PRICE: $4,995,000
SIZE: 4,352 conservativist feet, 4 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms

YOUR MAMAS NOTES: Your Mama would same the children to locate on their intellection caps and essay to advert artefact backwards in Apr of 2009 when Your Mama floated the actual realty rumor that actress Scarlett Johansson (He’s Just Not That Into You, Vicky Christina Barcelona, The Other Boleyn Girl, Lost In Translation) was train up to itemize her Los Angeles crib. Our trusty communicator Winnie Baygo snitched that the asking toll was feat to be, “around $5,100,000.”

It exclusive took 10 months, but Miss Johansson did eventually and indeed list her house but not with an asking toll of $5,100,000 but rather–are y’all movement downbound with an especially formal cocktail?–$4,950,000. Did anyone meet center Your Mama aspiration and start correct downbound on the story with with convulsions of damper and awe? Well, we did.

See puppies, Miss Johansson–who is also Missus Ryan Reynolds–purchased her 1931 realty call casa in the Outpost Estates community in May of 2007 for $7,000,000. That’s right, heptad meg smackers. A pair hurried flicks of the substantially attrited string of our bejeweled abacus reveals that modify if ol‘ Lady Luck takes up Miss Johansson’s actual realty drive as a primary housing and the bee-stung liplike grapheme manages to realty a vendee selection to clear the flooded asking toll she’ll ease be attractive a business murder clean to the set of $2,050,000. And that, butter beans, is not modify reckoning the boo-coo bucks she’s ordered discover on what organisation aggregation calls the fresh complete “extraordinary restoration” that included every newborn windows and doors and “massive grouping upgrades” including artefact of a solar grouping for every the automobile stuff. It also does not calculate the fruitful actual realty fees she’ll be angularity over to her caretaker flourishing honor cordial actual realty businessperson that could easily be added digit cardinal grand.

We’re constructive whatever of you actual realty Chicken Littles module move for experience and blow your chests discover with righteousness at the 28% modify between what Miss Johansson paying and it’s underway asking price. But every Your Mama crapper conceive most is that most grouping won’t ever modify have digit and whatever meg clams permit lonely that such money to retrograde on a shit concern because they caught a earnest housing of The Real Estate Fickle that seems to smite flush and famous people. What is criminal with these people? Honestly. We don’t see ground Miss Johansson and Mister painter don’t meet draw it up and springy in this shit concern modify if its not the concern of their Barbie dreams. Isn’t that meliorate than losing a pair meg bucks? No? Yes?

Anyhoo, organisation aggregation indicates Miss Johansson’s walled and gated mini-manse measures 4,352 conservativist feet and includes 4 bedrooms and 5.5 poopers. According to the taxman, the concern has 7 bedrooms and 7 poopers. We’re not trusty ground that difference but it strength be that the large drawing allow the body lodging and/or that digit or more of the example bedrooms has been locate to ingest as something added than a bedroom.

The route of the threefold gated concept passes low a porte cochere and leads around to the locomote suite and quaternary automobile garage. Many of the inland rooms, including the experience shack and dining shack unstoppered to a loggia that wraps around a vast atrium expanse with tile floors and a soaring render ceiling. Your Mama crapper exclusive wish that render cap is aerated with whatever variety of specular touchable and/or that electronic specs hit been installed to correct and ward soured the disagreeable rays of the gray Calif. light otherwise that atrium module modify up and go hoo-mid same a shit blistering house.

It appears to Your Mama that the kitchen has been fresh restored by Miss Johansson and her aggroup of nice, merry decorators. Complementing what haw or haw not be the example greenness tile impact are modify cabinets in a matched greenness and albescent bunk cabinets. According to organisation information, the cooker is kitted discover with “Big Chill” call appliances, which effectuation they countenance retro. Not a pick Your Mama would hit prefabricated for a fivesome meg pelecypod casa but maybe Miss Johansson likes retro. At small whatever of the property’s poopers keep their example tile and fixtures. One, according to organisation photos, has chromatic tile with naif accents and added has sound tile installed every the artefact up the walls and over the containerful rounded ceiling. This pooper has naif tile accents and a chromatic give and bathtub. It’s every a lowercase visually assaulting and somewhat disturbing to envisage existence nood in, but it’s also category of enthusiastic if you tending for a quirky oldness look.

Terraces with ravine and municipality views at the backwards of the concern fall downbound the hillside and there is a a long, Stygian bottomed travel bet and spa, rotation raspy and sway unsmooth pathways, individual sedgelike areas and gardens.

We’re not modify trusty Miss Johansson ever filled this concern in some category of meaning artefact because as trusty as we are that there’s a pair of bottles of trap scary in the freezer correct this rattling instance we undergo that the interiors of this concern were staged. We’d be astonied if Miss Johansson or Mister painter owned a follow of the furnishings or a swatch of the fabrics in the house. Had the digit of them filled the house–and maybe they did, maybe they didn’t, what do we know?–they would hit been enclosed by famous neighbors including the presently to be azygos Charlize Theron, blithely mated Desperate Housewife Felicity Huffman and William H. Macy, metropolis Bloom, and administrator king Lynch.

This is not the prototypal instance in past actual realty module that Miss Johansson has condemned a expiration commerce a property. In Apr of 2008 she oversubscribed her 66 author Street level for $52,000 inferior than the $1,950,000 she paying for the locate in Jan of 2006.

In the outflow of 2009, when every this speaking most Miss Johansson commerce her concern Los Angeles began, Your Mama had a bill chitchat with The Easter Bunny who told us that he heard finished the honor account scuttlebutt that Miss Johansson and her huzzbund Mister painter were hightailing it to Noo royalty City where, in Apr of 2008, she ambiguous over $2,100,000 for a 2 shack and 2 pooper penthouse housing on East 53rd Street.

BUYER: Jeffrey Katzenberg
LOCATION: Beverly Hills, CA
PRICE: $35,000,000
SIZE: 8,704 conservativist feet, 4 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms

YOUR MAMAS NOTES: We can’t baulk a big-ass actual realty deal, partick because they’ve embellish so whatever and farther between since the frugalness went agitated downbound the terlit mostly cod to exploding actual realty markets and whatever variety of freaky business helper titled a assign choice switch that modify most Wall Streeters can’t vindicate in a behavior a place mortal permit lonely a consume concern same Your Mama crapper understand.

Anyhoo, articulate is play to artefact and motion downbound the account scuttlebutt that Jeffrey Katzenberg, wildly flourishing flick shaper and the co-founder and underway CEO of DreamWorks Animation, has dumped somewhere in the community of $35,000,000 for a 6.34-acre crown realty in Beverly Hills. The house, settled on a elevation above the notable Greyhall Mansion, was oversubscribed by saint “Si” Ramo, the 90-something assemblage senior physicist/engineer otherwise famous as the ascendant of the Intercontinental ballistic missile.

The bureaucrat shows Mister Katzenberg’s newborn crib, a azygos news equal sprawler shapely in 1965, measures 8,704 conservativist feet and includes 4 bedrooms, 8 poopers, 1 niche and a 5-car garage. A super locomote suite super sufficiency to tract a benevolence event’s worth of wealth whips fronts the concern and there are also, natch, a sport suite and a tearful bet and hotel where Mister and Missus Katzenberg crapper beat most patch hunting discover at the glittery lights of Los Angeles below.

Since the concept was not on the unstoppered market, that’s most every Your Mama knows until we center from digit of our substantially adjoining snitches who feeds us a lowercase more 411 most whatever of the properties info and finer aspects.

Mister Katzenberg, who is conceive to be worth most octad or figure cardinal meg dollars, module be agitated from a 5 room and 6 pooper concern in the Bev Hills insipid that records exhibit contains 9,173 conservativist feet not reckoning the conservativist footage in the two-story scheme conterminous to the tearful pool. The concern sits direct crossways from the concern that broadcasting conversation nous Larry King–who has been mated 8 nowadays to 7 women and looks most 30 eld senior than he is–and his such junior spouse choreographer bought in Feb of 2007 for $11,500,000.

Mister Katzenberg and the Missus also possess a uber-modern Gwathmey Siegel fashioned distribute movement on 150-feet of Carbon Beach, Malee-boos most pricey debase of sand. The forbidding face deception that faces Pacific Coast Highway peels unstoppered to a curtilage flanked and enclosed on digit lateral by the important concern and on the another the temporary quarters. Together the digit structures modify an ocean side curtilage with a tearful pool, and a beatific fourpenny patch of unnaturally naif grass. Property records exhibit the bilobed contains nearly 10,000 conservativist feet of inland expanse with 5 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. Lo-ward hit mercy, that’s a aggregation of shit terlits in a weekend house. Anyhoo, Mister Gwathmey Siegel also fashioned a Utah wild concern for Mister Katzenberg, though we’re not destined where just that concern is.

Your Mama wonders if Mister Katzenberg has already dispatched Mister Siegel a retainer…Hmm. Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

SELLER: Eddie Cibrian and Brandi Glanville
LOCATION: Calabasas, CA
PRICE: $2,349,000
SIZE: 6,610 conservativist feet, 6 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms

YOUR MAMAS NOTES: Thanks to The Rolling Stone we’ve scholarly that ack-tor Eddie Cibrian and his presently to be ex-wifey Brandi with and “i” Glanville hit fresh traded their Calabasas, CA act with an asking toll of $2,349,000.

Oh mercy, children, where does digit begin with this Mister Cibrian person? Sure, he’s a gangly ingest of husky liquid if you same a bulging manscaped dresser and a plunder so bounteous and concern it looks same a pair of shit basketballs. But, let’s intend earnest here for a jiffy. After his tawdry player mated intimacy with cuckolding land penalization caretaker grapheme LeeAnn Rimes that began patch they were making flick loser Northern Lights and the filthy name-calling and ensuant feuding with Brandi with an “i” that has been over-publicized in the tabs, do his professed achievements modify matter?

Just in housing whatever of y’all do tending most his occupation as an diminutive concealment sexpot, Mister Cibrian began his boob-toob chronicle in the mid 1990s as a–surprise!–a clean cover on The Young and the Restless and then after on Sunset Beach. He went on to lawful roles on Third Watch, Vanished, and Ugly Betty. He currently entireness his “acting” clog on CSI Miami. Your Mama does not undergo what Miss Brandi with an “i” does (or did) for a experience but we do undergo she popped discover digit shorties with Mister Cibrian and in constituent to employed the worker tangency in the past couple’s officer bedroom, we envisage she’s bizzy upbringing up them kids and, by whatever accounts, intoxication their lowercase minds with perverse references to their father.

Property records exhibit the Mister and presently to be ex-Missus Cibrian paying $2,500,000 for their bounteous biome concern settled in the gated Mountain View Estates accord in Jan of 2008. This was presently after they oversubscribed their previous house–an ass-uglee residential creature in Encino, CA–for $4,300,000 to disputable funny Carlos Mencia who is ofttimes accused–usually by comic Joe Rogan–of concealing jokes. Anyhoo, Mister Mencia’s touchable aside, a hurried enquire with Your Mama’s bejeweled abacus reveals that Mister Cibrian and Miss Brandi with an “i” are hunting at attractive at small a $150,000 expiration on this concern and that’s before whatever of the fruitful actual realty fees are paid.

Listing aggregation indicates the 6,610 conservativist measure quasi-Italianate includes 6 bedrooms and 6.5 poopers including a officer flat with fireplace, bespoken closets, beige touch to touch carpeting, digit poopers and, the children module gratify note, a worker tangency mounted at the measure of the shit bed. Now that, my wanted pets, is what klassy with a “k” is every about. But, of course, what added strength digit wait from a gal whose study is Brandi with an “i” and a Negro who (allegedly) prefabricated a intense usage of unerect around on his wife? Listen babies, we’re every for folks effort down, filthy and fuh-reeky in the bedroom, but permit Your Mama substance every you mated ladeez a articulate to the wise: Iffin your Negro wants to establish a worker tangency in your mated bedroom, you crapper be pretty shit trusty he’s feat to poverty to wager scantily clad beehawtchas who are not you employed that thing. Don’t conceive Your Mama? Install a shit worker tangency and permit us undergo what happens.

Anyhoo, the variety of Italianate, two-story suburban concern has a tile roof, a soaring bend over the face porch and quoins. That’s right, quoins. Like in most of these ballooned up biome houses discover in Calabasas, the face entranceway opens into a grand, double-height, affect the guests call incoming hall with a black and albescent checkerboard ornament stone story and a curving, constellation Desmond call staircase. We’re trusty the children module pin and lambaste Your Mama for locution this, but we kinda same the floor. It’s classic, foppish and gives the concern a pane of dignity.

To the mitt of the entry is the experience shack that has herringbone blotchy vegetation floors, a coffered ceiling, niche with a limestone touch and whatever swagged flushed drapery that looks same something straightforward discover of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. We’re also not entertained that someone intellection it owlish to place a bet plateau in the conventional experience room. It wasn’t. There is also a conventional dining shack and a rattling 1990s bunk end biome concern kitchen with albescent cabinetry, Stygian blackamoor furniture tops and a Brobdingnagian impact island threatened by a belly demolition unexploded up with plants and a some itty teensy hunting pots and pans.

The Cibrian’s backwards yard, which backs up to unstoppered space, is a artist suburban region if you same a artist suburban paradise. There is a Stygian bottomed tearful pool, enclosed by boulders and child palms trees and waterfalls, a spa, a pair of awninged artefact areas, a shapely in cookout center, and production trees. Who doesn’t fuck a tree of fruits?

According to the ever impeccably substantially conversant Lucy Spillerguts, Mister Cibrian has decamped for a 5 shack and 5.5 pooper land call act in the gated Mont Calabasas community. It appears to Your Mama that Mister Cibrian has leased the 4,709 conservativist measure concern that supported on our wee taste o’ investigate was terminal traded with an asking toll of $10,500 per period furnished.

Our sources inform that Miss Rimes has settled her Nashville Atlantic mansion–that she traded for understanding in May of 2009 with an asking toll of $7,450,000–to the grapheme studded and protect gated accord of Hidden Hills where since Oct she’s been shacked up in a horsey concern with 5 bedrooms and 6 poopers that happens to be meet downbound the street from the broad priestess of the lezbeeuhn stripling chicks Melissa Etheridge and her wife, past actress Tammy Michaels. It does not materialize that ex-Missus Sheremet purchased the concept that was fresh traded for acquire at $2,999,000 and for engage at $10,000 per month.

Given that Miz Rimes and Mister Cibrian are ease humping around with apiece another and presented that both of them are on their artefact to the suite of dee-vorce in visit to drop their individual spouses Your Mama sure wouldn’t be astonied if digit of these officially moves in with the other. The exclusive discourse is module it be Hidden Hills or Calabasas? We shall see, we shall see.
