JK Simmons may not be someone you'd expect to have a $4.5 million home to sell. He's a character actor that drifts from tv commercials (Farmers), to indie films (Juno) to random TV spot (Archer). And of course he occasionally picks up an oscar for his work ("Whiplash"). But it's true. The guy who not only sells you insurance and plays the red M&M (seriously) is selling a house for $4,495,000.
The home itself is classic 80's contemporary with it's white curvy walls and holy black lacquer! You'll notice two full kitchens. That's because the guest house on the property is a giant 1,387 sq ft. That's a whole house on it's own. The main house is 6,900 sq ft. has 7 bedrooms and 8 baths but the outstanding grounds are where the place shines.
Gardens, pools, bridges... it's so lovely.

The rebel dreamboat Jared Leto is moving out of LA's party hills in favor of the more mature Laurel Canyon. Which leaves a vine wrapped mid century home empty and ready for purchase.
Unassumingly large at 4,021 square feet, the place boasts 4 bedroom and 3 baths. Out back overlooks a tropically landscaped side yard with swimming pool, spa, built-in fire pit, built-in grilling station, and extensive concrete terracing.
The place is a steal at $1,999,000.

Designer Porky Hefer, from Cape Town, South Africa, created this amazing collection of hanging chairs that resemble different animals – like an orca, a pufferfish, a pelican, a manta ray, an alligator, and an anglerfish. The series of furniture, entitled Monstera Deliciosa, are strongly woven and easily allow a person to sit, nay swing, in the unusual functioning art.
According to Hefer, each ‘nest environment’ was made using traditional South African craft skills, like stitching, weaving, and splicing together various fibers. He even collaborated with local craftsmen, including master weaver Ismael Bey, to revive a dying craft.
‘Ismael has trained weavers at the Cape Town Society for the Blind, where I’ve had a lot of my designs produced’, Hefer said. ‘In this way, I use his traditional knowledge and weaving skills and subvert these into non-traditional forms, making them more relevant’.
These gorgeous and delightful pieces do actually come up for sale from time to time. But the price isn't disclosed. Which is curator speak for "if you have to ask, you can't afford it". Oh well.

Mila Kunis penned a powerful letter in A Plus detailing the sexism she’s experienced throughout her career, including having a producer threaten her future in the entertainment industry simply for refusing to pose semi nude in a mens magazine to promote a film.
“’You’ll never work in this town again.’ A cliché to be sure," she wrote. “I was no longer willing to subject myself to a naïve compromise that I had previously been willing to.” Upset by his statement, she cont...
Before you ask me who Rachel Hunter is, I'm going to tell you. She was a supermodel back when supermodels were just models we thought were super. The late 80's. And in 1990 she married Rod Stewart, rock god. So that's who she is.
For our purposes, Ms Hunter is the owner of beautiful spanish bohemian house in the always marketable Hollywood Hills. It's so homey and feminine and has views for days.
Clocking in at 5,000 square feet, this 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath is being offered for tw...
Famed artists like Salvador Dali and Piet Mondrian have been used as fashion muses for years. They're familiar designs covering everything from mini skirts to infinity scarves. So it's about time some new blood hit the racks.
Alice + Olivia is rolling out a capsule collection of clothes and accessories displaying the work of ’80s Neo-Expressionist Jean-Michel Basquiat. And I love it.
Bendet created the 17 piece collection with the permission and advice of the Basquiat Estate. Prices in the group run from $150 to $1,295; half of the proceeds from the collection will go to the Council of Fashion Designers of America to help promote young talent.
The roll out had some hot faces modeling the wears.
Nikki Hilton-Rothschild is seen wearing an adorable sweater with JMB's signature crown as she poses with Alice + Olivia Creative Designer, Stacey Bendet, also in a piece from the line.

Unbeknownst to me, there are people out there who arrange huge piles of logs into beautiful pictures that will gradually disappear as they are burned throughout the cold winter months.
Some really artistic people that live in the woods can't simply throw a log onto a pile like a normal person. They thoughtfully consider a layout and create fun and amazing stacked statue like pictures. It's amazing.

Amy Schumer has been house hunting for something a bit more spacious than cute little West Village spot she unloaded this summer.
The hottest comedian of 2016 isn't waiting for a blockbuster before diving into the deep deep end of the real estate market. She just bought a 4,500 sq ft penthouse on Manhattan's Upper West Side. 190 Riverside, to be exact.
The duplex is perched atop a turn of the century building and features a wall of glass doors, coffered glass ceilings, a custom stone and glass gas fireplace, a wrap around terrace and a separate bedroom wing. Five Bedrooms and five baths should leave plenty of space for guests. Though I wonder if boyfriend Ben is moving in?
