Real estate of the rich and famousThere’s plenty of room for friends at Courteney Cox’s Malibu pad. The actress tells Elle Décor in the July/August issue that, after growing up with 20 first cousins and having a Sunday dinner ritual at her grandmother's house, she’s still accustomed to rounding up loved ones for weekly celebrations. Situated on two acres, the estate has guest cottages, a tennis house and court, plus a saltwater swimming pool. The look she was going for, Cox tells Elle Décor, was “modern barn” – and with renovations, she’s created a space that’s “exactly how I want to live.” After all of her renovation work, the “Cougar Town” star isn't seeking to part with the property anytime soon, but there are one or two stars trying to cash in on their casas – Charlie Sheen is one of them. The actor has listed his 7,924-square-foot Beverly Hills home for $7.2 million, according to the Los Angeles Times. Located in Mulholland Estates, the mansion - perhaps better known as Sheen's "Sober Valley Lodge" - includes five bedrooms and seven baths, and is described as an "entertainer's dream with spacious public rooms, most of which open to a beautifully landscaped yard featuring a professional outdoor kitchen with dining area, pool and spa.” Meanwhile, Ellen DeGeneres may also be looking to make a sale – according to Curbed, the daytime talk show host and wife Portia have reportedly put their Beverly Hills compound on the market. Rumor has it that DeGeneres snapped up the main house for $29 million, and then the couple spent another $19 million to purchase adjacent mansions. Candy Spelling, widow of famed TV producer Aaron Spelling, has also put her $150 million Beverly Hills estate on the market – the highest-priced house in the U.S. – and it's all set to be sold to 22-year-old Formula One heiress Petra Ecclestone, according to the Wall Street Journal. The expansive 57,000-square foot space comes complete with a bowling alley, a beauty salon, gift-wrapping rooms, a flower-cutting hall, a china room, a dog grooming room and five bars. Across the pond, J.K. Rowling is demolishing another expensive property so she can build a garden. According to the U.K.’s Telegraph, the “Harry Potter” author has received permission to knock down a £1 million home next to her own mansion so that she can expand her outdoor space, creating a “Renaissance-style garden” with a greenhouse.

Dog grooming is not simply an aesthetic bonus for our canine friends. Maintaining a regular grooming schedule will help to keep your dog both happy and healthy. Routine dog grooming will ensure that your dog is free of parasites, has healthy skin and a shiny coat, and has good dental health. Of course, the aesthetic benefits are also a plus. Only a true dog lover wants to be around a dirty, stinky dog with bad breath. Proper dog grooming will bring out the best in man’s best friend. ;:

Candy Spelling's mansion is my favorite Beverly Hills house. This home is huge and includes a beauty salon, a china room, a dog grooming room and five bars. It is rumored that a real estate agent called michaellibow is helping Candy to sell the property. I would love to live in this fantastic house!
It's a good thing she's hot because she's dumb as a stump.

REPULSIVE.
And they should really let off JK Rowling. She actually deserves that garden! She has my respect unlike all the other garbage in this article.
performers much like athelete, golf/basket/soccer/baseball etc etc make alllottt of money because alllottt of people need to be entertained..and ususally their careers last as long as their looks or bodies can hold up. rake it in while they can and live itup while you can. llfe is fleeting, if you won the lotto today you would the same.
To the one who said greedy selfish americans.If you are British,your fellow brit JK rowling has house in this mag spread.Also another fellow brit by the name of Daniel Radcliffe has 2 million dollar brownstone in NYC and 2 million dollar apartment in miami and also a home in London.what do you have to say to that?
Courtney Cox home look's more like a techie's office space, just plain sterile white and chrome I guess looks isn't everything when it comes to stardom.
I agree. She doesn't seem to have a lot of imagination as far as decor is concerned.
Who really cares what these celebrities waste their money on.Unless it affects us personally who cares.I am sure we waste our money on something we shouldn't.I am willing to admit that I have bought shoes or some piece of clothing that I didn't wear when I got it home.Unless these celebrities invest some of their money that too will run out one day when they quit working.Money eventially does unless you invest and that will go to taking care of yourself when you get old.
Where is all the whining and griping about rich politicians like the Clintons or the kennedy buttwiping clan. You people crap out of both sides of your chocolate hole.
Rich or Famous is there money... If they don't need it I am always welcome to get some so I can rescue and take care of more abuse, neglected and abandon ones.
Pray people! If the rich gave all of their money away, who will be poor. The poor you will always have with you, also the rich too!

You apparently don't know squat about your own bible. John the Baptist did NOT author Revelations. Idiot!
It's not fair. I have to stand at a corner and sell myself to put a roof over my head and these peole have it so easy. If i have to go down on another fat and gross smelly penis I will tose the big fat gressy cheseburger and fries right on top of the smell pen!s
Which corner...how much?
These people are just salesmen. No real talent was mentioned. Oh what a world...what a world. We all miss the true artists don't we?
Aahhhhh....america at its best...ya'll sound like a bunch of wild dogs ready to bite anyone. Read all of these..if you can....listen to yourself. Like a pack of wild dogs. No wonder our world is going in the toilet...crazy dang people...very scary.
Geez....lighten up.
All I see.....is anger.
you guys are SCARY hope your not my neighbor
BE CREATIVE YOUR BEING MALICIOUS
publish comments that will be BENIFICIAL not TRASH
get your nose OUT of BUSINNESS that isnt YOURS and QUIT wasting PRECIOUS time that could be PRODUCTIVE for the UNIVERSE
we need not be swayed from attending our attention to issues that will get GLOBAL safety back in the front seat like intelligent human beings and there aught to be a LAW against BASHING another human being whether physical mental or especially VERBAL every individual who causes another HARM should be held accountable for their individual ACTIONS
Wow. Look at some of the singers from the 90's that no one hears about . Now they write songs for the up and coming people . So sad isn't it . They all still getting paid still . Shanice Wilson sings backup for Mariah Carey and writes for Britney. Get paid gurrl!
The money they "waste" creates employment for others. Contractors, caterers, landscapers, etc. When have you ever gotten a job from a poor person? You d@mn liberals crack me up!
JK Rowling, if you are reading this... Invite the tv show "extreme makeover" to the hm to be demolished. Let them take some of the hardware, etc. Or how about Habitat For Humanity".
most sensible comment imo
i hope she does. JK Rowling does a lot for charity, so if any of the above-mentioned celebrities were to do something charity-wise with their estates, it'd be her
I have no problem with rich people doing whatever they want with their $. Many Hollywood stars are very generous to charities & conscious of the disparities in todays society. I do have a problem with the rich being coddled & catered to by butt smooching politicians. They get tax breaks & we get every program our tax $ has payed for cut & slashed to the bare minimum! Education, womens healthcare & emergency services are some necessities that have landed on the chopping block this year! It makes me feel like no one is standing up for the average citizens anymore, because everyone's so bedazzled by wealth & fortune! I'm seeing prices rise, while my salary can't keep up. We do work & work but have very little to show for it, & I'm tired of "sacrificing" on the premise of saving the economy, when those who have more than they need are exepmpt & get to frolic without a care! That's twisted & wrong!!
I say – let the rich and famous enjoy – why the hell not? They work very hard. They also play hard, and that is what people object to. I think that it really depends when they had money to their name. It is so sad when you see famous people peak in their 20's and have to struggle by the time they are 30 something or even forty something. Save a good chunk of your money, in case you change your mind and you want to live elsewhere or in a different life style altogether. The idea is to gain that independence for yourself for a life time – not burn out in 10 years. Kardashians can I guess keep getting married when they run out of money. No class at all, but we've always had gold diggers.
People in Hollywood can struggle for DECADES before making it big. And for every one big $$$ maker there are hundreds more waiting tables. Its a rough life. Some are just blessed enough to be at the right place, at the right time. I'm sure all you negative commenters would trade your lives for theirs in a heartbeat. Hollywood isn't easy to navigate!
You know,all this horrible actress's and singers,and "rich famous people" at very earliest stages of their lives,were
struggling to make it..and for most of them,it took a while to make that kind of money,now ofcourse,when they do start earning such huge sums of money..perhaps they lose the sight of the fact that ..money doesnt last for ever..if unplanned purchases are made to keep with "the jones"..and often this is what happens..most of them end up
broke or near broke towards end of their lives.Hopefully there are newly rich who are keenly aware of this facts.
you guys are dumb! its their money! and who cares if anna is a lesbian? she can live anywhere she wants!
Good. We dont want yoy gays and lesbeans here in Utah. Dont need ya here. Dont want ya here. Just stay in san francisco and smooch with your boyfriend and eat ricearoni.
Okay...and you stay in Utah. Now we all happy.
We dont allow lesbeans like anna here in Utah. They might try to be a smooching on all our young ladies.
You are right Snarky. I bet anna is a flatlander. Probably a lesbian too.
Rich people are D-bags. Bottom line. There's no getting around it. Some more than others, but they're all D-Bags.
I'm going to be getting married soon. If anybody wants to buy me a house like this for my wedding gift, I'll be ok with that.
I'd be happy to buy you a reason for all your fame and adulation, but I'm not sure there's enough money for that.
You should all realise that this is their money!
They can do whatever they want with it.They dont have to donate to charity if they dont want to.
Lets face if if we all had lots of money we would do exactly the same!
Wrong. No way i'd live in Americastan with all the ultra-rightists and religious zealots if I had the cash to get out.
Anna, you are retarded.
I like it when they remodel or just plain spend their money...on anything. It keeps people like me employed. Right on!
Iggy having a bad day? Justin Timberlake can help you with your anxieties! Just turn your brain off for awhile, ok?
Normal people work and work and work some more and try to always do thr good kind things and still get pooped on. That is just life.
Im sorry for whining. Juat think my a.c. will have to be replaced. They said iyll be about $3000. I have the $ but sure dont want to spend it. Its rainy day emergency savings. It sure would be nice if all of us would catch a break or have good luck every once in a while.
Your "rainy day" savings must now be for "hot days." $3K is a seriously good price. Mine was over $5k.
Well its you IDIOTS that watch their shows and go to their movies that made them this way, so in effect you idolators gave them their riches. Ya Fing hypocrits.
Off your meds again?
Does your mommy know you're on the internet?
Well put. If they feel so strongly about what they think is gratuitous wealth, then don’t support them.
I agree.....I know they work hard for their for their money too, but Geesh..they waste a lot too and RUB it in people's faces
Really they work hard try raising 3kids age 7, 5 &3 wit no help plus having to deal with a herniated disk and a pinched nerve
Just wait, in a few years when she's no longer making any money, it'll be for sale or foreclosed on. Hope she's keeping up with the taxes.
This is just sickening. Ellen Degenerate being able to afford a 29 million dollar house. These horrible celebrities waste more money on things they dont need than 10 or 20 average peoople will even make in their entire lives. Most of us are grateful when we can even afford lunch.
Ellen Degenerate?
I hope you stop breathing the community air soon.
Bah – Found my way to trollsville.
Helen is just another spoiled narcissist her last name says it all truly a DeGeneret she really doesn't have a lot of talent to me, it's the gay movement that's pushing her career.

As I do you Allen.
I'm having a terrible time financially right now myself. But I hope that if I'm ever lucky enough to have millions, I won't have to listen to a bunch of jealous retards telling me how I should or shouldn't be spending it.
Where is Chandler? I thought they were married.
