JENNIFER ANISTON AND COURTENEY COX WANT TO BUY MATTHEW PERRY’S HOUSE

Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox are teaming up to buy the $6 million home in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles where their Friends costar, Matthew Perry died. According to an insider, the gals know that Matthew loved the house and don’t want it turned into an Airbnb for morbid looky-loos, because Matthew drowned in the pool. Since money is no object, they’re hoping to purchase the house, redo the pool and refurbish the outside. Both girls have made renovating homes their side hustle, so this could be a lucrative project – they plan to donate any profits to the foundation in Matthew’s name. Since pulling permits from the city can be cumbersome, Jen and Courteney are trying to buy the home from Matthew’s estate ASAP so they can start the process. Smart move – the home has already been added to one of those celebrity bus tours and tourists have been seen snapping photos of the property.

Home House Julian Lennon Real Estate

JULIAN LENNON: THERE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME

Julian Lennon is wallowing in regret. According to a friend, the 59-year-old son (can you believe it?) of the late Beatle John was delighted to make a nice profit when he recently sold his Hollywood Hills home. But no sooner had the ink dried on the escrow papers, than Julian decided he really MISSED his old home! He knew the buyer purchased the modern house as an investment and planned to lease it. Julian reached out to the new buyer and negotiated to lease it himself. He’s still looking for a new place to buy, but in the meantime he’s happy to be back home.

House Paris Jackson Real Estate

PARIS JACKSON SAYS NO THANKS TO HOLLYWOOD MCMANSIONS

Paris Jackson just bought herself a new house in the Hollywood Hills and it couldn’t be more appropriate. She may be one of the wealthiest young women in Hollywood, but you wouldn’t guess it by her purchase. Paris considers herself to be a modern-day hippie so she avoided the gaudy McMansions and acquired an upscale wood and stone cabin for 3.8 million. It’s a comparatively modest 3000 sq ft, with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. (No indulgent walk-in closets) She loves the fact that it has an art studio and a music studio, plus a free-form saltwater pool. She probably isn’t at all impressed that Rock Hudson once lived there. (note the rustic bathroom)

Beauty Salon Ben Affleck Closet Favorite Things House Jennifer Lopez

OUR TWO FAVORITE ROOMS IN THE NEW AFFLECK/LOPEZ HOUSE

While Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck are on their Italian honeymoon (with their kids, no less!) work has begun on the new 60 million dollar 29,000 sq ft Beverly Hills house they bought before they left. They kept the purchase a big secret and nobody knows exactly what they paid for it, but billionaire James Packer once owned it. You already know it has 7 bedrooms and everything else a human could want, but after checking out the photos we picked out the two rooms we love most. The first is the amazingly well-equipped beauty salon that will keep the blended families looking their best. Sigh. Drool. The second desirable room also made us dizzy with envy- it’s the closet – and it looks like an expensive boutique. Now THAT’S breathtaking luxury…

Ben Affleck House Jennifer Lopez Real Estate

JENNIFER AND BEN BOUGHT A HOUSE TOGETHER

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez just made an enormous investment in their future- they purchased a $50 million dollar mansion in Bel-Air with 17 bathrooms together! The sprawling 10 bedroom (almost 20,000 sq ft) house will be just the right size to blend the two families. Jennifer has two children from her previous marriage, and we imagine her mother and sister will be frequent visitors. Ben’s three children will certainly have rooms of their own, along with various grandparents. (It has already been established that the kids get along nicely) The house features a magnificent “hers” closet with makeup table, but there’s no sense showing a photo because Ben and Jennifer will no doubt remodel the entire place.

House Kanye West Kim Kardashian

HOW DOES KIM KARDASHIAN FEEL ABOUT KANYE LIVING ACROSS THE STREET?

It works for Adele. She bought a house across the street from her lavish Hidden Valley home specifically for her ex-husband Simon Konecki to occupy, so he will be close to their son Angelo, 9. It helps that Adele and Simon are still good friends. We wonder if Kim Kardashian KNEW beforehand that HER ex Kanye West planned to buy a home across from the mansion they once shared in Hidden Hills. He was SO determined to get the house that he paid far over the asking price. Keep in mind, Kanye’s Malibu home is only 30 minutes away. If Kim DIDN’T know about the purchase in advance, she must be freaked out, thinking “was this fueled by good intentions or STALKING?” Will Kanye document her comings and goings and with whom? If she DID consult with Kanye before the purchase, we underestimated Kim’s desire for coparenting and her comfort level with Kanye.

FALL IN LOVE WITH TRAVIS SCOTT’S HOUSE

Who doesn’t love looking at real estate? In all our HGTV dreams we never saw a house quite like the one that rapper Travis Scott just purchased for 23.5 million – and worth every penny. This deliciously modern home in Brentwood features 10,000 sq ft of outdoor space, including a fruit orchard, kaleidoscopic views – and just look at that pool! The 16,700 sq ft three story interior has 7 bedrooms, 11 baths, and don’t forget the 20 car garage. Travis, 28, shares a daughter with Kylie Jenner, but they are a couple no longer. Wonder who will occupy those seven bedrooms!

For a complete eyeful (bigger and better photos) of this spectacular residence, visit the Dirt section of Variety: https://www.dirt.com/entertainers/musicians/travis-scott-house-brentwood-1203325267/

House Kesha Real Estate

KESHA WILL BE ISOLATING IN STYLE

Kesha, 33, must be doing something right – she just signed on the dotted line to purchase a very comfortable new house in Mar Vista – strange timing, but maybe she got a good deal. She paid five million dollars for a modern 5,942 sq ft home with 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, plus a guest house and pool. Our favorite feature is the gigantic movie screen over the guest house/garage. Check out the entire house in the Dirt real estate section in Variety. Sweet to imagine watching movies on the patio next summer…

Charity Forrest Gump Gary Sinise House Veterans

GARY SINISE IS HELPING SEVERELY WOUNDED VETERANS

#garysinise #janetcharlton

Today actor Gary Sinise became a hero in our eyes. We learned about his fund-raising work for “Building Homes For Heroes.” Now here’s a cause that really MEANS something. They build customized “smart homes” for severely wounded veterans – particularly multiple amputees. They just handed the keys to a new house in Temecula to Afghanistan veteran Cpl. Juan Dominguez, a triple amputee. The organization aims to build a home for EVERY multiple amputee veteran so they can resume their lives. He comes from a military family and after Gary played a veteran who lost both legs in “Forrest Gump”, he got involved with veterans causes. This particular cause (they’ve completed almost 20 homes) is so genuine and heart-wrenching that we have to admire Gary and we urge you to think about contributing.

Cancelled Family House Hugh Laurie

AFTER EIGHT YEARS , HUGH LAURIE IS GOING HOME

Now that the Fox series is ending in May, “House“ doc Hugh Laurie, 52, is about to become reacquainted with his family. Since 2004, Hugh has been living for at least nine months a year in Los Angeles while his wife Jo and their 3 children remained in the UK. Several times they considered moving to LA, but the children loved their school and they didn’t know how long the show would survive. After eight years of incredible popularity, daddy became the highest paid actor in a drama, pulling in $700,000 a week. Soon, he’s going home. Hopefully, living apart is not the reason the 23 year marriage has been a success.
