famecrazy Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 LONDON, Sept. 3 (UPI) -- Infamous "guerrilla graffiti" artist Banksy has replaced 500 British copies of Paris Hilton's debut album with his own mock renditions of the heiress' work. The doctored albums found their way into music stores across Britain and offered listeners one 40-minute song featuring many of the heiress' catch phrases. An accompanying booklet listed tracks like "Why am I famous?" and offered digitally altered photos of Hilton, The Independent reported. Prior to taking on one of the world's more notorious celebrities, Banksy had focused his attention on the world's art museums. In 2003, the artist glued one of his original paintings up in the Tate Britain and later smuggled bogus exhibits into both the National History Museum and New York's Museum of Modern Art. While Banksy's newest offering focused on Hilton by labeling her photo with lines like "Thou Shalt Not Worship False Icons," the secretive artist did find time to re-edit the record credits to thank himself for his "wonderful work." Pretty damned funny. Apparently HMV recovered 7 and are going to Auction them off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abracadabra Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Re: Banksy sticks it to Paris This screams don't buy paris's cd! buy my book! sorry not feelin it. anyone with half a brain knows that his motivation is to be accepted by the same institution he's rebelling against. the man would give his right arm to be legitimately hung in the tate or the nymoma. he's not fooling me. still, this was funny, and she deserves it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tesseract Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Re: Banksy sticks it to Paris Well, i agree with abcman but i'm def dissapointed with Banksy on this one. In my mind, rebelling against the goverment of uk, social ish and israelis is worthy (even if you're after being hung in the tate or moma). Rebelling against Paris Hilton is plain cheap (and it will only get you hung on some Mtv show or something). in any way, lose lose, crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
