The ESPY Awards were created by ESPN in 1993 and are presented for Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly. It gathers top celebrities from sports and entertainment to commemorate the past year in sports by recognizing major sports achievements, reliving unforgettable moments and saluting the leading performers and performances. But, another part of the awards that is stealing limelight is the gift bag.
The ESPY VIP gift bag celebrates the greatest in sports by giving them the greatest. The amazing gift bag is jam packed with the latest in fashion, technology, and luxury. The gift bag, given to presenters and nominees will feature a variety of non-traditional goods worth more than $25,000 At that price it better be luxury for all those already super rich celebrities and sports stars.

The luxurious goods of the gift bag
|
The gift bag can seen at all events, from small birthday parties where you receive chewing gum and whistles, to the Oscars where actors receive diamond necklaces. Yet, the ESPY has outdone them all by, making it one of the most expensive gift bags available for celebrities. Matthew Perry, the host for the ESPY awards, will be receiving $25,000 worth of luxurious products for being- himself. How nice to be rich and famous and have people give you more things because your so rich and famous. The idea of the gift bag is to entice big name celebrities to attend certain events like charities, fundraisers, and award shows.

The gift bag is the ultimate opportunity for companies to reach the clientele so aggressively sought after for their influence on consumer spending -- the stars! The ESPY Awards are unique in that it combines something nothing else does: the biggest names in sports with the biggest names in Hollywood. It is a marketing genius plan for the companies providing all these goods because by providing all these products for free, in return they save millions of dollars by gaining free advertising.
The items that were included in the ESPY gift bag were Lasik eye surgery, A one-year subscription to Blockbuster, State-of-the-art professional teeth whitening, Gift includes an Endermologie treatment, which temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite, "MVP" Treatment: Hot towel shave, full body massage, haircut and tons more.

The ESPY awards outdid themselves this year with having the most expensive gift bag worth $25,000, attracting sports stars, and having the biggest singing group, Destiny's Child perform one of their last televised acts before heading in separate directions. Who ever is in charge of the ESPY awards should get a bonus because they have taken a small award ceremony and blown up to the respectability of the Oscars. Next year, I'm tuning into the ESPY awards. So, I can see what's in the gift bag!
