UPDATE: Babajian and Grasso 2008-04-20 00:32:45 A little Sunday reading for the kids.Your Mama has received many requests for information about indicted celebrity real estate agents Joseph Babajian and Kyle Grasso. While whispers and rumors continue to sweep along Sunset Boulevard, little real information has been revealed about the fates of the former top producers...until last week. In case the children missed it, the Los Angeles Times printed a thorough update about the current and fascinating state of affairs.Your Mama is glued to this story like white on rice. We've got hugely successful brokers who made millions from big name clients like David and Victoria Beckham, Ryan Seacrest and Oscar de la Hoya, and allegedly risked it all for a few hundred thousand more. We've got the venerable investment bank Lehman Brothers writing down m

Your Mama Hears... 2008-04-20 00:31:41 ...that celebrity hair honcho Sally Hershberger will be opening her very own Los Angeles outpost in the same building that houses celebrity decorator Kelly Wearstler. We're not surprised.The budding tycoon is busting out all over with a line of tshirts called Shagg, a series of anti aging lotions and potions (with The Face Place), and she will shortly open the doors of her East 71st Street outpost (Sally Hershberger Uptown) on the top two floors of an exquisite brownstone a few steps from Central Park. Now all the rich behatchas and diva doyennes on Park Avenue won't have to to fret about whether it's safe to venture over to the west side where Sally Hershberger Downtown is discreetly located on the second floor of a non-descript building on far West 14th Street in the Meatpacking District
In Response... 2008-04-20 00:31:03 ...to Mister Big Time's December 23rd query about which celebrity sold the property at 1840 Camino Palmero in Los Angeles.The answer is Beck. And don't any of you nut cases think it would be cute to be driving by waving, shouting and flashing your boobies because not only would that make you a dip shit, Mister Beck, his family and all their Thetans have long moved on to new digs.Property records reveal that the quirky singer paid $3,950,000 for the house (pictured above) in June of 2005. The records also show the house measures 4,012 square feet. However, listing information for the property from the time that Mister Beck purchased show the square footage at 5,200 with six bedrooms and six bathrooms. The listing breaks it down as as follows: four bedrooms upstairs (all en suite), a staff r Read more:Response

Go and lay down on your cushioned chesterfield, catch your breath and then take a few anxiety pills to settle your frazzled nerves. Your Mama knows that after viewing the soo-blime Palm Beach manse of recently deceased bizness man Howard Gittis, the children were expecting something faint worthy from his Southampton summer residence.

Lauren Conrad Flattens Out 2008-04-20 00:29:04 All the children know that both Your Mama and the Dr. Cooter love us some tawdry reality T.V. However, we do not tune in to The Hills because we find the juvenile cat fighting, faux fashion jobs, and sex tape nonsense a total snooze. Your Mama did not like teenagers when we were a teenager and we like them even less now. Even worse in our big book of judgment is 20-somethings on television acting like teenagers. Ugh. Your Mama would rather baby sit Sister Woman's insanely loud and migraine inducing children than get our blood pressure worked up by that piece of reality television trash. None the less, Your Mama recognizes that many of the children probably care more about this reality show rich gurl named LaurenConrad
than they do their own family. So...According to the New York Post's Pa

is back in the real estate gossip columns. The LA Times' celebrity real estate high priestess Ruth Ryon recently reported in her Hot Properties column that the former reality television stud purchased a unit in the much publicized and bally-hooed Eastern Columbia loft building, which happens to be located in a still scrappy and crappy part of downtown Los Angeles.Yes kids, this is the same freshly converted condominium conversion where LA based designer du jour Kelly Wearstler did up the lobby (her huzband happens to own the company that developed the building), and where a-list actor Johnny Depp plunked down $2,100,000 for a penthouse unit. No one seems to know just why Mister Depp, who owns a lavish and storied estate above Sunset
