How can you let monster Boy George in the jungle?

A MAN handcuffed to a wall by Boy George today slams the pop star‘s £500,000 I’m A Celebrity deal with ITV. 

Audun Carlsen, 43, is haunted by the 2007 ordeal that landed George, 61, in jail. He says: “I still see the monster that he is every time I see him.

“It’s hurtful that ITV give him that platform.”

A MALE model haunted over an attack by Boy George has blasted ITV for putting the star on I’m A Celeb and says it would be different if he had been a woman.

Audun Carlsen is still traumatised from the night the drug-crazed star handcuffed him to a wall.

The Culture Club singer was jailed in 2009 over the attack two years earlier.

Angry Audun says George, 61, should not be on Celeb – let alone be its highest-paid star on a reported £500,000.

Branding George a “monster”, Audun, 43, says: “Had I been a woman and he did what he did, he would never have been given the platform. It’s hurtful that big organisations like ITV give him that platform.

“I think giving him this sort of platform and a record fee sends the wrong message to survivors of violence and abuse and is plain wrong.”

Boy George, real name George O’Dowd, has said he was high on cocaine and having a psychotic episode at the time of the attack. He sought treatment afterwards and has been drug-free since. George pleaded not guilty to false imprisonment and has always denied a court claim that he beat Audun with a chain.

But he was convicted of assault and false imprisonment and jailed for 15 months.
