15 Celebrities Who Collect Some Very Odd Stuff

celebrities are, sometimes, just like the rest of us in that they develop obsessive collecting habits for seemingly random items. The only differences? To expand their collections, they have thousands of dollars to spend. There are many things that they can make into collections such as vintage cars, a Skittles machine, or a basement bowling alley in their house.
However, not all celebrities invest in the tedious rich-people desires, such as collecting cars, real estate, or other items. The fact is, they have money to burn, but they don't just want all of the usual suspects. Some people have truly bizarre collections.
For example, who else is going to deny that Kirk Hammett's collection of horror movie posters is odd? But he is not the only famous person who has begun to collect weird things and show them off.
