Key Details of the FeudThe Incident: Kelly Clarkson visited the Brooklyn shop with her kids dressed casually. She inquired about a mechanical singing bird displayed near a $15,000 price tag.
The “Pretty Woman” Accusation: Clarkson took to social media, accusing an employee of giving her the “Pretty Woman treatment”—implying the employee dismissively judged her and assumed she couldn’t afford it, offering to show her cheaper items instead.
Store’s Response: Art of Play clarified that the bird on the wall was a permanent display piece and not directly for sale.
They stated that the $15,000 tag referred to a custom piece by artist Bliss Kolb, and staff were attempting to offer alternative singing birds ( priced around $2,000)
