Michael Jackson’s Glove Sells At Auction & Raises $5 Million

Julien's Auctions had the king of auctions featuring items from the king of pop, Micheal Jackson. A world-wide bidding frenzy took place by museums, collectors and fans alike, including Lady GaGa, whom herself bought up 55 items in the auction. After a full day of bidding, more then $5 million was raised, with a portion of the proceeds to benefit 2 charities, those being Nathan Adelson Hospice in Las Vegas and Guide Dogs of America.

Some key items that really raked in the dough include Michael Jackson's Bad Tour jacket, which got a whopping $240,000! Also, a white glove (pictured above) that belonged to the king of pop pulled in $192,000!
