Scarlett snotty tissue on eBay

Marie Claire celebrity news: Scarlett Johansson

It seems Scarlett Johansson will do anything to raise money for charity, that's why she is selling her used tissue on eBay.

The actress was appearing on the Tonight show, hosted by Jay Leno, when she said she'd caught a cold from Samuel L Jackson whilst filming their new movie, The Spirit.

Being the gentleman he is, Leno handed her a tissue and she promptly blew her nose.

Then came the brainwave.

The newly wed announced that she was going to auction off the snotty rag on eBay because, according to her, it contained the germs from two Hollywood stars and therefore would have a higher value.

Weirdly, it turns out she was right, as fans have been bidding around the clock, with the highest bid already at $2000.

All of the dosh made will go towards hunger charity USA Harvest.

It's gross, but it's true!
