20 Celebrities Who Sold Their Homes To Other Stars
Celebrities become entangled with each other in many different ways, from romantic relationships to chat-show appearances and film or music collaborations. Another way they get to know one another though is through selling real estate. Yes, filthy rich celebs often sell their mansions to another filthy rich celeb when they want to move on. Here are 20 occasions this has happened, including some very surprising connections!
1. Lady Gaga to Elizabeth Jagger
This Hollywood Hills mansion was owned for 20 or so years by legendary rocker Frank Zappa, right until his untimely passing in 1993. Pop star and actress Lady Gaga got her hands on the 8,000 square foot property quite a while later, buying it off Zappa’s children. The mansion boasts a large swimming pool in the backyard, two guest cottages, and a sky-lit kitchen, among many other perks.
Model behavior
Gaga was no doubt attracted to the recording studio in the home, once dubbed “Utility Muffin Research Kitchen” by the eccentric Zappa. But for some reason the “Bad Romance” singer then decided to sell the place to the daughter of rock royalty, Lizzy Jagger. Yes, she’s the offspring of The Rolling Stones’ Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall. Unlike her father, Lizzy’s a model, so perhaps she’ll enjoy the landscaped gardens and bizarre submarine windows more than the recording studio.
2. Gary Oldman to Vanessa Hudgens
Former High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens moved into this stunning house in LA’s Los Feliz neighborhood back in 2018. She purchased the Georgian-style mansion near to the Hollywood Hills for close to $5 million from English actor Gary Oldman. The luxury home was actually built by legendary director Cecil B DeMille 100 or so years ago.
European feel
Oldman had put in 18th-century French oak floors, which Hudgens kept in place. Hudgens said to Architectural Digest that she loved “the old Hollywood elements” and the home, adding that its olive trees made her feel like she “had been transported to France or Italy.” Still, the actress has now moved on from the property, selling it to Ronan Farrow and Jon Lovett in March 2022.
