10 of the most ridiculous celebrity purchases


10 of the most ridiculous celebrity purchases Let’s face it: celebrities have way too much money on their hands. So much so, in fact, that many don’t think twice about over-spending on items that no one could ever possibly need. Keep reading to review ten of the most ridiculous celebrity purchases in recent history.
10 Beyonce – $100,000 Pair of Leggings
beyonce leggings 135x95 10 of the most ridiculous celebrity purchases of all timeHey, I’m all for any product that shows off Beyonce’s booty, but seriously, $100,000 for a single pair of leggings? Crafted by Balenciaga and adorned with gold, Beyonce wore this purchase to the 2007 BET Awards. Most likely, she never wore them again (though, hopefully, she donated them to Goodwill).

9 Suri Cruise – $850 Purse

Back when she was three, her mommy bought her an $850 Salvatore Ferragamo purse. I guess you’ve got to have somewhere to put all those cookies and candy cell phones.

8 Amanda Seyfried – Dead Horse

Yep, as it turns out Amanda spotted a three-week old taxidermied pony while across the pond and just had to have it. No word on how much the horse cost, but my guess is she paid way too much for it.

7 Michael Vick – $85,000 Fish Pond

One such item was a custom fish pond that cost a whopping $85,000. Maybe all that time trading cigarettes in prison has taught Vick how to better manage his money.

6 Steven Spielberg – $60,000 Sled

Sure, the sled is a piece of cinema history, but there’s plenty of less expensive (and more practical) ways to get to and from the movie studio.


5 Rachel Hunter – $15,000 Doghouse

No, apparently her two puppies need a full-fledged Mediterranean-style mansion in which to lick their balls. The house comes from a company called la petite maison. Purportedly, dog homes from the company go for as much as $50,000.

4 Kanye West – Diamond Teeth

No, it’s not a grill… it’s actual dental implants! When asked why Kanye would do such a thing, he admitted, “I just thought that diamonds were cooler.”

3 Kim Basinger – $20 Million Town

Her goal was to turn the town into a destination for movie studios. The idea never really took off and Basinger eventually was forced to sell the town. Given this sound purchase, it should come as no surprise that Basinger was eventually forced to file for bankruptcy.
2 Bono – $1,700 Plane Ticket for His Hat

1 Lady Gaga – $50,000 Machines That Detect Ghosts
lady gaga ghosts 135x95 10 of the most ridiculous celebrity purchases of all timeI ain’t afraid of no ghost… but Lady Gaga is. Apparently, the flamboyant pop singer believes whole-heartedly that ghosts do exist. Moreover, she believes that they are out to get her. As such, she has invested in electro-magnetic field equipment in order to keep her “safe from spirits” when on the road. The price tag for the equipment is around $50,000.
