Pop icon Michael Jackson's famous white glove has sold for more than 85,000 pounds at an auction in Texas.

The singer wore the crystal-studded glove many times on stage and in music videos of his popular songs including Billie Jean. The piece was also a part of Jackson's stage-wear during the Bad Tour (1987-1989).

According to The Sun, the anonymous buyer received a letter confirming the piece was donated to UNICEF in 1998, alongside an envelope from the MJJ production company founded by Jackson.

I felt one glove was cool. Wearing two seemed so ordinary, Jackson had said about the glove.

It was reported last week, Jackson once owned alligators that died in a fire in the zoo of Tiger King documentary-series subject Joe Exotic.
