Boy George has revealed that he likes Lady GaGa best when she shows her subdued side.

The singer/DJ/fashion designer scotched rumours that he is lining up a collaboration with the 'Bad Romance' star, but admitted that he is open to the idea.

"If I ever did anything with her, I'd want to do something on the piano, really stripped down, because for me that's when she's at her best," he told Digital Spy.

"I went to her gig and the rest of it I've seen before, but it was so powerful when she did 'Speechless' and the crowd were singing along. It was just beautiful."

George - who releases new single 'Amazing Grace' on Monday - also offered advice to Adam Lambert, the American Idol singer who has frequently cited him as an influence.

"I know he said some quite mean things about Susan Boyle, which is always a bad idea as I've learned! If I ever meet him I'll say, 'Why don't you keep that stuff to yourself!'" he said.

"I watched him on American Idol and he's definitely got a great voice though. I'll be interested to see what he's about."
