Bhad Bhabie is celebrating his 18th birthday on Friday in a very unique way: selling his “cash me outside” meme at an NFT auction.
Advertising panel reports that the sale, entitled “ETH Me Outside: A Cash Me Outside NFT” will include an exclusive set of digital icons derived from the moment it happened in Dr. Phil. The auction will contain 20 NFTS with original works based on the meme, his rise to fame, his music and more, with filmmakers, visual artists, photographers, music producers and fashion designers contributing to the project. These creatives are people who have worked with Danielle Bregoli before or people she decided to contribute to.
Bregoli’s first NFTs will hit Opensea on Friday, followed by a fall on March 29 in Rarible and then a fall on March 31 in Zora. Some of the contributing artists include Nick Goosen and David Spade, Glassface, Oseanworld, Pastelae, Harriet Blend, Goodboyshady, Paola Pinna, Indietrent, Super Trip 64, producer Pliznaya, among others.
With the sale of the NFT comes ownership of the “cash me outside” meme, a personalized video of the transfer from the rapper’s sale to the buy, a 16-bar verse from Bregoli and more.
Earlier this week, Bregoli addressed the meme in a four-minute clip that she posted on her YouTube channel, where she criticized the origins of the meme and denounced Dr. Phil. “My problem with the meme has always been that people could only see half the story,” she said. “For years, I didn’t even want to talk about it. People said that and I was like, ‘Okay, fine.’ ”
She ended the video with a nod to the NFT sale. “I want to let this go, I want to let it flourish on its own. The next bitch can have it – do what they want with it. There will be an owner of this shit going forward, but it certainly won’t be me. “
