Lucas ignores Boy George apology

Little Britain star Matt Lucas has ignored Boy George's attempts to apologise to him after he called the comedian a "prissy, niggly diva".

Lucas, who starred in the Culture Club frontman's musical Taboo in 2002, has so far declined to respond to Boy George's attempts to repair their relationship.

The Daily Star quotes George as saying: "I wrote Matt an email a while ago. I apologised to him for the things I said but he didn't respond."

The 47-year-old claimed that he was proud of his attempts to make amends with Lucas.

"It's about what you have done and holding your head up high," he explained. "I wish that a few more people would apologise to me in life. There's something to be said about being able to say sorry."
