Britney
Spears Sells Belongings Online
11/29/06
Britney Spears is cleaning out her closets with an online auction of
memorabilia to raise money for the Britney Spears Foundation for children
in need.
As well as clothing and accessories, the pop star is also selling
homework she completed when she was a teenager as part of the 170-lot
auction.
One item on the block is a page from the Toxic singer's junior high
school notebook containing her handwritten book report on a translation of
Sophocles' Antigone.
The essay, which is estimated to go for between $500 and $700 when
auctioned at Christie's on 4 December (06), was composed in black
ballpoint pen on both sides of the page and comes with a yellow note card
decorated with the book's title.
The report received a respectable grade of 88 out of 100 points and on
the back of the page Spears' teacher wrote comments such as "Nice
cover" and "Watch out for spelling mistakes".
