Auction Man
Is there nothing James Blunt won't sell off, given half a chance? He's already got shot of a motorbike on eBay, and most of his flat, and even managed to get his sister transport to a funeral in Ireland. A deal which resulted in a very beautiful relationship between her and her knight in shining armour.
And now, to raise money for the medical organisation Doctors Without Borders, James is selling himself off, to the highest bidder, on every single night of his Autumnal Stateside tour.
But before you lovesick ladies book yourself on the next flight over the Atlantic, you might want to know that all you'll get for your money is the chance to meet with James after his riotous concert, and then chat with him about life and stuff.
Still, you can't argue with the good cause, and it's possible that that's exactly the sort of thing a lot of (middle-aged, female) James Blunt fans would love to do with their warbling troubadour. But be warned, trouble could be on the horizon, as James revealed to the press around the time of his last big eBay clearout.
He said: "I have a second sister, who's gonna go on sale soon."
Have your money ready, ladies and gentlemen, everything must go...
