Although some people may think the decision to sell the bizarre accessory is the result of negative buzz, she thinks it's quite the opposite.

She added, "It’s an incredible response to that hat really, I’m glad it provoked so much conversation." Now the question is, we wonder how much it'll fetch on eBay? Hmmm...
