NEW YORK - Online casino Golden Palace has spilled $5,001 for Britney Spears’ alleged home pregnancy test.
“It’s hard to put a price on Britney Spears’ urine,” Golden Palace spokesman Drew Black told The Associated Press Wednesday.
Golden Palace says it purchased the test from Ottawa radio station Hot 89.9, which insists the test was retrieved from the trash outside Spears’ Los Angeles hotel room months ago. The station didn’t leak news of the test until Spears and husband Kevin Federline revealed her pregnancy to the public last month.
“We don’t know for certain, of course,” said Black. “Obviously, it’s her alleged pregnancy test. I wasn’t there when she took the test.”
Golden Palace saw some buzz potential in the baby-making analyzer.
“When we saw this particular item was up for grabs, we knew it was something we wanted to have to add to the collection of oddities we’ve amassed over the past several months,” said Black.
Other off-the-wall items owned by Golden Palace include a sandwich resembling the Virgin Mary, a Doritos chip that looks like the Pope’s hat and a haunted cane.
Black said Golden Palace is looking into going on tour with the out-of-the-ordinary objects.
Last month, the online casino paid $15,100 to a Connecticut woman to name her newborn GoldenPalace.com.
