Adam Rubin Art of Play Co-owner surely thinks he’s funny about Mexicans and transgenders . Is this who you all support?
The Brooklyn shop owner embroiled in a bizarre feud with Kelly Clarkson is setting the record straight about the “ludicrous” encounter over a mechanical bird. Full episode here: nypost.visitlink.me/_IkWrS

The same side of the internet who were slutshaming Sydney Sweeney’s sports ad are now coming down on some SNL comedian for slutshaming women in revealing sportswear.
I can’t keep up. Either you’re against all slutshaming or you’re for all slutshaming. Either women can dress however they want or women have to be in full hijab. Pick one.

Anyone else a little nauseated by the performative outrage over @Shanemgillis’ “misogynistic" joke about what women wear to the gym now?
Be serious. They're selling yoga pants with wedgies sewn into the butt. He’s not wrong.
Yes, men. I'd love for more of you to defend women. This ain't it.
You could maybe say something about the fetishists wearing womanhood like a skin suit to transjack our locker rooms, shelters, and prisons. Or give a damn about what Hamas does to women while you cheerlead their "resistance."
But sure. We can pretend an honest observation about yoga pants is the problem.
Chivalry is not dead; it’s just painfully confused. 🤦🏻♀️

this kelly clarkson v small business drama is so funny bc with both statements the company has displayed the exact attitude that she complained about. completely unprofessional and obsessed with proving her wrong for literally no gain whatsoever

i really don’t want to side with a celebrity but artofplay is playing their cards so stupidly
Another update from Art of Play, the Brooklyn store Kelly Clarkson criticized on Saturday in a viral tweet.
Check my timeline for the previous back-and-forth.

ALT Screenshot of @artofplay’s statement about Kelly Clarkson’s Saturday visit. The store says she spent five minutes there and asked about Molly, a mechanical bird puppet permanently attached to the wall. It says Seattle artist Bliss Kolb owns a nearly identical automaton and would sell it for $15,000, and that staff explained this to Clarkson. The store also says it offered to show her a German-made singing-bird automaton costing about $2,000 that she could take home that day, but she left before seeing it. Art of Play says it has contacted her directly, wishes her well and hopes they can laugh about the misunderstanding.

I don’t know who’s advising Art of Play, but they should demand a refund. The advice is terrible.
PR 101: don’t publicly argue with customers, celebrity or not. When a complaint goes viral, acknowledge the customer’s experience and reach out directly to resolve it. Don’t turn it into a public fight … even if you think they’re wrong.
And if you insist on arguing publicly, at least keep your story straight.
If this fallout damages the business, it won’t be because of Kelly Clarkson’s complaint. It’ll be because the owners chose the worst possible way to respond.

The owners of the Kelly Clarkson drama store are rich celebrity magicians lmao. They have a Wikipedia page that brags about how successful they are. One of their DVD sets made over $2 million in sales.
This is rich on rich violence.

so art of play decided to defend themselves against allegations of being rude to kelly clarkson by reposting rude stories about kelly clarkson on instagram. this is why you need PR

What are you fighting for here? I want to eliminate all forms of homophobia in the world - should that include my choice not to sleep with bi men?

As a millennial I feel like we're being accused of things that we all know Gen X is the one that does.

個々のモチーフやアートスタイルは別にフロムの専売特許と言える物では無いけどこれだけいくつも既視感ある物が集まるとね…
おまけにエルデンのメインテーマの印象的なあのドラムまで真似てて、いくらでも独自性を出す自力はありそうなのにどうしてそこまで安易な模倣に頼りたがるのかと不思議に思う
