KIM Kardashian bought Michael Jackson's HAT from Smooth Criminal for £50k as a weird Christmas gift for her six-year-old daughter North.
The 29-year-old reality queen shocked fans earlier this week when she revealed she had bought her eldest daughter an original jacket worn by the late King of Pop for over £50,000.

But that wasn't the end of her MJ spending spree, as Kim took to Instagram this weekend to show fans the white fedora hat worn by Michael that she had purchased for North for another £50k.
She wrote alongside a picture of the hat: "Along with jacket, North also got Michael's Smooth Criminal hat.
"It still has his make up on it."
The mother-of-four then shared a closer up shot of the foundation marks on one side of the hat as well as the singer's name printed in gold letters on the black leather trim.

That wasn't the end of Kim's nostalgia spending spree, as she also bought her brother Rob, 32, two of Elvis Presley's rings.
Sharing a picture of the two hold rings - one with diamonds and one with a ruby in the middle - as well as the certificates of authenticity, Kim wrote: "I'm obsessed with auctions and my brother is the biggest Elvis Presley fan so I got him two of Elvis's rings for Christmas!"
She then thanked Julien's Auctions for helping her with generous gifts.

Earlier this week, Kim revealed she and husband Kanye West had won Michael's jacket, which he wore for Elizabeth Taylor's 65th birthday party in 1997, at an auction.
The exclusive piece of memorabilia, which is now owned by the six-year-old super fan, sold for £50,707 ($65,625).
Kim told her followers: “Kanye and I gave North this jacket, and, this was Michael Jackson's jacket that he wore with Elizabeth Taylor.

“The sleeves are half tacked up so when she gets older we can untack the sleeve and it can grow with her and she can have this for her whole life.”
She added: “She's so grateful and so excited.”
