Virtual Insanity - Jay Kay's Ferrari Enzo damaged by vandal
Jamiroquai frontman Jay Kay has learned that when you are the owner of a famous automobile collection, you best be careful about who you offend since they will know how to hit you where it hurts.
During a recent hotel stay, the Top Gear regular said something to rile up the joint's pastry chef while they were downing some drinks at the bar. Normally, such a quarrel would not amount to much attention, but if reality television has taught us anything, it is that English chefs have hot tempers and they like to hurl things in a fit of rage. In this instance, the young chef decided to release his anger by chucking stones at the singer's black Ferrari Enzo. The target practice amounted to about $40,000 worth of damage to the car's front windshield and driver's side window. While the repairs get underway, it looks like Jay Kay might have to make due by driving around in his Aston Martin DB5, Lamborghini Miura SV or even his Mercedes 300SL Roadster instead. Oh, the humanity. Thanks for the tips, everyone!

You want to pick a fight, grow some balls and do it face-face.
But don't touch the man's car.

Agreed. Jay Kay is a high caliber a$$hole, but this guy should have thrown rocks at him instead of the car.

So when is the chef's televised execution scheduled to be aired?

Looks like the passenger side door works good enough to brain the chef repeatedly by slamming the door on his head.

Those are expensive windows. What a gyp.

to think englishmen love calling the french pussies.
that guy's ankles deserve to have a high speed encounter with the hurt Enzo's carbon fibre bumper.

That might break the bumper... a lead pipe will suffice!

How can anyone get angry at Jay kay? He seems like such a great guy.
On a side note....a real pity North Americans never really caught on to his music. I guess between Paris Hilton and 50 Cent, there wasn't much space for good music on our charts!

Are you kidding me?
When I want to hear a circa 1974 Stevie Wonder song I will listen to a circa 1974 Stevie Wonder song. The man is just an English imitation of an American soul singer. We have our homegrown "blue eyed" soul singer, Robin Thicke, thank you very much.
Btw, he obviously was talking a major amount of crap to piss off somebody enough to do this.

Man, no offense, but if Paris Hilton and Fity are the 2 names that you first think of when you think American Music, your endorsement of "Jay kay" is more like an insult to him.

Ive never heard a Stevie Wonder song which sounds like "Little L". Or is fit for nightclub consumption.

Either way...it was obviously sarcasm when i referred to those two 'artists' lol. But it would have been great if his music did catch on here. Same goes for 'Garbage' and Natalie Imbruglia. If only Coldplay had stayed out tho...
Totally agreed on Thicke, btw.
Rob - Great post.

Awesome,
Yeah, maybe the guy shouldn't have busted up his car, but that's obviously the way to really piss this a-hole off.

That looks photoshopped.
