Source: Robert Laberge / Getty LeBron James’ High School Car Is Going Up For Auction One lucky fan is going to obtain a piece of LeBron James history when the Lakers star’s high school Hummer heads to an auction next week. The basketball star’s 2003 Hummer H2 is set to hit the auction block next Monday with Goldin Auctions before finally being sold on Decemeber 8, according to reports from ESPN . When he was a senior in high school, LeBron’s mother, Gloria, gave him the car as a gift for his 18th birthday. At the time of the big purchase back in 2003, The New York Times reported that Gloria registered the car, then-valued at $50,000, in her name and paid for it by taking out a loan. The Ohio High School Athletic Association investigated the car’s purchase to make sure it was not given to James by an outsider, which would have caused him to lose his amateur status by accepting “payment”. The Ohio native’s taste for the finer things was apparent even back then. James’ customized SUV features a chrome grille, 28-inch chrome rims, TVs, a JBL sound system and even a Playstation 2. This actually isn’t the first time that LeBron’s car has been up for auction before. In 2013, James’s Hummer went up for sale on eBay for $64,800 and was eventually purchased for an undisclosed amount. It has been on display at the Greater Cleveland Auction ever since. According to ESPN, the car’s current Kelley Blue Book value is only around $18,000, not including the custom additions–but of course, that’s not taking into account whose car it is and just how much value that adds. President of Goldin Auctions, Ken Goldin, expects much more in return saying it’s “definitely a six-figure piece,” referring to the Hummer.

It’s official: Abby Lee Miller is no longer in the big house. But the former Dance Moms host is not yet living in her own house just yet, either. So… where is the irritating, self-aggrandizing, bullying reality star? According to TMZ sources, Miller has been moved from the Victorville, California prison in which she’s been forced to reside for months to the Residential Reentry Center in Long Beach. This is a halfway house. Such a facility will provide the ex-Lifetime star with a “safe, structured and supervised environment,” as described by the aforementioned website, where she’ll be given employment counseling, job placement and financial management assistance. This is, of course, ironic for multiple reasons. For starters, Miller was indicted in 2016 on 20 counts of fraud after prosecutors claim she hid $755,000 in income from the government. She was sentenced in May of 2017 to 366 days in federal prison. But Abby has made the most of this time, by which we mean she’s done the most she can do to remain relevant and ensure herself of a big payout upon her release. In January, Miller shared the above photo of herself in jail, releasing a statement at the time that proved she has learned basically nothing from her mistakes. “Sometimes in life you make mistakes. I trusted the wrong people and didn’t pay any attention to things I should of,” said Miller at the time , blaming her advisors for her bankruptcy fraud conviction. She went on to pat herself on the back, while simultaneously shooting down chatter that she’s been complaining and whining about life behind bars: “My world flipped upside down when I had to enter prison. I did so with grace, the stories you read about me been a princess are untrue. “I have made friends with both inmates and staff, I’ve tried to better myself, participated in anything offered to me and I am a better person for this experience.” Miller rose to fame years ago as the lead choreographer on Dance Moms. She often yelled at her kids and got into fights with their parents, earning a reputation as someone who is tough-minded, stubborn and, some have said, verbally abusive. She then quit Dance Moms in a lengthy Instagram post that slammed producers for the tiny budget she had allegedly been given, saying many times over that she had been treated unfairly. Someone really needs to buy Miller a violin she can just play for herself at all times. Has anyone ever thrown herself so many pity parties? The thing is, it’s almost certain that Miller will earn some kind of huge payday once she’s actually a fully free woman. We have no doubt she’ll earn a pretty penny for some kind of exclusive interview with a tabloid or a news magazine, while probably even being named the star of some reality show. Remember Teresa Giudice? She went to jail for a similar financial crime, came out and was instantly made the highest-paid woman on The Real Housewives of New Jersey . This is just the world in which we live. Sad. View Slideshow: 27 Scandals That Rocked Reality TV
Jasmin is a 26-year-old woman who lives in London. In the video that you can see below, she announced that she is auctioning off her virginity to the highest bidder — because she is tired of waiting for the right man and, hey, who couldn't use some extra money? Well, she's apparently accepted a final bid … for around $1.5 million dollars. Virginity isn't a biological state — it's a social construct. But that doesn't mean that it isn't real . Like … money is also a social construct. Either can be traded away to someone who values it. And Jasmin knows that there are absolutely men out there who value the idea of virginity … and would jump at the chance to be the one to “take” it from a beautiful woman. So she has offered her first time up for auction with hopes of raising the funds to secure her future and perhaps travel the world. Jasmin us using a German company to facilitate the auction. “'I would like to sell my virginity on Cinderella Escorts because I want to travel the world and visit America and various other places.” She has real ambitions. “My future plans include starting my own business and this is something that requires money. Doing this will allow me to move forward with my life. I will be able to have a future free of financial worries.” She has been saving herself for marriage, but become disillusioned with that idea. “Traditional views regarding virginity are so outdated. I believe that its my choice what I do with my body and I am sick and tired of waiting for the right person to come along.” This is certainly one way to attain financial independence. “After 26 years I still haven’t found him so I decided a positive alternative would be selling my virginity.” She tells prospective buyers that her breasts are real. She goes on to describe her interest in activities like traveling, reading, and movies. Jasmin tells The Sun that: “I really respect ladies who are traditional and want to wait for sex after marriage. I was one of them. I really wanted to wait for the right one. But I don't want to wait any longer.” She's reminding us all that one can be forthright about sexuality without condemning others who are more reserved about sex. “So I chose another way which will make me happy. I am sure about my decision.” Good for her. The Daily Mail reports that Jasmin has received a final offer of 1.2 million euros, which translates to about $1.5 million. The tryst is planned for April and will take place in a hotel room. The man representing Jasmin's interests on behalf of Cinderella Escorts says that Jasmin can of course back out of the arrangement at any time, and that he will personally see to her safety. Jasmin dined with top bidders before she decided to accept. Honestly, she sounds like a real inspiration. Though we should mention, of course, that others have auctioned their virginities in the past. She made headlines last year with her declaration that she was putting her virginity up for auction like this. Some may try to sex-shame her (many have, actually), but people sell their labor every day of the week. Watch the video that she made in order to pitch this offer to the world. When she first made it, do you think that she imagined that it could make her a millionaire?
The Black Heritage Auction Will Feature Relics From African-American History An auction that features all African-American memorabilia is headed to New York City next month. The Black Heritage Auction April 7 is your chance to own your very own piece of black history from Colonial times to the present day. The event will be the first of its kind so specifically showcase African-American collectibles, according to Paxton Baker, the event’s producer. “Most black items are added to an auction as an afterthought,” Baker told BOSSIP. “We wanted to curate something that was designed for people who had an interest in black culture.” Hosted by rapper Doug E. Fresh, the auction will feature several hundred artifacts from the African-American experience. Treasures like Tupac Shakur’s prison ID card, Muhammad Ali’s gloves and an original picture of famed abolitionist Frederick Douglass will all go to the auction block. “We think we’ve created one of the most amazing auctions,” Baker said, adding that he wanted to create the auction to emphasize “the importance of collecting our own items for our own heritage and our own race and our own family.” Also for sale will be handwritten notes from the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., James Brown’s microphone, the 1869 edition of “Scenes In The Life of Harriet Tubman,” an 1841 contract that freed an enslaved African-American from bondage and an 1889 edition of “The Freeman,” America’s first black newspaper. But Baker said the auction would be centered around Tupac, who is set to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame the same day. Items for sale include his 1991 recording contract, his handwritten lyrics to the song “I Ain’t Mad At Cha,” the Dolce & Gabbana shirt he wore for “2 Of Americaz Most Wanted” music video with Snoop Dogg and the bullet-damaged gold medallion he wore the night he was murdered. The Black Heritage Auction auction will be held April 7. For more information visit the auction’s website.
Earlier today we reported that adult film company Vivid is promising new Kim Kardashian sex tape footage to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the video’s release. Of course, the now-infamous clip didn’t just introduce Kim to the mainstream, it also made an overnight star out of her ambitious “momager,” Kris Jenner. Despite what a surprising number of fans were hoping for, the lost footage does not show Ray J peeing on Kim , but this is 2017, so you still won’t be getting out of this day without a Kardashian-related pee story: According to Radar Online, Kris Jenner is having difficulty, um … holding her water. The Kardashians aren’t huge on privacy, so it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that the family’s reality shows have mined Kris’ weakening bladder for comedic purposes. But it seems the problem may be more serious than Kris and company are letting on: “Kris had more ‘accidents’ recently than ever before and has to be extremely difficult of what she eats and drinks before going to public events,” a source close to the Kardashians tells Radar. The insider (who is clearly a person Kris should stop sharing her secrets with) adds that the “pee-dicament” (Radar’s word, not ours) has been making creating difficulties in Kris’ family life. Particularly with regard to her relationship with her grandkids: “She’s been banned from jumping on their trampoline and swimming with them” says the source. We learned this week that the aftermath of Kim’s Paris robbery will be featured on Keeping Up With the Kardashians, but hopefully the family draws the privacy line somewhere. But they’ve already demonstrated that if a medical problem might potentially provide a ratings boost, it’s fair game. When Lamar Odom overdosed and wound up in a coma last year, the show captured his ensuing recovery, despite initial reports that the hospital drama would remain off-limits. Obviously, this situation isn’t quite as severe, and we’re sure it would be portrayed differently, but there’s something unseemly about getting laughs from a 61-year-old woman’s embarrassing medical issue. Then again, this is Kris Jenner we’re talking about. If E! offered her a check to do a two-hour special about her next colonoscopy, she’d be fasting before they got the contract drawn up.

It's not exactly a secret that Rob Kardashian has had a troubled relationship with Blac Chyna. In recent years, he's also not been the most attentive brother or uncle or son. Really, let's just go ahead and say that if someone's had any kind of personal relationship with Rob, they probably haven't had the greatest time for these past couple years. And honestly, it's easy to see why in this new clip from the upcoming season finale of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. In this clip, Kim, Kourtney, and Khloe all sit down to discuss the upcoming baby shower the family put together for Rob and Chyna. If you'll remember, the shower didn't go as planned. Rob didn't show up because he was upset the family didn't invite Chyna. They didn't invite her because they were broken up at the time, but that didn't matter to Rob. He was so upset that he made the completely reasonable, not at all cruel choice of tweeting out Kylie Jenner's phone number . And now, through the magic of television, we're learning exactly why Rob was so upset. It's absolutely as ridiculous as you'd imagine. Check out what Rob's issue is, as well as the Kardashian's sisters attempt to calm his wild, wild heart, in the video below:
Jimmy Fallon is not exactly known for hard-hitting interviews. See Trump, Donald . But the tables were turned a bit on The Tonight Show host this week when Nicole Kidman sat down for a follow-up interview to her memorable Q&A from January of last year. In that initial appearance, Kidman needled Fallon about being a terrible date, thinking back to a very long time ago in which they actually went out, but Fallon barely talked and even put on a video game at one point. “After about an hour and a half, I thought, ‘He has no interest, this is so embarrassing and then I was like, ‘Maybe he’s gay,'” Kidman said at the time. Fast forward nearly two years later to Thursday evening and Kidman only half-joked on set that she was hesitant to return as a guest after the way the previous interview had gone. She then reminded the host that their date wasn’t even the only time he blew her off. “You had a chance to ask for my number a second time and you didn’t,” she said. Wait… what? Fallon said he didn't recall this situation. So Kidman went on to set the scene at David Fincher's house back in the day, explaining who else was there and how she thought Fallon would ask for her number again and… .. nope, nothing. Fallon was clueless. “That’s even more offensive that you don’t remember,” the Oscar winner said. “You’re kidding, aren’t you? Do not pretend!” Watch their full, very awkward and very funny exchange below:
