Fun Friday Insurance Fact

Back in 2006, Jeb reported that Mariah Carey took out an insurance policy on her legs:

The thing that lends the body-part-insurance publicity stunt a modicum of credibility is that these stars really do owe a chunk of their paychecks to certain anatomical assets. Although it smacks of self-promotion, the practice has a certain amount of logic behind it.

Which is interesting considering that I've just learned that Tom Jones recently insured his chest hair to the tune of $7 million.**

For a second I wondered how Tom Jones's chest hair positively impacted his timeless career. Then I quickly turned my attention to more important things, like this compilation of Carlton Banks dancing to Tom Jones.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
