Former porn star Mia Khalifa is auctioning off her “infamous” glasses to help victims of the catastrophic blast in Beirut, saying she’s “trying to make a positive difference” as her native Lebanon continues to recover one week later.

The top bid for Khalifa’s iconic black glasses had reached $100,000 as of midday Tuesday, some four days after the ex-porn star posted a link to her eBay listing on Instagram and asked those who were not interested in her personal items to donate to the Lebanese Red Cross instead.

“F–k it, there are no rules anymore,” Khalifa, 27, wrote on Instagram. “Anything for my country?”

The demand for Khalifa’s specs propelled bids to reach $11,400 in just six hours, she said.

Khalifa posted a new image Monday highlighting the glasses, which have generated 190 bids. The auction is set to end Sunday afternoon, according to the listing.

“The novelty glasses are the best prop,” Khalifa wrote. “I will sign them (if you want), and take one last polaroid wearing them before sending them off to their new home!!!”

The glasses are “used & abused,” the listing states, adding that Khalifa plans to livestream the final hours of the auction on a platform yet to be announced.

“Also taking suggestions for prizes to add,” the listing continues. “Let’s get wild and raise a s–t ton of money for the Lebanese people.”

All of the proceeds from Khalifa’s auction will go to the Lebanese Red Cross — the country’s “most valuable asset at this time of crisis,” she said.

At least 220 people were killed and about 6,000 others were hurt in Beirut on Aug. 4 when thousands of tons of ammonium nitrate exploded in the city’s port, where it had been stored for more than six years.

Lebanon’s health minister said Monday that the country’s “whole government” has resigned in the wake of the massive explosion, which Khalifa noted Monday on Instagram.

“Parliament is next,” the former adult entertainer wrote. “By choice or by force, either way, Lebanon has had enough while simultaneously having NOTHING.”
