Outrageous Celebrity Purchases

 
Lady Gaga might terrify us with some of her ghastly outfits. But when it comes to fighting her own fear, in this case, ghosts she splashed out $50,000 to get a ghost detector. A firm believer in ghosts, Gaga reportedly dropped $50,000 on electromagnetic field equipment and other ghost-detecting gear.



Mike Tyson, The former heavyweight boxer is known for his lavish spending (remember those Bengal tigers?), but the $2 million bathtub he purchased for his ex-wife Robin Givens may top the list of Tyson’s most outrageous purchases. Kind of helps explain how the guy ended up with $38 million in debt.



Leggings have become a firm fashion favourite with celebs over the last few years, but none have been fonder of the humble lycra tights than Beyonce. The singer wore a pair of gold, Balenciaga leggings in 2007 that were worth $100,000. And the singer’s elaborate spending doesn’t stop at clothes. She treated her husband, Jay-Z, to a $1.7 million Bugatti sports car for his 41st birthday.




Justin Bieber isn’t the only teen in celebland who spends loads on their locks – Miley Cyrus has also been known to spend a bundle on her hair. She apparently blew $24,000 on hair extensions that were flown in directly to the singer from Italy.




Nicolas Cage outbid Leonardo DiCaprio for a dinosaur skull. Cage who reportedly owns a jet, two yachts, three castles, two islands in the Bahamas, a fleet of about 50 cars, shelled out $276,000 for the fossil. Among his dozen or so mansions, one Bel Air home, purchased in 1998, features a billiard room with a 1955 Jaguar parked inside plus an array of shrunken heads.



Seriously these people have way too much money!
