Jennifer Aniston is selling her Ron Burgundy-inspired LA home for $42 million

Posted: 19 Feb 2011 05:11 AM PST

Last year around this time, Jennifer Aniston threw on a pair of yoga pants and did some stretchy poses for Architectural Digest as they tried to take photos of her remodeled Beverly Hills home. These are the photos from the shoot. She bought the home in 2006, and spent two years renovating it until it was a dark, womb-like space full of purples, rock walls, shag carpets and wood. While some people love that, I thought the place looked kind of dated, rather 1970s, Ron Burgundy-inspired. Anyway, People Magazine is announcing that Aniston is selling her dark little castle. Official reason: because she wants to "simplify". Real reason: because the whole place reeks of booze, reefer, John Mayer spooge and eau d'Chelsea Handler vom. Oh, and she bought the place in 2006 for $13.5 million and now she's selling it for $42 million! In this market?!?

Jennifer Aniston is ready to “simplify” her life – and is getting started by quietly putting her Beverly Hills home on sale to the tune of $42 million.

The actress, who just celebrated her 42nd birthday, told PEOPLE recently that despite dedicating more than two years of her life to renovating the Zen-influenced retreat, she feels the need to let go of it.

But window shoppers beware: The home will not be listed officially and only an elite group of realtors will have access to the property, real estate sources tell PEOPLE. The sources confirmed the selling price.

The Just Go with It star bought the home she calls “Ohana” – a reference to the Hawaiian idea of extended family – for $13.5 million in 2006. She and her team tore it apart and spent more than two years renovating it, and she moved in just before her 40th birthday in 2009.

Built on a hillside in 1970 with sweeping views of Los Angeles, Aniston told Architectural Digest the single-level home feels “like a hug” and “vibrates with the love that created it.”

So why does she want to move? Her epiphany came, she says, in a moment where she woke up in London and thought, “my life felt really cluttered.”

“I couldn’t sleep and I sort of had one of those moments where I went, I really need to simplify,” PEOPLE’s recent cover girl said. “My life needs to be simplified and clear out the clutter. And along with that thought came, ‘I should sell my house.’ … I had the realization that this is just too much for me. I’m not this person.”

Though Aniston has another smaller home in L.A., she may end up living far, far away from Beverly Hills. “I don’t know, I’m looking for little spots in New York City to go back home,” she said. “There are all sorts of things that are going to be happening in the near future so I’m excited. I don’t know what they are, but that’s the fun part.”

Well, I guess we should give Aniston a slow clap. She never changes anything, so it's good to see she's going to give up her Den of Tequila (for a nearly $30 million mark-up). Do you think she'll ever really move to New York? She has plenty of money, so I wouldn't be shocked if she kept a place in LA, and one in NYC. Even though she's giving up this Beverly Hills home, I think she still owns at least one other property in LA too.

For whatever reason, I don't see her in NYC. I think she should buy a beach house. She belongs at the beach, right? She should invest in a Malibu property.

Prince Harry wants to propose to Chelsy Davy after his brother’s wedding

Posted: 18 Feb 2011 10:41 AM PST

fp_1245671_barm_prince_harry_13_09_13

I don't know why we have so much royal news today. First we had the story about Kate Middleton and Camilla Parker Bowles at each other's throats, and now this. This sad news will likely cause several ginger-fetishists (Michael K) to throw themselves into the pit of despair. According to Star Magazine (caveat, caveat), Prince Harry wants to marry on-again girlfriend Chelsy Davy. You see, I don't really think that was what Chelsy was aiming for. I think she just wanted to be invited to the wedding, and maybe got some hot ginger Best Man action. Chelsy's not in it for the ring:

Prince William isn't the only marriage-minded young royal. Back-on lovebirds Prince Harry, 26, and Chelsy Davy, 25, are now getting so serious, he wants to tie the knot with her as soon as possible after his older brother and his fiancee Kate Middleton say their "I do"s this April.

"Harry hopes to announce his engagement to Chelsy a few months after Will's wedding," an insider says.

Although Harry and Chelsy have split several times during their seven-year relationship, he's certain she's The One, the insider adds.

"There aren't many people he trusts, but he knows he can count on Chelsy."

[From Star Magazine, print edition]

Wouldn't it be nice to think that Harry is the romantic, passionate one? That he sees Chelsy as the love of his life and he's set to make her his bride because he's so in love? It's also nice to think that if Harry ever does pop the question, Chelsy will turn him down. Just my thought - she already has money, and she's starting her career as a lawyer. Why buy the ginger cow when you can get the strawberry-flavored milk for free? Isn’t that right? Someone told me ginger dongs taste like strawberries? If only.

Last thing: this girl has a kick-ass body, and I totally admire her game and her career (coughWaitycough). That being said, at certain angles, in certain lights… she's just not very attractive.

Dina Lohan: “Lindsay’s just a little girl who loves to work”

Posted: 18 Feb 2011 10:10 AM PST

This morning, Dina "Mother Crackhead" Lohan went on Good Morning America to play her now standard-issue Crackhead Denial Game. I swear, you could just cut and paste the quotes from this piece with all of the other interviews Dina has done about Crackhead Junior over the past few years. The video is below, and here there are some highlight quotes after the video:

Dina Lohan's advice for Charlie Sheen: “Just get help….Lindsay took his advice and she gave him advice as well…just get help, you know. He’s been in the business a lot longer than my daughter and he’s from Hollywood."

Dina on Lindsay: "She's matured considerably." and “[She faces] a lifelong struggle with addiction. I believe [that Lindsay doesn't drink anymore], and I think it’s gonna be a lifelong struggle with addiction. But I think she’s gonna be okay."

Lindsay is struggling: “She’s a young girl struggling. You know, she’s not perfect. … She’s learning as she goes, but she’s learning under a microscope, so I can’t even imagine how that is."

Dina Lohan said she could “absolutely not” imagine her daughter being a thief.

Dina on her own struggles: “I can’t always fight what they’re saying or thinking of me. And I’m — I’m certainly not that person. So when people say, ‘Oh, she’s living off her children or her kids, or we’re all in this business.’ I grew up in this business. That’s what I know."

Dina describes herself as “a lifelong entertainer.”

Dina on how she always knew her daughter was a crackhead: “I knew early on, I just didn’t tell anyone about it. It was a personal situation…I saw it visually, what was happening. You know, I’m around my children. I was around Lindsay a lot, and I saw what was happening. I grabbed the bull by the horns and tried to get her help immediately.”

On Lindsay's first rehab stay, in 2007: “You know, you have to be ready as an individual. It’s not just gonna’ happen. You have to hit your own bottom,” she said.

On the media: “I never thought it would be this — the media would be so crazy. I really never thought it would get to this level,” said Dina Lohan. “It’s been really hard on my family, harder than anything.”

And finally: “I really think Lindsay was at a maturation level that she now understands what she needs to get from it. And she grasps that.”

[From ABC News]

Yeah, so mature. Lindsay is totally fine now, right? Oh, wait. She spent the night with Samantha Ronson after they went clubbing. And I'm totally sure they were both completely sober. Sure. Because as a "lifelong entertainer" Dina's professional opinion is that Lindsay is totally fine. Of course.

Also - notice how many times (in the video) that Dina says Lindsay is a "child" or a "little girl" or talks about how young Lindsay is. Bitch, your daughter has been a crackhead for like SEVEN YEARS. Stop treating all of this like it's some youthful indiscretion!!!

Shirtless Kelsey Grammer gets his mack on with young fiance in Miami

Posted: 18 Feb 2011 09:52 AM PST

fp_6789595_grammerwalsh_get
I wonder if I should have put “warning” in the title, but I think the title is warning enough. Here’s just-divorced Kelsey Grammer, 55, kissing his 28 year-old British girlfriend poolside on a “pre wedding getaway” in Miami. I’m sure it’s correct to assume that Kelsey called the paps, since he needs publicity for whatever reality show he’s going to parlay this jump off relationship into. As Lainey Gossip mentions, these photos are a bleak reminder of the reality of a 28 year-old hooking up with a man old enough to be her daddy. (Who just happens to look like he could be. Oh and the photos at Lainey Gossip are grosser.)

In news about Kelsey and his ex wife, Camille, In Touch reports that the former couple’s children are split up between the two with son Jude, 6, staying in New York with Kelsey and daughter Mason (yes, that’s her name), 9, staying with her mom and four nannies in Beverly Hills. They also claim that Camille had a fling with a “rocker.” Here’s more:

Their kids [are] 3,000 miles apart on opposite coasts. “Jude has been staying with Kelsey and Kayte in New York since early January. He’ll stay with them through the wedding and then return home,” an insider tells In Touch. “But Mason is still with Camille in California. She’s furious with her dad and refuses to have anything to do with Kelsey’s wedding to Kayte.”

Meanwhile, Camille, 42, is trying to move on… [she] recently re-entered the dating pool. “She briefly dated a rocker friend of Tommy Lee’s,” says the insider.

[From In Touch, print edition, February 28, 2011]

I don’t see Camille going for a rock type as she likes clean cut men like her boy toy Nick. Maybe she will go for anything at this point. She certainly seems to flirt with all men indiscriminately.

So if Kelsey and Kayte are in Miami where is his son Jude? Did he come with them with the nanny or stay back in New York with the nanny? I think it’s safe to assume wherever these kids are they don’t get much time with their parents.

Kelsey and Kayte are due to be married next Friday, February 25, in New York. Will they sell the photos? Need I even ask?

Did Alex Skarsgard buy Kate Bosworth a new pair of lips?

Posted: 18 Feb 2011 09:49 AM PST

fp_6791873_klein_calvin_ini_13_19

These are photos of Kate Bosworth outside and inside of the Calvin Klein show this week. She used to be the face of some Calvin Klein thing… perfume maybe, but I don't care enough to look it up. I don't think she's currently involved with Calvin Klein, though. Still, they seated her next to the current face of CK, Zoe Saldana. It's a bitchface-off! I like Zoe's bitchface more. Because doesn't it look like Kate's bitchface has been worked on? Look at her lips:

fp_6791872_klein_calvin_ini_12_19

Right? Nicole Kidman-esque.

Anyway, Kate's publicist had this little gem dropped into Us Weekly's print edition this week - it's called "Kate's Close to His Clan":

Face time with family! At a February 7 West Hollywood fete sponsored by Audi and Godiva, Kate Bosworth, 28, told Alexander Skarsgard's father, Stellan, "I love him, but when you meet the family, it's like, how lucky am I!"

Adds a pal of her romance with Skarsgard, "Kate's really happy."

[From Us Weekly, print edition]

HAPPY!! LUCKY!! Kate is pushing this way too hard, correct? Makes me think she's not really in it ONLY for publicity and famewhoring. It makes me think that the famewhore has grown herself a heart, and that she actually (gasp) cares about Alexander Skarsgard. Funky.

Oh, and CB says Kate's dye job is gross. Personally, I think Kate's bad hair is the least of her worries.
