Hip-hop star DJ Khaled is selling off key pieces of clothing from his
own wardrobe to raise money for an educational charity.
The I'm The One hitmaker has joined forces with officials from online
marketplace Poshmark to offload four batches of clothing, with the first
collection going up for sale on Tuesday (11Jul17).
Among the items offered on the site include the custom pale blue sateen
suits he and his baby son Asahd wore for the cover for his new album Grateful,
with Khaled's listed at $2,250 (£1,750), and his boy's miniature version priced
at $1,350 (£1,050).
Other pieces include a $450 (£350) custom white leather sweat suit, a
$234 (£182) custom green utility shirt bearing his stage moniker on one pocket
and the name of rapper Fat Joe's Terror Squad group embroidered on the other,
and the Yamaha life vest the DJ wore in December, 2015, when he famously got
lost at sea on a jet ski off the coast of Miami, Florida. That item is up for
grabs at $5,000 (£3,890).
A portion of proceeds from the sale will help bosses at the Get Schooled
non-profit continue to motivate students across the U.S. to graduate high
school and move on to college.
Khaled isn't the only star clearing out his
wardrobe for a good cause, actress Lena Dunham revealed on Monday (10Jul17)
that she is holding a clothing sale via TheRealReal.com. Money raised from her
campaign will benefit the Planned Parenthood of America women's health organisation.
