Michael Jackson's hair into Diamonds?

A diamond company in Chicago, Lifegem, has obtained bits of Michael Jackson's crispy hair from 1984 and is planning on turning it into carbon crystals which later can be polished into diamonds. Sound incredible? OR ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING?

This same company has reduced another famous person's hair into diamonds previously. That man being Beethoven. I feel like they have had a strange choice in people - what about someone living? What about Liz Taylor?

Click here for the article from NYdailynews.

Here's a quote from the website of LifeGem:

"Your LifeGem memorial will offer comfort and support when and where you need it, and provide a lasting memory that endures just as a diamond does. Forever."

I would post a picture, but this entire thing just creeps me out. A LOT.
