseen moment from the jungle as the Culture Club singer was said to have thrown a tantrum after being unable to ride in a golf buggy.
Due to a medical condition, Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver was able to use the mode of transport to get back to camp following a Bushtucker trial, but it seems the singer wasn’t happy when he didn’t receive the same treatment.

“Does he watch this show? You don’t get golf buggies, George,” chimed Lorraine.
Her guest revealed: “Apparently [George] stole an apple and hid behind some trees so he couldn’t be filmed. Producers were worrying when he threatened to quit so they had to try and talk him down.”
Proceeding to mock the star’s demand for a golf buggy, Lorraine joked: “I always have golf buggy to get me from here to over there,” as she pointed across the room.
“I think the thing with George is not that many people tell him no. I’m very fond of him but there’s that as well!” the daytime show host explained.
Spotting the video on Twitter, George hit back at the presenter, saying: “Yes my darling Lorraine I bet you walk everywhere and do your own make-up? Lol!”
It’s likely the Karma Chameleon singer also wasn’t happy with Lorraine’s comments suggesting he is less upfront than he likes to think.
She said: “Boy George – now what’s going on there? He keeps saying, “I speak my mind, I speak my mind” but he’s always sort of doing hushed asides.”
While it seems the general public had other camp favourites, one person who was particularly gutted about his departure was presenter Ant McPartlin.
Speaking during an Instagram Live immediately after his exit, Ant said: “What a goddamn shame, I really really enjoyed Boy George in there, I loved him. I thought he was really good fun.”
Talking directly to his followers, the 47-year-old fumed: “You b*****s! I liked Boy George!”
