In case you haven’t got enough of Pharrell’s hat…

Pharrell’s hat will be on display at Washington D.C.’s Newseum, now who’s “Happy” about that? As if Pharrell, alone isn’t famous enough. Ever since his hat made an appearance at this year’s 2014 Grammy Awards, the hat’s popularity has grown increasingly. Arby’s bought that hat for $44,100 and donated the money to a children’s charity. The fast food chain announced that the hat, a Vivienne Westwood design, would be on display in D.C. from August 22 to August 26. Scott Williams, Senior Vice President of marketing at the Newseum told the Washington Post that Pharrell’s hat was a good addition to the Newseum.

 “Pharrell’s hat is a great addition to the Newseum and will serve as a great example of the impact of social media today.”

Check out the tweet Arby’s shared yesterday about the new addition to the Newseum.
