Angelina Jolie's Leather Jacket Used to Launch Movie
References: cgi.ebay & aceshowbiz
Instead of auctioning memorabilia post movie-launch, Angelina Jolie's leather jacket from 'Wanted' is being auctioned now. The obvious goal of this charity auction is to promote the movie.
Everyone wants a piece of Angelina Jolie, so if you have a few thousands to spare, now is your chance.
Valued at $1,000, the jacket is currently on eBay with bids topping $7,000 at the time of writing. All proceeds from the sale will go to "Plan!t Now," an organization that was started by fellow Wanted star Morgan Freeman. The organization helps communities prepare for natural disasters before they occur.
The black leather jacket is extra small with, "A diagonal front zipper and tassles on the zipper pulls."
Watch the movie's trailer above and look for the coveted jacket in the gallery below.
