Boy George makes a public appearance in London

Antony & the Johnsons were joined onstage last night (December 5) by Boy George.

The former Culture Club singer came on to duet with Antony on 'You Are My Sister' during the show at the London Shepherd's Bush Empire.

After the song, Antony Hegarty presented Geroge with a bouqet of flowers. George thanked the audience for supporting Hegarty, who he said had "one of the most beautiful voices in the world". He emotionally added to Antony, "You are my sister."

The setlist included 'Hope There's Someone', 'Fistful of Love' and a cover version of Leonard Cohen's 'The Guests'.

Antony And The Johnsons will play the same venue again tonight.
