Boy George only ever wore jeans when he was a heroin addict.

The flamboyant former Culture Club singer, who has struggled with substance abuse and depression for years, joked that he would have to be high on drugs to wear denim because he has "short legs" and jeans don't suit him.

The 45-year-old singer - who recently had to sweep the streets of New York as part of a community service sentence - also revealed he is a huge fan of clothes from conservative British high street store Marks and Spencer.

He said: "They fit, they're cheap and I'm going to customise them anyway. There's no point spending a fortune on something when I know I'm going to print on it, add beading alter stitching and change it to beyond recognition."
