Russell Crowe Is Having A ‘Divorce Auction’ With Lots Of Movie Mementos
>Crowe is selling more than 200 items in a Sotheby’s auction, with the pieces to go under the hammer on April 7 in Sydney ― his wedding anniversary and his 54th birthday.
>The collection, titled “The Art of Divorce,” is also available for viewing as a public exhibition before the auction.
>“Just as we collaborate on the upbringing of our kids, it’s easy for us to work together on something like this. I think she feels the same way I do in regards to just moving on things that help create space for the future.”
I'll never understand why rich people collect dozen, sometimes hundreds of fairly obscure items. Like I get collecting more traditional 'collectible' objects; rocks, art, models, awards, archaeological items etc.
But why would you have 30+ watches? Or 15+ guitars? 10+ sports team shirts? If I had large amounts of money I admit I'd buy some fairly stupid stuff, and I'd probably collect a lot of things as I already do. But not 20 gloves or 30 cricket bats... (Crowe seems really, really into cricket btw).
Also, keeping 2 fucking life sized horse props and a roman chariot? Really?
