Each year Oscar nominees get a gift bag, more outrageous than the last, and this year is no different.

Can you guess what's in the expensive $200,000 bag this year? From Vampire Breast Lift, to toilet paper, and a 10-day first-class trip to Israel, the Academy left no stone unturned in making the goodie bag special for the Oscar nominees of 2016.

If you're wondering what a Vampire Breast Lift is, it's a "must have" in Hollywood which “uses blood-derived growth factors to revive rounder cleavage without implants”, and our best bet is it's only going in the female nominees' gift bags.

One would think celebrities can afford all of these presents, but The Academy explains, “Once again [the gift bag is] a blend of fabulous, fun and functional items meant to thrill and pamper those who may have everything money can buy but still savour the simple joy of a gift," reported The Independent.

But these gifts aren't just for all the nominees, they're only for those nominated in the main categories.

The gift bag has been put together by Distinctive Asset, an LA-based niche marketing company who claim, as per their website, that the Oscar presents are for "people who are donating their time free of charge to the high-profile event."
