Kelly Clarkson and Brooklyn Shop Dispute | NewsCubby

Kelly Clarkson’s shopping trip has turned into a public dispute with Brooklyn’s Art of Play. Clarkson says staff treated her as if she couldn’t afford a fifteen-thousand-dollar mechanical bird. The shop says its bird, Molly, isn’t for sale—and that price referred to a similar bird owned by its creator. Clarkson disputes that explanation. The business says it has reached out to clear the air. For now, the two sides are giving different accounts of the same visit.
