 Rapper Fined for Hitting His Monkey | | By: Robnoxious | Published: 06/01/2002 | | |  |

PARIS - A court fined French rapper Joey Starr 9,750 euros ($9,100) after he hit his pet monkey on television, sparking a storm of protest from animal rights activists including former film star Brigitte Bardot.
Starr slapped the caged Barbary ape several times during a program recorded at his home in March by the M6 commercial channel, provoking a flood of complaints from viewers that alerted Bardot and other animal rights groups.
The court in the Paris suburb of Bobigny found Starr, whose real name is Didier Morville, guilty of maltreating an animal and illegally possessing a protected species.
Barbary apes are found in bands in Algeria, Morocco and on the Rock of Gibraltar.
Starr has a number of convictions for violence, including assaults on an air hostess and on his partner.
