Boy George has cancelled his North American tour after U.S. authorities denied him a visa due to a pending legal case in Brtitain, Reuters reports.  

The former "Culture Club" frontman's tour was scheduled to kick off July 10 in Aspen, CO and conclude in Dallas, TX on August 23. 

"I love America and I am really sad that it appears that I am not allowed to visit a place I have called home at various times in my life," George is quoted as saying. "But what has happened to me has nothing to do with the American people -- they are kind people with big hearts."

The 47-year-old musician, whose real name is George O'Dowd, is awaiting trial in London on charges that he falsely imprisoned a man.

  • He doesn't seem like a threat. But he should tie up his legal business before he tours.
