Kate Garraway went all-out for Globals’s Make Some Noise as she dressed as one of her music icons, and she looked almost unrecognisable as she dressed up as legendary Culture Club frontman Boy George.
To the tune of the band’s iconic 1983 hit Karma Chameleon, Kate dressed up as the singer and was transported around London on the back of motorcycle. The radio presenter had Boy George’s look down to a tee with a bowler fit adorned with multicoloured strings, an eye-catching dress which was finished off with some beautiful rainbow-coloured makeup.
In her caption, the 56-year-old joked: “I may not have fooled anyone as @BoyGeorgeOfficial, but it was great fun cheering up London for #MakeSomeNoise with @SmoothRadio,” finishing the post off with a party popper and purple heart emoji.
However, fans were quick to support the star’s effort as one said: “Good choice Kate you looked fab,” and a second added: “You are such a good sport Kate,” and a third shared: “You’re a star,” finishing the post off with a star emoji.
Kate shared also shared the post from Global on her Instagram Stories, as she commented: “Thanks for being such a great #makesomenoise muse @boygeorgeofficial.” She finished the clip off with a purple heart emoji and tagged Smooth Radio.
Kate’s moment of fun comes as she continues to look after husband Derek Draper, who requires around-the-clock care after contracting COVID-19 and suffering from serious effects because of the virus.

Speaking about how the strength of her love has helped Derek and herself through hard times, Kate added: “And love for him, for the Children. He is most alive when they’re around. They are unbelievable. I haven’t really talked a lot about them in some ways, but they’ve had their own traumas and it’s not my story to tell.

Kate also spoke about a very difficult period of her life after she suffered a health crisis herself and was forced to miss Good Morning Britain after suffering heart palpitations and vomiting on the way to the studio.

“I didn’t feel like I was being a great mum because I was so stretched. I didn’t feel like I was being the best advocate for Derek. I didn’t feel like I was doing anything. And I thought, ‘My God, I can’t even go on air. I’m a useless employee.’ And you just have one of those massive crunch moments, don’t you?

And I still get to come to work where there are millions of people who are just in this suffocating bubble of loving the person they’re caring for. But also thinking, how do I make this work?”
