The American public idolizes celebrities for various reasons: fame, money, power, and influence, just to name a few. We emulate their style in many ways, but with some celebs frequenting their nearby hobby shop to indulge in their clothing collection, will we start following this trend too? Below are some famous celebrities and their unique acquisition interests.

Rod Stewart is known for his variety of model trains. Keifer Sutherland of the TV show “24” collects Gibson guitars. He now owns over 38 guitars, which he keeps in his studio. Due to his interest in these guitars, Gibson made a personal guitar for Sutherland himself. The only other celebrities with their own personal guitars include Robby Krieger and Slash.

A more interesting hobby shop patron is Quentin Tarantino, who has TV show-themed board games. If you see Tarantino, you can also find Nicole Kidman looking at the Judean coin cabinet. Both celebrities are known to be very diligent in their collecting habits. Apart from them, you can find Angelina Jolie, who constantly improves her butterfly knife skills with her collection of knives.

Other celebrities collect much more unusual items. Reese Witherspoon has an assemblage of vintage bedding, dating back to her eccentric upbringing in New Orleans, Louisiana. Brad Pitt spends much of his extra money on metal art, which he collects as he travels the world for his work. He even spent nearly $1,000,000 on a piece of art while visiting Switzerland. One of the most eccentric collectors is Tom Hanks, known for acquiring authentic typewriters from around the world and traveling with them in times of intellectual and creative curiosity.

The two most unusual celebrity collectors include Claudia Schiffer and Johnny Depp. Schiffer has always had a fondness for insects, which you can tell the moment you walk into her house. Her artwork includes images of insects, and even a piece that is made up of insect parts. Often her clothing even reflects her passion for insects, and more specifically spiders of all kinds. The most notorious celebrity with this interest of all time has to be Johnny Depp. Depp is known to collect lamps, decorative furniture and a pigeon skeleton at a hobby shop in Paris, France.

Regardless of your personal interest, if you decide to patronize a hobby shop, there’s a good chance you’ll be arguing over a piece with someone famous. Whether it’s antiques, jewelry, or bugs, people across the country (and around the world) have an interest in the most outrageous objects. When you have free time, visit a hobby store. You may find a new interest and a new celebrity friend!
