1. Paris Hilton records an album (?!?!).
2. Album is distributed to HMV stores all over the UK.
3. Infamous graffiti artist Banksy replaces 500 of the CDs with his own remixes, including classics like "What am I for?" and "Why am I famous?".
4. He also replaces the CD sleeves, depicting a topless Paris Hilton with a dog's head.
5. He leaves the barcodes intact, so people buy unsuspectingly.
This is the best part:

A spokesman for HMV said the chain had recovered seven CDs from two Brighton shops but was unaware that other locations were affected.
No customers had complained or returned a doctored version, he said.
"Often people might have a view on something but feel they can't always express it, but it's down to the likes of Banksy to say often what people think about things.
"And it might be that there will be some people who agree with his views on the Paris Hilton album."
