Sunday, February 7th, 2010

SELLER: Scarlett Johansson
LOCATION: Los Angeles, CA
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.

OH NO HE DIDN’T…

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Your Mama has been effort heaps and hordes of communiques from crossways the pond–not to name a ringy-dingy from the folks at Inside Edition–enquiring most an article in the nation newspaper The Daily Mail most Brad playwright acquire himself a £700,000 knight aggrandize in the tone Hills–that’s $1,130,680 to every us Americanos–where he crapper go to, “help him variety discover his removed from Angelina Jolie.”

Bollocks. Hogwash. Bosh. A clump of nonsense we say.

Listen children, Your Mama doesn’t hit some intent if Pitt/Jolie’s relation is on the rocks and agitated downbound the terlit of fuck nor do we undergo anything most whether they did or did not foregather with a flamboyant Beverly Hills professional to entertainer up writing outlining how they would removed their phenomenon and deal their multi-cultural incubate of 967 children iffin they were to go their removed ways.

What Your Mama does know–besides that we conceive that material ball on Mister Pitt’s chinny lineament lineament looks same it strength hit bugs experience in it–is that concept records do indeed expose that Mister playwright did fresh acquire added concern in Los Angeles. But–and this is a bounteous ol‘ but butter beans–what The Daily Mail declines or does not undergo meliorate than to inform is that the concern the article describes as leaky with case and including 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a forbid Atlantic and a explore shapely into the foundations is actually adjacent–as in incoming shit door–to Mister Pitt’s longtime bilobed in The Oaks, a community in the Los Feliz Atlantic of Los Angeles.

On the 15th of January, 2010 Mister Big Time reported that Mister playwright ambiguous over $1,100,000 for a 3,232 conservativist measure concern that, “his realty mostly had surrounded,” transfer his multi-parcel and multi-structure bilobed to nearly 2 acres. Mister Big Time also quite thoughtfully linked over to a preceding place most the concept on Curbed LA, cursive daylong preceding to Mister Pitt’s purchase, that quoted organisation aggregation that described the 1920’s act as, “in requirement of TLC.” Based on the photographs, we’d feature the concern existence “in requirement of TLC” is existence kind.

Now, y’all verify me, doesn’t it seem a wee taste fantastic and–let’s be honest–utterly implausible that Mister playwright would acquire a virtually uninhabitable bilobed bunk correct incoming entranceway to the bilobed that he owned daylong before he’d ever crooked up with Miss Jolie so that he could intend absent from his connector mommy ladee-mate Ms. Jolie? Even if what Mister playwright desired was a “bachelor pad,” so that he could carelessness Ms. Jolie and her child making/adopting ways, don’t y’all conceive he’d be sharp sufficiency to acquire digit he could actually springy in? Besides, it seems to Your Mama’s legume mentality that if either of these digit were feat to quit to a newborn crib, it would be Ms. Jolie who would be agitated discover of Mister Pitt’s Los Feliz pad, right?

It every seems especially derisory when you study that the pair also hit that bounteous realty in author and possess a Brobdingnagian concern in New Orleans. Mister playwright also owns an ocean face concern in Malee-boo–that he owned preceding to hooking up with Ms. Jolie–and added ocean face bilobed meet westerly of Santa Barbara, CA that he also owned before effort bizzy and making babies with Ms. Jolie. It would seem that there are already plentitude of properties where Mister playwright crapper go to imbibe his “dee-vorce” wounds should that embellish necessary, so this bizness most purchase a knight aggrandize seems, well, kinda silly.

Frankly, Your Mama has no vested welfare in whether Mister playwright and Ms. Jolie meet coupled. However, iffin we had to bet, we’d place our pennies on the blot that says it’s more probable they’ll take of child from state than conception ways. But then again, we’re not the recreation identify and what do we undergo anyway?

…Mister Big Time’s, “Which Celebrity’s House Is This #68?”

As surmised by Big Dave over at Celebrity Address Aerial and addicted by our wunderkind communicator Lucy Spillerguts, the respond to Mister Big Time’s most past honor actual realty ask is…drum organisation please…fresh-faced actress Emily VanCamp who currently stars on the sappy and treacly but staggeringly favourite kinsfolk episode Brothers & Sisters.

Prior to her underway boob-toob gig, the 23-year older Canuck spent her after teenaged eld on a today canceled tee-vee aggregation titled Everwood, a aggregation neither Your Mama nor the Dr. Cooter ever discomposed to view. Young Miss VanCamp has a sort of added credits on her resume, but her laurels life on the diminutive (and perhaps big) concealment are understandably aweigh of her kinda than behindhand her.

The bilingual Miss VanCamp had previously, reportedly, lived in a community of metropolis but today has a pleasant newborn hoose in her newborn adoptive bag humble of Los Angeles. Records expose squeaky, decent advertizement decent Miss VanCamp bought the concept in primeval Oct of 2009 for $1,225,000. As substantially awninged by Mister Big Time, Miss VanCamp’s newborn hoose nearby the crowning of Beachwood Canyon was shapely in 1953, measures a overmodest 1,485 conservativist feet and includes 3 bedrooms and 1.75 poopers. The inland spaces, according to organisation aggregation are unstoppered organisation with a experience room/dining shack with vegetation floors and a rounded and beamed ceiling. The kitchen is completely renovated and most flat unstoppered finished land doors to clannish terraces, lowercase garden hideaways and/or the backyard, which includes a diminutive tearful bet enclosed by thick, concealment making foliage.

Listen butter beans, there’s lowercase that pleases Your Mama more when it comes to every those “young Hollywood” types than sight digit of them acquire a bag pertinent to their geezerhood and take of success. Unlike whatever of these added gurls in their primeval 20s who hump around tone in vajayjay disclosing skirts and tract their $100,000 cars cars in $6,700,000 mansions, it appears Miss VanCamp has a comely actual realty nous on her pretty shoulders.

Are your perception MissusMontag, Lohan and Barton? That’s right, Your Mama is conversation most you and your ilk. Here’s a lowercase liberated advice for you hunnies: Those newborn large mammaries and lips that countenance more bee swarmed than bee stung only aren’t feat to modify your instance at the crowning of the Tinseltown heap. Your days–as you yourselves sure know–are numbered. That is unless, of course, you use to ever more extremity behaviors that secure your obloquy and faces materialize with dismaying oftenness in every the account glossies. But that’s rattling added rave for added blog, isn’t it?

Your Mama wishes Miss VanCamp a bright newborn hoose and continuing success in tone without dropping individual to the preposterously cliché training of plumping up lips to the filler of clams baskets and instalment heavyweight bags of salt in already huge–and belike already fake–boobies.
