Idol DNA for Sale on e-bay
Idol fan auctions off American Idol, Kelly Clarkson's, water bottle after recovering it at a recent concert. Kelly Clarkson fans have two more days to bid on a one and only item being auctioned off on e-bay. The anonymous seller from Ames, Iowa is hoping to cash in on a used water bottle from Clarkson's concert in Omaha. "I am auctioning off (1) 16.9 fluid ounce bottle of Dasani bottled water that Kelly Clarkson drank out of during her concert on April 2. ... Do you want to own some Kelly Clarkson DNA, then this is your chance," says the seller. The prized water bottle was obtained by the unknown fan thanks to a seat in row 1 at Clarkson's show, giving him, or her, the perfect opportunity to snag the bottle. The best part - there's still water in it, so fans can share a drink with their favorite Idol star. Unfortunately, Idol-goers don't seem to see the value - with just two days left there's been only three bids, reaching a total of $20.50.
Utah Man Auctioning off Middle Name Rights on E-bay
Some people take suggestions for baby names, why not your own? 31-year old Matthew Jean Rouse's middle name came from his late grandfather, a man he didn't really get along with. So he is auctioning off his naming rights on E-bay! Rouse is taking bids on the right to choose his new middle name, whatever it might be. The top offer as of early Monday is $2,175, with the "Buy It Now" price at $8,000. Of course, there is the distinct possibility he could get a pretty usual and possibly distasteful name. His wife Corinna says, "If he wants to walk around with 'Fool' as his middle name, that's his problem. If someone changes his name to 'Poophead,' he may decide it's a little more important than he thought." Rouse's older brother, Bill, put in a bid of $1,500 in an effort to make Matthew keep the family name of his grandfather, but the bid kept rising. Whatever the final choice is, Rouse promises to use the moniker "whenever plausible and not hide it."
