A lock of Justin Bieber’s hair has sold at auction for a staggering $40,668 (\u00a327,112).<\/p>\n
\nThe pop superstar handed his hair to TV personality Ellen DeGeneres during an appearance on her show last month (Feb11) – days after famously changing his look – and told her to sell it for a charity of her choice.\n<\/p>\n
\n He stated, “I’m giving pieces of it (hair) to different people. We’re doing something special. We want you to donate it to whatever charity you want.”\n<\/p>\n
\n DeGeneres decided to sell it to raise funds for California animal rescue centre The Gentle Barn, and placed the hair on eBay.com, where it quickly became a hot item.\n<\/p>\n
\n Bidding reached $12,000 (\u00a38,000) on Tuesday (01Mar11) but shot up overnight. It is not known who placed the winning bid.\n<\/p>\n
\n Meanwhile, fans of Bieber’s famous mop-top hairstyle can take one final look at the ‘do’ that was thanks to late children’s author Theodor Geisel.\n<\/p>\n
\n As part of Read Across America Day (02Mar11), which coincides with the iconic writer’s birthday, Bieber appears in a new viral video reading from one of Giesel’s Dr. Seuss books, and encourags fans to do the same to mark the literary anniversary.\n<\/p>\n
\n The video was shot last month (Feb11) before Bieber chopped off his hair.<\/p>\n
