Wacky Icelandic singer Bjork reportedly lost her shit on a photographer after arriving in New Zealand over the weekend. Tiny Bjork, who previously assaulted a reporter in 1996, tore at photographer Glenn Jeffrey’s shirt while walking through Auckland International Airport.

“I took a couple of pictures and I got about three or four frames of her … and as I turned and walked away she came up behind me, grabbed the back of my black skivvy and tore it down the back.

“As she did this she fell over, she fell to the ground. At no stage did I touch her or speak with her.”

Bjork said nothing throughout the incident but the man with her was saying: “B, don’t do this, B, don’t do this,”‘ Jeffrey said.

Jeffrey spoke to Auckland police yesterday. He said: “I don’t see being assaulted as I’m working as a press photographer as an acceptable thing. If anybody assaults anybody you have the right to a legal recourse, whoever they are.”

I don’t have anything to add to this story, other than I think Volta is a really good disc, and I would like to avoid a Bjork beat down if she comes to Boston.

That’s all.
