The gambling website OnlineGamblingPal.com forked over $10,871 for some of deceased pop icon Michael Jackson’s hair, and have plans to use it in very unique, very creepy way.
To make a roulette ball.
The site won the hair via online auction, and there’s no way of telling whether the hair came from MJ’s head or another part of his body. Jackson’s locks were collected from the Carlyle hotel in New York after the King of Pop had stayed there while attending a charity event, and the gambling site decided that the best way to use the hair, and honor Jackson, who died in 2009, was to make it into a roulette ball that ” will be made to the highest professional standards, ensuring it will be eligible for use at any licensed casino’s roulette table.”
So there’s that.
Still, if it seems like it’s in poor taste to make a roulette ball out of a dead singer’s bit of hair, it pales in comparison to the groan inducing pun the website used to announce it’s plans for Jackson’s hair
Together, we can ensure Michael Jackson continues to rock and ‘ROLL’ forever.
Terrible, just terrible.
