Exorcise Your Ex

• 13th Mar 2009

You know how it is, you go out with someone for a bit, then it all breaks down in a fit of acrimony and you're left with a load of things you don't want that have thousands of memories attached that stab you like a knife to your heart every time you look at them. Right? Well, Catherine AD is here to help.

The singer is about to shoot the video for her new single and wants you to give her all of that stuff so that she can smash it up for you. She explained: “As part of the video we will have some scenes of destruction where I will do my best to slay your demons and exorcise any possession of your choice that you are happy to part with and see destroyed on film. Suggested object might include: CDs, books, stuffed animals/toys, clothing – tshirts, wedding dresses, photos, trinkets, vinyl records, video tapes/VHSs, giant valentine's cards/birthday cards, love letters, mixtapes etc etc. You get the idea. If you would like to send a short note with the item to explain its history or origin we may also utilise this as part of the artwork/film (although we haven't firmed this up yet) but I am pretty nosy and love hearing stories…”

Catherine continues:

“Please make sure you OWN the items you want to send in. I don't want any lawsuits about family heirlooms or valuable wedding photos… (but we will be obscuring the faces in any pictures used). To be clear – we will be destroying these items so please don't send in anything that you want to keep! (duh… this might seem like a really obvious point to make but… yer know… I can't afford the legal fees).

Items should be sent to the address below by 29 Mar. Any items not used will be given to charity:
