Michael Jackson’s Hairs Will Now Be Diamond Michael Jackson |
A US company has unveiled a strange new plan to produce 10 sparkling diamonds from locks of late pop legend Michael Jackson's hair.
Executives at “LifeGem” have obtained a sample of the King Of Pop's tresses from a memorabilia collector, who owned some of the hair of Michael Jackson, when he burned off his scalp while filming a 1984 Pepsi commercial and now LifeGem founder Dean VandenBiesen plans to create a limited edition set of 10 diamonds using a laboratory process that takes carbon from hair and turns it into high-quality gems.
In 2007, VandenBiesen created three diamonds from locks of German composer Beethoven's hair, selling one of the stones for approximately $200,000.
