New "it" girl Katherine Heigl is hoping to ditch her 2,400 square foot "starter house" in Los Feliz for $1.75 million, according to the listing posted recently. Katherine's career is buzzing righ now. She's blonde, beautiful, down to earth, always speaks her mind, and she's moving up in the world and moving on from her "humble" beginnings. Her current 1935 home is a remodeled contemporary structure with an open floor plan. Glass walls encase the three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, offering breathtaking views of both cityscape and the ocean. The master bedroom has French doors that lead to a balcony, and the master bathroom comes complete with an oversized stone steam shower. We don't know just where Katherine will relocate, but now that she's hit the big time with starring roles in Grey's Anatomy, Knocked Up, and 27 Dresses, maybe this dream girl just needs space for a bigger wardrobe...

Christie Brinkley's estranged husband Peter Cook has quite a bit of explaining to do. Cook's very public affair with Diana Bianchi began in 2004 when Bianchi just hit legal and was hired to type up magazine articles for $20,000, among other throws of cash for hanky panky totaling over $300,000.

But what came as what may be considered the biggest shocker is that for the last half of the Brinkley-Cook marriage, the couple relied almost exclusively on porn to generate flames. A teary-eyed Cook acknowledged that he spent $3,000 on porn websites in 2005 but as some sort of sanction for sympathy, he maintained that he hasn't accessed the websites since his split from the supermodel and has never surfed the sites in the presence of the baby Brinkleys.

We don't deem this whole quagmire to be too healthy. All parties involved, please seek treatment immediately.

Everyone knows that diamonds are forever, but what you might not know is that they can turn back the clock on your face. Those seeking the last word in luxury anti-aging skincare need look no further than the Diamond Lift Facial at The Townhouse Spa. "You don't just wear them anymore," says Townhouse Spa owner, Jamie Ahn. "Now you can apply them to your face,"

The Diamond Facial is a result-oriented anti-aging procedure that combines granulated diamonds and bright light therapy to bring instant plumpness and a bling-worthy glow to the skin. To begin, skin is prepped with a gentle cleanser rich in natural enzymes and antioxidants. A toner is then applied to help hydrate and prepare the skin to absorb the diamond powder. The diamonds are gently applied and the face is steamed, resulting in a deep exfoliation. After the oh-so-luxurious diamond scrub, an apple collagen serum is softly massaged into the skin to brighten, lift, and moisturize... More >> ..

At a time when over 50% of marriages end in bitter divorce, it's nice to see an ex looking out for his ex-fiancé best interests. That is the case of Bravo's new reality TV show, "Date My Ex". We first met Jo De La Rosa and Slade Smiley from The Real Housewives of The OC. The show picks up where Real Housewives left off - with Jo running around Los Angeles looking for love and trying to start a career as a singer. Slade has become her business manager and we also see Slade helping his ex find true love with another man. Is this possible? Can Slade put his past behind with Jo and just be a true friend?
In the first episode we see the first of 4 eligible bachelors move into Slade's house. Already, we see Slade feeling threatened by David who has taken Jo on a helicopter ride for their date as Slade secretly watched them. It appears Slade knows Jo pretty well since David was also the man Jo chose to stay in the house... More >> ..

Kimora Lee Simons, CEO of Baby Phat, and hip-hop mogul Russell Simmon, who were married in 1998, have finalized their divorce after a two-year being separation. Kimora Lee has obtained sole custody of daughters Ming, 8, and Aoki, 5. Russell was awarded time with the girls one week of every eight, plus extra time for summer vacations and holidays. He has been ordered to pay Simons $480,000 per year in child support, in addition to $20,000 per child per year until the girls turn 19 1/2. Finally, he's required to buy or lease a car valued at $60,000 or more once every 24 months to satisfy the girls' transportation needs. While many would be bitter when faced with demands involving such extreme sums, Russell doesn't appear too bothered. "Regarding the money, my kids live a tremendous life. They do have lots of security, nannies, educators, special programs, travel, chefs, on and on. Their mother manages all of those luxuries and I'm happy to provide for that," he stated... More >> ..

Canseco gets called out trying to steal home.


Even the rich and famous are falling victim to the recent U.S. housing crisis. Former baseball superstar turned steroid scandal Jose Canseco has announced that his 7,500 square foot mansion is in foreclosure. Canseco owes a reported $2.5 million on the four bedroom, six bath house located in the Los Angeles suburb of Encino. He told Inside Edition that "it didn't make financial sense to keep paying a mortgage on a home that was basically owned by someone else." I'm guessing that Canseco's new book about steroid use in the majors didn't hit a home run at the bookstores. Maybe he can find solace in knowing his two ex-wives are happy, each having received somewhere between $7 and $8 million in their divorce settlements. I wonder who's on deck to marry Canseco next.

At Lola’s one of the most difficult things to do is to somehow choose one of the distinctive drinks from the extensive martini menu. With options like the Los Angeles Lakers Purple Haze Martini and the strangely-titled, yet tempting Garlic Mashed Potatoes Martini, the alcoholic in you will have an extremely hard time picking its personal favorite, and will be hard-pressed to stop at just one drink.

Besides having quite possibly the largest martini selection in the city, Lola’s also doesn’t skimp on garnish. The Absolutely Watermelon martini boasts a fresh watermelon wedge submerged in the glass, and the signature Apple Martini includes a razor-thin green apple slice. Both the Oceans 11 and Fantasy Island martinis are garnished with floating, edible flowers (though cute, the flowers should only be eaten if you’re into that sorta thing).

With over 50 uniquely inventive drinks to choose from, dozens of visits are required to this L... More >> ..

If you've been on any sort of public transportation in New York recently, we're almost positive you've seen advertisements plastered everywhere for Bravo's new reality series Date My Ex. The show, featuring everyone's favorite love-to-hate-'em twosome, Jo De La Rosa and Slade Smiley premiered on Monday, July 21.

Date My Ex follows Jo as she takes on L.A. in pursuit of a record deal sprinkled with some quality drama along the way. As she tires away at her glamorous career, her friends, in an act of sheer brilliance, come up with a way of helping her in her less-than-exciting love life by recruiting her ex-fiance, Slade, to help weed out potential suitors for Jo to date.

Competing for Jo's affection, a group of men including a real estate agent, a talent agent, a personal trainer, and a nutrition salesman shack up with Slade for proper assessment. As the men vie for Jo, Slade weeds out the contenders that don't make the cut but it's Jo that gets to make the final OK and veto her ex's decision if need be... More >> ..

Hailed as the most powerful and expensive Lamborghini ever built (and for good reason), the Lamborghini Reventon walked away with the award for World's Most Beautiful Automobile 2007 after being introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Named for the bull that killed toreador Felix Guzman in 1943 and designed to look like a jet fighter, the Reventon is basically the ultimate Murcielago in all respects, including price. Only 20 Reventons have been built and all flew off the shelves the night of the auto show.

At a top speed of 211 mph, the beast goes from 0 to 62 in 3.4 seconds, which is faster than it takes you to say Lamborghini Reventon. The epic racer boasts "completely customizable" displays, a mid-mounted 6.5-liter V12 engine that's been up-rated for 650 horsepower, and is the company's first vehicle with a g-force meter. The Lambos went for slick $1.4 million a piece, marking its status as the most expensive new vehicle to make a U... More >> ..

The 62-year-old heiress that gave us the glorious Tori Spelling and then a handful of scandalous family arguments is running around LA with displays of opulence like never before. Candy Spelling just marked her territory on the two top floors of the Century City residential tower for a record $47 million.

But this is not Candy Cane's first run with the big dogs. She is moving out of the biggest home in LA County. Nicknamed "The Manor," Candy's current abode boasts 123 rooms, 16 bathrooms, a doll museum, a gift wrapping room, and a bowling alley. But how can she honestly complain? Her new home will have two fireplaces, a dining room for 25, a massage room, and a damn conservatory complete with a rose garden. Bitchin'.

Looking for a banging Bar Mitzvah or a rockin' wedding reception? Got six million dollars? If you do, look no further than rock legends, The Eagles. They set the bar on the most expensive private musical performance back in 2003. For six million dollars, The Eagles played one song, "Hotel California," at a private party in Manhattan. This equates to a paycheck of just under a million dollars per minute.

Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones trail just behind The Eagles. In 2002, Texan investor, David Bonderman, hired the Stones for his 6oth birthday in Las Vegas. They charged $7 million for an hour set.

Celine Dion tops out at number three. Her bill comes to 6.5 million for a private performance that she does two or three times a year.

Elton John charges around $4 million for his private sets. Just making the top five, Christina Aguilera performed for $3.6 million in 2005 at the wedding of Russian banker and industrialist, Andrei Melnichenko and Miss Yugoslavia, Aleksandra Kokotovic... More >> ..

We all love to watch the fascinating love life's of all those reality stars, Bravo brings us yet another reality dating series, Date My Ex: Jo and Slade, which premiered at 9 p.m. Monday the 21st, which features Slade Smiley and his ex wife Jo Della Rosa from The Real Housewives of Orange County. Generous souls came out in droves to help their own exes find true love at a related preview party, aptly called Recycle Your Ex, which was held at the very hip Lumen Lounge in Chicago. There was a tangible buzz in the room as copious cocktails were served to the crowd of sexy singles. Throughout the night attendees placed bids to win a date at a posh restaurant with one of several bangin' babes offered up to auction by their well-intentioned ex boyfriends, all for charity of course. At the end of the night, the rowdy group of partyers had raised almost $5,000 for the NRDC. With the top lady hitting $1,500

If irony were the name of the game, Brangelina would send their newborn twins to an orphanage somewhere in the Sudan, giving back to the country that has supplied the pair with their favorite import: children. Amidst the various rumours and stories surrounding false birthdates and hospital locations, Angelina gave birth to twins in Nice, France on July 14th. The world's favorite unmarried lovers have produced a power couple of their own, already targeted by the media for a hefty price.

A boy Knox, weighing 5.01 pounds, and girl Vivienne, weighing 5.0 pounds, arrived in style via Caesarean section at Lenval hospital in the French Riviera. According to reports from the couple's chatty doctor, Pitt snipped the umbilical cords while Angelina, delirious from an epidural, laughed and joked as her newest children joined the legion of Jolie-Pitts. Angelina, 33, is still at the hospital under European hospital orders, which keep new mothers on bed rest for a bit longer than their American counterparts... More >> ..

This past Thursday, The Date My Ex premiere party went off at the swanky venue Opera in Los Angeles. In attendance were the hosts of the new show, Jo and Slade, along with a smattering of other Bravo reality stars of today, and our favorites of seasons past.

The premise of the event, just like the "Date My Ex" launch events in New York and Chicago, consisted of some of the cities finest girls being offered up in an auction by their respective ex's with all proceeds going to charity. Let me tell you, the LA girls were one of the best line-ups I have ever seen. By the end of the night, all of the lucky girls walked away with a new date in hand, and a couple girls even got a cherry on top: a contract to be on the upcoming season of Millionaire Matchmaker. How they climb up the ranks of reality TV so quick!

The event was well attended, the champagne was flowing, and the crowd was very attractive keeping with the Los Angeles drunk-orexic diet indulging in mass amounts patron and vodka, with a plenty of the delicious appetizers on the side to whet their appetite... More >> ..

Athletes live double lives. At the end of the day, most of their money comes not from scoring a goal, shooting a basket, or tapping in a putt. Although fame does come from playing the game and playing it damn well, ads are what rake in the money.

Tiger Woods played his all-time best this year and raked in an easy $115 million. Do you need a refresher as to just how much $115 million is? It's enough to buy 450 Bentleys, 30 million cups of Starbucks, or put nearly 1,000 kids through four years of college.

Tiger was the top-earning athlete last year, but $90 million of his earnings came from endorsements, compared to the $25 million from his actual salary. David Beckham was this year's distant second, raking in a total $50 million, and $36 of that from endorsements. We reckon an Armani's underwear campaign just can't pay off Posh Spice's bills quite like a Tiger could.
