Boy George Finishes Roadsweeping Job

Boy George has ended his stint as a road sweeper in New York after completing five days of community service.

The former Culture Club singer was serving his punishment for wasting police time after falsely claiming his New York apartment had been burgled.

According to his manager the pop star was a good worker who had ?responded extremely well? to the job.

Jeremy Pearce told the BBC: "It was hard work but he seemed to almost enjoy it. He just kind of took to it. He did it very conscientiously.?

"He liked the people he was working with, both those who were doing community service and the people who ran the Sanitation Department, who were very fair.?

"I think people were quite surprised. I think they thought he was going to be a diva."
