According to the Chicago Tribune, a Chicago company is planning to turn Jackson’s hair into diamonds.
Jackson’s hair caught on fire while filming a commercial for Pepsi in 1984.
Greg Herro, CEO of LifeGem, says his company has some of Jackson’s burned hair and they will heat the hair at 5,400 degrees and produce up to 10 half-carat diamonds.
The company obtained Jackson’s hair from Pepsi executives.
This is the same company that turned strands of Ludwig van Beethoven’s hair into diamonds.
As weird as this sounds, the company likely will make a huge profit from Jackson’s hair being turned into diamonds.
