070506 Spelling Mansion.jpg
Not one to waste any time with pleasantries, Candy Spelling is supposedly putting the infamous Spelling Mansion on the market for a cool $150 Million. Clearly there will be hordes of buyers clammoring to place bids, because who doesn't need separate rooms for the doll collection and gift-wrapping? I can barely stand having to keep my shoes in the same room as my sweaters, let alone the dolls and the tissue paper. TMZ has the story:

Sources in the real estate industry say Westside Estate Agency (WEA) has a pocket listing on the 56,000 square foot estate, meaning it is is quietly being shopped among realtors and select buyers. The mansion, located in the exclusive Holmby Hills area of L.A., was completed in 1991 for around $47 million, which includes $10 million for the land.

One real estate source says Candy Spelling has let a lot of people on the staff go and that the buzz is that she is going to shut the house down so it can be shown by realtors.

Aaron Spelling passed away two weeks ago, so, it seems like about the right about of time to grieve, asses the value of the house, and prepare to sell the shit out of it, right? I like to think Candy's just trying to amass as much money as possible so it stings that much more when she doesn't let Tori have any of it.

062406 Aaron Spelling Tori Spelling.jpg
Television producer and Hollywood icon Aaron Spelling passed away yesterday after suffering a stroke on the 18th. He was 83 years old. Spelling left an indelible mark on the television world with his hit series such as Charlie's Angels, Dynasty, Beverly Hills 90210, and Melrose Place. This is, of course, only a tiny taste of what Spelling accomplished. Everyone has a special place in their heart for at least one of Spelling's projects. My thoughts are with his children Tori and Randy, and 90210 fans everywhere.
