Justin Bieber’s Hair Earns More Money Than You Do

Never mind Libya, the biggest story this week has been Justin Bieber’s hair. And yesterday things got even more exciting (if you’re a tween), when the pop culture deity decided to donate a lock of his mane to another famous lesbian, Ellen DeGeneres. She then did what any other sensible person would do when receiving such a prized gift, she put it on eBay.

After just one day the highest bid stands at $7000! Let’s put that into perspective, shall we? At the current exchange rate, that’s about R50,000. So while you slave away, counting the seconds till the weekend, just remember that an inch of Bieber’s hair earns more in one day, than you do in a month (or several months for many of us, especially if you’re a starving young writer).

I should mention that the money is apparently going to charity, not that this makes the story any less creepy, or our society seem any less insane.
