The piece by Banksy, which features the dethroned king of pop standing in the doorway of a cottage trying to coax a young boy and girl into his house with sweets, is inspired by the classic fairytale Hansel and Gretel, and is apparently a reference to the child abuse scandal surrounding Jackson last year.
The painting is not the only one that will be on display at Brad and Ange’s home, for the couple also picked up several other pieces of the artist’s work when they visited his recent Los Angeles exhibition, according to The Post Chronicle.
However, for all his popularity, the artist - who began his career spray painting public walls - refuses to reveal his identity, for he will get into an awful lot of trouble with the law the moment he does.
His previous works have not only included a portrait of two policemen locked in a homosexual embrace, but he also infamously replaced hundreds of Paris Hilton’s debut music album CDs with his own remixes earlier this year.
And, to make matters worse, Banksy not only replaced song names with his own titles such as Why am I Famous?, What Have I Done? and What Am I For?, but also changed her picture on the CD sleeve, thanks to which Paris was left topless, with a dog's head. (ANI)
