You could be living in the same home as a movie star, super model, rapper, comedian, talk show host or even a rock n’ roller.
It’s not the best time to sell because of the current housing market conditions but, all of these celebs have different reasons for selling. After all, they are celebrities and they often do thing for strange reasons. At least Mel Gibson’s has a good reason, his latest spat with former girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.
