John Oliver has re-acquired the jock strap worn by Russell Crowe in the 2005 film "Cinderella Man," according to the Hollywood Reporter. This marks the third time the undergarment has been in Oliver's possession.
The item holds significance as a piece of memorabilia from Crowe's performance in the boxing drama. Oliver, the host of HBO's "Last Week Tonight," has apparently had a history with this particular artifact, having owned it twice before.
Details about how Oliver came to own the jock strap initially, why he no longer possessed it between acquisitions, or the circumstances of this latest purchase were not provided in available reports. The nature of Oliver's connection to the garment remains unclear from the reporting.
