Bjork Quit Britain Over Mailbomb Scare.BJORK quit her adopted England for Spain after a bomb threat against her in 1996 made her feel like a public target.The Icelandic star admits she was strangely flattered by the craziness that led to deranged fan Ricardo Lopez sending her a mail bomb - because the headline-grabbing incident made her feel accepted. But then she knew it was time to leave England.She tells Spin magazine, "I had lived in England for three years, and I was an A-list celebrity there. It was me and five other people."It sounds really bigheaded, but it was just a fact. As a foreigner, I was kind of flattered. It was like I was being offered a role in their society: 'Will you be the person we watch and look at?' But I didn't like it."I felt if I breathed in, that 100,000 people were synchronising their breathing with me.
