Seven Celebrities Who Bought The Strangest Things Ever

Seven Celebrities Who Bought The Strangest Things Ever

Being a rich celebrity comes with a lot of upsides. The most obvious one is that these celebs can pretty much buy whatever they want to without having to bother if they need it or not. 

And while this does lead to a life of little to no real stress, for these celebs, it can also lead to some weird decisions.

Below are seven celebrities who bought the strangest things ever.

1. Lady Gaga - She Bought A Ghost Detector

There's this story about Lady Gaga being terrified of a ghost named Ryan and going to such measures to ensure she's not being haunted.

One of the efforts she's taken to avoid having a ghost in her house is the purchase of a $47,000 ghost detector.

It should be noted that this merely identifies ghosts and does not remove them. We are still not sure how that benefits Lady Gaga.
 

2. Nicolas Cage - He Bought A Hunted Mansion

Nic Cage, another celebrity obsessed with ghosts, took the other approach. Instead of attempting to evade the ghosts, he just purchased a haunted house.

Unfortunately, he lost it over a decade ago due to foreclosure, but the actor was the proud owner of a haunted house in New Orleans for around three years.

 

3. Elton Joh n- He Bought Flowers Worth £293,000

You surely don't think flowers are all that strange, do you? Elton likes flowers so much that in a lawsuit against his former manager, it was revealed that back in the 1990s, Elton spent two days in a flower store and spent £293,000 on them.

That must have been the florist's whole career. LOL.
 

4. Mike Tyson- He Bought A Bengal Tiger

Mike Tyson is another of those superstars whose bizarre acquisitions simply keep piling up, but his Bengal tiger is always the oddest.

He didn't, however, obtain just one. Mike purchased two white Bengal tigers and spent a substantial chunk of money on a trainer for them, according to his bankruptcy documents.
 

5. Paris Hilton- She Bought A Dog House Worth $325,000

We understand Paris Hilton loves her dogs and has a lot of money but this is kind of wacky.

She got a dog house which was made to mimic her own house, including miniature designer furniture, and we guess that’s how you end up with a price tag that could get you an actual house.
 

6. Tom Cruise - He Bought A Sonogram Machine

Tom Cruise isn’t exactly the most normal person around but we all seem to respect him a great deal.

I mean, the man’s about 60 years old now and he still looks great and does his stunts.

Nonetheless, he is many cards short of a full deck.

When Katie Holmes became pregnant with Suri, he became overly cautious and purchased a real sonogram machine for his home. I doubt Tom Cruise is qualified to use it.

 

7. Kim Basinger- She Bought A Town

Whereas most of us struggle to save enough money to buy a single property, Kim Basinger had the brilliant notion during her peak celebrity to spend it all on buying the town of Braselton, Georgia.

She intended to develop it into a tourist destination, but it wasn't even four years later that Basinger sold the town for a fraction of what she spent for it.
