Michael's Burnt Hair To Be Made Into Diamonds!
We really hope someone puts a stop to this!!!!
Burnt scraps of Michael Jackson hair, snatched from the infamous Pepsi commercial shoot where MJ's hair went up in flames, are going to be made into diamonds!!!
WTF????
We had no clue that this was humanly possible, but apparently diamonds can be created from individual hair strands by using the owner's DNA.
Ralph Cohen, the executive producer on the 1984 Pepsi shoot, helped put out the flames on Michael's head with his Armani jacket. He then reportedly grabbed the singed scraps of Jackson's hair and stuffed them into his jacket pockets.
Ew!
After MJ's passing, Cohen passed the burnt hair follicles over to a celebrity hair collector by the name of John Reznikoff, and Reznikoff contacted the Chicago-based jewler, LifeGem.
Reznikoff is an avid hair collector, having already made diamonds out of Beethoven's hair via LifeGem, and has the hair of Abraham Lincoln, Marilyn Monroe and Albert Einstein in his collection!
Says Reznikoff: "The provenance and authenticity of this lock of hair is impeccable, including the highly publicized video showing the original owner of the hair using his Armani jacket to extinguish Jackson' hair."
LifeGem is currently sizing up Jackson's burnt locks and trying to figure out the number of diamonds they can create for a limited sale.
So freaky!!!

Wintour's Way Is Not Working! Changing It
ENOUGH. NO ONE CARES ANYMORE. TRULY.
Wow, Perez impressive. You got your own little 'National Enquirer' simulated blog on here.
MACABRO!!!!
And also from Madonna's armpits.
thats crazy, soo not true. =/
I mean….
If hes a collector and does this kinda thing I dont think its so weird.
I would probly do it. I would never sell them though. I think its kinda neat to hold a piece of history like that.
Come on really….
Who can say they have a diamond made from Beethovens hair?? I think (if it were my hobby) it would be awesome to have a piece of history like that. Abraham Lincoln?! Albert Einstein!?!
Very neat stuff.
welll I DNT KNOW WHAT TO THINK ABOUT THIS BUT IT IS MJ'S HAIR..I THINK IF I HAD THE MONEY TO GET IT I WOULD.
Any little boys out there with a few of MJ's pubes in a jar at home should be taking notes.
.
Ill shave my pubes it will be worth a fortune….
IT'S MY BIRTHDAY AND I WANT MY ROBBIE!!!!!!
So disgusting. So creepy.
Re: LizardKinG – lmao….
OLD NEWS.
This is ridiculous. Enough already on MJ.
i call BULLSHIT!!!
And I am assuming this man has Yul Brynner's hair in his collection also…?
Re: RobPnMeShouldB – Happy Birthday!!
Re: LizardKinG – Beautiful!! I love it!!!
when will the whackness stopppppp
no one would buy it, if it were true, by the way-*****new website launched today* gossipcop * -chief legal analysts decided this was the only way to police the gossip sites, since sueing does not work and most sites just COPY FROM OTHER SITES. This was just on the Today show and gave the example of Katie Holmes 'just escaped explosion' -she was not even on the set-for hours. again the site is gossipcop
gossipcop.com a new site launched to police sites that just copy and paste stories without researching them
making money off the dead man . ppl suck . and who would freaking kepp his hair from freaking 1984 ? wtf
im a fan of his but I definately WOULDNT buy his hair . thats creepy
Wow, that's weird. It would be nice if they gave those diamonds to Mike's children isntead of being all weird and wrong about it.
Re: MinaDiva – hi 5 I agree !
er, um, LifeGems makes gems out of dead people ~ talk about the "Family jewels."
-
And here's pathetic - I did (honest) look into it - I'd much rather end up a pair of diamond earrings than in some grave. BUT, cost is very high for anything decent.
-
How it works - anything carbon-based (Humans, plants, etc.A) can be pressurized into a diamond. They'd have to add a lot of other stuff to a few strands of hair to get anything, but that's how it works
Now that I admitted I was interested - am I honestly the only one who'd rather spend eternity as a gorgeous diamond necklace in a cushy jewelery box as opposed to bones in a casket?
-
ah, so I'm weird. Just seemed a little bit nice that a casket underground.
how f uped do you have to be to do this. everyone stop saying it isn't true cause it is. it's all over fox news
Wow, Perez, seriously, this news is like a week old or something………
this is so stupid. enough with the made-up stories
okay this is just disgusting…who would want diamonds made out of hair follicles…i understand its the "King of Pop" and he is a legend and everything! I personal like his music, but thats besides the point…who wants diamonds made outta MJ hair!!! really, and btw, i wish this whole MJ ordeal would just be done and over with…he died over a month ago and i dont think hes been buried yet!!!! That is ridiculous!!
RIP Michael. Miss you and your talent.
that is awesome
…hmmm. Is he the freak that fired the sparklers at Michael in the first place? Nothing would surprise me anymore.
heard
bout diz yearz ago…
thatz how I'm going out
necklace, bracelet, earringz..
diamond ring…whooohooooooooooooo
bezt idea…
He was accused four times of raping little boys right?
Oh my, how greedy can people be!! I want to know what happened to the Armani Jacket.
OMFG,I'D SO DIE FOR THOSE DIAMONDS!!!!
MJ NEVER, AND I REPEAT NEVER RAPED ANYONE. those of ue fucktards who still insist that he did are losers in denial and jealous idiots because they know they will not EVER come close to getting half of the love michael has received.
Re: tick_tock_tick_tock – first of he got ACCUSED 2 . where'd 4 come from ? you read and believe all the tabloids im assuming huh ?
Re: tick_tock_tick_tock – Wrong! He was accused in 1993 which was settled out of court and then again in 2003 which went to trial but he was acquitted on all counts of child molestation. Michael was innocent!! he was a victim of extortion attempts both times.
**********RIP MICHAEL JACKSON************
Re: kelli94 – He wasn't accused by tabloids. He was accused by young children and a court of law.
Re: tick_tock_tick_tock – i know that . but im saying where'd you get he was accused 4 times from ? you mustve read something . them little boys only wanted his money
What??? This is so sick! Anything for a buck,huh?!
Re: Canadiana717 – You're just mean! Michael was INNOCENT!
Re: kelli94 – Hi 5! I
Umm…EW!! The poor guy is already dead! Can't we just leave him alone in peace! And leave his hair alone too!
Re: tick_tock_tick_tock – Accused but FOUND INNOCENT!
Re: dzeeymarie – THANK YOU! I agree 100%!
Re: DebDebs – ^5! Exactly!
wow… well that's freaky and unteresting and kinda cool at the same time
this picture is cute
i think everybody should let the man alone he's already dead!!!!! let him rest in peace!!!!
Diamonds are made of Carbon so it's pretty easy… if you take some graphite and compress a lot it you get diamonds: the only difference between them is the crystal structure
Re: LizardKinG – Now that was funny! LMAO!
Re: LizardKinG – I meant that in a good way!
this gives blood diamonds a whole new meaning!!!!
Freaky INDEED!
Woot Woot,Money Making Michael everywhere he goes.
He's a legend even in the materialistic world..diamonds are forever!
Haha
This is great news for the Perezcious as his hair has been falling out in clumps of late and of course - diamonds ARE a girl's best friend!
I swear, people will do anything for money (Michael said this himself, if you haven't heard, go look up his song "Money"). If this is the truth, for that man to even think to pick up Michael's hair and put it in his pocket, and still be holding on to it over 20 yrs. later is crazy. Just another person trying to capatalize on Michael's name. No one was talking about Michael's Pepsi accident 2 months ago….
BARF! I HATE HAIR!
Wrong. Just so . . . wrong.
Re: keyday02 – Is this your real pic? "Cause if you weren't leaning back you'd be pretty handsome and you have a gr8 (what looks like) tailored suit. Just thought you should know.
If this is a pic of a famous person I freely admitt I am a dumbass, so there's no need to tell me so.
A "celebrity hair collector". This guy should be locked up forever.
fair exchange. your hair for my armani. then im gonna turn into diamonds.
Re: Canadiana717 – HAHAHAHAHAHA TOO FUNNY!!
Retarded
Re: dzeeymarie – Rape?? Maybe not..diddled boys??? ..hehe yes…
pass
wasn't the 'original owner of the hair', MJ?! what a bizarre story. celeb hair collector = creep
they cant let him rest in peace!!!
crazy money freaks! in the usa it seems that ppl will try to squeeze money out of anything! and i mean anything! even if it was disrespectful and immorale.
shame.
Really? hahahahaha. wow. I LOVE MICHAEL. I want a diamond.
"We had no clue that this was humanly possible, but apparently diamonds can be created from individual hair strands by using the owner's DNA."
Are you seriously that clueless? Sure you can make diamonds out of anything carbon-based by using sufficient pressure, but it has absolutely nothing to do with DNA. Diamonds have a crystal-structure.
And even if what you mean is that they'd grow hair that would have the same DNA as Michael's (good luck with that), the result wouldn't have any trace of his DNA once processed. It'd be just made of carbon that never had anything to do with him.
That just isn't right
Technologically possible=YES
Morally= HELL NO !!!
