Kanye West's 'Famous' sculpture can be yours if you have $4 million
If you're still unsure what to do with that sixth guest room in your humble home, here's an idea! Kanye West is reportedly selling the sculpture from the "Famous" video for a steal of roughly $4 million.
Tim Blum, the co-owner of the gallery that hosted the "Famous" exhibit over the weekend, told The New York Times that Kanye plans to sell the work and estimated that multi-million dollar price tag, which includes bedding and batteries.

It’s one of the coolest pieces I’ve ever seen, which is kind of annoying because it’s Kanye West.”
Here are some likely scenarios regarding who might purchase the work of art:
Taylor Swift, who swiftly melts the whole thing, turning the sculpture into hundreds of candles with quaint smells like vanilla latte, freshly washed linen and the blood of her enemies.

Before the piece ends up in its forever home, Blum says the moving sculpture will be on display in at least one other location, possibly a museum, which is great news if you're on the fence about making a purchase.
