Michael Jackson's Hair to Become Diamonds
It's been 25 years since the infamous Pepsi commercial shoot in which Michael Jackson's hair accidentally caught on fire, but even though the charred locks of hair have been sitting away quietly for all these years, they've finally found their purpose: to be turned into diamonds.Chicago-based jeweler LifeGem, which specializes in creating diamonds from hair samples (from the likes of Beethoven and Marilyn Monroe), has announced plans to release a limited collection made from the King of Pop's hair.
"Our plan is to give people an opportunity to own a diamond made from Michael Jackson's DNA," said Dean VandenBiesen, founder of LifeGem, in a statement.
"We are currently evaluating the sample to determine how many diamonds can be created. This will be a limited collection and we anticipate great interest."
Memorial diamonds for MJ? We wonder about the price tag on these! The pop legend lives on in as many ways as we could possibly imagine.

I am absolutely apalled at this. It makes me sick, what about when he was alive? Did anyone really try to help him, regarding the accusation and the life that he had. Was he a super star yes, but to make money off of this, he is a person, not an object, let him rest in peace, and I know in my heart and soul that God will judge whoever is involved in this atrocious act.
Are Diamonds all you think about? It sure sounds like it hs to do with money. I feel sorry for all of you, especially on Judgement day!!!!
There are so mnany things that I read about especially in this entertainment industry, fashion, music, etc..., and I think you all better examine yourself who has such cold hearts, as I may not have much money, but I am richer than I could ever ask for, because I have an eternity to look forward to with my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. If I were you, who ever reads this and takes part ins such dispicable acts, I would ask God for forgiveness, and look into you soul and just think about the cold ness in your heart to even consider something like this. Also, how long has Jackson been deceased, not that long if I recall, and lithographs are being sold, now his hair into diamonds. All I can say is that not everyone goes along with this, but this entertainment industry thinks that houses, boats, cars, diamonds are the answer, but deep down, I wonder just how happy some of you really are??? Jesus is our only answer, he changed my life, and he is coming again soon.I would get my eternity straight. Read John 3:16. Prayer is much needed and I continually pray, as I see and hear the things that go on in this world. I think being charitable is wonderful, and I know there are maany that reach out and help, and God will honor that,then there are those who will do just about anything to see that green$!!!!!!! This is very sad!
