White House crasher extraordinaire Michaele Salahi is going to auction off the red sari she wore when she and her husband Tareq Salahi allegedly crashed a state dinner last November.
Michaele told the Associated Press that she plans to put the dress up for bid around the time the scandal is addressed on the new Bravo reality show, The Real Housewives of D.C.
The proceeds from the auction will go to victims of the Haitian earthquake and people with multiple sclerosis, Michaele said.
