Nick visited Dr. Squatch's "Ball Valuation Tool" which can determine how much they think a man's genitals are worth. Now it's by no means a scientific evaluation. It seems as if it's for fun however Nick was given the elusive title of Most Valuable Balls. According to Nick: “Shoutout to Dr. Squatch for giving my balls the credit they deserve and hooking me up with the protection I need to keep this family tree rolling!”
Is the whole thing real? Was it all just a publicity stunt? Regardless, if you go to the Dr. Squatch site, you can check to see how much your balls are worth. Now what you want to do with that information is on you. If it's determined your balls are worth over 1.9 million, your balls will go into the "Ball of Fame."
Celebrities who've insured body parts
Celebrities insuring body parts is a pretty popular thing. Nick Cannon certainly is not the first person to do it. Artists like Bruce Springsteen have insured their vocal chords. America Ferrara has insured her teeth. Now what does it technically mean to insure a body part? Think of it as an extension of disability insurance. The exact definition of insuring a body part is: "to supplement lost income if a body part is damaged, injured, scarred, handicapped, or lost." There have been several celebrities who've insured their body parts. Let's take a look at some of the more notable ones.
Heidi Klum insured her legs
Heidi Klum has reportedly insured her legs for $2.2 million. This is true although Heidi does explain, it wasn't her who did it. She told Ellen: “I didn’t insure them, by the way,” she explained. “It was a client that insured them. It wasn’t me.”
Rihanna's legs
Rihanna has insured her legs for $1 million. Rihanna previously won the Venus Breeze‘s “Celebrity Legs of a Goddess” Award in 2007. After that, Rihanna insured her legs for $1 million. In her case, Gillette actually insured them.
Dolly Parton's breasts
Dolly Parton was rumored to have insured her breasts for $600,000. Although after diving into this more, the rumor is NOT TRUE. Dolly denied the rumor saying "Years ago, was it Betty Grable, or one of the great famous stars that was famous also for her legs? And at that time I said, 'Well maybe I should get my boobs insured since I’m famous for them,' but it was just a joke. I didn’t do that."
Mariah Carey's vocal cords and legs
Word is Mariah Carey has insured her vocal cords and legs allegedly for $70 million. Allegedly she did it during her Sweet Sweet Fantasy Tour in 2016. Word is she wanted to do it in the rare occasion something happened to her voice.
David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo's legs
The superstar soccer players have reportedly insured their legs for 195 million and 145 million. This would make sense since their careers depend on the use of their legs. When Beckham allegedly did it in 2006, it was considered the highest insurance policy for body parts at the time.
Julia Roberts' smile (allegedly)
Okay, this one may just be a rumor. But Julia Roberts had been rumored to insure her smile for $30 million. She did address it though and said
"I mean, if my smile was insured, there would be someone at my house on a nightly basis saying, 'You need to floss longer.'"
J Lo's butt
Jennifer Lopez allegedly had her butt insured for almost $30 million. She addressed the rumor however with James Corden. “I think there is a place in your homeland where you can insure certain things, parts of your body – seriously. I think that exists. I’ve heard that. Not here, I don’t think!”
