It's a case of the eighties taking on the noughties. Boy George has spoken out against Lady Gaga's recent admission that she is an occasional user of cocaine.

There's something that's not to be sniffed at.

The former Culture Club singer, who has battled drug addiction himself, vented his feelings on the internet over her revelation in Vanity Fair.

But why offer up this information on a whim? Could it be that her use of coke is not so occasional?"

He added, "As a recovering addict who knows how dangerous occasional use is, I can think of no reason for Gaga to reveal this to her young audience."

Her admission has been slammed by not only Boy George, but health professionals, alike.
