Bjork’s Greatest “Hits” – Wee Icelandic Singer Generously Gives The Media An Excuse To Make Bjork/Beserk Puns Once More

bjork.jpgPint-sized singer and ostrich costume-enthusiast Bjork has gone old school, yo. Much like that infamous time in 1996 at an airport in Thailand where she pummeled a reporter after they greeted her with “Welcome to Bangkok” (thems fightin’ words!), Bjork is now generating headlines due to an “incident” with a photographer in New Zealand over the weekend.


Icelandic singer and songwriter Bjork attacked a newspaper photographer shortly after she arrived at New Zealand’s Auckland International Airport, local media reported today.

Bjork, who is in Auckland to perform at the Big Day Out concert on Friday, tore New Zealand Herald photographer Glenn Jeffrey’s shirt in half, after he photographed her arriving at the airport early yesterday.

Jeffrey, a news photographer of 25 years, said Bjork was accompanied by a man who asked him not take photos.

Asked him not to take photos, eh? What happened next, Glenn?


“I took a couple of pictures … “

Of course you did…


“… and as I turned and walked away she came up behind me, grabbed the back of my black skivvy and tore it,” he told the New Zealand Press Association.

“As she did this she fell over, she fell to the ground,” he said.

Bjork on a skivving tearing rampage – not choice, bro. Does the woman have no respect for comfortable, warm couture? We can’t wait to see what she gets up to when she arrives in Oz for the Australian leg of the Big Day Out tour.
