Why 2k?
BONUS: Super dramatic YouTube video of this thing spinning on a lazy Susan for two and a half minutes. Better than Propofol!

The super dramatic YouTube video is the scariest thing I’ve seen in a while. And he said he didn’t endorse the occult.
November 4, 2010 at 4:39 pm
That is stunning.
November 4, 2010 at 4:39 pm
“Why 2k?” No, I believe the correct question is “Good lord, WHY?!”
November 4, 2010 at 4:41 pm
I have been rendered speechless.
November 4, 2010 at 4:42 pm
The scariest thing I’ve seen in a while? That was before I read the Joe Jonas Alchemy request. O_o
November 4, 2010 at 4:42 pm
Actually, the face looks a bit like David Duchovny. Is this an X-File?
November 4, 2010 at 4:44 pm
No glove, no love.
November 4, 2010 at 4:46 pm
That is the “Red Army” jacket circa late 80′s – before Dangerous but after Thriller… shouldn’t the crystals for his face be a darker color? they did however get the nose right…
November 4, 2010 at 4:48 pm
it kind of looks like me. but I don’t have swarovski crystals anywhere north of my belly button.
November 4, 2010 at 4:51 pm
I think Michael had a greater love for children. This really should have been made out of children to celebrate his one year death.
November 4, 2010 at 4:52 pm
That video would have been better if the music had been something by the Talking Heads.
November 4, 2010 at 4:53 pm
Aww, lookit, Michael is how he always wanted to be in life – sparkly and white.
November 4, 2010 at 4:58 pm
Are we sure this isn’t Mr. Data from ST:TNG? The damn video kept going out of focus before I could check for his off switch.
November 4, 2010 at 5:01 pm
Can’t improve on that comment@ Sculptor69.
The vid almost made me puke- looks a bit like mickey mouse, if mickey had been a humanoid.
November 4, 2010 at 5:04 pm
That Bedazzler was the BEST purchase ever!
November 4, 2010 at 5:05 pm
It doesn’t resemble Michael Jackson at all; it has a nose.
November 4, 2010 at 5:22 pm
@ hamoza: *curtsies* thanks. it’s not often all cylinders are firing at once. I think this is my one ZING! for the month, LOL.
November 4, 2010 at 5:29 pm
It’s not Michael Jackson. This was stolen out of the Discovery Times Square King Tut exhibit.
I haven’t seen this much bling since the vag-dazzling craze of aught-nine.
November 4, 2010 at 5:30 pm
As Michael Jackson it’s a total failure, but as K.D. Lang…
November 4, 2010 at 5:38 pm
That video was highly effective. I could not see the appeal in the thing when it was stationary, but after watching it spin a few times, OOOOH SHINY!!! WANT!!!
That is one hypnotic spinning head. If I had too much money, I would get a head covered in little crystals, mount it on a turn table, and invite my friends over to marvel at the sparkles under the influence of their favorite mind-altering substance. Except, my head would have to be Captain Picard, Tim Curry as Frank N. Furter, Freddy Krueger, or something along those lines.
November 4, 2010 at 5:40 pm
#16 along the same lines — I thought it was Queen Nefertiti with a ‘fro.
November 4, 2010 at 5:46 pm
@emlemony: VAJAZZLE!! was the first thought I had when I saw this thing. What a coincidence! ;D
November 4, 2010 at 5:50 pm
It’s Glitter Elvis!
November 4, 2010 at 6:19 pm
This could only be better if he was crying a sparkling tear and had a unicorn on his shoulder….
November 4, 2010 at 6:33 pm
I think Michael would’ve loved this. The only way it could be better is if it was bigger and made with real jewels.
November 4, 2010 at 6:45 pm
It’s glam, but it sure as hell isn’t Michael Jackson. And that video is seriously creepy.
November 4, 2010 at 6:47 pm
I think using the crystals would have been better done on a T-shirt for those screaming, sobbing fans.
You know the ones… they’ll be back at his ranch year after year, sobbing and screaming. They’ll name their pets and/or kids after Michael Jackson.
“This is my little daughter, Jaxisonia! *choking sob* I named her after MICHAEL! *snot-dripping sob* MY DEAR SWEET MICHAEL!”
“Mom, I’m twenty-two years old. You named me Rhonda. You changed my name when he died. I’m still Rhonda.”
November 4, 2010 at 6:52 pm
I’d pay $2,000 for a Bedazzled Michael Jackson, but for that David Duchovny they have listed, I’d only go as high as $500.
Oh, ok, $600, but that’s the X-Phile in me.
November 4, 2010 at 7:05 pm
I swear it’s like tacky got assaulted by an ugly stick. You have to really work to produce something so offensive to the eye, yet so damaging to the wallet.
November 4, 2010 at 7:05 pm
What puzzles me most about this is the fact that the seller thought the video of the revolving Michael Jackson bust was a good idea.
November 4, 2010 at 7:15 pm
“Honey, after God made you he broke the bedazzler.”
It looks too chubby to be Jackson. The video wouldn’t load for me. Did regretsy crash the youtube?
November 4, 2010 at 7:33 pm
Somewhere in Ireland, a craft store is completely out of rhinestones and tacky glue.
Emphasis on the tacky.

With just the addition of a slender Sharpie moustache, it would be very Little Richardesque.
November 4, 2010 at 8:40 pm
He looks … quizzical. Appropriate.
November 4, 2010 at 8:41 pm
This is stupid. I want a full body, life-size Swarovski MJ.
November 4, 2010 at 10:01 pm
@Lola – In which room would you display it, and would it be spinning?
November 4, 2010 at 10:02 pm
What a minute, I thought he was dead. When did he get more work done?
November 4, 2010 at 10:05 pm
$2000 and he didn’t even bother to carve the nose right! The nerve!
But seriously… $4 foam mannequin head + too many rhinestones =/= $2000.
…Unless it was a Bruce Willis head.
November 4, 2010 at 10:11 pm
I have read every single post, It is incredible to me that this is the one that caused me to come out of lurkdoom. Good Lord people this is so insane. Who has that kind of money for this kind of thing? I can’t spell lurk doom or lurk dumb. Whatever.
November 4, 2010 at 10:12 pm
ok I got it now I need me some Propofol!
November 4, 2010 at 10:13 pm
That face…looks like a foam head I’ve seen before used to model various hats on Ebay. Just look at the eyes. All decked out in reds and yellow ribbons, it reminds me of some Russian czar.
Video’s somewhat professional for an unrealistic impression of MJ.
November 4, 2010 at 10:36 pm
She also has a video of a Swarovski covered ICE CREAM CONE she made: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2kbLXdWsF4
Because Ice Cream Cone had a love of Swarovski crystals and it’s the ultimate fan art piece to represent the great dessert.
November 4, 2010 at 11:36 pm
Isn’t that music from the Edward Scissorhands soundtrack? Either way, it skeeves me out and makes me want cookies and cream at the same time.
November 5, 2010 at 12:20 am
Oh my dear sweet crystal studded Michael Jackson Jesus!!
November 5, 2010 at 12:48 am
the video made me think of twilight. maybe for a future project: edward cullen on a lazy susan, twinkling in the sunlight
November 5, 2010 at 1:08 am
Almost as good as a chocolate+bacon Conan O’Brien head.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yv5jZq5gbng
Almost.
November 5, 2010 at 2:32 am
The only way this can be improved is by changing the music: http://tinyurl.com/33jsk75
(for the best effect, mute the emotional piano soundtrack on the original)
Holy crap, that’s brilliant. – HK

Holy rhinestones, Batman!

My undying love and admiration goes to anyone who dares buy this thing, hang it from the ceiling, and use it as a disco ball.
November 5, 2010 at 4:54 am
Well, it just makes realize what a great loss his death really is.
Those blank Swarovski eyes make me realize that he really should have starred in a remake of Children of the Corn.

#38 Nico: I would have its base (with multi-speed revolving functionality) mounted on wheels so I could take it from room to room with me. And maybe take it for a walk around the neighborhood every once in a while.
November 5, 2010 at 8:02 am
I have a love of Baby Ruth bars.
I will stay alive for as long as I can in fear of how my loved ones will honor me in my passing.

Somebody pass me the Jesus juice I’m going to have nightmares

Those are three words I never wanted to hear together:
MICHAEL JACKSON HEAD

@ #55 Lola:
with a leash.
It would also make a great boys “Take back The Night” theraputic pinata exercise.
November 5, 2010 at 9:47 am
So THAT’s what happened to Michael. The Twilight vampires got him.
November 5, 2010 at 11:39 am
@lola; humalong:
and an Ipod mini clipped underneath, playing Billy Jean on repeat.
November 5, 2010 at 11:51 am
. . .all that effort.
For THIS.

Twinkle, twinkle dead rock star,
Not worth 2 grand, not by far,
Up above or down below
When you went to I don’t know.
Twinkle, twinkle dead rock star,
If this shit sells I’ll go to a bar.

Hah, I was redirected here from Regretsy. Sorry to inform you.
November 5, 2010 at 4:04 pm
$2000 for this what glue were you sniffing while making this???
November 5, 2010 at 7:25 pm
#55 Lola, you’ve thought of everything.
November 6, 2010 at 8:14 am
Doesn’t look much like MJ. The cheeks aren’t caved in, the lips aren’t red, and shouldn’t the nose be on the black pedestal?
Better go back to Michael’s (how appropriate) and get another foam head, some “crystals” and a bottle of Sobo glue.
November 6, 2010 at 8:51 am
Unless your name is Jeff Koons, you should not make something like this. Koons did it right, man….he included Bubbles the monkey.
November 6, 2010 at 12:59 pm
Wait! I see where she missed hot gluing a swarovski! I’ll pay $1,999 and not a penny more, madam!
November 6, 2010 at 2:22 pm
The nose is all wrong.
And that is a lot of up front cost to buy all those crystals to make something that by all logic will never sell.
November 6, 2010 at 5:09 pm
Too realistic!
November 7, 2010 at 3:25 pm
#49 ginntonique,
Thank you! The music was the key!! NOW i remember who it reminds me of…
it’s actually a bust of Micky Dolenz as Circus Boy !!!!!!!
November 8, 2010 at 10:20 am
I’ll only pay 2k if the nose is detachable
November 9, 2010 at 4:49 pm
“#73 laughinglurker :
I’ll only pay 2k if the nose is detachable”
Kind of like Mr. Potato Head’s?
November 30, 2010 at 9:21 pm
@ 12 sculptor69: Your comment made me think of an item that would totally sell. An Edward Cullen bust made of Swarovski crystals.
I just scared myself with the depravity of fangirls.
