Newly obtained 911 audio is shedding light on the frantic response when Hayden Panettiere was found unresponsive in a Greenville, South Carolina, apartment in August. 

"Oh, god, oh, my god -- you do like CPR or something?" the caller can be heard in the recording.

ABC News obtained the recording through a Freedom of Information Act request to Greenville County EMS. First responders "initiated advanced cardiac life support measures" after she was found unresponsive, according to officials, and the TV star was pronounced dead around 2:32 p.m. ET on Aug. 16. 

"[I] walked in after church to my brother and his girlfriend's apartment, and he woke up, and his girl ... she's unconscious," the caller said. 

During the seven-minute phone call, the 911 operator can be heard walking the caller through the steps of CPR before first responders arrive. The caller appears to be the brother of Panettiere's former boyfriend.

"Is she breathing?" the operator asked. 

"No," the caller said. 

"We need to start CPR. I'm going to tell you how to do CPR, OK? We're going to start with ventilation first. I need you to lay her flat on her back and remove anything from under her head," the operator said. 

The operator can be heard counting the number of chest compressions while the caller attempted to administer life-saving aid. 

"We're going to do this 500 times or until help can arrive, OK?" the operator said. "Start counting now -- one, two, three, four; one, two three, four; one, two, three, four; one, two, three, four."

South Carolina law does not allow the release of information in response to FOIA requests that identify an individual by name. The audio corresponds to the date and address of the incident, and the details in the call align with the publicly released information about Panettiere's death.

ABC News has reached out a representative for Panettiere.

Panettiere's death was ruled an accidental overdose from drugs, including fentanyl, according to the Greenville County Coroner's Office in South Carolina.

The Greenville City Police Department is investigating Panettiere's death, and the Drug Enforcement Administration also joined the investigation, according to sources familiar with the investigation.

Panettiere's ex-boyfriend Brian Hickerson was present at the scene when she died, according to a police report obtained by ABC News.

The officer also wrote in the report that they spoke with Brian Hickerson and his brother, Zach Hickerson, who was also on scene, while EMS "was working on the patient." Zach Hickerson described Panettiere as his brother's girlfriend.

Actress Selma Blair faces the possibility of federal charges and prison time following her arrest earlier this week on assault charges in New York.

The Cruel Intentions star was arrested following an alleged altercation with two flight attendants aboard a Delta flight from Los Angeles to New York City on Sunday.

After the flight, Blair also had alleged altercations with a Port Authority officer helping to transport her and a registered nurse assisting with her treatment at a New York hospital, according to a complaint obtained by ABC News.

The actress is now free on $20,000 bond after a court appearance Monday in which she pleaded not guilty to two felony assault charges, which come with the potential for as many as seven years in prison.

In addition to the assault charges, Blair was issued a violation notice on Monday alerting her that she is facing federal charges of assaults within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States, a source familiar with the federal summons told ABC News.

During her court appearance Monday, an attorney for Blair noted that this is the actress's first arrest.

The attorney also said that Blair's diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and other conditions "greatly impact her neurological system," adding that Blair missed doses of her medication during her travel.

MS is a chronic, often unpredictable disease of the central nervous system and can cause problems with vision, balance and muscle control. Blair publicly revealed her diagnosis in 2018.

Blair has also said previously that she suffers from dystonia, a neurological disorder that "causes muscles to move or tighten on their own, out of a person’s control," according to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke.

Prior to Blair's court appearance, her representative told ABC News in a statement, "Selma experienced a medical emergency that led to the alleged conduct. Upon landing, she received immediate medical attention and is currently in stable condition."

The actress is due back in court on Jan. 19.

Over a decade ago, in June 2016, Blair was removed from a plane on a stretcher and hospitalized after reportedly causing a scene.

Blair later apologized in a statement to Vanity Fair, saying at the time that she had been under the influence at the time of the incident.

"I made a big mistake yesterday. After a lovely trip with my son and his Dad, I mixed alcohol with medication, and that caused me to black out and led me to say and do things that I deeply regret," she said at the time.

New surveillance video is shedding light about the circumstances behind the viral feud between singer Kelly Clarkson and a novelty store in Brooklyn.

The video, which was obtained by the Pablo Torre Finds Out podcast and does not have any audio, appears to show the moments leading up to Clarkson's social media complaint about the customer service treatment she said she received at Art of Play, a magic and games store.

Clarkson appears in the grainy surveillance video wearing a yellow shirt and baseball cap. She can be seen browsing items in the store, testing a kaleidoscope and examining a wooden songbird on display named "Molly."

The singer is then seen setting the kaleidoscope down, moving toward the bird, talking to an employee, presumably about the bird, pointing at it and later, moving toward the exit, before backtracking to speak to a cashier.

Shortly after the store encounter, Clarkson posted on X, comparing her experience to that of the fictional Vivian's experience with staff at a clothing store in the 1990 movie Pretty Woman.

In a social media statement, Art of Play said Clarkson had inquired about "Molly," a one-of-a-kind automaton that serves as the store's mascot and is not available for sale.

Clarkson responded with another X post, sharing an alleged photo of "Molly" with a price tag nearby, and claiming a store employee told her "Molly" could be purchased for $15,000 before offering to show her another comparable item that cost less.

Art of Play co-owner Adam Rubin told online publication Curbed that Clarkson's decision to share the interaction online has put his store employees "in danger."

"We treated her like a normal person, but apparently that didn't live up to her expectations," Rubin said.

Since Clarkson's online posts were shared, Rubin said Art of Play has been flooded with backlash, including harassing messages and negative reviews.

Neither Clarkson nor Art of Play immediately replied to ABC News' request for comment.

John Boyega has revealed he is married and a father.

The Star Wars actor took to Instagram on Wednesday to confirm his growing family after opening up about the news in a recent interview with The Guardian.

"I’ve been married for coming up to two years now," Boyega told the outlet at the time.

The actor then said his wife is pregnant, and that he is the stepfather to her son. He did not disclose who his wife is during the interview.

“My baby’s on the way. We got a baby cooking,” Boyega said. “So, you know, my life is completely, completely fulfilled in terms of family. It’s been so nice with the timing.”

In his social media announcement post, Boyega shared a slideshow of photos with his wife, revealing her as the actress Tae Heckard. She has taken his last name and now goes by Tae Boyega, according to her Instagram. Notably, the pair both only follow one person on that social media platform — each other.

Boyega's post also includes a photo of him and Tae posing with his stepson. The last slide of the carousel features a video of Boyega rocking a sleeping newborn.

"Our bundle of joy has been with us for some time now but thank you for all the well wishes. Also my sister is about to pop! Wish her well too!" Boyega wrote. "Back to feeding this big baby!"

Elsewhere in The Guardian interview, Boyega said he and Tae had a small wedding akin to the one featured in the film Braveheart.

"I would love to have a wedding celebration. We both like the idea of celebrating something established, rather than celebrating the entry. And by then, we’ll have to shut Nigeria down!" Boyega said.

Joni Mitchell is giving her classic song "Both Sides, Now" a new meaning after becoming a United States citizen.

In a social media post on Tuesday, Mitchell shared a photo of herself smiling as she stands in front of a U.S. Department of Homeland Security flag and an American flag with the caption, "A journey that began 62 years ago."

The singer also shared a video of the moment where she is announced by the speaker, "Joni Mitchell, Canada." Applause follows from people in the audience as she gets up from her seat.

ABC News has reached out to a representative for Mitchell for further comment.

Mitchell was born on Nov. 7, 1943, in Fort Macleod, Alberta, Canada. According to a biography on her website, she and her family moved to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, when she was 9 and has since referred to it as her hometown.

In 1965, she moved to the U.S. with folk-singer Chuck Mitchell and the following year, she played a short set at the Newport Folk Festival in Newport, Rhode Island.

In 1967, she began pursuing her career as a solo artist and released her debut album Song to a Seagull in 1968. Since then, she's released 18 studio albums and nearly all of them were recorded and produced in the U.S.

Over the years, Mitchell has shared her thoughts about not being a U.S. citizen.

In 2024 at the Hollywood Bowl, during what was dubbed the Joni Jam, her first headlining concert in L.A. in 24 years, Mitchell urged the audience to "get out and vote," according to the New Musical Express.

"This is an important one," she said. "I wish I could vote — I'm Canadian. One of those lousy immigrants."

The trailer for Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew is here.

Netflix has released an official trailer for Greta Gerwig's film adaptation of the novel by C.S. Lewis. Gerwig wrote and directed the film that stars newcomers David McKenna and Beatrice Campbell alongside a star-studded ensemble including Emma Mackey, Carey Mulligan, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, Daniel Craig and Meryl Streep.

The teaser starts with Digory Kirke (McKenna) and Polly Plummer (Campbell) wondering if Digory's uncle Andrew is either "really mad" or a magician. We see the pair question their belief in magic before they enter a portal that takes them to a different world.

Led Zeppelin’s “Stairway to Heaven" plays as the young children explore their entirely new surroundings. The trailer ends with the moment Aslan the Lion sings Narnia into existence.

"Have you ever seen a world born?" the children are asked, as they watch it happen in awe.

Netflix recruited Gerwig to direct their Narnia adaptation back in 2020. In 2023, the director helmed the year's highest-grossing film, Barbie, which earned almost $1.5 billion worldwide.

“I was a child when I first read The Magician’s Nephew, and I fell in love with the gorgeously improbable but completely brilliant concept of a cosmic lion singing the world of Narnia to life,” Gerwig said in a May 2026 press release. “I didn’t know that I would grow up to make films, but a universe built out of music is an idea that always lived in my heart. It is the honor of a lifetime to be asked to imagine it into being."

Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew will receive a full theatrical release. The movie will begin sneak previews on IMAX screens on Feb. 10, 2027, with a global wide release on Feb. 12, 2027. It will drop to Netflix on April 2, 2027.

This release strategy is a rare occurrence for the streamer. While Netflix does sometimes have limited theatrical releases in order for its titles to qualify for the Oscars, it mostly prefers to have its films debut on its streaming platform. A press release from Netflix likened the rarity to the franchise's popularity.

"A rare phenomenon that spans generations and geographies, Narnia’s release will match the scale and fandom of C. S. Lewis’s [sic] beloved books," according to Netflix.

The single-day event raised $20 million for 10 nonprofit organizations that are dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls.

Additionally, Rodrigo has just set out on her The Unraveled Tour. The sold-out tour has sold over 1 million tickets worldwide.

Duane "Keffe D" Davis -- the only person ever charged with the murder of Tupac Shakur -- was sentenced to 40 years to life in prison Tuesday in a Las Vegas court after his conviction in August.

The sentence comes just over 30 years after the rap icon's drive-by shooting near the Las Vegas Strip on Sept. 7, 1996. Shakur succumbed to his gunshot wounds six days after being gunned down.

In the ensuing years, Davis went on to tell a remarkably consistent account of what happened that night. In multiple police interviews, on the pages of his own self-published memoir, and in multiple on-camera interviews for the world to see, Davis allegedly confessed to what prosecutors would describe as his "shot caller" role in the infamous killing.

"I beat the streets, I beat the Feds, and I beat cancer," prosecutor Marc DiGiacomo quoted of Davis' own words to the jury in his closing argument. "Now, he's trying to beat 12 of you... Mr. Davis is attempting to escape responsibility for a crime everybody knows he committed, even him... End of the day, hold him accountable for the crime he committed."

Davis, now 63, has said he plans to appeal his conviction.

A onetime Los Angeles gang leader who later retired to the Vegas suburbs, Davis was arrested in September 2023 and charged with murder with the use of a deadly weapon with the intent to promote, further or assist a criminal gang, in connection with Shakur's murder. He has been in custody ever since. Once arrested, Davis pleaded not guilty and insisted on his innocence.

His lawyers argued he lied about his involvement in the murder and that there wasn't enough proof to put him in Vegas that night, much less in the white Cadillac from which the fatal .40 Glock shots were allegedly fired.

"The danger in this case has always been, just because we say something, is it true?" Davis' lawyer Michael Sanft said in his attempt to persuade the jury.

But in the years prior, Davis had plenty to say about his crucial role in the killing. He repeatedly admitted to his alleged role in Shakur's death, which he said was prompted by an escalating tit-for-tat of diss track and gangland retaliation that all came to a deadly head after the Tyson vs. Seldon boxing match the night of the shooting.

In continuing to tell his story and even profit from it, prosecutors said, Davis violated his own previous immunity agreement with a joint LA-task force. In fact, Vegas investigators credit Davis' many public statements for reinvigorating the case -- statements they worked to corroborate.

A jury of 12 Clark County citizens agreed -- that Davis' own words, bolstered by other evidence brought at trial, were to be believed. After less than three hours' deliberation in August, they unanimously found Davis guilty of first-degree murder with the use of a deadly weapon.

Prosecutors said that, though he did not pull the trigger, Davis orchestrated the rap icon's drive-by shooting that night.

The truth is out there.

Ryan Coogler's reboot of The X-Files has been picked up to series. Hulu made the announcement about the series starring Danielle Deadwyler and Himesh Patel on Tuesday.

This reboot follows "two highly decorated but vastly different FBI agents" who "form an unlikely bond when they are assigned to a long-shuttered division devoted to cases involving unexplained phenomena," according to its official logline.

It will serve as a reimagining of the classic series created by Chris Carter that ran for nine seasons on Fox. The original show starred David Duchovny alongside Gillian Anderson.

Coogler wrote, directed and executive produced the reboot's pilot episode. He serves as an executive producer on the series alongside showrunner Jennifer Yale. In addition to starring, Deadwyler and Patel both co-executive produce.

“I’ve loved The X-Files for a long time, so getting the chance to write and direct the pilot has meant a great deal to me,” Coogler said. “What Chris Carter created is special, and we wanted to honor everything that made the original series connect with so many people while also finding our own way into that world."

Coogler continued, saying that Deadwyler and Patel, "along with the rest of our cast, have brought such original perspectives and performances to these characters, and watching that come together has been one of the most rewarding parts of the experience."

Making guest appearances in the new series are Amy Madigan, Steve Buscemi and Ben Foster.

Devery Jacobs, Lochlyn Munro, Tantoo Cardinal, Joel E. Montgrand and Sofia Grace Clifton make up the rest of the cast.

Disney is the parent company of ABC News and Hulu.

Actress Selma Blair was arraigned Monday evening on assault charges in New York, following an alleged altercation with flight attendants aboard a Delta flight from Los Angeles to New York City on Sunday.

She also had alleged altercations with a Port Authority officer and a registered nurse, according to a complaint obtained by ABC News.

A judge set bail for Blair at $20,000 cash, $60,000 bond or $60,000 partially secured bond, during her hearing on Monday. She was later released on bond and the case was adjourned to Jan. 19, 2027.

According to the criminal complaint filed in Queens, Blair is charged with two counts of assault in the second degree under New York Penal Law 120.05(3).

The Port Authority Police Department responded to a call Sunday night at John F. Kennedy International Airport regarding a physically abusive passenger aboard Delta flight 938, which was parked at the gate after arriving from Los Angeles International Airport, according to Port Authority officials.

The passenger, identified as Blair, was taken into custody following the alleged incident and transported to a hospital. Sources familiar with the matter told ABC News Blair was treated at Jamaica Hospital.

Two flight attendants sustained injuries as a result of the alleged incident, with one being transported to the hospital for further evaluation, according to Port Authority officials.

The pilots informed air traffic controllers ahead of landing that one person had a bloody nose and another person had bite marks and requested that medical personnel be waiting at the gate.

The complaint names Port Authority Police Officer Maria Suarez, who was kicked by Blair repeatedly in the face, neck and chest while the officer was helping transport Blair from John F. Kennedy Airport to an ambulance. The officer reported swelling to her jaw and substantial pain and was treated at a hospital, according to the complaint.

The second incident, involving registered nurse Ashley DeLeo, allegedly happened when she was assisting with Blair's medical treatment at Jamaica Hospital Medical Center, according to the complaint.

Blair allegedly kicked DeLeo in the chest and she reported substantial chest pain, according to the complaint.

In addition to the assault charges, Blair was issued a violation notice on Monday alerting her that she is facing federal charges of assaults within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States, a source familiar with the federal summons told ABC News.

The summons is answerable to the petty violations court in Brooklyn federal court, the sources said. There is no appearance date.

In a statement to ABC News, Blair's representative said, "Selma experienced a medical emergency that led to the alleged conduct. Upon landing, she received immediate medical attention and is currently in stable condition."

There was no operational impact to the flight as it arrived ahead of schedule, and law enforcement met the flight when it landed, according to Delta.

"Delta has zero tolerance for unruly or unlawful behavior, as the safety of our customers and crew always comes first," the airline said in a statement to ABC News.

The FBI and Federal Aviation Administration say they are investigating the alleged incident.

A family-owned newspaper and a corrupt sheriff’s department: the new documentary Kill. Bury. Print. takes viewers to rural Oklahoma, where a family searches for the truth, no matter the cost.

The true-crime doc from director Ben Klein follows newspaper publisher Bruce Willingham and his family as they report on, and fight against, law enforcement corruption in Idabel, Oklahoma.

This story of the McCurtain Gazette and the McCurtain County Sheriff’s Department begins in 2018. Reporter Chris Willingham, working for his family’s newspaper, writes a series of articles alleging department malfeasance under Sheriff Kevin Clardy. As his reporting digs into accusations of sexual affairs, drugs and violence within the sheriff’s department, Bruce Willingham and Chris Willingham find themselves in the department's crosshairs. 

Five years later, Clardy, Bruce Willingham and Chris Willingham are thrust into the media spotlight after Bruce Willingham releases secretly recorded audio of Clardy and county officials suggesting they kill and bury them.

Klein said he was rapt by the broader story of a small-town paper standing up to local law enforcement, but it was the Willingham family that inspired him to travel to Oklahoma to document the moment.

“The reason I felt like it could work was the family at the center of it, the Willingham family. Just this incredible family unit; you know, how much they preserved through all of this, how much they put on the line, how much they gave up. I just thought it was incredibly moving,” Klein said. 

Rachel Maddow serves as a producer on the project. She told ABC Audio she kept tabs on what was happening in McCurtain County after the audio recording was released, then learned Klein was helming a documentary about the Willinghams and the McCurtain Gazette.

“The courage and the pluck of this family-run paper was so impressive to me, I just sort of couldn’t believe it,” Maddow said. “It really stuck with me, and I didn’t know how or when I’d go back to the story.”

Sensitive to the precariousness of their situation and the trust they were putting in him, Klein spent the next three and a half years trying to capture the Willinghams’ lives as they faced backlash and intimidation from the sheriff’s department. But he said Kill. Bury. Print. also explores community members’ experiences.

"I wanted to amplify their message, and I also wanted to meet many other people who were involved. This was not just some story that affected the Willingham family, this was the entire county. I can’t tell you how many people we spoke to who were affected by this story … [many of whom] weren’t willing to speak to us out of fear of retribution," Klein said. 

Kill. Bury. Print. is now streaming on Peacock. It will be awarded the 2026 David Carr Award for Truth in Non-Fiction Filmmaking during the Montclair Film Festival on Oct. 17.

RJ Mitte, who starred in Breaking Bad, has died, according to a statement from his representative. He was 34.

"It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of beloved actor, philanthropist, and passionate disability rights advocate RJ Mitte," the statement said.

No cause of death was given via Mitte's representative.

The actor, who lived with cerebral palsy, rose to fame on AMC's award-winning series as Walter White Jr., the son of the show's titular character, Walter White, played by Bryan Cranston.

Mitte drew from his own experience living with the neurological disorder and used his platform to raise awareness about it.

The actor starred in Breaking Bad for all five seasons of the show.

Earlier this month, he appeared on the Joe Vulpis Podcast and reflected on what it was like auditioning for Breaking Bad, saying that it was "one of the longest auditions of my life."

"I was one of the very last main cast to be in the series," he said. "I already missed the cast dinner."

Mitte also starred in Switched at Birth, The Guardians of Justice, The Oak Room and more.

Outside of acting, Mitte was an ambassador for United Cerebral Palsy and Shriners Children's. He also served as the president of The Mitte Foundation.

In October 2025, Mitte proposed to his girlfriend of five years, Kennedy Suarez.

At the time, he told People that Suarez was his "everything" and that he couldn't wait to "start our life together."

Selma Blair was arrested and is facing assault charges following an alleged altercation with flight attendants aboard a Delta flight from Los Angeles to New York City on Sunday, according to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

The Port Authority Police Department responded to a call Sunday night at John F. Kennedy International Airport regarding a physically abusive passenger aboard Delta flight 938, which was parked at the gate after arriving from Los Angeles International Airport, according to Port Authority officials.

The passenger, identified as Blair, was taken into custody following the alleged incident and transported to a hospital. Sources familiar with the matter told ABC News Blair was treated at Jamaica Hospital.

In a statement to ABC News, Blair's representative said, "Selma experienced a medical emergency that led to the alleged conduct. Upon landing, she received immediate medical attention and is currently in stable condition."

"Delta has zero tolerance for unruly or unlawful behavior, as the safety of our customers and crew always comes first," the airline said in a statement to ABC News.

The FBI and Federal Aviation Administration say they are investigating the alleged incident.

Sources familiar with the alleged incident told ABC News Blair arrived at Queens Central Booking on Monday, where she is facing two counts of assault for allegedly kicking an officer from the Port Authority Police Department. Blair is also facing a potential charge for an altercation with a nurse at the hospital, the sources said.

Blair was also issued a violation notice alerting her that she is facing federal charges of assaults within the special maritime and territorial jurisdiction of the United States, a source familiar with the federal summons told ABC News.

The summons is answerable to the petty violations court in Brooklyn federal court, the sources said. There is no appearance date.

This is not the first time that Blair has been involved with an incident on a flight. In June 2016, the actress was removed from a plane on a stretcher and hospitalized after reportedly causing a scene.

Blair later apologized in a statement to Vanity Fair, saying that she had been under the influence at the time of the incident.

"I made a big mistake yesterday. After a lovely trip with my son and his Dad, I mixed alcohol with medication, and that caused me to black out and led me to say and do things that I deeply regret," she said at the time.

She added, "I take this very seriously, and I apologize to all of the passengers and crew that I disturbed and am thankful to all of the people who helped me in the aftermath. I am a flawed human being who makes mistakes and am filled with shame over this incident. I am truly very sorry."

Blair also opened up about the 2016 incident during a visit to The Talk in October that year, saying she'd had a "total psychotic blackout."

"It was horrible and frightening and I had empathy for myself actually afterwards because it was actually so out of character for me, especially because I'm a mother," she added.

Blair, who is known for films like The Sweetest Thing, Cruel Intentions, Legally Blonde and more, was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2018. In 2021, she announced that she was in remission.

Dan Levy is sharing his thoughts on Shane Gillis' recent Saturday Night Live monologue.

Gillis hosted the Oct. 10 episode of Saturday Night Live, where he performed a stand-up comedy routine as his monologue. Part of his routine included a bit about the way women dress when they go to the gym.

"I haven’t been to the gym in so long, I didn’t know women just dress like w***** now. Look, I’m sorry, there’s no other way to describe [it]. Have you seen it? I’ve seen it. You’ve seen the shorts?" Gillis said.

Levy took to Instagram on Sunday, where he posted a video sharing thoughts on some of the things Gillis said in his monologue.

"Women wearing short shorts at the gym does not make them w*****. It makes the men calling them w***** misogynists. There’s a difference there. By the way, I’ve seen more men’s nipples at the gym than I’ve ever seen women showing their bodies off," Levy said.

Gillis' monologue included more details about the shorts he says women wear, calling them "those neon artificial bait-colored" ones where "the wrinkles go around the cheeks and all combine at the butthole."

Gillis continued, saying, "And don't look! You’re not allowed to look. For real! Don’t look, ‘cause they are filming."

Levy continued his video by saying, "I’m speechless that something like that can exist on live national television. And to be perfectly honest, more men need to be standing up in opposition to it because it’s complacency that has created the environment in which women are sexually assaulted and it’s a ‘conversation’ as opposed to a ‘crime.’"

The Schitt's Creek actor also said that "men need to be defending women more."

"This is not a women’s issue, this is an everybody issue. Because the more that men objectify women in the media, the more that other men see them as objects and treat them as objects. They are not objects, they are superior human beings to men, OK?" Levy said.

Levy hosted Saturday Night Live in 2021. Gillis has hosted the series two other times, once in 2024 and again in 2025. He was previously fired from the program in 2019 before he ever made an appearance as a cast member due to anti-Asian and anti-LGBTQ+ comments he made resurfacing.

Kelly Clarkson is feuding with a magic and games store in Brooklyn, New York.

Clarkson claimed in an Oct. 10 social media post that she was treated rudely while shopping at the store, called Art of Play, on Saturday. She compared her experience to how Julia Roberts' character Vivian from the 1990 movie Pretty Woman is treated by staff at a high-end clothing store.

"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't afford it and was told he could find something comparable for me," the singer and former talk show host wrote. "Wow, dude. You're an idiot and just lost a huge sale. But y'all should go check out Art of Play in Brooklyn if you enjoy being treated like Julia Roberts character in Pretty Woman. For sure, check it out."

Clarkson's post quickly went viral and has since garnered more than 43 million views.

By Sunday, Art of Play had posted a response on its social media pages, claiming in an Instagram post that Clarkson had asked about an item that was not for sale.

"Yesterday, Kelly Clarkson visited us in Brooklyn and inquired about buying 'Molly,' a one-of-a-kind singing and dancing bird automaton who plays an important role in the magic shows we host here. Molly is permanently attached to the wall and isn't for sale," the store wrote.

It added, "We're going to keep our heads down and hopefully, we can clear things up with Kelly someday."

In a follow-up post, Clarkson shared a photo of the item she had asked about buying, which showed a price tag next to the bird.

"Cool, cool. Sure, it wasn't for sale," she wrote. "That's the narrative Art of Play is gonna go with so the whole conversation we had when I asked you if it was for sale whilst pointing to the price tag hanging on the wall with the title Singing Bird didn't happen as you elevator eyed me saying in a condescending tone 'yes, it's for sale but it costs 15,000 dollars so if you'd like me to find something comparable for you I can.' That all never happened and now it's not for sale. Okay, cool."

Art of Play then responded with a "clarification," calling the dispute a "misunderstanding" and saying it had subsequently reached out to Clarkson "to try and clear the air."

"During the 5 minutes she spent in the store, [Clarkson] inquired about our mechanical bird puppet named Molly. We explained that while Molly is permanently attached to the wall and serves as a de facto mascot for our shop, a nearly identical automaton is owned by the creator of the machines, a brilliant artist named Bliss Kolb who lives in Seattle," the store wrote. "He told us he would be willing to part with Molly's twin for $15,000."

It continued, "We explained all of this to Kelly Clarkson. We also offered to show her a different singing bird automaton, made by a traditional clockmaking shop in Germany, that she could have taken home with her that day. It costs about $2,000. She did not stick around long enough to see it."

Both Clarkson's and Art of Play's posts have attracted supporters and critics alike, with some pointing out the apparent discrepancies in the shop's initial response and it's follow-up reply and others criticizing Clarkson for taking the feud public.

ABC News has reached out to Clarkson and Art of Play for comment.
