Björk Moving to Brooklyn Heights
We first caught wind of this rumor last week and have finally gotten enough confirmation that we feel comfortable posting it: Avant-garde pop star Bjork and artist husband Matthew Barney are in contract on a rather phat pad in Brooklyn Heights.

We first caught wind of this rumor last week and have finally gotten enough confirmation that we feel comfortable posting it: Avant-garde pop star Bjork and artist husband Matthew Barney are in contract on a rather phat pad in Brooklyn Heights. In the name of privacy, that’s all we’re gonna say and ask that commenters refrain from posting the address if they know it. Stick to welcoming two more world-class artists to Brooklyn.
Yeah, that clip was all over the place because it makes Bjork look like a madwoman.
I’d like to see clips of the days leading up to that moment.
Bjork fights like a girl.
I’ve tried my darndest as I enter Bangkok to get assaulted by a police officer in uniform with his billyclub; but to no avail.
“extreme provocation”??
“incessant aggressive invasion”??
“I don’t believe that woman or the paparazzi in general was innocently taking her picture and innocently asking her question.”
Nomi, watch and listen to the video for goodness sake! The attack was hardly provoked and do you really consider having a reporter say “Welcome to Bangkok” to be an “aggressive invasion”? That reporter is also someone’s daughter, mother, sister, etc. and didn’t deserve that. She wasn’t exactly up in Bjork’s grill.
I watched the video- the woman simply said Welcome to Bangkok- sorry but there is no excuse for the attack. If Bjork really wanted privacy, why go through a public airport? And surely someone alerted the press that she would be there. Sometimes stars believe their own hype and think they operate on a different level than the rest of us, all the while depending on us to support them. She should have been arrested for assault.
Assault is assualt, Nomi. It’s not an appropriate response to anything other than an assault by the other person.
Too many people these days don’t understand this. If I were that reporter I’d press charges.
You can’t be a celebrity or a public figure and not be able to deal with the shit.
Yes, sometimes we do things that are not acceptable after extreme provocation. I don’t believe that woman or the paparazzi in general was innocently taking her picture and innocently asking her question. Famous people should expect to give up some of their privacy. But incessant aggressive invasion could push any one of us to do things we’d think we’d never do.
Nomi, I don’t really care about Bjork either way, other than I do think she’s exceptionally pretty and exotic looking. But to physically assault someone after she said “Welcome to Bangkok” is unacceptable regardless of how stressed she might have been, the fact the woman was a reporter, the fact her kid was with her, etc. There was no excuse for that. You can’t make movies, music, videos, etc. and expect people not to want to talk to you or take your picture.
“Some may think she’s the best musician in the world but that just proves she’s a low-life POS without any class.”
Unfair. We have no idea what led to that moment. She’s not known for losing it like that. A life led being nearly constantly harassed by those people could make anyone lose it especially if they are with their children.
