Michael Jackson’s Hair To Be Turned Into Diamonds
Two weeks ago, the video of Michael Jackson’s harrowing fire accident during the filming of a Pepsi commercial was released. Now, the hair collected from the accident is to be transformed into a diamond collection.
According to LifeGem’s press release, the producer of the commercial (Ralph Cohen) put out the flames with his jacket and collected a piece of Jackson’s hair that burned off. John Reznikoff, a collector, purchased the jacket and hair, and now plans on sending the hair away to LifeGem – a company that specializes in turning hair into diamonds.
In 2007, Renzikoff and LifeGem worked together to create a collection of diamonds from Beethoven’s hair.
“LifeGem specializes in creating diamonds from locks of hair, our plan is to give people an opportunity to own a diamond made from Michael Jackson’s DNA,” said Dean VandenBiesen founder of LifeGem. “We are currently evaluating the hair sample to determine how many diamonds can be created. This will be a limited collection and we anticipate great interest.”
John Reznikoff owns a large collection of celebrity hair, including pieces from Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Albert Einstein, and Marilyn Monroe.</em>
He ain’t in the ground yet, so there are still marketing dollars to tap. Let’s see…maybe his spleen could make a handbag? Imagine how much that would fetch, after all, he only had one, right? Hell, just roast him like a pig and sell bbq Jackson.
This is one sick society.
