Would You Trust Diane Keaton to Decorate Your Home?

Diane Keaton Bedding

I was looking for sheets at Bed, Bath and Beyonce when I came across a line of home decor products called K by Keaton, designed by Oscar-winning actress Diane Keaton. How did I not hear of this before? Everyone talks about Paltrow and Remodelista and Courteney Cox. When it comes to style, I thought I might be more partial to the real-girl glamour of Ms Keaton. So I took a look.

Keaton was a style icon in the '70s, her Annie Hall days: adorable, boyish, casual, chic. Unfortch, she spawned a generation of women who thought throwing a floppy hat on over a horrible outfit = style. And her own choices were often less than perfect -- see her infamous Oscar outfit. Blech.
 
So is she great or horrible? She’s both! Just last year she appeared simultaneously in a Vogue article (photographed by Annie Leibovitz!) and ads for that apex of sparkly-granny non-style, Chico’s. Great! Horrible!
 
So what’s the verdict? Great? Horrible? Annie Hall ... or Mama’s Boy?

Famous TV Homes We'd Love to Live In

How fun would it be to step into one of your favorite TV shows? It would be such a hoot to live in a house your favorite TV characters call home.

I guess it's kind of dorky to want to re-enact scenes from that sitcom you love, but c'mon -- you know you'd do it. Wouldn't it be so fun to live in the apartment building that was used in Friends? You know you'd totally hum the theme song every time you walked up the stairs too!

Believe it or not, it just may be possible ...

Khloe Kardashian's New Bathroom Won't Gross Out Her Guests

Urinals in public restrooms are beyond disgusting. Not that I make a habit of venturing into men's rooms or anything like that, but they still have a major yuck factor even though I don't use them. I mean -- dudes pee in there. Gag me.

But apparently Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom don't agree with me. They're gearing up for their new reality show by remodeling their home in California, including a bathroom redo complete with a mouth-shaped urinal. Yes, I said mouth-shaped urinal. As in a big set of open lips for their male guests to have the pleasure of relieving themselves in.

Gisele Bundchen Can Hide From Her Words in New Mega-Mansion

Posted by Mary Fischer
on Feb 2, 2012 at 3:02 PM

Sigh. When is Gisele Bundchen going to learn that she really needs to think long and hard about her choice of words before opening her (big) mouth?

The supermodel has never been shy about voicing her strong opinions on parenting, which have gotten her into trouble on more than one occasion. From insisting she had a painless childbirth to proclaiming that breastfeeding needs to be a law, Tom Brady's other half seems to spit out whatever happens to be in the front of her brain at any given moment.

Now, she has people all fired up again -- but this time, it's not because of another desperate attempt to be mom of the year. The latest furor is over her claim that the 22,000-square-foot mega-mansion she and Brady are building is actually environmentally friendly (yes, I said 22,000 square feet). She may find herself hiding from attacks on her words in the labyrinth of rooms rather than actually getting to enjoy all that luxury. Bummer.

We can't let a day go by without speculating as to whether Jennifer Aniston is pregnant. Of course, it's not like she's doing anything to discourage us from this happy pastime. If anything, it's quite the contrary: Just the other day she appeared in public wearing an oversized black coat, and tongues everywhere wagged that she's trying to hide a baby bump.

Now comes the news that she and boyfriend Justin Theroux have purchased a $22 million mansion in Los Angeles’s Bel-Air neighborhood. It's impossible to look at these photos and not wonder whether the couple bought this gorgeous, sprawling home to raise a family. See for yourself!

Kelly Bensimon's $12 Million Home Is Super Dirty Real Estate Porn (PHOTOS)

Think what you want of former Real Housewives of New York star Kelly Bensimon, but the woman has good taste. Remember when we took you through a tour of her to-die-for New York City pad? Well, feast your eyes upon her 5,800-square-foot Hamptons mansion, which incidentally, could be yours ... if you happen to have an extra $12 million lying around.

Yes, Kelly is up and moving out of her East Hampton estate. Why? Who knows. Doubt it has anything to do with her getting fired from RHONY as A) she owned the house before she was on the show, and B) Housewives don't make that kind of money. But who cares? Thanks to Kelly's decision to put her home on the market, we get to soak up some hot, steamy, unadulterated real estate porn ... Mmmm ... I hope you're alone.

Elin Nordegren Destroyed Her $12 Million Mansion for a Good Reason

Elin NordegrenLast week Elin Nordegren was in the news for being a homewrecker. It was reported that the ex-wife of Tiger Woods had gone and demolished her $12 million North Palm Beach, Florida, home, which she had just bought last March. The question was why.

How could she? Was it a temper tantrum? A wasteful show of excess? Some Tiger-related drama attached to the house that she just couldn't bear any longer? The possibilities were endless and oh so tantalizing. The reality is something quite different.

Tiger Woods' Ex Elin Nordegren Is the One Doing the 'Homewrecking' Now

elin nordegren's home in north palm beach, floridaElin Nordegren's home before the wrecking ball hit.I think we can all agree that Tiger Woods' ex-wife Elin Nordegren isn't your everyday divorcee. And that's why I guess we shouldn't be surprised that there's still major fallout from her brutal, public split with the pro-golfer-slash-serial cheater. Elin seems to be taking pent-up aggression out on a house -- specifically, a $12 million six-bedroom mansion on the beach in North Palm Beach, Florida. She only bought it last March, but she's gone and knocked it down with plans to rebuild a TOTALLY DIFFERENT home on the property. TMZ says Nordegren has hired a high-priced architect, and every single worker is required to sign a confidentiality agreement.

Word is she didn't think the home was "modern" enough, but others speculate she's just doing it because she's so loaded, she can. I say there's more to the story than that.

Angelina Jolie Buys Brad Pitt a Freaking Waterfall

waterfallWhat do you get the man who has everything? If you're Angelina Jolie, you buy Brad Pitt a waterfall. The Daily Mail reports that Angie bought him this formidable force of nature for his 48th birthday. And you thought you were special, getting your longtime lover a Groupon for a cooking class for his birthday, pshaw. Vivienne and Knox are laughing in your face right now.

So this waterfall, this natural-gift-turned-birthday-gift, is supposedly in California where Brad wants to build a home. Apparently, he's always wanted a house over a waterfall and has plans to erect an architectural dream house over the cascade. Obviously.

New Year's Resolutions for the Cutest Celebrity Pets

Posted by Amy Keyishian
on Jan 3, 2012 at 2:05 PM

happy new year dogNew Year's resolutions are boring enough when humans are making them. But this article, which actually asked celebrities what resolutions their pets would make, is even lamer. Lea Michele says her cats would resolve to stop messing with her cotton balls. Katherine Heigl says her dog would resolve to be less aggressive to strangers. Josh Duhamel says his dog would resolve to get more exercise, just like the rest of us -- yawn!

So what did I do? I'm so intrepid, I went out and interviewed the celebrity pets I think are interesting about their resolutions. Wanna hear what they said? (Actually, I didn't really do this, of course. But if I did, I think it'd go a little something like THIS:)
