Kevin Bacon (Aldara Zarraoa / Getty Images) Days ago, Kelly Clarkson made her displeasure with a toy store public. She likened her alleged condescending treatment by their salespeople to what Julia Roberts experienced in Pretty Woman when she went into a chic boutique in haute Beverly Hills. Now, it's Kevin Bacon's turn to announce his irritation with a major commercial entity - FedEx.

The giant shipper allegedly mishandled the package of vintage clothing that the A Few Good Men actor sent to Ireland. According to the stewing star, the garments have been going to almost every country except the one he wanted them sent to. Bacon is letting off some steam on social media about the mishap.

Bacon Sought To Ship the Clothing to Ireland Sounds simple, right? Kevin Bacon said on October 16 that "in an attempt to pack light on his way to Ireland for work, he decided to ship 'some old clothes' to his temporary home," per People. In a video posted on Instagram, he explained, "I don't buy a lot of clothes, I've had these clothes probably since the 90s. So, I used a shipping service that — I don't want to say the name, but it rhymes with Bredex."

That was the start of the items' alleged worldwide odyssey. According to Bacon, the collection of throwback fashion "traveled from New York to Memphis to France and then to Germany. From there, [the box] was shipped to Israel before being returned to France....," per the outlet. In fact, the container allegedly did some more far-flung zigzagging before eventually ending up in England.
