Got $40K? Own Madonna's Naughty Messages

One way to make a quick buck: Sell erotic phone messages Madonna left on your answering machine. That’s what former bodyguard-turned-boyfriend Jim Albright is doing, the New York Daily News reports, and the 17 minutes of recordings are expected to fetch $40,000. Also up for grabs: A 15-minute “very personal and intimate video” the Material Girl gave him, and 21 sexy faxes they exchanged.

The Madonna memorabilia, all from 1992-1994, joins items such as Bob Dylan’s handwritten Hard Rain lyrics and Jimi Hendrix’s first known contract at the Aug. 5 auction. The Madonna stash is made up of “very personal items that we’re showing by appointment only, and that’s all I can say about it,” says a rep. (More Madonna stories.)
