Boy George was named one of Attitude’s Icon Award winners at the Attitude Awards on Monday night (October 13) – and legendary supermodel and long-time fan Naomi Campbell was on hand to present the Culture Club singer with his trophy.
After taking to the stage, Campbell told the audience: “I wouldn’t exist without all of you gay men. I exist because of you.”
Upon receiving his award, Boy George gave a moving speech where he discussed his six years of sobriety, saying that the night’s award felt like “an award for recovery.”
