Taylor Swift fans are paying up to $25 for pieces of trash, including cigarette butts and an ovulation test kit, collected near the U.S. pop star's wedding to NFL player Travis Kelce.
A New York artist picked up the garbage last Friday from city streets around Madison Square Garden, where the couple staged a glamorous event for hundreds of celebrity guests amid a global frenzy.
All of the items, sold individually, were snatched up by Wednesday, within 24 hours of sales starting: water bottle caps, ring pop candy, police caution tape, straws, utensils – as well as a single left AirPod.
"It's getting a lot of Swifties who just want a tangential piece of the wedding," said Justin Gignac, who is selling the trash on his website New York City Garbage.
Each item – described online as a "sculpture" – is sealed inside a tiny plastic cube to prevent leaks or odors.
