She’s only been back in the PR game for three months and Roxy Jacenko is already claiming some controversy.

Confidential has learned she was given a $6000 fine for a stunt she pulled in December.She was reportedly fined by Waverly Council after she painted a set of concrete bollards pink to promote electric bike brand Flight Risk.

“It was quite a statement,” Jacenko claimed.

“They were already painted all different colours, some graffitied, so really the council should be happy, at least they were all one colour and had some uniformity.”

The Flight Risk electric bike brand is co-owned by Fone King retailer, Abraham Mikhail (the brother in law of Jackie O’s ex-flame, Jack Tyerman) and Bondi boy-about-town Dave Freeman, who is Kyle Sandilands best friend.

Celebrity riders include, Braith Anasta, Max May, Harry Garside, Kid Laroi, Ex Felon Spania, meaning the brand is certainly not going to go unnoticed.

The bollards have returned to their previous colours.
