GRAMMY Rewind: 26 Years Before "RuPaul's Drag Race," Boy George & Culture Club Brought Drag Queen Realness To America

For today's episode of GRAMMY Rewind, GRAMMY.com takes a trip back to 1984, when London New Wave group Culture Club won Best New Artist. Following the momentous release of their lively 1982 debut album, Kissing To Be Clever, they were also nominated for one of its hit singles—and '80s classic—"Do You Really Want To Hurt Me."

Watch the group's full acceptance speech below to witness legendary frontman Boy George, rocking winged eyeliner and magenta lips, deliver a charming moment that shocked a gender-binary, Ronald-Reagan-ruled America.

"Thank you, America, you've got taste, style and you know a good drag queen when you see one," George offered, with a coy kiss to the camera.

In 2018, the queer icon reflected on the moment during an interview with Variety: "I didn't really consider what it meant for anyone else, as I was in England…But people [in the U.S.] were freaking out when I said that. My press agent at the time, Susan Blond, literally cried. And now you have RuPaul and 'Drag Race,' which my nephew in Leeds watches. Look, sometimes the world just isn't ready—for a word, for a shift of the moral compass. I'm glad I said it now. I just wish I had said it with a bit more intention at the time."

Luckily, better representation for the LGBTQ+ rainbow—including drag queens, honey!—in American media has continued to improve throughout the decades via groundbreaking shows like "RuPaul's Drag Race" (2009-2021) and "Pose" (2018-2021), the latter of which features trans actors and writers.

Boy George Revisits Culture Club's Best New Artist GRAMMY Speech In 1984

"Look, sometimes the world just isn't ready," Boy George recalls of his GRAMMY speech as Culture Club returns with their first new album in 19 years

Known for his colorful fashion sense and his use of makeup, Boy George was a queer icon in the pop world back when there were not many other openly gay artists in the mainstream. Now, the words he said during his GRAMMY acceptance speech when Culture Club won Best New Artist at the 26th GRAMMY Awards in 1984 may not seem very shocking, but at the time caused a stir.

Culture Club Win Best New Artist

George and Culture Club are back after a 19 year hiatus from making new music, returning with their message of love and openness for the world with their latest album, Life, released Oct. 26. In a recent interview with Variety, George recalls the moment he realized their messages were shocking to some.

"Thank you America, you know a good drag queen when you see one," George said at the GRAMMYs (via satellite from England). While today that may not sound outlandish, in 1984, as highlighted by a New York Times article at the time, some Americans didn't know what to do with George and his gender-nonconformity.

"I didn't really consider what it meant for anyone else, as I was in England…But people [in the U.S.] were freaking out when I said that," George told Variety. "Look, sometimes the world just isn't ready — for a word, for a shift of the moral compass. I'm glad I said it now. I just wish I had said it with a bit more intention at the time."

He thought it was "a pretty innocuous comment," being that he was in England and drag queens were already a regular part of culture, and he really didn't think that anyone would be surprised by his word choice. Now he realizes the power that even seemingly simple words can have on society.

Present day, 34 years after he turned heads for thanking Americans for loving his drag queen-self, as LQBTQ+ rights are being challenged in the country, it is important that he keeps showing the U.S.—and the world—how to keep opening their arms to accept everyone that makes this country great. 

"It's almost more challenging now, because you had better find something to say that is relevant to you and the world," George said.

The Pointer Sisters may have playfully run faint while presenting her the GRAMMY for Best New Artist, but Sheena Easton was all understated charm.

When the R&B trio presented the British-American singer with the golden gramophone at the 24th GRAMMY Awards in 1982, Easton responded graciously, embracing each Pointer before approaching the mic.

"All I can say is, it's very difficult to make a speech," she says in the video below. "All I can tell you is what went through my head as I was sitting there."

In the latest episode of GRAMMY Rewind, roll back the time to 1982 and catch the rest of Easton's televised expressions. 

That same year, she was also nominated for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Female for "For Your Eyes Only. Easton has gone on to garner three more GRAMMY nominations and, at the 27th GRAMMY Awards in 1985, she won the GRAMMY for Best Mexican-American Performance for "Me Gustas Tal Como Eres.”

After around 12 seconds of shellshock, Bonnie Raitt starts her acceptance speech by gripping her chest and thinking out loud, "I can never get over this as long as I live."

The singer/songwriter was capping off her fourth win in as many nominations at the 1990 GRAMMY Awards, but that didn't stop her astonishment when she heard Nick of Time get announced as Album of the Year.

Watch the 26-time GRAMMY nominee's jaw-dropping reaction below.

What's better than one Latin GRAMMY winner? Two Latin GRAMMY winners. Six times. Oh, and there's a GRAMMY award from 2017 for Best Latin Pop Album in there too.

Mexican brother/sister, pop/rock duo Jesse & Joy have six Latin GRAMMY wins to their name, including an incredible four-win year in 2012. The latest episode of GRAMMY Rewind travels back to 2012 to relive one of those four wins.

Watch below to see the Huerta Uecke siblings gratefully take home the Latin GRAMMY for Record of the Year for their 2011 hit single "¡Corre!"

"¡Corre!" was the second single from Jesse & Joy's third studio album, ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro?, and earned the duo a Latin GRAMMY win for Song of the Year as well as Record of the Year at the 13th Latin GRAMMYs. The superstar siblings also won Best Contemporary Pop Vocal Album for ¿Con Quién Se Queda El Perro? and Best Short Form Music Video for "Me Voy" in 2012.
