Jack White's passion for stuffed animals lands him in hot water with his model wife Karen Elson - she has begged him to stop bringing the macabre souvenirs home from concerts.

The White Stripes rocker is a big fan of taxidermy and has a wide collection of lifelike dead creatures at the couple's home in Nashville, Tennessee. But his obsession is getting out of hand - and Elson dreads White heading out on tour as he always returns with a stuffed exotic animal.

She tells Harper's Bazaar, "He loves a good stuffed animal, my husband, to the point where... (I say) 'Please don't come off tour with another creature.' I mean, some of the stuff is beautiful but... they're his, not mine." (ZN/BAZ/MJ)
