We're recommending some of the most Gaga-appropriate Hamptons homes. You listening, Lady?
Lady Gaga is rich. Actually, she's filthy, stinking rich. Almost overnight, it seems, the sartorially fearless singer went from being an unknown, artsy-fartsy downtown denizen to a world-renowned pop culture icon. According to Forbes magazine the new high-priestess-of-pop earned a toe curling $62M over the last 12 months -- making her one of the highest paid and most powerful performers in all of the land.
Although her reps deny, deny, deny, the latest scuttlebutt is that Lady Gaga has already leased a house in the Hamptons for the summer. In the event that the downtown diva might want to go from a renter to a homeowner, we decided to help by doing a little real estate legwork for Gaga and found four pricey properties in the Hamptons that could be the key to the lock of her real estate dreams. And hey, Gaga? If you do choose one of these, we'd accept a month-long stay as a proper thank you.
Lady Gaga Houses
The eccentric and enigmatic Lady Gaga has been looking to spend some of her new-found fortune on new digs more befitting a Lady of her superstar stature. The New York based cynosure tried to buy a $16.5M house in Beverly Hills last year but settled instead for a 6 bedroom and 8 bathroom rental in the posh Bel Air area of Los Angeles for which she's reportedly paying around $25,000 per month.
Lady Gaga was recently reported to have had a peep at and a poke around a $21,000 per month duplex penthouse apartment at the far western edge of New York City's SoHo neighborhood and, although it's not easy to see Lady Gaga doing anything as mundane as going to the beach, she's also been spotted shopping for a hideaway in the Hamptons. According to reports, Lady Gaga–whose real name is the much less exotic Stefani Germanotta–is looking for something very private and very pricey in a superior south of the Montauk Highway location in the insanely swank even for the Hamptons enclaves of Bridgehampton, Water Mill, and Sagaponack.
Blow it out of the box, baby. If privacy is what Lady Gaga craves and she's willing to part with a mind-numbing amount of dough, she might want to consider the pretty, pristine, and very private Bridgehampton estate of entertainment mogul turned real estate developer Sandy Gallin that's currently listed with a superstars only asking price of $26.9M.
The secluded south of the highway estate sprawls across 14 serene acres and includes a fully rehabbed 6,500 square foot, 7 bedroom and 8 bathroom shingled cottage that sits at the tail end a long private driveway. The extensive grounds consist of wide and vast lawns large enough to land a helicopter, an outdoor lounge with fireplace that's shaded by a trellis dripping with wistera, and a swimming pool uniquely set into the shoreline of the property's private pond.
Sometimes simplicity what is needed to balance the hectic and unforgiving schedule of famous folks like Lady Gaga. In that case, perhaps a simple if insanely expensive ocean front house in Bridgehampton listed at $14.995M is the way to go. The boxy, cedar and glass modern sits high atop a dune with unimpeded and protected 270-degree views up and down the beach.
The airy contemporary includes 4 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms and a loft-like main living space comprised of living room, dining area, and sleek kitchen with adjoining breakfast room wrapped in floor to ceiling windows. A long double infinity edged swimming pool and deck sits between the house and the pool cabana that includes a media room, full bath, spa room, gym and outdoor fireplace.
Lady Gaga is nothing if not theatrical, so perhaps a mansion oozing with operatic flair seems to be just what she needs. A Water Mill compound owned by acclaimed more-is-better decorator Thomas Britt and listed at $12.5M might be perfect if Lady Gaga's looking for a bit of exceedingly tasteful and yet kinda campy excess.
There's plenty of room for Lady Gaga's entourage at this 3.2-acre extravaganza that includes a total of 12 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. There are six bedrooms in the 8,000+ sq. ft. main house, a European villa-style confection with a horizontally striped exterior, while the remainder of the bedrooms are located in the pool house and gigantic guest house that's far larger than the average American home.
The elegant and elaborate grounds include long swathes of unnaturally green grass, an 80-foot-long reflecting pool, extensive and orderly gardens, a stunning double alley of cherry trees planted in 1966, a party pavilion and not just one but two heated swimming pools. And because every home needs one: A miniature Japanese pagoda.
Although it might be difficult for Lady Gaga to get around the house in a pair of her signature and suicidally high platform heels, the 'Bioscleave House' in East Hampton is as wonderfully bizarre and conceptually twisted as she is. Designed by maverick Japanese architects Arakawa + Gins and listed at $4M, the sculptural, high-concept, and multi-colored house challenges of the very definition of a house as a haven of comfort and sanctuary.

ReplyWhat exactly IS a gaga? GagGag would be more appropriate.
ReplyReally, who cares where she lives as long as it is NOT NEXT TO ME!!! Most of those she appeals to are so broke they couldn't own a home even if they wanted one! They only thing I care aout is 'WHEN WILL SHE LEAVE TEXAS?"
ReplyIt seems to me, that all one has to do is to act "outrageous" as GaGa has done and people pay big bucks and they become millionaires. We are a SICK society!!! As for me, I think she is an embarrassment and should go HIDE somewhere! If she is looking for a house, she can afford an island, find one, go live on it!
