ITV I'm A Celebrity viewers slam 'rude' Boy George over Matt Hancock comments

I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! fans have slammed Boy George for "rude" comments made about Matt Hancock behind his back. An ITV viewer called the Culture Club singer a "rude, miserable man" after an conversation with Coronation Street star Sue Cleaver about the former health secretary on last night's episode (November 15).

George started talking about Matt as he chatted with Sue in the camp lookout, admitting: "I find him very hard to warm to." In response, Sue began: "I know what you mean" as George added: "Everyone else I feel connected to, in a kind of, without having to know the ins and outs of who you are."

Sue then commented: "You've got an economist in a camp with a load of creatives. He's all maths all the way, he uses a different side of his brain, do you know what I mean?" George then quipped: "Does he use any of his brains?" with a laugh.

After making a face, Sue responded: "I really believed him when he said that thing about 'I'm looking for forgiveness' but the other things that have come into play, I'm like, 'are you?'"

Sue is then seen alone in the Bush Telegraph, where she says to viewers: "I think Matt's doing everything he can to fit in - as the days go by, we are finding more and more common ground. So that's nice that there is something other than the elephant in the room, because there is an elephant in the room", reports the Express.

But viewers hit out at George for his comments about Matt. @AAlternativeEe tweeted: "Right Boy George, Matt's not taking it too far, you just don’t like him babes #boygeorge @BoyGeorge #antanddec #imaceleb."

@jesshanrahanx wrote: "Boy George has I have to be centre of attention at all times syndrome #ImACeleb." @Jakebug22 posted: "Boy George has to go, he's a miserable rude man and Sue is a two-faced woman #ImACeleb."

@Someuser6969 commented: "As usual Boy George has nothing good to say behind anyone’s back." @Compo_7 added: "Unpopular opinion - I like Matt Hancock more than I like Boy George. #ImACeleb."
