Cassettes and CDs by Irish singer Sinéad O'Connor are flattened by a pavement roller on New York City's Avenue of the Americas, October 21, 1992. The recordings, donated by unhappy record fans, were collected by the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations, which planned to deliver the crushed remains to the singer. In 1992, O’Connor destroyed a photo of Pope John Paul II on U.S. national television. The pushback was swift, turning the late Irish singer-songwriter’s protest of sеx abuse in the Catholic Church into a career-altering flashpoint. (Photo by Bebeto Matthews/AP Photo)
