9 - Rosie Reid ($13,300)
"It was horrible... I felt nervous
and scared," eighteen-year-old Rosie Reid told News of the World after
she sold her virginity to a 44-year-old male engineer. Reid's girlfriend
waited outside the hotel room where Reid met the highest bidder, and
cried with Reid after the deed was done. Reid came up with the idea as
she graduated university with a massive amount of debt.
8 - Alina Percea ($14,000)
Romanian Alina Percea was eighteen
when she sold her virginity to a 45-year-old businessman from Italy—but
according to her, she enjoyed it. "We spoke in English as I can't speak
Italian and he can't speak Romanian. He paid me a lot of compliments
throughout the day, and he was very funny and charming. We got on very
well, and I was pleased he'd won," she said afterward. She was flown to
Venice and put up in a luxury hotel during their brief affair, and
underwent two separate medical examinations to prove that she was a
virgin beforehand.
7 - Rebecca Bernardo ($35,000)
Rebecca announced that she was
auctioning off her virginity in a Youtube video-- allegedly, so she
could pay off her mother's medical expenses. She tried to make money
from a normal job before she began accepting bids, but she couldn't make
enough. “There comes a time when you have to make decisions to get what
you want. You have to be strong,” Rebecca told the News
6 - Cathy Cobblerson ($100,000)
As far as anyone can tell, the
tale of Cathy Cobblerson was a massive hoax-- but it's also one of the
earliest reports of such a story. Allegedly, Cobblerson sold her
virginity for $100,000 to pay off her credit card debts. The article was
released by Weekly World News, which reported that Noah's arc had been
discovered in Iraq in the same issue.
Catarina Migliorini's virginity's
first buyer, a wealthy Japanese businessman, backed out for unknown
reasons. Her second auction was put on hold as well-- because Migliorini
had to weigh a marriage proposal from a wealthy Arab millionaire who
she calls a "progressive Muslim". "He shows himself to be very
romantic," she has said. "He speaks 11 languages. He's between 35 [and]
40 years old. He's a handsome and very intelligent man...he lives in a
beautiful mansion that he shows through the webcam." Migliorini's
journey to sell her virginity was the subject of a documentary called Virgins Wanted.
Medical student Hanna Kern was
dubbed "The Virgin Whore" after she offered her virginity up for
sale—but she ended up backing out last minute. 'With the blessings of my
management and the high bidders, I have decided to put a stop to this
kerfuffle (to describe it nicely) and return my focus to my medical
training,' she blogged. "I still do possess some spitefully strong
beliefs about virginity, prostitution, and a woman's right to do as she
damned pleases, but school is my first priority (as it has been for my
entire life)."
This Peruvian model put her
virginity up for auction as her country faced economic downturn, with
the hopes that it would get her family out of poverty. It caused outrage
in the traditionally Catholic country, and Yataco was accused of
creating the ad she posted as a publicity stunt.
Italian model and Big Brother
Italy star Raffaella Fico put her virginity up for sale when she was 20,
hoping to fund acting classes and the purchase of a house. Fico swore
that she had never had a boyfriend, and promised she'd go through with
the transaction even if she wasn't interested in her virginity's buyer.
"If I don't like him, I'll just have a glass of wine and forget about
it," she said.

4 - Elizabeth Raine ($801,000)
3 - Graciela Yataco ($1.3 Million)
2 - Raffaella Fico ($1.8 Million)
1 - Natalie Dylan ($3.8 Million)
Natalie Dylan went on Howard Stern
to announce bidding on her virginity at the Moonlite Bunny Ranch, an
infamous brothel. “I’ve been congratulated for my ‘entrepreneurial
gumption,’ as one CEO of a Fortune 500 company put it,” Dylan has said.
