A lunch date with Boulder-bred actress Jessica Biel went for $30,000 at a charity auction last month for Molly Bloom, the teen who lost a leg in a limo accident on prom night.
Make that a double date.
Her father, Jon Biel confirmed Thursday that Biel has agreed to go on a second date with another high bidding gent. He would not disclose names or numbers, but we hear it was for another $30,000! Yowza.
“Actually, several men called and matched the $30,000 bid,” organizer Jeanne Lee said but did not elaborate on how the second date was chosen.
Biel is about to break out as a star. She was chosen last year by Esquire as the “Sexiest Woman Alive” and stars in the soon-to-open flick “The Illusionist”with Edward Norton and Paul Giamatti. Next comes “Home of the Brave,” with Samuel L. Jackson, 50 Cent and Christina Ricci.
Biel is reportedly surprised that a guy would shell out $30,000 for lunch let alone two guys. In this week’s Time magazine, she says of the $30,000 date: “I think I’ll have the salad. I don’t know what the guy looks like. I think he’s in the oil business. I didn’t anticipate this to be such a publicized event. My dad said, Be prepared for someone to spend a few hundred bucks.’ But it went beyond.”
Biel was set to have her first lunch date Friday.
