Paris... or Banksy?

Hundreds of Paris Hilton albums have been tampered with in the latest stunt by "guerrilla artist" Banksy.

Banksy has replaced Hilton's CD with his own remixes and given them titles such as Why am I Famous?, What Have I Done? and What Am I For?

He has also changed pictures of her on the CD sleeve to show the US socialite topless and with a dog's head.

Ah, Banksy, is there anything you won't do? Anything you see as sacred? But apparently HMV and Virgin are rather less than concerned:

"It's not the type of behaviour you'd want to see happening very often," he said.

"I guess you can give an individual such as Banksy a little bit of leeway for his own particular brand of artistic engagement.

"Often people might have a view on something but feel they can't always express it, but it's down to the likes of Banksy to say often what people think about things.

"And it might be that there will be some people who agree with his views on the Paris Hilton album."

A spokesman for Virgin Megastores said staff were searching for affected CDs but it was proving hard to find them all.

"I have to take my hat off - it's a very good stunt," he added.

You'd almost think they admired the stunt, hey?

He did what any sane man would do. Hurrah for him.

But no sane man dared do it, Nihil...

Excellent.

Its just a shame he couldn't have infiltrated the CD pressing factory and completely replaced the entire production run.
After all, anyone who is foolish enough to actually spend money on Paris Hilton's record deserves to get ripped off twice.

so paris cd's now actually have some value...?

Now if we could just find some use for Paris herself... :hmmm:

Didn't the CD flop anyways?
