Kanye West’s Calabasas, California ranch has seen better days. 

His once-glamorous $2.2 million property now lies in utter disrepair, with the latest photos showing it abandoned and decrepit, according to the Daily Mail.

This stands in stark contrast to the $60 million family compound his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, still enjoys with their four children. Since their 2021 split, Kim has maintained the lavish Hidden Hills estate, just a stone’s throw — 8 miles, to be precise — from West’s crumbling ranch.

Purchased in 2018, West’s ranch was a hub for his Sunday Service gatherings and the headquarters of his Donda Academy. But...

Los Angeles, CA

Jim Carrey has hacked the price of his long-time Los Angeles estate once again.

The “Yes Man” actor, 62, initially listed his sprawling 10,954-square-foot Brentwood mansion for a hefty $28.9 million in February 2023.

But the lavish pad has failed to find a buyer, prompting Carrey to repeatedly slash the price. The first cut came two months later, dropping to $27 million. By October 2023, he’d trimmed it down again to $24 million.

Now, Carrey has dropped the asking price even further, settling at $21.9 million — a staggering $7 million reduction.







The relentless price cuts highlight the brutal reality facing California’s luxury real...

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.
