Got too much money? Want to spank some of it on a multi-fireplaced Beverley Hills mansion? Well, good news - Kanye West's pad is on the market for just $8.69 million. He only bought it in March this year, so maybe he's discovered it's got rising damp or something. That, or he's astutely about to make a cool $1.69 million profit on the price he paid for it.

Meanwhile Flea (not his real name) of Red Hot Chili Peppers was probably rather pleased not to have been at his Malibu home recently, as it got caught in the path of the recent wildfires and was "burnt to a crisp".

Flea doesn't seem to spend any money on shirts, so let's hope those savings were put into an insurance plan of some kind. And let's also hope the insurance people don't get all tricksy about paying out. And let's hope that if they do get all tricksy Flea doesn't attack them with a ferret, like he did to The Dude in The Big Lebowski. That's not the way to settle insurance disputes.
