Paul Rudd Visits Art of Play After Kelly Clarkson Feud

Paul Rudd recently visited the Art of Play, a novelty and magic shop in Brooklyn. His visit occurred on October 21st, approximately two weeks after singer Kelly Clarkson publicly accused the store of providing poor customer service. Clarkson had detailed on October 10th how she felt discriminated against due to her perceived inability to afford items, specifically mentioning a $15,000 mechanical singing bird named Molly.

Art of Play's co-owner, Adam Rubin, responded to Clarkson's accusations, stating that the shop treated her like any other customer and that the interaction was not dramatic. He also claimed that the shop subsequently received threats due to Clarkson's public post. Rubin clarified that Molly, the singing bird, was not for sale but that interested parties could commission a similar automaton from its creator.

Following the incident, the shop humorously raised the price of the mechanical birds to $15 million due to increased interest. The article also lists several other celebrity feuds for context.
