Air of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
Brad and Angelina's 'air' sold on eBay
A jar said to contain the air of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie has been sold for £293 on eBay.
The ordinary quart-sized jar was brought to the premiere to the couple's latest movie, Mr and Mrs Smith, in Westwood, California, where it was opened to capture the stars' air as they walked by before being sealed.
"This is another perfect example of pop culture phenomenon," said Richard Rowe, CEO of GoldenPalace.com, the online casino company which bought the jar.
"There is literally nothing in this jar except air, and it has made headlines all over the country and even overseas. The sheer weirdness and absurdity of this item has made it a marketing success."
Recently, the same company bought a positive pregnancy test said to have been discarded into a hotel bathroom bin by Britney Spears.

Shit attracts flies. At least you can breathe the air. Golden Palace is not stupid for having bought the item. It has given them an insane amount of publicity for next to zero money. Had a private person bought the jar, it would've been a different story.

I was thinking a pile of shit will be good for fertilizing my backyard :lol

I've been tempted to try and sell something just as stupid for a joke. This is probably going to put me over the top. Anyone hear about that woman who got GOLDEN PALACE atooed on her forehead for 10g's?
