The following italicized article is from www.accesshollywood.com:Looking for a good way to “Break the Ice” with Britney Spears?
How about telling her you own some of her stuff.
Personal clothing once worn by Brit are just a few of the items going up for bid in the Gotta Have It! online Rock & Roll Pop Art Auction.
Among the items is a T-shirt worn by the pop star long before two marriages, two kids and a divorce, back when she was a cast member on the “New Mickey Mouse Club.”
The shirt, which Brit had given to her grandmother, is also signed by her former “MMC” co-stars, including Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera and Keri Russell.
“Something like that has never come up for auction before. We expect it to go for between $15,000 and $20,000,” Gotta Have It! owner Ed Kosinski told People.
The shirt is also signed by Brit, inscribed with the message: “I love you grandma,” according to E! Online’s Marc Malkin.
Other items up for bid from Britney include outfits worn onstage during her “Drive Me Crazy” and “Oops, I Did It Again” tours, the orange coat and pants she donned for the 2000 Billboard Music Awards and even a blue and white Santa dress she wore for a holiday Pepsi ad that same year.
Proceeds from the sale of the Spears memorabilia, which was provided by Tri Star Sports and Entertainment Group on behalf of the singer, will go to a charity of Tri Star’s choosing, according to People.
But Britney isn’t the only celeb with some goodies up on the block.
More than 500 items will be auctioned off in the Gotta Have It! auction, including Madonna’s personal diary from 1985, stage costumes and hand-written lyrics from the Material Girl, an authentic Elvis Presley jumpsuit and a pair of denim jeans worn by Marilyn Monroe in the movie “River of No Return.”
The jeans had actually been given to Britney as a gift from designer Tommy Hilfiger – but now, they can be yours!
The Rock & Roll Pop Art Auction runs from July 21 – August 6.
