Leigh Bowery in Boy George's music videos
Back in May 1990, Leigh Bowery was invited by director Baillie Walsh to do a cameo appearance on Boy George's controversial music video for the song "Generations Of Love" , where he (among other "club celebrities" like David Holah, Les Child, Princess Julia, Rachel Auburn, Stevie Hughes and Boy George himself) would play the parts of young prostitutes in the streets of downtown London.

There are three versions of this video. Two of them feature Leigh
(one X-rated and other a little less "erotic"), and one very simple for daytime TV. You can watch this video (the X-rated version) online on the website Icon2Go:

Boy George paid hommage to Leigh Bowery in other two videos:
"Ich bin Kunst" features George all dressed-up as Leigh (this is Leigh's theme song from the musical "Taboo") and "Out Of Fashion" features tons of great early images of Bowery himself. Both videos can be watched on the Icon2Go website.
