Bizarre Tributes to Celebrities

Celebrity worship is hardly something new.

The entertaining part though is to keep an eye on the freaks and weirdos that come out of the woodwork and jump on the bandwagon in some vain attempt to align themselves to the stars.

Looking to set themselves apart - it's sometimes baffling how far these guys are prepared to take things.


Here's just a few to get the juices flowing courtesy Pop Crunch.com

Do'h!

Oh and folks - beware a couple of images may offend.



Elvis


Apparently for the last 20 years or so, people have been ducking into the Aspen wilderness just beyond well-traveled ski-slopes, where they put up shrines to beloved celebrities. Most of the time, the heroes are deceased, and some aren’t even the Hollywood type at all; they could be a favorite teacher or a local who was just a really good guy. The more well-known shrines belong to Elvis and Marilyn,

Cruise



Sculptor and outright weirdo Daniel Edwards claimed to have obtained Suri Cruise’s first droppings even before the child had been displayed to the public. He dipped the gift in bronze and produced a tiny monument to the absurd. Whether or not the poo was genuine or a complete load of crap, nobody could say, though plenty asked. The piece was auctioned off on Ebay for $10,000 — proceeds went to charity.

Britney


This hideous monstrosity is almost to ridiculous to comprehend, but it happened, and it truly does exist. The same guy who bronzed Suri’s poop felt the need to create a life-size statue of Britney Spears
, giving birth, doggy style, on a bearskin rug. Forgiving the fact that the stone woman’s face looks much more like Ashley Judd than Britney Spears, it’s highly unlikely that Spears gave birth atop a bearskin rug in such a provocative pose. This thing hurts to look at.

Kate Moss
Kate Moss is perhaps more famous now for being slightly unfamous, and largely made fun-of in pop culture for being skinny enough to fit through cracks in the floorboards. The guy who went to all the trouble (and considerable expense) of making this monstrosity claims that it’s the largest golden statue of its kind since the days of Ancient Egypt. We think it’s the largest waste of time and money in the history of man kind. The truly sad part is that this thing is actually being housed in a museum. The world as we know it very well may be ending.


The 7 Creepiest Simpsons Fan Tributes -- powered by Cracked.com


We love The Simpsons as much as anyone else, but it’s more of an in memorial sort of fashion since the show stopped being terribly interesting after about its 20th season. Somehow, it still manages to whip people into a frenzy, and every year there are more tributes, more tattoos, more lookalike contests and more strange fan-made videos surfacing online. We keep telling ourselves that it will stop someday.
