Scarlett Johansson's Sneezy Gift
USA Harvest must be very glad that superstar Scarlett Johansson did not take a flu shot as they got $5,300 from a tissue used by her.
Last week, during a visit to The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the actress revealed that she caught a cold from Samuel L. Jackson while working on her latest movie, The Spirit. After a couple of jokes and taking care of a runny nose with a tissue, Johansson decided to auction the hankie on eBay.
The bidding started at $0.99 and reached $5,300 before the closing time of the auction last night. EBay revealed that 83 people attempted to own the peculiar Christmas treat.
The earnings from the expensive tissue, which also features a smear of lipstick from the celebrity as well as her autograph, will benefit USA Harvest, an organization that distributes food restaurants don't sell to people in need.
