In 2020, Amanda and her female co-host, Alesha Dixon, were stunned to learn that their male co-host, David Walliams, was earning 1.5 million pounds per season: more than double Amanda’s salary and nearly 4x Alesha’s salary. Upon learning of the pay discrepancy, Amanda and Alesha demanded equal pay....

Today, it was revealed that an anonymous Middle Eastern billionaire purchased a home on the outskirts of Paris. “Home” isn’t really an appropriate way to describe the house. It’s technically a Chateau. The purchase price? 275 million Euros. Also known as $301 million US dollars! That’s enough to make it the most expensive private home that anyone has ever bought. It’s not the most expensive home ever BUILT. That honor still belongs to Mukesh Ambani’s $1 billion, twenty-seven story skyscraper home “Antilla....

Smith is America’s richest black billionaire, and the third-richest black billionaire on Earth, and with a net worth of $4.5 billion dropping, $18 million outright on a house is really no big deal for him. And in fact, by the standards of the area it’s not too big a price tag either – last year a home there sold for $110 million, breaking the record for most expensive residential real estate sale in the history of Southern California (interestingly, that sale was made by those other billionaire Smiths, Michael & Iris, presumably no relation), and another home reported to be very close to Smith’s new digs recently went for $85 million....

But he’s been trying throughout the year to sell it at that price, so it might not happen. Still, the property is a nice one even by Beverly Hills standards. Described in its official listing as “The Hamptons comes to Los Angeles,” the listing mentions its detached two-story guest house (“currently used as two separate state-of-the-art recording studios,” says the listing, a reference to the home’s current occupant....

She hoped to build a lavish Italian-villa-inspired estate with a tennis court and very tall security walls on the property. “Not so fast,” said the notoriously-difficult Malibu planning commission. The myriad obstacles thrown up by Malibu’s planning commission caused Cher to wait FIVE years before she could break ground. She then spent another five years actually building what eventually became a 13,000 square-foot mansion with an absolutely stunning clifftop pool overlooking the ocean....
