Michael Jackson's glove sells for $65,000

A rare, sequinned white glove famously worn by Michael Jackson has sold for almost $65,000 at auction.

The garment, one of several hand coverings the King of Pop sported onstage and in music promos, was given by the star to his personal artist Paul Bedard in 1984, and he later sold it to a private collector.

It went up for auction via Nate D. Sanders in Los Angeles on Thursday (30Jul15) and fetched an impressive $64,850.

The sale also featured a prototype of the iconic jacket Jackson wore in the video for his 1987 hit Bad, which attracted a top bid of $12,500.
