Adriana Lima Lists Midtown Manhattan Condo For $5.5M Must be nice! Via Zillow Blog: Maybe she’s Maybelline. Maybe she’s a mom of two. Either way, Adriana Lima has been living the high life from the beaches of Miami to the metropolitan mecca of Manhattan. Her city-dwelling days may be winding down, though. The Brazilian supermodel is selling her Midtown apartment, located at 146 W 57th St #42DE, New York, NY 10019, for $5.5 million. Described by real estate agent Adam Modlin as a “trophy residence” with “jaw-dropping views of Central Park and the city,” the 2,200-square-foot condo is what you’d expect for the world’s fourth-highest paid supermodel. Visitors are greeted by a 24-hour, white-gloved doorman and concierge, and residents can enjoy an exclusive restaurant and dining terrace, as well as a renovated fitness center. Entering Lima’s unit, mirrors, windows and glass reflect light off nearly every surface, creating a luxurious and spacious feel. A plush media room is lined with a chocolate-colored velvet sofa, while the oversized master suite comes with a customized walk-in closet, soaking tub and spa-like shower. Lima bought the condo for $1.995 million in 2003 — the same year she became a spokesmodel for Maybelline cosmetics. The Victoria’s Secret Angel also owns a 4-bedroom, 4-bath home on Florida’s Indian Creek Island. Between the two properties, it’s not surprising Lima is holding onto the beachfront property with her active family: basketball player-husband Marko Jaric, 3-year-old Valentina and 8-month-old Sienna. Even for Midtown Manhattan, though, the condo is on the pricier side, well above the median list price of $1.544 million. An estimated monthly payment is $20,382, assuming 20 percent down on a 30-year fixed mortgage.
Looks like Breezy is ready to wife up Karaoke … Chris Brown And Karrueche Move Into Together Via TMZ reports: Call her crazy … but Karrueche Tran and Chris Brown are full-on LIVING TOGETHER … TMZ has learned. Sources close to the couple tell TMZ … they hooked up days before his 24th birthday earlier this month and she’s been staying at Chris’ Hollywood Hills home ever since. Though she’s keeping her own apartment — smart — she’s already moved most of her clothes and other personal belongings to his pad. And it’s not like they’ve been secretive … they’ve been spotted everywhere lately, hitting up the Billboard Awards afterparty and even rear-ending a Mercedes together. Karrueche’s one persistent scorned lover — when Chris first dumped her back in October for Rihanna — she vowed to win him back, as TMZ first reported. So where does this leave Rihanna? RiRi and Breezy officially called it quits a few weeks ago … but they’ve ALWAYS had an on-again, off-again relationship … and Chris has made it no secret — he loves ‘em both. Hey Karrueche … you ever heard the expression, “Fool me once …” Poor RihRih! Wonder if Karate is still finding Rih’s toothbrush and weave all over Breezy’s crib…
Even when Bieber is away his boys will play… Via National Enquirer reports : Bieber’s mega-mansion has been transformed into the ultimate bachelor pad by his sin-crazed buds who throw all-night bashes while he is on tour. “There are usually only five dudes and about 42 girls,” a regular raver at Casa Bieber in Calabasas, Calif., tells RadarOnline. “A couple of them are pole dancers and the rest are just girls that everyone knows. All the guys are pretty much hooking up with all he women, they find two or three girls that they like a night. “The parties are pretty wild, it is like an insane frat party but with way less dudes and a lot more hot chicks! They go on until about 4 or 5 in the morning.” But, not all the rumors about the party pad are true, claims the source. “Everyone is saying there is a lot of ‘sizzurp’ (codeine syrup) but that’s not true, the only drug used by some people is maryjane,” he explains. “Then other people (sucking down) Ciroc vodka or Stella Artois beer. “Justin knows about the parties and doesn’t mind – but there’s always a bodyguard to make sure no girls are taking pictures. Everyone who comes in has to sign (a non-disclosure waiver) and leave their cell phone at the door with security.” Spread out on 1.3 acres of land and covering 10,000 square feet, the mega-mansion turned party central is luckily so huge that even the closest neighbors can’t hear the mayhem that’s going on inside the property, reveals the party-goer. “We haven’t heard anything from the neighbors because the house is so big and we usually keep it in one room – the Hookah Lounge – and then go out and party in the pool,” the pumped up lounge lizard said. “You can’t hear the music outside of the estate though and no cops have ever been called – if a neighbor has complained it will probably have been about the amount of cars out in the street.” And, the party doesn’t stop when the Biebs is home – but it becomes decidedly more PG! “It just depends on what kind of mood Justin is in on the night. You gotta remember, Justin’s 19 and what are other kids his age doing?” Among the core group of permanent “house guests”– who all live at the $6.5 million estate in a suburb of Los Angeles for free – are rappers King Kevi (a.k.a. Kevin Pederson) and Lil Twist, but the source insists this new breed of Rat Pack aren’t mooching off the Cheez Whiz Kid. “Kevi comes from a wealthy family and is in talks with record labels – and the other guys are worth at least $5 million each,” the insider divulged. We can’t vouch for everything — but we’ve definitely heard that Bieber is a fan of non-disclosure agreements so we know at least some of this is likely true. Does any of this surprise you? WENN
