Michael Jackson's Hair Set To Be Auctioned

I will admit this, if Michael stayed at my hotel and I found his hair.. You better believe I'm keeping and honoring it lol!! I'd never sell it though!!!!!!!!

I don't think this whole things is AS big of a deal as some are making it to be. Michael has sold personal belongings of his before.. There is a memoralbelia store that I go into every so often when im in L.A. and Michael has walked right in there and handed them a half eaten orenge and sold it to them..

So if someone sold his hair, ya I think it's not in my taste.. I'd keep it.. BUT!! I don't think it's such a horrible thing where we have to talk crap about it
 
KOPV, hair is not a problem per se. Many parents keep a lock of hair from baby's first cut etc. and there is nothing wrong with that. For example, I have/keep one whisker (which broke off) of my cat who died 2008. :sad:

The problem is with the way how MJ's hair was retrieved (from a shower drain) and the reason why - $$$!
If Michael was in my hotel I would have politely asked him to take a picture with me + autograph or something like that and I would treasure that forever BUT certainly I would not seek MJ's hair in his bathroom or bedroom with...

I'd save his hair from a shower drain.. call me sick if you'd like.. The big difference is I would not do it for profit!!


This is not the first MJ related thing that has been sold that has been from that hotel.. There was a sketch also that MJ did..



To mention something real quick, there is a CHANCE that hair really is not from the shower drain.. It could be a sale tactic.. MAYBE.. There they have a hair styling salon.. What if he had his hair styled there and they kept hair from there.. But the running headline of it being from the shower "sells" better.. Or maybe it was from a drain in the salon and not really his room. The salon has done work with MJ before including 2001 30th anniversary
 
Michael was wearing a WIG after the 80's Pepsi accident. He almost didn't have his own hair on the head since then.
The other question is: from what part of Michael's body this hair is???
 
Although I see a buyer has made a 1k usd bid on this auction Lot, they could be saving themselves some money and buy exactly the same thing on ebay for 199usd.....same picture ! Good job it comes with a certificate of 'autensity' sic.(excuse the thinly veiled sarcasm).

It doesn't matter what the item is, someone, somewhere will fake it....and some sellers don't even go to the trouble of faking it before they offer it for sale......smdh

Michael did not always wear wigs after Pepsi accident.. Wigs for the most part came later.. Michael used more hair pieces and some areas weaved in than wigs over all.. Alot of his real hair showed often, not soo much in the late 90's through 00's but we've definitally seen his real hair..

There is a reason we stopped seeing much "baby hair" in the later part of the 90's
 
The Most Bizarre Use for Michael Jackson's Old Hair Ever

Today the gambling website OnlineGamblingPal.com dropped $10,871 for a sample of entombed pop star Michael Jackson's old hair. Why so much? Because that's the going market rate for the amount of Michael Jackson hair you see in the photo.

Also, they saw the hairball's potential—as a roulette ball. Turning Michael Jackson's old hair into a ball that will roll around on a table winning and losing people money, is "an appropriately unique way to immortalize a small part of a truly peerless entertainer," states OnlineEtCetera's website. "The ball itself will be made to the highest professional standards [Thank heavens! After Subpar roulette balls will ruin your gambling experience—Ed.] Ensuring it will be eligible for use at any licensed casino's roulette table.

Indeed, considering Jackson dedicated his life to entertaining millions, the prospect of this very special ball captivating crowds at roulette tables seems like a fitting use for it." You know how hundreds of years ago Catholic people extracted bone fragments from old saints' bodies, cut them into little shapes, inserted them into fancy golden crosses or stuck them on pillow- shaped objects, and turned them into spooky relics? This is just like that.

Seems like a fairly cheap way of advertising their online 'product' ie get the press to publicise it. You'd pay a lot more than that for ordinary newspaper advertising....guess they'll try and get on TV with it too. But who would know if they really have used the hair for this pupose.... I guess you'll never be able to see it?

I just hope that it is not really MJ's hair. (Seems disrespectful to me).
 
I cannot believe what I just read....this might give the Jack$on$ (read Latoya & Rebbie), some bizarre ideas

yeah ya know this really does make me want to vomit...I really dont put anything past them.:puke:

Gambling site to convert Michael Jackson's hair into roulette ball

Rollingstone.com

In today's macabre Michael Jackson news: A gambling website has purchased some of the singer's hair and plans to convert it into a roulette ball.
Bing: Michael Jackson's music
Championed in a press release under the heading "The King of Pop to Rock & Roll Again," the casino website purchased the small portion of hair from an online memorabilia merchant, Gotta Have Rock & Roll, for $10,871. (The sellers, in turn, nicked it from the Carlyle Hotel in New York after Jackson stayed there.)
Tell us on Facebook: What do you think of the site's plans?
"As its proud new owners, we have decided to convert Michael Jackson's hair into a roulette ball -- an appropriately unique way to immortalize a small part of a truly peerless entertainer," said OnlineGamblingPal.com in a statement. "The ball itself will be made to the highest professional standards, ensuring it will be eligible for use at any licensed casino's roulette table. Indeed, considering Jackson dedicated his life to entertaining millions, the prospect of this very special ball captivating crowds at roulette tables seems like a fitting use for it. . . Together, we can ensure Michael Jackson continues to rock and 'ROLL' forever."
May we suggest a new slogan for the website: "It don't matter if you're black or red."

Hmmm..........anything to attract a crowd.
