00:00Kelly Clarkson says she got the pretty woman treatment at a store in Brooklyn and the store
00:04got buried in backlash. Big mistake. Big. Huge. Here's what's happening. Art of Play is a curiosity
00:12store in Brooklyn, New York, and Molly is an animatronic bird that sings and dances in the
00:16store's magic shows. Kelly Clarkson then visited the store this Saturday and asked if she could
00:21buy said bird. She then posted on X that she was looked at as if I couldn't afford it. Art
00:26of Play
00:26says Molly is permanently attached to the wall and is not for sale. Clarkson then posted a photo of
00:32the bird with a $15,000 price tag right next to it. The shop says that price was for another
00:37bird just
00:37like her owned by the artist who made Molly. On top of that, a month earlier, the shop posted a
00:43carousel
00:43with the title, Our Favorite Items Not For Sale, and Molly is the first picture. Now, it's not really
00:50clear if they are directly saying Molly isn't for sale in this carousel since the things they list
00:55are cerebral things like solving a puzzle or changing your perspective, not necessarily
01:00saying items aren't for sale like animatronic birds. In the days following these posts, the
01:05store has been hit with negative reviews and Clarkson has taken heat from commentators for
01:09using her 9 million follower platform against a small business. So when a store makes you feel
01:14small, do you post about it? And does your answer change if you have 9 million followers? Drop your
