Boy George has split from the manager of his record label after he refused to release his controversial pro-Israel song.
On Saturday, the singer confirmed on social media that he had parted ways with Tony Pontius, calling the executive, who had run his record label, BGP, for several years, "gutless".
"I wanted to release We Will Dance Again, but he [Pontius] was unequivocal and said, 'I want nothing to do with this song', and I responded, 'ok, we are done'," the former Culture Club front man wrote on X.
"When someone is gutless, it really does not hurt to say goodbye. My faith in humanity will not diminish and the truth will always win. I will release it!"

That dude is living proof homophobia is all but a myth....if it weren’t, somebody woulda put this guy’s lights out by now.
Good for Boy George.
Boy George for the win! BoyG and his original drummer for years. They were a twosome.
“Do you really want to hurt me?”
“Yes we do!”
Guy has guts.
lol
“When someone is gutless..”
And likely brainless as well, like everyone else who thinks Israel is committing genocide. Good on BG for standing up for the truth.
Boy George identifies as a gay male. He rejects gender fluid labels.
It seems that Boy George is a voice of reason.
He will now be a target for every mooslim jihadi.........
I thought he was Jewish but he was born Catholic. Good for him for standing up for Israel.
Watch for the song to become a huge hit!.........
Back in the 80s I knew CHICKS that wanted to kick his ass....unless I miss my guess, my wife still does.
Many in the gay community reject that LGBTQRXYZ+++++ and all the other crap..for them its gone WAY too far..and Im happy that Boy George showed some guts and took a stand and got rid of that Jew hating a-hole
That manager’s last name is doing a lot of heavy lifting.
For what reason?
It’s weird, after all these years It turns out he’s not a man without conviction.
I am starting to appreciate Boy George.
Does President Trump own or have an interest in a record company?
He could help Boy George release it under the ‘MAGA’ label. ;)
Should that be, ‘Tony Pontius Pilate?’ ;)
