A haircut for more than £15,000 for King of Brunei

There are some people like me who can afford to pay just a few bucks to get a haircut but on the other end there are some people who don’t mind spending loads of cash to get a simple haircut done.

Recently the Sultan of Brunei spent a whopping £15,000 to get a haircut done and flew his favorite barber all the way from London to Brunei for this purpose. Ken Modestu, the barber was escorted in a private luxury cabin worth £11,000 so that he didn’t contract swine flu from other passengers.

Ken has been the barber for the King of Brunei for the past sixteen years and is given luxury accommodation and food each time he comes for a haircut of the King which is usually every three to four weeks. For his services the king pays him a thick envelope of cash for every visit and its absolute luxury given that Ken gets paid £30 for each haircut he does.

Definitely it can be dubbed as the most luxurious haircut in the world!!

It was the death of fallen Michael Jackson which brought him back into limelight again and in order to cash on it a 1984 portrait by Andy Warhol of the late singer Michael Jackson is being put for auction at New York.

This portrait was commissioned by TIME Magazine as a mark of celebration for the record sales of Michael Jackson’s album Thriller. This 30 x 26 inches portrait of Michael Jackson will be auctioned off in New York with the starting bidding price at £500,000.
