Pop star The Weeknd sold his 7-bedroom mansion to Madonna for $19 million.
The estate sits on three acres of land. There’s a guest house with two bedrooms. The main mansion features his and hers master suites. Also, a wine cellar, fitness studio, media theater, basketball court and five-car garage.
Surprisingly, The Weeknd paid $18 million right after the release of his Starboy album. In this sellers’ real estate market, right now where buyers are overbidding on homes, it appears that Madonna got a steal of a deal. (People)
John Mellencamp tells AmericanSongwriter.com that a chance encounter while driving inspired his song, ‘Pink Houses’. ”I was driving through Indianapolis, when I saw a black man holding a black cat while lounging on his front lawn. The man was sitting on his front lawn in front of a pink house in one of those cheap lawn chairs. I thought, ‘Wow, is this what life can lead to? Watching the cars go by on the interstate?,’ Then I imagined he wasn’t isolated, but he was happy. So, I went with that positive route when I wrote this song.”
