Eight Items or Less: Foxy Brown to Leave Riker's Next Week, Hyatt Hotel to Read Bedtime Stories, Judith Supine to Create Installation
By Gary Pini
1. Nail salons beware! Foxy Brown is getting out of Riker's on April 18. Her manager tells Billboard magazine: "They had her on continuous lockdown just because she's a celebrity. They were trying to break her spirit."
2. Having exhausted every possible gimmick to attract customers (ie: pillow choice, bath concierge, etc.) the Hyatt Hotel in London has hired somebody to read to people in their room. It's free and is only available for the next two weeks.
3. Artist Judith Supine has created a gigantic installation with everything but the kitchen sink and you can play there tomorrow from 5 to 9 p.m. (Saturday, April 12) Go to the alley entrance of 114 Forrest Street in Williamsburg, Morgan Ave. L stop.
4. The European Court of Justice decided yesterday that anyone selling clothing with even two stripes would be infringing Adidas’s three-stripe trademark.
5. The news in brief: Robbie Van Winkle and walnuts.org
6. Have a great weekend.
