Boy George impersonator reveals he spent £16,000 to not look like Alan Carr as Lizzie Cundy makes jokey dig at Carol Vorderman during plastic surgery chat

A Boy George impersonator has told how he spent £16,000 on cosmetic surgery to not look like comedian and chat show host Alan Carr. Singer Liam Halewood shed light on his changed appearance on the James Whale Unleashed show on TalkTV.

Appearing as a panellist alongside former WAG Lizzie Cundy, the ex-wife of former Tottenham Hotspur player Jason Cundy, he explained that he had previously looked like the TV funny man. But now Liam, who has performed for years in clubs across Manchester, specialises as a Boy George tribute.

James said: "You have spent £16,000 on plastic surgery having yourself changed to look like Boy George." But Liam corrected: "It wasn't £16,000 to look like Boy George, it was £16,000 not to look like Alan Carr."
