Records, nail polish, movie tickets, hair: it’s official, Justin Bieber can sell anything. A lock of his freshly-chopped tresses, which he’d gifted to Ellen DeGeneres in a signed box the day after his much-buzzed-about cut, was put to auction on eBay last week, and today, sold for a whopping $40,668. The entire sum will be donated to animal rescue organization The Gentle Barn Foundation, per DeGeneres, and the winning bidder will get to meet the teen superstar the next time he appears on The Ellen Show. Bieber and DeGeneres shared a few silly Tweets leading up to his talk show appearance last week, with the host asking the singer to bring her a “surprise” when he visited. After receiving Bieber’s hair, DeGeneres immediately put it on eBay, and within an hour the bid was already up to $10,000. No word on who Wednesday’s winning bidder was just yet, but no doubt that today there’s one less lonely girl out there. –Kate Hogan

I’m glad it was for a good cause. :) Many people hate on Bieber yet he donates to charity, visits children’s hospitals, and has a wonderful family that encourages him to do these things and to pray to God.
Much respect to ya,

I don’t particularly like Justin as a singer but he is an amazing person.
I was reading about him a while back and besides doing this for charity, he meets with a make-a-wish foundation kid during every concert. That is very cool in my book.

OMG,Why would anyone pay for some hair. And if they just want to donate the money why not donate on something else. Theres alot of little kids that need homes,cloths, food.
