Things American celebs wasted their money on: It is hard to believe that celebrities were once upon a time totally normal and ordinary human-beings who could, in some cases, hardly afford to go on holidays let alone spend millions of dollars on flashy jewelry or private jets. Indeed, while we are extremely curious about the lives of celebrities, we often find it hard to relate to them. After all, they’re so famous and so rich that they can allow themselves almost everything whereas we have to make sure we keep on track with our budget if we want to live comfortably. While some celebrities like to keep their wealth on the down low, keeping quiet about their ridiculously expensive purchases, most can’t say no to publicly sharing their recently acquired flashy items. After all, if you purchase gold toilets it is only natural you’ll want to share them with the world, right?

Below we have compiled a list of fifteen ridiculously flashy items bought by Hollywood celebrities. Some of the items are more outrageous and ridiculous than others but absolutely all are flashy and extremely expensive.
15 Tom Cruise’s $36 Million Gulfstream IV
Some Hollywood stars have so much money that they think nothing of spending millions on flashy items. Take the actor Tom Cruise and his Gulfstream IV as an example. We understand that his private jet is a rather useful item but surely he didn’t have to spend $36 million on it?
The flashy jet can fit up to 20 passengers as well as two crew members to attend to the passengers’ every need.
At least Cruise uses his jet extensively, flying to his sets and back home in record time (the jet is powered by two Rolls Royce engines), which, some may say, justifies him spending millions on a flashy jet.
14 Victoria Beckham’s $30,000 Gold iPhone
Most of us would be ecstatic to get our hands on the newest iPhone. Not Victoria Beckham however. The ex-Spice Girl has opted for a custom gold iPhone instead. The gold iPhone costs about $30,000 and according to the website of the UK designer Stuart Hughes, contains about 150 grams of 24-carat gold! Now that’s quite a luxurious phone.
However, while Beckham certainly went for a flashy option, she did restrain herself somewhat. After all, the ex-singer could have gotten a prehistoric iPhone with a T-Rex tooth for around $55,000 or even a phone that contains 500 perfectly cut diamonds for around $7 million. Of course, this was a couple of years ago so we’re sure that Beckham has upgraded her phone suitably.
