Vogue Williams left red faced after Boy George contacted her over 'beef' and 'personal grudge' claims before I'm A Celeb

Vogue Williams revealed Boy George contacted her after she claimed they had 'beef' and that he had a 'personal grudge' against her.

The Irish DJ and her comedian pal Joanne McNally said they had 'beef' with the singer and I'm A Celeb star during a recent episode of their hit podcast, My Therapist Ghosted Me.

But Vogue, who worked closely alongside the Karma Chameleon hitmaker on Virgin Media’s talent show The Big Deal last year, admitted she was left red faced shortly after - revealing he reached out to her about the comments before heading into the jungle last week.

During the latest episode of their podcast this week, Joanne brought up the encounter, asking Vogue: “Do you want to apologise to Boy George? Or…”

Laughing, the Dubliner went on: “We need to start a correction corner for what Vogue gets up to during the week that we don’t see.

“Sorry Joanne you were thrown into that article as well and he didn’t text you saying there’s no beef,” Vogue quipped back.

Joanne added: “I was only saying it to someone the other day, saying it to Alan [her boyfriend] the other day, ‘Boy George, he burnt us and then he DM’d Vogue saying look 'there’s nothing we have no beef’ and I was like, ‘I didn’t hear a peep from him.'”

“But I read the article and it said we were joking so I was like it's grand.”

TV presenter Vogue went on to explain: “Obviously the back story is Joanne and I were joking saying that Boy George doesn’t follow us, which he doesn’t.

“And we said we had beef with him and he mailed me saying, ‘I have got no beef with you,’ and it was a little bit embarrassing,” she added.

Joanne joked: “It was immature on our part, let's be real.”

Vogue went on to tease her co-host saying: “Joanne I wouldn’t be happy if I was you though, he didn’t mail you.”

It comes after both Vogue and Joanne suggested they had a rift with the pop singer while discussing his upcoming appearance on I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here.

Vogue said: “Our friend – or not – Boy George. Yeah, remember Boy George? I don’t. That’s funny.”

Joanne added: “We’ve got beef with Boy,” before Vogue agreed, saying: “We do have beef with Boy.”

Joanne went on to explain: “He didn’t follow either of us back after we both met him on different shows.”

Vogue continued: “Well it was way worse for me. He followed everybody else on my show except me. He took a personal grudge against me.”

Laughing it off, funny woman Joanne added: “We were desperate for the attention of Boy George but he didn’t give it to us. He’s a lovely man though.”
