Celebrity Scales → A silly idea here from 2006 that poked a bit of fun at celebrity culture. Myself and friends Angry replaced the number dial within a set of weighing scales with the names of popular celebrities (popular in 2006 that is).
From Baby Jesus to King Kong
Somehow a set made their way onto the Jonathon Ross show where he weighed Kirsten Dunst and Tobey Maguire in a kind of celebrity-on-the-celebrity-scales-Inception scenario.
The whole adventure ended when Judge Judy (who also featured on the scales) issued a cease and desist letter.
Here’s a fun pic of our production line:
My clever brother Seán created an ingenious tool from clothes hangers and padding to help us dismantle the scales without taking lumps out of our hands.
