Most Expensive Hat

Chapeau d'Amour - The World's Most Expensive Hat

The most expensive hat in the world wants you dead.

Modeled by actress Alicia Witt at Christie’s in London, Chapeau d’Amour—the “hat of love”—was created by celebrity couture designer Louis Mariette. Made of woven platinum and covered in stunning diamonds, the hat was inspired by ivy and bluebells.

I’m not sure what inspired the antennae, but they look like they could be used to either feel the slightest vibrations in the air or deliver lethal venom to small animals.

Either way, the world’s most expensive hat is valued at $2.7 million. Unfortunately for hat collectors everywhere, Chapeau d’Amour is not for sale.

The longest limousine!!!

longest-limousine-in-the-world

The longest limousine built ever in the world is a limousine 100-ft long that was created by Jay Ohrberg of Burbank, California. This enormously long car is even in the Guinness Book of World Records now. This limousine rides on 26 tires spaced along the length of its body. It has 2 drivers’ cabins in the front and in the back as it’s really hard to drive such a vehicle. In order the limousine could turn and make turns around corners, its middle part is hinged to fold.

History is made as the tiny war drama overbalance "Avatar" and takes 6 awards including the first woman bes director


Hollywood's biggest night came down to "Hurt Locker" vs. "Avatar" with the indie war drama besting the 3D blockbuster. It was an evening that was short on surprises, but big on history with Kathryn Bigelow becoming the first female director to win an Oscar. Here's a look at the winners, losers, musical number, speeches and more from Sunday's ceremony.

Seven years after America's foray into an ill-fated war in Iraq, Hollywood heaped glory on a tiny, taut film that took audiences to the front lines of the grinding conflict.

"The Hurt Locker," a pitiless look at the soldiers diffusing bombs in Iraq, won six Oscars including Best Picture and Best Director at the 82nd Academy Awards on Sunday.

The triumphs made history for the Academy Awards: Kathryn Bigelow became the first woman to win the directing honor; and the film, taking a meager $21 million worldwide at the box office, became the lowest-grossing Best Picture winner (the previous low was "Annie Hall," which wound up grossing about $38 million).

The top Seven Soccer Studium


7. San Siro – Italy

San Siro Stadium

The San Siro stadium is located in Milan, Italy and has the capacity to seat over 85,000 guests. The stadium is home to both Internazionale and AC Milan, both of which are considered to be the biggest sports teams in existence today.

AC Milan Soccer Team

Watching a soccer game at San Siro is a spectacular experience, mostly because of the incredible Italian fans. They scream choreographed chants, wave humongous banners, and shoot off flares not just at the end of the game, but at the scoring of each goal. They’re some of the most enthusiastic sports fans in the world – hands down!

6. Ibrox Stadium – Scotland

IBROX Stadium

At the Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow, Scotland you’ll find the Glasgow Rangers Football Club. For the uninitiated: football, in Europe, is what we Americans call soccer. The stadium can hold up to 50,500 riled up fans at a time on game day.

Glasgow

The Glasgow Celtic are the biggest competitors of the Glasgow Rangers, but the fans and stadium just can’t compete. Rangers fans don’t just chant their support – they sing real songs with intelligible lyrics and music.

5. OlympiastadionGermany

Munich Olympiastadion

The Olympiastadion in Munich, Germany was originally built in 1972 in order to host the Olympic Games. It later became the site of several major soccer events and also served as the backdrop for a number of stellar concert events.

Munich Olympiastadion

Today the stadium is the home of the Hertha BSC soccer team. The DFB-Pokal and Frauen DFB Pokal are hosted there each year, although the 2010 games will be moved to a different location as part of an experiment that involves hosting these events in different cities. The UEFA Champions League Final will be held there in 2011.

4. The Maracana, Brazil

The Maracana can be found in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. The stadium, with a seating capacity of up to 40,000, is well known for its historic significance regarding the game of soccer.

Vasco de Gama Soccer Club

The stadium is home home to the Rio De Janiero’s Vasco de Gama soccer club. This club is known for being the first to sign African players to their teams back in the 1920’s, bridging cultural and color barriers that were until then played a huge part in the formation of soccer teams around the world.

3. La Bombonera, Argentina

Boca Juniors

Tread carefully through the Boca neighborhood in Buenos Aires, Argentina and you’ll stumble upon La Bombonera. Home to the soccer team known as the Boca Juniors, the stadium certainly isn’t one of the largest or most beautiful in the world, but it’s the fans that make the experience special.

La Bomberona

Forget boxes, large rolling projector screens, or any of the fabulous amenities you’d find in a standard stadium. Soccer fans in Buenos Aires are there for two things – the love of the game and to see what type of celebration Martin Palermo will throw on the field when he scores his next goal.

2. Stamford Bridge, England

The Stamford Bridge stadium is moderate, with a seating capacity of approximately 42,000, but what they lack in size compared to other stadiums is made up in spirit by the exciting Chelsea Football Club. The stadium was built in 1904 and has been likened to Fenway Park, only for soccer instead of baseball.

Stamford Bridge

Fans of the Chelsea Football Club in London, England often wonder whether or not the players are on the field to show off or to win games. The fans love the thrill of a live game, though, so the intent of the team doesn’t really seem to matter.

1. Nou Camp, Spain

Head towards Barcelona, Spain if you want to see true soccer rivals duke it out on the field. The Nou Camp stadium is located in Barcelona and is the home to FC Barcelona.

Nou Camp

FC Barcelona and their largest rival, Real Madrid, tear up the field at least once per season, and it’s a game worth attending, even if you can’t make it to any others. FC Barcelona is one of the most successful soccer teams in the world (financially) and Nou Camp is the largest stadium in Europe. With 118,000 seats available, it’s not too difficult to get tickets to a game if you plan in advance.

The Most Expensive pen

Mystery Masterpiece PenThe Limited Edition Mystery Masterpiece, a joint creation between Mont blanc and Van Cleef & Arpels, is the most expensive writing pen ever created. Can you imagine, it costs $730,000! This amazing pen is truly a masterpiece of the jeweler's art. Each pen has 840 diamonds and more than 20 carats of gemstones set in a Van Cleef & Arpels patented "Mystery Setting" that conceals the stone settings. A groove is made on the culet, the bottom facet of the stone, which is then slid onto the threads of the lattice design so that the stones can be held in place side by side without any visible support. There are three variations, set either with rubies, sapphires or emeralds, and accented by diamonds. The three variations of these marvelous pens are limited to three releases each for a total of nine. The unique work took over a year and a half to create by skilled artisans.
