We told you previously that ICON Janet Jackson was set to hold a 3-day public auction with Julien’s Auctions, and this weekend the highly-anticipated event went down and brought in MAJOR big bucks.
As previously reported, Janet put up over 1,000 of her personal items including childhood clothing and dolls, tour and concert memorabilia, and some very exclusive pieces including worn music video costumes, handwritten notes, diaries, and more.
The singer’s black “bubble” shirt from her and Michael Jackson’s iconic ‘Scream’ video made headlines over the weekend selling for $125,000 but it was the entire ‘Scream’ ensemble that brought the most money. The entire lot of her ‘Scream outfits brought in $270,000.
Nearly all the listed items sold way above pre-auction estimates including her Rhythm Nation tour jacket which sold for $81,250 (pre-auction estimate: $4,000-$6,000), her 1956 Chevrolet pickup truck hit a high bid of $112,000 ($70,000 estimate), and her 6x platinum plaque for ‘Rhythm Nation 1814’ sold for $30,000, originally estimated at an unbelievably low $800-$1200.
