English television personality Katie Price, also known as Jordan, was offered the princely sum of £50,000 ($65,000) by a complete stranger for "12 hours of sexual favours".
The issue began back when she attempted to sell a beloved pink Jeep on eBay and one potential buyer offered to purchase the car for £50,000, in exchange for sexual acts.
As seen on the latest episode of the reality TV show My Crazy Life, the incident happened when Katie and her boyfriend Kris Boyson were visiting their friend Steve’s garage to discuss selling the vehicle. Steve stated "Well it’s unique and it’s got a celebrity status so people will buy it," before revealing the risqué proposal he'd received from a fan of Jordan's (the programme chose to keep this person's identity secret).
According to Steve, the message read: "Ok we know who the owner is. I’ll give her £50,000 for the car if she spends 12 hours with me and purely confidential." Kris seemed highly amused by the idea, and joked "She ain’t worth that mate!" while Katie asked: "Can I have his number?"
Just a day after the Jeep was listed on eBay, it was taken down, A source close to the couple told British tabloid newspaper The Mirror that Katie was later bombarded by inappropriate messages from people who were only too happy to take her up on her offer. They stated: "We had to remove [the listing] because of all the calls and messages we had been getting. It’s still not sold."
This incident has occurred mere months after Price was almost declared bankrupt last year after several of her businesses failed.
The cost of living crisis is hitting everyone hard, so it's no wonder people are looking to alternative ways of making money - such as selling a jar of spit for hundreds of dollars.
While many of us might be making cutbacks as bills continue to increase, the market for jars of spit appears to be holding strong, as one adult creator revealed she sold a tub of her own saliva for £200 ($245).
Elle Brooke, an OnlyFans model, recently opened up about the strangest requests she has ever had from her subscribers on the site.
From custom videos barking like a dog - which apparently is not that uncommon a request - to selling her own saliva, the adult entertainer has made a lot of money from people's unusual fetishes.
Brooke, who is currently undefeated as a YouTube boxer, having knocked out Faith Ordway in the first round on the undercard of KSI vs Faze Temperrr fight on January 14, as well as beating Love Island's AJ Bunker in a previous bout, also revealed just how much she can make on OnlyFans per month.
She revealed in an interview with The Taboo Room: "I once sold a tub of spit for like £200. I did a custom barking like a dog, but I think that's pretty normal now."
One of the more disturbing requests she has ever had was to pretend she was being sexually assaulted by a ghost in a custom video - compared to which, barking like a dog truly does sound tame.
While getting paid hundreds to spit in a tub might seem like a tempting prospect for most, it's just a drop in the ocean (sorry) for Brooke's monthly income.
Her explicit content and her monthly subscribers are reportedly bringing in "easily" £30,000 ($37,000), meaning she has cut down on the custom requests she fulfils for her fans.
She explained: "I do requests, not so much anymore because it'd be extremely expensive for me to even move. I'm kind of lazy now.
"My first couple of months I was making seven grand a month. At the time I was at uni, I was like 'that’s absolutely ridiculous,' bearing in mind I never grew up with money.
"After a year I was easily making 30 grand a month, and it’s only built up since then."
While raking in such an insane monthly income is merely a dream for most people, Brooke admitted that she is actually considering packing in the adult work sometime in the future.
She admitted: "It pains me to say this but I'm really... not [that] I'm falling out of love with OnlyFans but I think I’ve lost that spunk that I once had.
"I think when you become kind of complacent and you are happy where you are, that's when... you know, I like to always be pushing myself and exceeding my goals.
"Whereas now I think with OnlyFans I think I have somewhat plateaued. I don't think I can get any bigger than what I have now, so I think that I have kind of fallen out of love with it."
A top BBC star has allegedly been taken off air following allegations they paid a teenager over £35,000 ($45,000) for sexual images.
According to claims from The Sun, the "well-known presenter" allegedly began paying the vulnerable teen when they were 17 years old.
The presenter is alleged to have asked for "performances" from the individual in exchange for the sums of money, which the teen used to fund their crack cocaine habit.
The teen's mother told the publication: "Whenever I see him on telly, I feel sick. I blame this BBC man for destroying my child’s life - taking my child’s innocence and handing over the money for crack cocaine that could kill my child."

She added: "The money had been in exchange for sexually explicit photographs of my child," claiming that the star sent hundreds or thousands of pounds in each go, allegedly once depositing £5,000 ($6,400) in one installment.
The family is claimed to have made a formal complaint to the BBC in May, and begged the corporation to make the man "stop sending the cash".
The mother described her child, who is now 20, as having gone from a "happy-go-lucky youngster" to a "ghost-like crack addict" within the past three years.
She had approached The Sun to share her claims, telling the publication that she did not want payment but wanted the unnamed presenter to stop sending her child money for sexual photos.
She also claimed to have seen online bank statements from her child, which included several deposits from the star.
A spokesperson for the BBC told the publication in a statement: "We treat any allegations very seriously and we have processes in place to proactively deal with them.
"As part of that, if we receive information that requires further investigation or examination, we will take steps to do this.
"That includes actively attempting to speak to those who have contacted us in order to seek further detail and understanding of the situation.
"If, at any point, new information comes to light or is provided — including via newspapers — this will be acted upon appropriately, in line with internal processes."

A woman has revealed she was left with a $500 bill on a date after the man she was meeting left her to pay for it.
Annie Knight, an OnlyFans creator who recently hit headlines for sleeping with 300 people in one year, took to TikTok to share a recent dating disaster she'd experienced.
The adult content creator, who splits her time between the Gold Coast and Melbourne in Australia, told her followers she'd been talking to a man for a week on a dating app before agreeing to meet up with him for dinner.
She revealed the date had been going pretty well, rating it a seven out of 10, until she popped to the toilet and came back to find the bill had arrived at the table.
Annie explained: "I come back and the bill's on the table, which is fine. And it sits there for ages and we're still talking and whatever, and I'm like this is getting a bit awkward now. Is he going to say something? Is he going to put his card down?"
She clarified: "I don't expect the guy to pay but I always expect him to at least offer. If we go halves that's so fine, I'm more than happy to do that."
However, it seemed that the man didn't want to go halves and just expected that Annie would be the one to foot the entire bill.
"Anyway, eventually the waiter comes over and she's like 'are you guys ready to pay?' And he just looks at me and goes: 'She's paying.'"

She revealed that the bill came to a pricey $500, adding: "I assume that obviously he's seen all the stories and stuff about how much money I make and just thought I'd cop the bill.
"Like, I don't care, I paid the bill but like... what?"
She concluded the video by adding: "So, safe to say I will not be seeing that man again."
Recently, Annie had opened up about the money she was making on OnlyFans, revealing: "So from May this year until September this year, I was making about AU$150,000 ($95,000) a month.
"This month in October, it looks like I'm going to crack the 200,000 mark, which is beyond anything I ever dreamed of."
She continued: "Back in like January of this year, I was earning about $30,000 per month, and now I earn that in like half a week."
She also warned others that it's not necessarily easy to make such huge figures on the site, explaining: "I would like to say that obviously there's a lot of work involved with being a spicy creator.
"I think a lot of people see TikToks like these and think, oh my god, that's such easy money like I can do that too. But there is so much marketing involved, so much PR involved.
"You really do have to work and hustle and make sacrifices if you want to be earning the big bucks. I think honestly unless you're famous like Anna Paul, Michaela Testa, Bella Thorne, whatever, you're not gonna be making hundreds of thousands of dollars a month unless you're hustling. I have worked so hard for the past three years."
There are many things in life that we consider to be priceless. A loving relationship, a caring family, and good health all make the list - but what else makes the cut? Happiness? Job satisfaction? Confidence?
How about virginity?
Many people count this to be as sacred as their first love, and would probably recoil at the idea of selling off their 'first time' to a complete stranger - but not 19-year-old Giselle. It turns out that she didn't consider her maidenhood to be priceless at all, and quite happily sold it to a man for a whopping $2.9million.
The price was decided on through a bidding war hosted by Cinderella Escorts, a German website which attained a somewhat infamous status last year when an 18-year-old Russian model auctioned off her virginity for $2.7million.
Of all the bids submitted, the highest came from a wealthy businessman from Abu Dhabi, while the second highest ($2.8million) is reported to have come from a Hollywood actor - but Cinderella Escorts is remaining discreet about his identity.
Giselle, a model based in the US, says she is "happy to have decided to sell my virginity through Cinderella Escorts," and that the deal is "a dream come true" for her. With her earnings, she plans to go to college, buy a house, and travel the world.
Essentially, in exchange for having one sexual encounter, she's pretty much set up for life. And who wouldn't want that?
In fact, Giselle considers the deal to be more than just an easy way to make a ton of money; she also sees it as a way to claim her own sexuality and express her bodily autonomy:
"If I want to spend my first time with someone who is not my first love, that's my decision," the model said.
She added: "The fact that women can do what they want with their bodies and have the courage to live their sexuality free against the critics sets a sign for emancipation".
And, really, when you consider how many people regret their first time anyway - is it really such an awful decision to make? As Giselle herself pointed out, "In retrospect, how many would probably give up their first time if they could have 2.5million Euros instead?"
Jan Zakobielski, the 27-year-old man who runs the escort website, has previously said that a woman's virginity is like a "luxury car" or "very old wine", in that people consider it to be a highly valuable commodity.
In a statement, a spokesman for Cinderella Escorts said:
"On our website, you will find a video where girls from all over the world talk about the reasons to sell their virginity.
"[T]he high bidding for Giselle's auction shows us how high the demand for virgins is. Business people from all over the world have been bidding."
Yes, it might seem weird and creepy but, ultimately, Giselle made the decision to sell her first time out of her own free will, and she appears to have spent time carefully making plans with what to do with her money. Some may consider the transaction to be incredibly misogynistic, but - for Giselle and the other escorts, at least - it seems more like feminism.
They say money can't buy you love - but perhaps they never met Jane Park. Jane is Britain's youngest Euromillions winner, having scooped £1 million ($1.3 million) on her first lottery ticket six years ago when she was only 17.
However, the influx of money hasn't helped her love life and she is allegedly offering to pay a man £60,000 ($78,000) a year to date her - a strategy many people are calling "desperate measures".

While the story remains unconfirmed by Jane herself, according to the Mirror, the 23-year-old is planning on launching a website so men can apply for the role. The whole process - including the initial interview stages - will reportedly be filmed for a new documentary, set to air next year.
Jane candidly talks about her "miserable" life in the video below, but would you take her up on her offer?
A source told the Mirror that the lottery winner's bad luck in love had spurred her to make this decision, claiming Jane is "willing to pay the right price for someone loyal".

"Jane is amazing and has so much to give but she has found herself alone again as since she won, she’s had terrible luck," they said. "She’s never sure whether she is being loved for herself or for her bank balance. So she would rather have the arrangement out in the open."
This is not the first time Jane has stirred up controversy. Check out the time a pro-wrestler threw a glass of water in her face on a talk show:
The source continued: "Jane has a tendency to be insecure sometimes and worries about people’s motives. She is willing to pay the right price for someone loyal. Loyalty is the most important thing to her – the money is a small price to pay."
Writing in new! magazine, Jane said:
“My failing love life was becoming such a problem that I even hired Harley Street psychologist Dr Becky Superman to help me become 'wifey material'.
“Then, one night, I came up with an idea to help me solve my dating problems.
“I was watching a reality show online called Kept, featuring model Jerry Hall, in which men competed for the opportunity to be her “kept man” for a year – along with a six-figure salary.”

Amazingly (or, perhaps not), more than 10,000 men responded to Jane's first advertisement, leaving her "both thrilled and petrified".
The millionaire has dated X Factor finalist Sam Callahan and English professional footballer Jordan Piggott in the past, but both relationships allegedly ended in heartbreak.

Her big win in 2012 led her to quit her £8-per-hour ($10.38-per-hour) job as an admin temp and move out of the Edinburgh flat she shared with her mother. She also splashed out on plastic surgery on her teeth, breasts and bum, a new car, a house and several glamorous holidays.
However, last year it was revealed that money hadn't brought her happiness. In 2017, she opened up to The Mirror about how the money had made her life "ten times worse".
[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / Jane Park]]
"I thought it would make it 10 times better but it’s made it 10 times worse," she said. "I wish I had no money most days. I say to myself, 'My life would be so much easier if I hadn’t won'. People look at me and think, 'I wish I had her lifestyle, I wish I had her money.' But they don’t realise the extent of my stress. I have material things but apart from that my life is empty. What is my purpose in life?"
In addition, she claimed she was planning to sue lottery bosses for "negligence", stating that the minimum age of 16 was too young.

"I think 18 should be the minimum age for winning the lottery, at the least. The current age of 16 is far too young," she said.
So, will Jane find the man of her dreams soon? Let's hope so.
