Music Drake’s new record sets a record Well, this shouldn’t be a surprise. Drake knows how to capitalise on social media almost better than anyone else, with the exception of maybe BTS, in ordinary times so he obviously knows how to take advantage of it right now, when everyone’s on lockdown and on their devices By Lainey • Apr 14, 2020 02:51 pm
Maple Leaf Chateau Drake Well he and OVO call it The Embassy and it’s featured in the new issue of Architectural Digest. The Embassy is Drake’s Toronto… mansion? Estate?

Gross Diane & Norman look for a home Every celebrity couple has its Twi-Hards. Some of them are more bonkers than others. The ones who still believe Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are secret-married are at one end the spectrum and, in general, in my experience, I’ve found the Emma Stone-Andrew Garfield stans to be pretty chill, By Lainey • Feb 13, 2018 02:42 pm
Celebrity Real Estate Jennifer Aniston’s interior design Jennifer Aniston covers the new issue of Architectural Digest. It’s a profile of her Bel Air home, with photos of her office and the pool and the living room and bathtub and one of the bathrooms which seems really dark, as in very little light. How do you feel By Lainey • Feb 08, 2018 12:05 pm

Celebrity Real Estate Mila’s Home Reno Project Have you ever fallen into a Houzz hole? It’s such a fascinating concept because before visual-based social media, like Pinterest and Instagram, homes were mostly private.

Celebrity Real Estate With what money??? Johnny Depp is suing his former managers, alleging that they mishandled his finances. The managers are countersuing, insisting that they did their jobs, and the reason why Johnny’s broke is because he makes terrible decisions, spends outrageously, and wouldn’t listen when they told him to stop making it By Lainey • Feb 10, 2017 10:55 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Meg’s Major Apartment Steeze Yesterday, Lainey wrote about Johnny Depp’s apartment/expensive torture chamber. It’s a lot of sharp corners, cracks and brightly painted walls, basically my nightmare. The antidote to that? Meg Ryan’s New York loft, featured in November’s Architectural Digest (via PEOPLE). At first glance, I immediately thought By Maria • Oct 04, 2016 01:18 pm
