The 10 most bizarre Valentine's gifts that celebs gave each other
Like almost everything, it's bigger (and better?) in America. Christmas, Easter, but also Valentine's Day is a good example of that. Because if you have a relationship there and your partner shows up with a flower on February 14th? That just can't happen, right? Especially not in Hollywood. That's immediately grounds for divorce. No, if you really love each other, you have to show it through the most expensive, most extravagant gifts. Romantic? Not so much, if you ask me. I think it's a waste of money. But yes, I don't exactly have this kind of money sitting in my account either...
The most bizarre Valentine's gifts among celebrities:
1. David Beckham and Victoria Beckham
Nothing says I love you more than jewellery. But you can also go overboard. For Valentine's Day, Victoria received a necklace from Bulgari. Just a little chain. That cost eight million. Yes, you read that right: MILLION.
2. Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner
In 2019, the rapper gave his girlfriend a special gift that would irritate me more than make me happy. He filled her entire house with red roses, which were laid out everywhere in the shape of hearts. And along the sides of the hallways were candles. They led to a gigantic neon heart. Nice idea, but who is going to clean all this up?
3. Katy Perry and Russell Brand
They weren't together for long, but they did celebrate Valentine's Day — AND HOW. Russell Brand was surprised with a car. A Bentley. Worth $341,000. Holy shitballs.
4. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West
I'm not surprised at all that this couple – back in happier times - pulls out all the stops on a day like Valentine's Day. Or rather, especially their credit card from their wallet. He gave a Cartier bracelet, the Panthere De Cartier Cuff worth $76,000.
5. Courteney Cox and David Arquette
Now divorced, but when they were still together, David received a gift on February 14th that I honestly wouldn't know what to do with. An antique carousel horse. Okeee. Costs you $45,000, but then you have something.
6. Beyoncé and Jay-Z
A bit of a waste of money too, because it seems to me that these two stars constantly get the latest iPhone. But that didn't stop Jay-Z from giving his Queen B a platinum mobile phone worth $24,000.
7. Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber
What I said about ‘you can't get away with just a flower’ doesn't always apply. Justin had choice stress at the florist and decided to just buy all the flowers. ALL OF THEM. Cost him around $2000.
8. Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon
Apparently, more people find cars romantic, because the singer also received one: a Rolls-Royce worth $400,000. With all the new technical gadgets, of course, like heated windows.
9. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
Apparently, Brad really loves olives. Otherwise, this was a really bad purchase; he received an olive tree worth $18,500 from his then-wife.
10. One more time Katy Perry and Russell Brand
What was going through Katy's mind, with these bizarre Valentine's gifts? She gave her then-lover... A trip to space. With Virgin Galactic. Costs $200,000, but then you can say she loves him to the moon and back.
Do you also notice that most couples have broken up? As Jenny from the Block said: love don’t cost a thing. That turns out to be true, in the end.
