Roxy Jacenko's Paddington office hit by fresh graffiti attack
By Andrew Hornery
Controversial Sydney publicist Roxy Jacenko arrived at her Paddington offices on Wednesday morning to be confronted by a series of fresh graffiti attacks.
Big black letters sprayed on the building said "Roxy is a c---" and were spotted by passersby about 8am.

A separate missive was sprayed on the wall of Syd Einfeld Drive.
A third graffiti attack also saying "Roxy is a c---" was seen on nearby Oatley Road in Paddington.
By 8.15am police had been called and were questioning Jacenko about the attack, which comes just days after neighbours complained about the high-profile blonde illegally parking her $400,000 Aston Martin Vantage on the cramped streets outside her headquarters.
Workers were seen gathering ladders and buckets outside the building as they prepared to clean off the graffiti, which is the third vandalism attack on Jacenko's building since she moved her Sweaty Betty business into the premises two years ago.

In April 2017, a thick, brown, foul-smelling sludge had been poured over the front door, entry area and intercom of Jacenko's offices over the Easter break.
A few months later, after Jacenko installed an elaborate array of high-tech security cameras on the building, it was paint-bombed.
Jacenko spent $1.4 million to fit out the building during a tough 12-month period following her highly publicised cancer diagnosis and husband Oliver Curtis’ equally newsworthy jail time after he was convicted of insider trading.
Police were seen questioning Jacenko, wearing active wear rather than her trademark designer garb and diamonds, and her husband outside the building on Wednesday morning.
The couple attempted to laugh off the latest attack as photographers began to arrive at the scene although it is understood the constant attacks - which have included her sell-out mentoring sessions being disrupted by abusive hecklers in February and a mysterious and unflattering email featuring her children - have taken a heavy toll on the couple.
Jacenko uses her colourful personal life, her luxury lifestyle, family dramas - including her estrangement from her father - and even her children as fodder on her various social media accounts, which are scrutinised daily by hundreds of thousands of followers.
Jacenko has courted media attention for years, but, as Wednesday's latest attack reveals, her high-profile has come at considerable personal cost.
A police spokesman confirmed on Wednesday morning they were investigating a "series of graffiti tags from Paddington to Woollahra".
