6 Celebrities Who Have Spent Exorbitant Amounts on Things for Their Homes

by

Watching celebrities flounder in wealth can provide endless entertainment and frustration for the masses. While you may be struggling to make a modest rent payment this month, Drake is dropping $50,000 a night on strippers. The next time you hear a celebrity try to argue that they are “just like you,” this list of their exorbitant “home goods” purchases may come to mind. Included here are a few celebrities who have gone a little overboard outfitting their homes.

Lady Gaga

Evidently Gaga has a bit of a fish fetish and enjoys having a vibrant aquarium inside her home. Recently dropping $60,000 to purchase 27 koi carp, Gaga had them imported directly from Japan. While Gaga may have been “born that way,” her spending habits have definitely had to develop with her income. [Read more…]

Hollywood Blah Blah, May 29, 2010

Sandra Bullock’s not letting her breakup with Jesse James Douchebag get in the way of her relationship with his three children. The Star says she managed to have a girl’s day out at The Beverly Hills Hotel with Jesse’s youngest girl, Sunny. Kind of tells a lot, doesn’t it? Jesse has said he wants to see the baby boy they adopted together, Louis Bardo, and Sandra will see Jesse’s other two kids, Jesse Jr. and Chandler. Oh and Jesse, just another reminder, above, of what you’re going to miss out on.

Charlie Sheen is possibly pleading guilty as part of a plea bargain in a domestic case, which stems from his being arrested for assaulting wife Brooke Mueller in Aspen. If he does plead guilty, he’ll spend up to 45 days in jail. The current charge is “felony menacing,” which carries a bigger penalty that might interfere with his $2 trillion dollars per episode day job as Charlie Harper in Two and a Half Men. For the record, good ol’ Charlie says he’s innocent. Sheen currently pays out over $125K/month to ex-wife Denise Richards and current wife Mueller.

So Alicia Keys is not only pregnant but engaged to rapper Swizz Beatz, aka Kasseem Dean. If you’re not sure who he is, according to People, he’s produced music for his fiancee — and inspired her — and worked with Jay-Z, Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez and Gwen Stefani. This player already has two kids from previous relationships. As in plural. So at this point I guess he’s heading towards having three baby mommas. But Alicia is looking forward to the experience of being a mother.

Wow Glen Beck, aren’t you so effing brave and clever, putting down a little girl on your stupid show? Seriously, you’re such a hater that you have to mock Malia Obama? What the eff did she ever do to you, moron? You want your family left alone but you pick on little girls? Do you feel all smart and powerful now? Were you dropped on your head a few too many times as a child?

Sex, Lies, and Denial – Hollywood Blah Blah, May 14, 2010

by

Wow, someone went a little crazy on the airbrushing of both the Entertainment Weekly cover of Sex and the City 2, and the poster.

Looks like they’re all in denial. Matt Lauer and wife Annette Roque deny they’ve split, with Lauer saying the claims are fiction. And Alexis Houston denies that she had an affair with Matt Lauer. Alexis is also a singer like step-sister Whitney Houston.

More denial, this time from Alyssa Milano, who’s show Romantically Challenged just canned by ABC. Sorry Alyssa; love you but tweeting that it didn’t “officially” get cancelled doesn’t make it true. While you’re waiting for another opportunity, please feel free to take off your clothes.

Yet more denial from the parents of 6-7 year-old girls whose viral video performance cover of Beyonce’s Single Ladies track is taking heat for sexualizing them. The parents try to explain away the performance in an Inside Edition interview. Sure, it’s easy to say there’s nothing wrong with it when you have to save face and hope the world doesn’t criticize you for not teaching your kids what’s appropriate and what’s way overboard. But then again, in a world where 17 year-old Miley Cyrus grinding and giving lapdances to 44 year-old men (albeit gay) is considered just fun by dad Billy Ray say it’s just fun, it’s no wonder this sort of thing goes on at an even younger age. In my useless opinion, this dance sequence is just as bad, if not worse, than putting makeup on little girls and entering them into beauty pageants. If you want them to learn dance moves to improve their skills, there are far less provocative and shocking and ways to do so – especially for kids so young. At this rate, give them a couple of years and they might be on Trash TV next. I’m not embedding the video here; you can see it at the link above (AmyGrindhouse.com)

Amy Adams should be welcoming her new baby into the world some time later this month. Hopefully Adams doesn’t have to worry about the baby appearing in videos for years.

According to singer M.I.A., baby-face Justin Bieber’s video is more violent than her Born Free video, which features nudity and graphic violence. Of course, she was just kidding.

Still more denial? Well, Tyra Banks has her own novel(s), so why not another celeb, comedian Damon Wayans, who is actually very talented? Wayans’ novel Red Hats is being released by Simon & Schuster.
