Boy George was definitely a proto-Club Kid, but also a shameless hanger on, which he still does. In the punk scene he was always trying to get in with Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwoods crowd from Seditionaries, and nearly did when Malcolm decided to try him out in Bow Wow Wow because he was close friends with the drummer. It didn't work out though, all he ended up with was a Westwood Apache shirt, and an early name for Bow Wow Wow, Sex Gang children. Oh then he jumped on the Leigh Bowery bandwagon, wrote that musical about him, but Bowery didn't even George, and only associated with him because there was occassional costume work out of it, and because George could give Minty free publicity. **Source: Kevin Mooney, former drummer of Adam and the Ants, teenage play thing and future husband of Westwood model Pamela Rourke aka Jordan, Taboo regular, and member of the Sex Pistols Jubilee Boat Party.**

Wasn't Boy George at one of the club kids outlaw parties, the one at Dunkin' Donuts. Leigh Bowery was at that one too.

I know this is an old post, but just so everyone knows, the Club Kid phenomenon in NYC was a ripoff of the Blitz Kid subculture in London back in 1979, which Boy George was a part of. So, the OP was saying that Boy George would've fit into a ripoff of the original club phenomenon that he was a member of.
