New York - How snotty: Scarlett Johansson blew her nose on a tissue, and now the tissue is being sold on eBay.
Johansson appeared on NBC's Tonight talk show on Wednesday to promote her new movie, The Spirit.
The actress said she'd caught a cold from co-star Samuel L Jackson, and felt her illness had value because it had been passed down from one celebrity to another.
Host Jay Leno then handed her a tissue, and Johansson announced she would sell it on eBay to raise money for the hunger relief charity USA Harvest. She blew twice, depositing some lipstick and mucus.
As of Thursday morning, the dirty tissue had snagged more than 60 bids, with the highest bidder putting up $2 050. The online auction ends on Monday.
