Business What Do You Get the Music Lover Who Has Everything?
Posted by David Schmader on Tue, Oct 13, 2009 at 10:43 AM
Another external hard drive, so all that everything doesn't disappear? An empty iPod, to fill up for you? An apron with "Good for You, You Have Everything" embroidered on it?
Nope: Old hair.
Here is a big wad of Elvis Presley's hair, believed to originate from Presley's pre-Army head-buzz of 1958, which is expected to sell for between $8,000 and $12,000 at auction October 18.
Below that are some wispy bits of Michael Jackson's hair, reportedly recovered from the coat placed over Jackson's head when his hair caught on fire during that Pepsi commercial shoot in 1984, which are expected to sell for around a thousand pounds at auction October 17.
Fun fact: This woman started her journey toward life by being shot out of the penis of the owner of the first wad of hair, and cemented her own fame by accepting the penis of the owner of the second wad of hair into her wifely loins. (Or so she continues to insist.)
