Arby's Bought Pharrell's Grammy Hat for $44,000 (@pharrell)



The hat Pharrell debuted at the Grammy Awards, which has been the subject of countless jokes and memes, is now in the possession of fast food chain Arby's. Why? Because it also resembles the brand's logo.


The restaurant chain announced Sunday it paid $44,100 at an eBay auction for the Vivienne Westwood hat. The earnings will support the Grammy-winning musician's charity From One Hand to Another.


Pharrell tweeted a thank you to the buyer on Sunday, to which Arby's replied: "You're welcome. We're HAPPY to support a great cause and get our hat back."
