Following Russell Brand‘s conviction on rape charges, his pubic hair has been removed from a curiosities museum in London.
The Viktor Wynd Museum of Curiosities, Fine Art & UnNatural History in the Hackney borough confirmed the decision to Variety. “I took them straight off display and have no desire to hear his name again – he has no place in my museum of horrors,” proprietor Viktor Wynd explained. “My museum is full of disgusting things but even I have limits.”
Wynd, an artist, had previously operated a Little Shop of Horrors before funding his current Museum of Curiosities on Kickstarter in 2015. The pubic hair is not independently verified to have belonged to Brand, and was given to Wynd by a woman who claimed to have shaved Brand at a salon in Camden Town.
