Rocker’s ex must pay up

A ROCK star’s ex-wife has claimed she is too poor to pay money due to workers in her failed Dublin beauty salon.

Karla Elliott, former wife of Def Leppard lead singer Joe Elliott, has told former employees of her Sanas Beauty Salon in Churchtown, which went out of business almost two years ago, that she cannot afford to pay them outstanding wages.

The socialite and former model did not appear before a hearing of the Employment Appeals Tribunal in Dublin yesterday.
