The TRUTH Behind Kelly's MELTDOWN !!

If you missed what happened in Brooklyn on Saturday, I'll go through it quickly here.

Kelly Clarkson said that she drove for 30 minutes to go to this store called Art of Play, which is basically a small business that sells everything from toys to collectibles, as far as I've seen on the pictures of this store.

And according to her, she's drove 30 minutes to get to the store, which I feel like, okay, everywhere you go in LA, you drive for 30 minutes.

So I don't think that's such a big deal that you drive somewhere for 30 minutes.

But anyways, according to Kelly herself, this is what happens.

She walks into the store.

She sees this bird that's attached to the wall that has a price tag on it that says $15,000.

She tells the store assistant that she's interested in this bird and, according to her, he looks her up and down and then says, I have other alternatives for you, insinuating that she couldn't afford this bird according to how Kelly felt.

So, Kelly walks out of the store not buying anything and gets really upset.

Then she goes to Instagram and she says, Just drove all the way to Brooklyn to check out this store I thought looked really rad and had a few things in mind to buy.

and literally was looked at as if I couldn't afford it and was told he could find something comparable for me.

Wow, dude, you're an idiot and just lost a huge sale.

But you all should go check out Art of Play in Brooklyn if you enjoy being treated like Julia Roberts' character in Pretty Woman, for sure.

Check it out.

Thumbs down.

So Kelly Clarkson shares this with her 8 million followers on Instagram and the media starts picking it up.

And then the mob is unleashed and they start attacking Art of Play on social media.

So the store posted this one on their Instagram saying, yesterday Kelly Clarkson visited us in Brooklyn and inquired about buying Molly a a one-of-a-kind singing and dancing bird automation who plays an important role in the magic show we host here.

Molly is permanently attached to the wall and isn't for sale.

However, the negative experience Kelly described on Twitter would resonate with anyone who has ever felt judged in a shop.

At Art of Play, whether someone comes in to make a purchase or simply lock look around for a while they're equally welcome we greet everyone who walks in the door with the invitation to pick things up and play and they do so many stay for hours enjoying our puzzles games and toys and they say imagine our surprise when our small local business was suddenly attacked by 8 million people who've never visited our store.

It's been a surreal experience to be the focus of such widespread outrage after just one mention by a celebrity.

They said thanks to all our friends and welcome to all the curious folks who have discovered us amidst the drama.

We're going to keep our heads down and hopefully we can clear things up with Kelly someday.

As a talented popular singer once said, what doesn't kill you make you stronger.
