Boy George admits to using weight loss drug, once got a tummy tuck: 'Media scrutiny doesn't help'

Boy George revealed in his memoir "Karma" that he had a tummy tuck and is currently using weight loss medication. The '80s singer also revealed he had three hair transplants.

"It’s time to confess I had three hair transplants around 2015-2018 – two in Ireland and a final one in LA – and the weird thing is no one remembers I was bald as a shaved badger," he wrote, according to People magazine. "I had a tummy tuck not long after, which was the most painful thing I’ve ever done because I went on tour straight after with Cyndi Lauper with the blood bag attached."

"I’d previously lost seven stone [98 pounds] doing the metabolic balance diet and I needed to get rid of the excess skin," he explained. "When anyone asks about my scar I say I had twins by Cesarean. I’ve never had Botox, though, and I might be the only person in show business with my own face. I’m not frightened of getting old and I think I’ve grown into myself. It might seem weird to say I feel sexier but I actually do. I used to joke over the years, ‘Sexy at 60.’ That was my ambition."
