This Just In: Christina Aguilera to Ditch Her Digs

Rumor has it, according to Real Estalker that Christina Aguilera and husband Jordan Bratman have put their 5,411-square-foot, 5-bedroom, 7-bath Hollywood Hills home on the market for nearly $8 million. Aguilera reportedly purchased the Steve Hermann-designed digs for $5 million in 2003, which was her third house at the tender age of 22. The pad boasts, "living and dining rooms, a screening lounge with wet bar, a 25-foot waterfall, and unobstructed views," and is decked in classic Hermann style, head to toe in neutral tones, full of fur throws and animal-hide rugs, and sleek and oh-so-Hollywood with black leather chairs throughout. I'm actually impressed; I expected "X-tina's" digs to bit more Z Gallerie meets b-baller (i.e. wildly tacky), and it's actually architecturally and visually intriguing. However, I'm baffled by the cowhide LC4 Chaise Lounge in the bathroom, and the closet full of white buttondowns. But, I guess that's just staging. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Christina Aguilera Takes Her Price Tag Down a Note

Back in April, I let you know that Christina Aguilera and husband Jordan Bratman were preparing to ditch their Steve Hermann-designed Hollywood Hills digs, if a doting buyer were willing to part with a cool $8 million. Well, according to Real Estalker, the couple has flown the coop, but are still sitting on the unsold property. While they've moved into the Osbournes' former abode, their Hermann-designed home, like many houses around the country, remains unsold. So, the couple has decided to chop a little over one million smackers off the asking price, bringing it down to $6.9 million. Ouch, right? Well, actually Aguilera paid $5 million for the property back in '03, so she'll still be making a nice couple mil. on the property — if it sells at this price. And the price was likely inflated to begin with, considering its couture Steve Hermann label. Check out more details and lots of photos of the digs in my previous post.
