"As I took a leak at The Brit's I could hear a chorus of snorting! We have always called the Ad breaks 'the coke run'. It's still the case'" tweeted the singer after Wednesday's show (February 19, 2014).

Boy George also took the opportunity to defend his controversial choice of eye make-up, which some critics had branded inappropriate given it made it appear as though the singer was bleeding from a facial wound. "Tasteless? Yet worth a whole lot of comment! ??" he said.
