What do you do when you're a 22-year-old billionaire? Buy a single Beanie Baby for $12,000, I guess. That's exactly what Kylie Jenner did recently, anyway. That's right. The Kylie Cosmetics founder dropped a cool 12 grand on a custom Beanie Baby last week. Why not, right?
Kylie picked up the ultra expensive toy at a charity art auction curated by Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin. The proceeds of her purchase reportedly went to LIFT Los Angeles and Inner-City Arts. The piece of Beanie Baby art was created by artist Dan Life. The reimagined plush toy is a bedazzled bear based on the discontinued Beanie Baby original Beanie Baby called Erin, which had green fur and shamrock etched on the front. Life's remixed version is instead "encrusted in green crystals and called “Erin (Beanie),” according to Page Six.
Though Kylie was just revealed as the mystery buyer of the toy by TMZ, Life actually shared a photo of himself with the reality star and the bear last week.
It's unclear what Kylie did with her latest purchase. Perhaps she gave it to her 1 year old daughter Stormi for Christmas?
