On Saturday, Three-time Grammy winner and former talk show host Kelly Clarkson posted on X , criticizing the "Art of Play" toy shop in Brooklyn.
Clarkson said she was considering buying a few things, but was "looked at as if I couldn't afford it." She compared the experience to Julia Roberts' character in "Pretty Woman." "Wow, dude," she wrote.
"You're an idiot and just lost a huge sale." The post racked up more than 44 million views as of Monday afternoon.
The store responded , saying Clarkson was interested in a "one-of-a-kind singing and dancing bird automaton" that's used in magic shows there and that it wasn't for sale.
