Just when you thought Michael Jackson stories were old news, when all those trying to make a quick buck out of MJ’s passing were finally quietening down, the New Scientist gives us the literally dazzling story of . . .
Jackson’s hair being turned into diamonds!
“Our plan is to give people an opportunity to own a diamond made from Michael Jackson’s DNA,” said Dean VandenBiesen, founder of LifeGem. “We are currently evaluating Jackson’s hair sample to determine how many diamonds can be created. This will be a limited collection and we anticipate great interest.”
