小甜甜布兰妮出售自己的胸罩、男星克里·科为自己的牙齿叫卖……美国明星赚钱的方式可谓花样百出，但没有人比独立电影导演文森特·加洛的招数更绝——他要出卖自己的精子。

    据美联社11月5日报道，在什么事情都可能发生的美国名人圈里，出售精子仍是一件罕见的事情，至少没有人公开出售，但加洛在自己的官方网站上以100万美元的叫价出售自己的精子。广告称，100万的价格包括完成体外受精过程的费用。若买者采取体内受精的方式则将加收50万美元，但如果买者是重度吸烟者则可免去此附加费。

    广告中公开了加洛的身高，称他是优秀的运动健将以及摩托车好手，称43岁的他还拥有浓密的头发且几乎没有白发，称他无任何家族病史或残疾等。广告最后透露了加洛的生殖器的长度，甚至还附赠有相关图像的DVD来吸引买者。广告提到，加洛保留拒绝向肤色过黑的女性出售精子的权利；而天生金发碧眼的美女或中世纪德国士兵的后裔可享受5折的优惠。

    广告承诺说：“所售精子100％保证是加洛所出。”同时强调，按照交易规定，因加洛精子诞生的小孩不得冠以加洛的姓氏或者拥有其它冠名权。

    报道说，目前还不知加洛会以什么方式将精子送出。但美国邮政总局发言人格里·麦克尔南表示，像精子这样的物品也是属于可邮寄的。广告中没有提到100万美元的售价是否包含运费或包装费在内。

    Britney Spears considered parting with her bra. Corey Haim tried to peddle a tooth. But no star appears willing to give of himself more than Vincent Gallo.

    The indie film auteur apparently has offered to sell his sperm. For a Dr. Evil-esque $1 million.

    "Price includes all costs related to attempt at an in vitro fertilization," the listing on the merchandise wing on Gallo's official Website says.

    Fertilization by Gallo the old-fashioned way will run the buyer an additional $500,000, the site says, unless the star thinks said buyer is smoking hot in which case the additional fee is waived. (We paraphrase.)

    Naming rights are not included in the purchase--i.e., any baby produced from Gallo sperm may not be called a Gallo, the site says.

    An email and phone call to the acting, writing, directing multihyphenate were not returned. Unknown, then, is whether the site's serious, whether Gallo has had any takers, and how he's planning to ship the merchandise.

    According to Gerry McKiernan, spokesman for the U.S. Postal Service, items such as sperm are indeed, as they say in the trade, "mailable."

    In the supposedly anything-goes celebrity world, sperm sales are rare. Or at least they're not publicly advertised.

    The site vows that the sperm is "100 percent guaranteed" to be of the loins of Gallo, best known for his 1998 art-house hit, Buffalo '66, and that said owner-operator of loins is "drug, alcohol and disease free."

    The buyer is informed that Gallo is 5-foot-11, an award-winning athlete and motorcyle racer, a dashing 43 (with "a distinctively full head of hair and...surprisingly few gray hairs"), with no family history of physical deformities. Or, as the site puts it: "No cripples."

    Oh, and there's one other thing: An eight-inch-long penis. According to the site, Gallo has one.

    "If you have seen Brown Bunny, you know the potential size of the [baby's] genitals if it's a boy," the site says. "I don't know how a well-hung father can enhance the physical makeup of a female baby, but it can't hurt."

    If the buyer hasn't seen The Brown Bunny--it received an extremely limited release in 2003--it's now on DVD. Gallo's penis shares a scene with Chlo Sevigny at the end of the movie--the film's climax.

    On the merchandise site, it's stated that Gallo "maintains the right to refuse the sale of his sperm to those of extremely dark complexions."

    But wait, there's more: The Gallo site offers a $50,000 sperm discount to anyone--well, any female--who can prove she's naturally fair-haired and blue-eyed, and/or related to "any of the German soldiers of the mid-century."

    Gallo's reproductive offer, however, does not rule out Jewish buyers, and, in fact, encourages them. It's said that the actor would consider his potential offspring's Jewish heritage a bonus, as this would "guarantee [the child] a better chance at good reviews and maybe even a prize at the Sundance Film Festival."

    No word if the $1 million covers shipping and extremely cautious handling.
