Kelly Clarkson has blasted a New York store for treating her “like Julia Roberts<\/a>‘ character in Pretty Woman”.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kelly Clarkson had a bad experience<\/p>\n

The 44-year-old star – who has River, 12, and Remington, 10, with late ex-husband Brandon Blackstock<\/a> – has told Art of Play that they had lost a “huge sale” following a disappointing experience where staff allegedly “looked at” the Behind These Hazel Eyes hitmaker as if she “couldn’t afford” their wares, prompting her to leave without buying anything.<\/p>\n

She fumed on X: “Just drove all the way to Brooklyn to check out this store I thought looked really rad and had a few things in mind to buy and literally was looked at as if I couldn\u2019t afford it and was told he could find something comparable for me. Wow, dude. You\u2019re an idiot and just lost a huge sale.<\/p>\n

“But y\u2019all should go check out Art of Play in Brooklyn if you enjoy being treated like Julia Roberts<\/a>‘ character in Pretty Woman. For sure, check it out [thumbs down emoji] (sic)”<\/p>\n

\t\t\t<\/p>\n

Kelly’s reference to the 1990s rom-com referred to a scene in which Vivian Ward goes to a clothing boutique and the sales assistant refuses to show her more expensive items. She later returns in a nicer outfit, clutching a string of shopping bags and tells the clerk who refused her service that they had made a “big mistake” and missed out on a huge commission from her.<\/p>\n

\nWhile Art of Play haven’t directly responded to the talk show host’s criticism, they shared a message on their Instagram Story which they had received from another customer praising their “genuine kindness”.<\/p>\n

\nThe review read: \u201cFrom the very first time I walked into @artofplay, I felt welcomed and treated with such genuine kindness.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI love discovering unique treasures and connecting with the wonderful people there.<\/p>\n

\n\u201c[Art of Play is] a place that leaves you smiling and wanting to come back. I\u2019m already counting down the days until I return in two weeks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nHowever, the review has now been removed from their Instagram Story.<\/p>\n

\nAs well as selling unique toys and curiosities, Art of Play is also a design space and home to a close-up magic theatre.<\/p>\n
