Marilyn Monroe Hair's the Deal ... Own a Lock for $16.5k!!!
A 60-year-old clipping of Marilyn Monroe's hair is up for grabs, and as an added bonus ... it comes with a sexy glamour shot of the blonde bombshell.
The lock of hair -- approximately 35 strands worth -- is from the collection of Kenneth Battelle, who served as the icon's hairdresser from 1958 until her death in 1962.
Monroe's mane comes in a specially designed glass frame, along with a framed photo of her. It's all presented in a flat paper box with Battelle's customized calling card under the lid ... which he dated June 14, 1959.
We're told the hairdresser had several of these pieces featuring Marilyn's hair made as gifts for his closest friends.
This one in particular, though, can be yours -- if you got the dough. The "Some Like It Hot" star's hair is available at Moments In Time for $16,500 ... get it while it's hot.

Trevor Lawrence 'Has The World By The Balls' ... Says Charlie Whitehurst
It's Trevor Lawrence's world and we're all just living in it ... so says ex-Clemson star Charlie Whitehurst, who tells TMZ Sports he's completely blown away by the young QB.
Lawrence's skills (and hair) have been the talk of college football this season ... and now that he helped the Tigers take down Alabama for the title, Charlie says the dude's turning into a superstar.
"Obviously, he could brand himself right now and who knows what kind of money he could make if that was within the rules," Whitehurst says.
"The way he looks and the way he played, I mean ... 19 years old and he's got the world by the balls, to be honest with you. I think we're all envious of that a little bit."
We also asked him who has the better locks ... and you'll wanna hear how Clipboard Jesus breaks down the hair situation.

David Arquette Back in the Ring ... Loser Loses Hair
David Arquette is a glutton for punishment ... returning to the wrestling ring after a deathmatch that almost killed him.
Arquette took the mic at a news conference Friday night to hype his upcoming match with veteran pro wrestler Jocephus in a "hair match" for the National Wrestling Alliance. The stakes ... loser shaves his head.
NWA President and former Smashing Pumpkins frontman, Billy Corgan, kept the 2 men apart during the faceoff at the Pinnacle Family Entertainment Center in Clarksville, Tennessee.
Jocephus stormed the stage with a VHS copy of Arquette's 2000 pro wrestling movie “Ready to Rumble” ... mocking him as an actor and implying he had no business trying to measure up in the ring.
11/17/18
As we previously showed you, poor David was a bloody, mangled mess last November after getting smashed in the head with a light tube.
The Arquette/Jocephus hair match goes down tonight. At least this time around, the consequences for the 47-year-old Arquette will not be as grave, unless of course the clippers haven't been sharpened.

Danielle Bregoli Teeth Were Bhad, Babie ... So, I Dropped $40k to Fix 'Em!!!
Danielle Bregoli is putting her hard-earned money where her mouth is, because her first big investment in the New Year went toward a new and improved smile.
We're told Danielle didn't like the way her teeth looked -- mostly due to crowding on the bottom row -- so she threw down $40k on porcelain veneers.
Bhad Bhabie hit up renowned dentist Dr. Aamir Wahab in Bev Hills to get the procedure and, after a pair of 4-hour sessions, she's rocking a brand new look as of Thursday afternoon. Not that Danielle's ever been shy about mugging for cameras, but it's a good bet she'll be showing off her new smile every chance she gets.
Porcelain veneers are typically used to mask discolored or chipped teeth. In other words ... it's a fast track to a near-flawless smile. We're told Danielle's procedure included 8 top teeth and 8 more on the bottom.
Not a bad way to reward herself ... after becoming the new face of Snapchat.

Miss Africa 2018 Winner Miss Congo's on Fire ... No Seriously, Help!!!
And, the winner of Miss Africa 2018 is ... whoever saved her from major scalp injuries!!!
Miss Congo, Dorcas Kasinde, won the African beauty pageant hosted by the Cross River State Government Friday, but immediately after she was crowned ... her hair went up in flames.
It appears the people onstage waving around celebratory sparklers to honor Miss Congo were responsible for setting her hair ablaze, but it seems like they noticed right away ... and hopefully the fire did her no harm.
Kasinde reportedly beat out Nigeria’s Chiamaka Nnaemeka and Zambia’s Gladys Kayumba to take home the crown, and was awarded with $35k and a sport utility vehicle.
No word on the extent of her injuries.

Al Sharpton Wrestling Hair Rules Are Biased Against Black People
Al Sharpton says video of high school wrestler Andrew Johnson getting his dreadlocks cut before a match is "outrageous," and shows a tremendous bias against minorities in high school sports.
The Rev. ain't buying the argument that the ref was simply enforcing the rules -- and accuses Alan Maloney of having a "bias" against black people.
But, Sharpton also believes the hair rule itself it ridiculous -- saying, "I think that it clearly discriminates against people that have a certain cultural bend, and come from a certain identity and racial background."
Sharpton compares the situation to discrimination cases where black employees had been told to get rid of dreadlocks and cornrows to comply with workplace standards.
Still, Al says he commends Johnson for winning the match and rising above all of the B.S. that went down in the gym that day.

The Victoria's Secret Angel took a dip in the water and enjoyed the sunshine on a beach in Miami Saturday, and she's definitely the perfect model for her own new line of swimwear ... called Tropic of C.
We're not sure if her tiny bikini is considered red or orange or reddish-orange ... but we know it looks good.
Candice looks like she could easily go from the sand to the catwalk already -- pretty incredible since she gave birth to a son in June.
The baby boy was her second with fiance Hermann Nicoli. No signs of the fellas in these pics ... we assume Mom deserved a beach day.

Boosie Best Believe I Wanna Trademark The 'Boosie Fade!!!'

EXCLUSIVE

Boosie's giving barbershop talk a whole new meaning ... saying if Hollywood's gonna jack his hairstyle, they better cough up some dough.
The rapper appeared on Raquel Harper's show "Raq Rants" on BET and said he wanted to talk about an issue important to him -- his "Boosie fade." Boosie tells us he's got his lawyers working on how to trademark the style. No joke.
He's not going after your average Joe who sports the Boosie fade. His beef is with Hollywood studios making money off his back head when their stars sport his same hairstyle. He's adamant it's similar to, say, Hollywood using a Marvin Gaye song. Studio's gotta pay up.
BTW ... the Boosie fade's real. There are YouTube instructional videos with hundreds of thousands of views on how to nail the style. Maybe Boosie's on to something here.

Nicki Minaj Goes After Ex-Stylist ... You Actually Owe Me Money!!!
Nicki Minaj doesn't owe her former stylist a dime -- in fact, she paid him too much money and now she wants it back ... according to new legal docs.
Nicki's countersuing Maher Jridi, who was her stylist in 2017 and hit her with a lawsuit in October for allegedly not returning nearly $74k worth of fancy clothes. Minaj denies Jridi's allegations and is firing back some of her own, claiming she overpaid him $12,000 for stylist services and he kept the cash.
According to the docs ... Nicki has an email chain proving Jridi knew about the overpayment and agreed to return it, but never did. She's now countersuing him for the $12k plus legal fees.
Minaj is also asking the court to dismiss Jridi's original suit.
As we reported ... Maher's known for being the man behind Nicki's famous wardrobe during 2017's Paris Fashion Week.
We reached out to Maher ... he says what Nicki's claiming is false and the legal process will show that.

Tommy Hilfiger Respect to Ralph Lauren And My Models of the Year Are ...
Game recognizes game, which is why Tommy Hilfiger is declaring Ralph Lauren his MVD -- most valuable designer for 2018 -- but he also names his top models.
We got the fashion legend leaving Michael's in NYC, and with December almost here, we asked who's stood out the most in his industry this year. Ever-humble, he tried to say he wasn't the most qualified to answer. To that we say, poppycock!
Tommy relented and dropped RL's name for one particular reason. Then we moved on to who's tops, as far as models go. He gave us 2 names.
We already knew he was high on one of them, and the other ... well, not exactly a big surprise.
It's who he didn't mention that's likely to get the fashion biz buzzing.
