A Painting of Channing Tatum's Ballsack Sold for $6.6K on eBay

If you want to own a masterpiece, you gotta pay the price!

How much would you realistically pay for some cute wall art for your apartment? $25? $50?? $75??? How about $6,600, plus shipping and handling. No? Well that's how much some rich AF art connoisseur paid for a portrait of Channing Tatum showing off his ballsack that was being sold on eBay.

Yup, we didn't know a thing like that even existed, let alone was in demand, but there's apparently an audience out there for half-nude paintings of hunky actors displaying their nether regions. I can't really blame whoever the buyer is though. The Magic Mike, 21 Jump Street, and She's the Man star is still a total dreamboat, and the painting (which was being listed by a seller named apollo25 and done by artist Chris Mann) captures every inch—and I mean every inch—of him perfectly. 

At the time it was first discovered and reported on by Vice late last week, the highest bid for Mann's painting (or should I say taint-ing) was only a much more modest $230. Word obviously got out about the unique and weirdly sensual portrait, however, and while I was monitoring the listing over the weekend (strictly for research purposes), at one point, the highest bid reached a dizzying $11,100. (My wallet was crying just thinking about all that money. See the screenshot below.)

*sigh* A masterpiece like this only comes around once in a lifetime, so we hope whoever the anonymous buyer is who was lucky (and rich) enough to get their hands on this exquisite piece is taking really good care of it. (I know I would.)
