Artwork of the Week
Thursday, September 07, 2006
I don't normally make an international piece Artwork of the Week, but this guy is so damn slick I couldn't help it. Banksy, the don of street art, doctored 500 of the new Paris Hilton CD's and placed them in stores across the UK. He remixed the album into songs like "Why am I famous?", "What have I done?" and "What am I for?". He also redid the album art with mildly pornographic shots of Paris. He slipped these into the original covers so that unsuspecting buyers could still purchase them.The surprising thing is that not one of the doctored CD's have been returned. Guess it goes to show...

None of the doctored CD's have been returned because there were none in the first place.
It did happen
