Ever dreamed of visiting space? Ever dreamed of visiting space...with Leonardo DiCaprio?
That very trip went for $1.5 million in a charity auction this past week, which will help to benefit AIDS research. The man who bought the trip will undergo a rigorous three days of training with DiCaprio before the two blast off into the cosmos.
The winning bidder also bought a $517,000 gold and diamond necklace in the auction, so evidently his pockets aren't hurting at all from that space trip. Hey, at least trips to space are becoming easier and easier to make.

Endorsement Pains: Big K.R.I.T. Crown Royal Ad Causes $1 Million Lawsuit
Loved soul group The O'Jays are very unhappy about a new Crown Royal whiskey commercial which uses their most well known hit, "For The Love Of Money."
The group filed a lawsuit against Crown Royal for using the song, and claimed they were humiliated by the advertisement.

The commercial features Mississippi rapper Big K.R.I.T. rapping over the O'Jays music, and two of the original members are having none of it. The singers called K.R.I.T. "a poser with limited ability to carry a tune" who performed a "self-aggrandizing childish rap."
The O'Jays are asking for more than a million dollars in damages.
