Ever wonder how much Mariah Carey's legs are worth? Or J.Lo's bootylicious behind?
24/7 QuotesUS.com has compiled a list of narcissistic celebrities and their quirky insurance policies. The site calls celebrities "a narcissistic breed who tend to value themselves above most ... obsessed with their bodies and worldly assets and terrified that they one day will lose them."
Herewith, their top 10 list of the most vain (and wacky) celebrity insurance policies:
10. Tom Jones' chest hair, $7 million

Okay, this one is actually false. According to 24/7QuotesUS.com, the rumor that Tom Jones insured his chest hair is an urban legend. The only reason they included Jones on the list is to put an end to the myth. But that is some nice chest hair.
9. Rod Stewart's voice, $6 million

The site says, "In the unfortunate event that something actually does happen to Stuey’s voice, at least he no longer has to eat chalk. And with his insurance money he can always buy Bob Dylan."
8. Dolly Parton's breasts, $600,000

"Parton is not only known for her music career, but also for her recent insurance claims. Making sure her bust is safely insured, Parton has taken out a policy of no less than $300,000, per breast."
[Personal note: I don't think it was fair to include Dolly on this list. She's probably the friendlist, most kind-hearted person on earth, not narcissitic at all. And those famous knockers need insuring. They are a national treasure!]
7. Jennifer Lopez's booty, $27 million

"Perhaps one of the most famous celebrity insurance cases is Jennifer Lopez’s behind. A staggering $27 million: That’s how much J-Lo's butt cost to insure. For you math geeks that’s $100,000 per square inch."
6. America Ferrera's teeth, $10 million

"Ugly Betty actress America Ferrera turned out to be simply gorgeous. Finally free from those awful rails, Ferrera did not wait long to insure her teeth. $10,000,000 is a fair price for a million dollar smile, don’t you agree?"
5. Miriah Carey's legs, $1 billion

Yes, you read that correctly. "Safe to say, the most expensive pair of legs on this planet. Winning Gillette Venus Vibrance Legs of a Goddess competition in 2005, Carey was quick to secure her two best assets for up to $1 billion."
4. Gene Simmmons' tongue, $1 million

Did you know Simmons had his tongue surgically extended? Well, that's been the rumor for the past 30 years.
"When extending his tongue surgically, Kiss vocalist and music genius Gene Simmons did the responsible thing: He insured it. Being both a trademark of the band and for Simmons himself, that tongue was probably well worth insuring."
3. Keith Richards' middle finger, $1.6 million

"Fearing that his foes will break his middle finger he so often use to flip them off, Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards has had it insured. No really, Richards probably just figures that the finger making all that sweet music on the guitar deserves its own $ 2 million policy."
2. Shirley MacLaine's fear of UFO abduction, $25

Yes," Alien abduction insurance actually exists. It is offered by a handful of agencies around the country and currently include over 20,000 policy holders. Since the chance of being abducted by aliens is seemingly small and proving it almost impossible, these policies normally cost little and pay out a lot. American actress Shirley MacLaine reportedly has her own UFO abduction policy – just in case."
1. David Lee Roth's semen, $1 million

Topping the list of unusual celebrity insurance claims is no other than Van Halen’s own David Lee Roth. As his music career took off, Roth did what any rock star would do. He got his semen insured. It is however unclear whether the $1 million insurance policy will act as a refund if Roth by mistake gets one of his groupies pregnant or if it is to work more like a giant million dollar condom.

Comments
The Dolly breast insurance myth was also debunked years ago by Entertainment Tonight. However, because one supermarket tabloid reported it and one foreign newspaper mistakenly assumed the tabloid story was true and repeated it, leading other legitimate media to cite it based on that newspaper's repeating the tabloid "fact," it simply will not die.
