Chaz Bono Under Attack From Warren Beatty and Annette Bening’s Transgender Son

Why can’t the transgender children of celebrities just get along? Stephen Ira, the transgender son of Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, had some nasty things to say about Chaz Bono, the transgender son of Sonny and Cher and a former contestant on “Dancing With the Stars.”

According to “The New York Post,” Ira took offense at some statements Bono made in “The New York Times” last May and accuses Bono of suffering from “deep-seated misogyny.” The statements in question include Bono comparing transgenderism to a birth defect. Bono, who had gender reassignment surgery in 2009, also said that he feels less tolerant of women now. As he puts it, all that testosterone makes it harder to be around people who gossip and talk too much. Meanwhile, Ira appears to be irate claiming that Bono appointed himself a representative for all transgender people.

In fact, Bono’s comments were made in the context of a documentary, “Becoming Chaz,” about his own personal experience. As far as the gender differences in how men and women talk, many highly respected social scientists would back up Bono. He’s also got his longtime girlfriend Jennifer Elia on his side. Maybe best of all, Chaz Bono doesn’t blame his mother for everything. He says that he doesn’t think that the way he grew up had any effect on this issue.

Now, maybe Ira is the one who needs to do some growing up although he does concede that Bono’s cha-cha is remarkable. Bono and his representatives have so far declined to respond to Ira.

Categories: sofia vergara

Our research here at RichCrib today led us to Delray Beach, Florida, where one Sofia Vergara resides.

Haven’t heard of her? Than you’ve probably recently awoken from a coma. Welcome to 2011! Vergara lights up the screen on television’s hottest comedy, Modern Family on ABC.

Besides finally learning where the celeb kicks up her heels when away from the “Family” set, we also learned about her zaftig struggles — “zaftig” referring to her ample…well, form.

She reveals in the Daily Mail:

“…one time years ago, I remember my publicist [at the time] told me: “I think you should just reduce your boobs because nobody’s going to take you seriously here.”

Take her seriously? Two consecutive Emmy nominations puts that ish to rest. Rock on Ms. Vergara. Va va va voom…

Courtney Cox’s Private Celebrity Home

Long before former Friends star Courtney Cox became an actress, she dreamed of being an architect . Although the Scream queen decided to pursue acting, her passion for decorating and design has never left her. This can be seen in her beautiful Malibu celebrity home. Cox spared no expense on this elaborate home that sits high above the Pacific Ocean and has a tennis court, 2 acres of property, guest cottages and a salt water swimming pool.  Courtney took part in every aspect of making her celebrity home a home she loves and adores.

Her visions for her new elegant home was the look and feel of a modern barn according to an interview she gave Elle. Really, a barn? I guess that makes sense being a Cougar and all. However, Courtney felt that the house was to dark and needed a lot of sprucing up so she called in a team of experts.  She even needed the tennis courts to just have that perfect color. She went with lighter and brighter colors and accented the home with white walls, gorgeous hard wood flooring, and bronzed and steel trim. Creating a simple yet sophisticated look.

The kitchen is quite stunning as it over looks the ocean and vast beaches and is decorated with earth tones to  help blend in with the natural trees and the beauty of the property. This home truly has it all. A place for friends and family members to crash, a tennis court for those morning workouts, a screening room and even a salt water pool.  She even through a lava pit to add even more flair to her celebrity home. Look out Malibu, there is a Cougar on the loose! Since David Arquette no longer seems to be in the picture, they are separated for the pat year, who knows what Courtney Cox will do in her new home. Best wishes Courtney!

 

The Obamas… Before They Were The Obamas

Pop quiz! What major American city fostered the Prez and his family before the big White House move in not that long ago?

If you said Tuscon, Fargo, Portland, Miami, Corpus Christi, Annapolis, etc. etc… are you sure you’re actually American?! Jeez.

The correct answer is Chicago. Also acceptable would have been “The Windy City,” “Capone-Ville,” and, a la Kanye West, “Chi-Town.”

The Obamas were Chicago celebrities, to be sure. They counted Hyde Park, among the Windy City’s winning neighborhoods, as their crib locale of choice.

the President and First Lady out to dinner in Chi-Town

It seems as if Hyde Park loyalty was a significant crux in his presidential campaign. The Weekly Standard quotes one of Obama’s banners as saying, “Despite national fame, Barack Obama remains a Hyde Parker to the core.”

Just what we love in a governmental top dog. Loyalty to country, loyalty to Chicago… his shining city.

George Clooney and His Luxury Homes….WHAT is the Big Deal?!

Categories: Crib, George Clooney

What do we want for Christmas? Someone to sit us down, preferably with some vanilla soymilk and chocolate-coated potato chips, and riddle us this: Why is George Clooney so effin popular?

He strikes us as an average Joe with ho-hum talent. He’s not short on charisma. He’s not long on it either. Just a general guy who’s about 25% hotter than the typical guy who saunters down the concrete.

Yet movies like Syriana, Michael Clayton, and — of course — that behemoth series of Oceans gambler films landed him on the map to stay. We wondered where he stayed when not filming, smiling nondistinctly, or inspiring daddy fantasies in twenty-somethings everywhere.

Turns out that George is a real estate junkie. Last we heard, Clowney… er, Clooney purchased a chic villa in Laglio. He also incited a bidding war for his OTHER villa in Lake Cuomo, Italy, worth a reported $26 million.

So maybe THAT’s why Clooney always has to hold a panty count after a red carpet stroll. An average Joe who buys and sells villas like dog biscuits in Petco? He’s actually pretty easy on the eyes, now that we think about it…

Tiger Woods Mansion is a Luxury Florida Man Pad!

Tiger Woods moved into his Man Pad!

Most men that get divorced after being caught out by their wife normally end up penniless and living in a rented apartment. However life for the rich and famous is slightly different. In fact you can get caught out with not just one women affair but several and end up living like a king in a big fat beautiful celebrity crib.

Tiger Woods is a great example of how celebrity divorce can end up in a pretty good situation. Tiger now has the freedom of the world without any one stopping his swings. The Golfing hero now has a man pad or a bachelor home fit for a MTV style rapper.

Tiger Woods went for a $60 million mansion on the exclusive Jupiter Island in Florida. Tiger’s lawyers must have been damm good. No downsizing here!

Following their divorce – which is rumored to have cost Woods $100 million Tiger went to work on the celeb mansion, which overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, boasts huge windows for incredible sea views.

The home features

  • Mega master bedroom – with, a little ironically,
  • His-and-hers bathrooms – with three further bedroom suites
  • Basement
  • Wine cellars
  • Cinema
  • Games room
  • Boathouse
  • Garages
  • Four buildings that link to the main house
  • Golf training studio

Jupiter Island in Martin County, Florida is a celebrities paradise location

Unusual Celebrity Baby Names

Maybe celebrities name their children unique names just because they are celebrities, or maybe they they do it so that their children will always stand out in a crowd. Whatever the reason, here is a list of some of the best.

 

1.Alabama Luella

Born to TV stars Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler. Can you imagine naming your baby after a state? I actually enjoy unique names, and this one falls into the category of the ones I like.

 

 

 

2.Apple

She’s the daughter of actress Gwyneth Paltrow and singer Chris Martin. I like unique baby names, and there isn’t anything fruity about this fruit name! Maybe the mother thought how much she adored your precious new gift and wanted the tiny tot to always remember she was the apple of her eye. This name is sweet as pie!

3.Audio Science

I do not know where the parents of Audio were struck by the inspiration behind this baby name, but I have to admit, it will probably end up in a list all by itself. Very unusual, don’t you think? This baby was born to actress Shannyn Sossamon and Dallas Clayton.

4.Banjo

Now there’s a good ol’ country name! This boy may grow up to be the best banjo picker in the world. Who know’s? But I do know the name is catchy, cute, and unique. Banjo is the son of actress Rachel Griffiths and Andrew Taylor.

5.Beckett Cypheridge
Imagine this poor child trying to learn to spell its name! Melissa Etheridge and Julie Cypher are the proud parents of this little mister. I love the name Beckett and Cypheridge appears to be a combination of both mom and mom’s  name.

 

6. Coco

Are you coo-coo for Coco? Well, apparently the parents of Coco, Courteney Cox and actor David Arquette are! For sure, this name will carry an unending legacy. 

 

7.Diva Muffin

Well, they asked for it! Having a “diva” for a daughter…now that’s a handful! And Muffin is cute as a cupcake. She is the daughter of singer Frank and Gail Zappa. Of course who could forget Moon Unit?

 

Is Justin Bieber Ready To Be a Father?

If all the allegations prove to be true, Justin Bieber is a father, but is he really ready for fatherhood? Ready or not, he might be in for a lifestyle change.

Outside of his popularity with girlfriend Selena Gomez, his singer career has taken roots and his life as a celebrity will always be in the spotlight. This may be a good reason, along with his millions in the bank, why the thousands of girls who wish he belonged to them will try and capitalize on trying to own him. Or perhaps the all American Innocent Justin Bieber is really not so innocent?

Regardless of what happened behind stage that night in October of last year, Justin has a lot of cleaning up to do. Whether it was a hoax or ends up being the truth, his reputation has been tarnished and will forever follow him. This is nothing new for a celebrity. Stars are always in the spotlight and rumors are always circulating, true or not true. It may be something Justin Bieber will have to live with for years and years.

The question remains the same: Is Justin Bieber ready to be a father? If the baby is really his, it can only be hoped he does what good father should do and become the daddy he needs to be to his child.
