Beyonce's $100,000 Gold Leggings

Beyonce wore these pricey leggings, covered in real gold, at the 2007 BET awards. They were designed by Balenciaga. I hope she got to wear them again, like to yoga or something.

Bono's $1700 Plane Ticket For His Hat To Sit In

Bono is supposed to be a humanitarian who wants all the inequality and injustice in the world to be wiped out; at least that’s what he tells the media from time to time and claims in his songs. So what would such a humanitarian do if he went on vacation and accidentally left his favorite hat at home? He’d spend a ridiculous $1,700 to have it delivered by airplane.

Nicolas Cage's $276,000 Dinosaur Skull

The eccentric actor is somewhat infamous for his wild purchases, but one of the wildest was the skull of a Tyrannosaurus Bataar. He beat out Leonardo DiCaprio for the fossil, but unfortunately, there's been some question as to its authenticity since the sale went through.

Kanye's Pricey Teeth

While on the Ellen show, Kanye told the talk show host that he'd had gold and diamond tooth implants installed instead of his front bottom teeth. We wonder why, but we guess its just because it's what rock stars do.

Angelina Jolie's $1 Million Helicopter

The Oscar-winning actress bought her ex-husband Brad Pitt a helicopter. Just a normal present, right?

Daniel Radcliffe's $17,000 Mattress

The Harry Potter star indulged in a mattress that costs as much as a car...but to be fair, you do have to sleep on it every night. Just a small price for comfort.

Soulja Boy's $250,000 Diamond-encrusted Remote Control Car Necklace

The rapper got a necklace featuring a diamond-covered model Lamborghini as a present from his jeweler. So he didn't actually drop all that cash on it - but imagine how much he'd already spent to get such an expensive gift!

Drake's $50,000 Strip Club Visit

The rapper visited a strip club in North Carolina and "made it rain" to the tune of 50 grand!!

Celine Dion's $1 Million Humidifier

Dion's Las Vegas home is, obviously, quite dry, which can wreak havoc on one's singing voice. So the legend had a gold-and-crystal encrusted humidifier installed to ensure she doesn't lose her signature belt. Honestly, we would expect nothing less.

Michael Vick's $85,000 Fish Pond

The disgraced former NFL player bought a custom fish pond for his house that cost more than some people's actual houses.

Mike Tyson – $280,000 Tigers

Tyson has made himself a lot of money in his life, but boy oh boy, has he also wasted a great deal of it. Tyson’s most prominent example may be the fact that he spent $140,000 on two white Bengal tigers…and then needed to spend another $140,000 to hire a trainer for them

Suri Cruise's $850 Purse

While you could argue that Suri didn't buy this, it's still fairly alarming that her mom thought a three-year-old needed a Ferragamo purse. Just give the kid a tote bag and let her use her imagination to pretend it's a Ferragamo purse. Outrageous!

Akon's Multi-Million-Dollar Diamond Mine

The rapper bought an actual diamond mine in South Africa, and while the exact cost of the purchase was never publicized...it was probably A LOT. It's a dang diamond mine!

Jay Z’s 75 Bottles Of Armand De Brignac ($250,000)

Everyone understands what it means to pop a bottle of champagne, it’s a sign of celebration, but what occasion could warrant the popping of 75 bottles of champagne? Not just any champagne, but the “Armand De Brignac” which connoisseurs refer to as the “Ace of Spades” it is practically the Bugatti of champagnes and the 75 bottles cost $250,000

Kim Basinger's $20 Million Town

The 80s icon bought a Georgia town, Braselton, in 1988, hoping to turn it into a tourist attraction. Her plan didn't work, though, and she filed for bankruptcy five years later, selling the town for a measly $1 million.

Donald Trump's $100 Million Plane

Before he was able to ride around on Air Force One, President Trump owned a Boeing 757 jet that can seat up to 230 people, and features a 52-inch TV inside. Supposedly, everything that can be gold-plated inside the plane is.

The fashion designer and former Spice Girl had her iPhone covered in 24k gold. Unfortunately, it's now completely obsolete!  

Rihanna's $1 million Yearly Haircare Bill

The pop star has seemingly ever-changing hairstyles, all of which look stunning, so it's no surprise that she spends a pretty penny on her coif each year.

Jay-Z's $250,000 Bottles of Bubbly

The exclusive brand Ace of Spades costs a cool quarter-mil a bottle, and Mr. Beyonce actually bought a few bottles! Hope the celebration is REALLY fun!

Steven Spielberg's $60,000 Sled

To be fair, the sled was THE SLED from Orson Welles' cinematic masterpiece Citizen Kane, so when acclaimed director Spielberg bought it in 1982, we really shouldn't have been surprised. Directors love to idolize other directors.

When Cruise's ex-wife Katie Holmes was pregnant with Suri, the action star actually bought a sonogram machine to just, like, have in their house. She was their only child, so once she was born, what did he do with it? I hope he donated it to a low-cost clinic.

Fancy art is notoriously expensive, but learning that do-gooder Pitt has a painting by Neo Rauch that cost almost a cool million made us look at him in a different way.

In 2004, the former NBA star put some of his basketball money into fast food - and he's apparently doing okay at it, since he still has them today!

Katy Perry's $200,000 Space Ticket
