A while back it was announced that the (allegedly) only oil portrait Michael Jackson ever posed for was going up on Ebay with an asking price of $5,400,000, and an auction starting price of $2,750,000.00.

The auction for this horrifying “art” object ends tonight. There are zero bids as of this post.

Wonder why nobody wants to pay between 2 and 5 million bucks for a mall-poster/sub-Thomas Kincaid Painter of Light portrait of one of the most photographed people on the planet, who just happened to have terrible taste in visual art that is not even bad-kitsch-good?

Check out the full portrait:
