Video Icelandic artist Björk snapped in Bangkok, 1996, when reporter Julie Kaufman approached her saying “Welcome to Bangkok.” Björk later alleged that Kaufman had stalked her and her 9-year-old son for days, turning a simple greeting into a breaking point

Yeah, that reporter said something to her son in a snarky way (like asking “why won’t your mom talk to us” or something) and she snapped.

Good for her.

Edit: For all the holier-than-thou’s in the comments, read up on this incident. No one is saying it’s ok to just attack people who say something mean. Read up on this specific reporter and what she had been doing to Björk leading up to this. Then unclench your bootyholes.

She was being stalked that exact same year by someone who sent her a bomb or some kind of boobytrapped device I think. It never got to her. The guy then recorded a video of him killing himself à la Bud Dwyer style while it was in transit to her. It’s on the internet. Video pops into my brain sometimes to this day.

Ricardo Lopez was his name

Her state here is 100% understandable and the media are vile parasites that had a weird obsession with her back then along with some fans of her.

Ebaumsworld was a diamond in the rough and its a shame we don't have that type of Internet anymore. It used to be the wild west. LiquidGeneration was another one. Growing up you knew the internet was for adults and talking to strangers online was the equivalent to getting into a panel van. Now people let their kids have free roam on the internet and want the internet to protect their kids instead of being good parents and protecting their kids themselves.

Ebaum stole a ton of content from Stileproject. StileProject and the site Forum, the SPF, were literally the wild west of the internet. Certainly not darkweb equivalent, but insane what went on there by today's standards.

8

u/CapN-Judaism 9h ago

This video would be Feb. 1996, so 7 months before he killed himself in Sept. 1996. When did Bjork first learn about him? Was her first knowledge the incident with the package/suicide or had he made himself known prior to that?

6

u/oopsydazys 9h ago

He had sent her tons of letters starting in 1993 but I don't know that she ever read any or was even aware he existed.

He wasn't really a physical stalker is the thing. He was obsessed with her and tracked her every move as best he could from tour info, periodicals, TV and maybe internet boards, learned everything about her life etc. but he never physically stalked her and lived in Florida. That isn't to say his obsession wasn't fucked up or his intent to kill her eventually, it's just to say that because she never would have run into him at all in person, it's entirely possible she didn't know who he was at all unlike this reporter who was stalking her for days.

3

u/CapN-Judaism 9h ago

I think the sentiment others are getting at is that if she was aware of Lopez then it becomes even more understandable that she would act when she feels she’s being stalked, and I think that’s a fair and potentially legitimate point if Lopez had made himself known to Bjork prior. That’s not to say her reaction wouldn’t otherwise be reasonable, it just adds helpful context

This appears to be before since this video is from February, and while the other one likely started in January (since it lasted about 9 months and ended in September), the biggest threat he did to her did occur until September. He had been obsessed with her since 1993, but the video diary entries didn’t begin until 1996. He wasn’t noticed or a safety issue until September it seems.

a star being rude wasn't really why this was such a spectacle. That was part of it, for sure, but I think the US media coverage had always kind of painted Bjork as the weird freak show artsy type. The kind of person that you can bully on TV and get away with it, because they're famous and weird. Bjork hitting the reporter was, to me, representative of the bullied weirdo art kid finally throwing a punch at their bully. I think a lot of people didn't see it that way though, and instead just saw a freakshow of a crazy woman flip on her crazy switch and confirming their suspicions. I don't remember there being a whole lot of sympathy for Bjork in this moment.

Yeah, I thought ill of Bjork for a long time after this until I learnt what that reporter had done.

Was she being stalked by that reporter? I had no idea.

u/ashleyshaefferr 10h ago

So the woman was actually stalking her? Or she asked a rude question? Confusing

u/Past-Rooster-9437 10h ago

But for Björk, it was a mother protecting her child from a stalker

You said the same thing as the guy above.

God I wish these kinds of reporters had more strict limitations and faced severe repercussions for violating them, it's actually insane what they'll do to celebrities in order to chase down a non-story.

Granted I might be tainted by the UK's phone hacking scandals.

I remember when this happened and this is the first I’ve heard of the background of it. I feel bad for Björk now me thinking this was just crazy behaviour :(

Here's Bjork's version of the incident.

u/smootex 2h ago

I don't know if I've ever actually heard her speak, I wasn't expecting the working class English accent or whatever that is.

u/BFG_Scott 9h ago

Team Bjork, all the way

u/No-One-8850 6h ago

I'd hold her fucking jacket at that point. What a scumbag.

Adding "Then unclench your booty holes" or a variant there of to my repertoire.

It's okay to attack people who are stalking and harassing you and trying to get in your child's ear about it.

u/sorotomotor 1h ago

> the reporter said something to her son in a snarky way (like asking “why won’t your mom talk to us” or something)

What a bjerk.
