Isn’t it ironic? An artist who decries material possessions is robbed of two million dollars worth of jewels during a home invasion. It’s a veritable ten-thousand spoons scenario.
Alanis Morissette’s quiet Brentwood home was unfortunately hit by criminals last week, with the aforementioned jewelry stolen during the raid. It is unknown whether anything else was stolen.
At the risk of quoting TMZ, the publication were told by police officers attending the burglary that real-time social media updates letting criminals know when stars aren’t home for extended periods are in part to blame for the influx of robberies.
“Cops tell us it’s simple for thieves to find out where people live, and by posting pics of jewelry in the home it becomes a roadmap for a quick hit. They say the problem is compounded when celebs post vacation photos in real time, because it’s like a neon sign to break in.”
