Justin Bieber's Hair Bought In Charity Auction For $40,668 By Casino

Most people's hair gets swept up on the barber shop floor and sent to the trash. Justin Bieber's? Far too valuable for the broom.

Bieber, who last week trimmed his prized mane in the hair cut heard round the world, delivered his hair to Ellen Degeneres, who put it up on eBay. The price skyrocketed, and when the final bid was placed before time ran out, it went for a staggering $40,688.

Don't worry. It was for charity. The cash will go to The Gentle Barn Foundation, an animal rescue organization, and the winner will get to hang out with Justin. The purchase was made by GoldenPalace.com, a frequent buyer at celebrity charity auctions. They said in a statement that they plan to put it on tour at Bieber concerts to raise more money for charity.

Seeing how iconic that haircut was I'll bet whoever bought the hair could make alot of money reselling it down the road, depending how his career goes of course. Maybe... BILLIONS!

Hmmm... if his hair is worth that much maybe poachers should get a toe or two and leave my favorite animal the elephant alone.

The stupidity outweighs the charitable act here.

Normally, I despise this kind of self-promotion stuff. But since this for the benefit of The Gentle Barn Foundation, and being an animal lover, I'll let it pass this time.

Props to him for doing so much for charity right now he has also raised almost $45,000 for charity water in three days. It's astounding

Adam Lambert raised over $250,000 for water in one day, but it was not on HP. If fact Justin did this after Adam ask fans to send money to the water project instead of sending him birthday gifts. A good cause, my nephew helps drill water wells in different African countries, every summer.
