Bob Dylan’s Love Letters Sell For $670K at Auction

By Silviya Y

A young Bob Dylan's collection of heartfelt and occasionally prescient personal letters to a high school sweetheart was purchased for approximately $670,000 at an auction by a renowned Portuguese bookshop. The record of 42 handwritten letters, comprising 150 pages, will be preserved by the Livraria Lello in Porto, Portugal, which calls itself 'the World's Most Beautiful Bookshop,' according to a statement from the auctioneer RR Auction. It will be made available for Dylan fans and scholars to study. While still going by Bob Zimmerman, Dylan, a native of Hibbing, Minnesota, penned the letters to Barbara Ann Hewitt between 1957 and 1959. They shed light on a time in his life about which little is known. Surprisingly, Dylan mentions changing his name and wishing to sell a million records in a few of the letters. The now 81-year-old Dylan, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2016, has sold around 125 million records over the course of his career.

It appears Lil Nas X has been tattooed! The hip-hop artist shared a photo of his first tattoo on social media. He posted a carousel of the procedure on Instagram along with the caption, "Juh got my first tattoo." In the first image, a tattoo artist is hunched over Nas' wrist as his face is writhing in agony while wearing a head-to-toe Dior suit. However, in later pictures, he flashes his wrist to the camera from different angles and appears to be pretty satisfied with the outcome. Although some fans were perplexed in the comments section as to what the five-pointed symbol stands for, it is evidently significant to the rapper as he also utilized it on the single artwork for 2021's 'Montero (Call Me By Your Name)'. Some thought it was a representation of Aries, Lil Nas X’s astrological sign while thers joked that it looked like an IUD.
