Madonna's $40M London Style Townhouse In Manhattan

Josh loposer — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 16:00:00 GMT

Although her adoption of Mercy James may not be going so well, Madonna still has something to smile about: a $40M townhouse in Manhattan's Upper East Side with 36 rooms, 9 fireplaces, and a London-ish vibe, so she won't get homesick.

“The townhouse is perfect for Madonna,” a source told the paper. “She’s trying to recreate London in New York City, and this is in the style of a London townhouse.”

According to a broker, no other property in the area has ever sold for more than $20 million... until now. It's not clear whether Madonna's desire for a new home had anything at all to do with her plans for adopting Mercy James, or not. The timing could be coincidental.

Either way, Madonna's three kids Lourdes, 12, Rocco, 8, and David, 3, will no doubt have a pretty awesome crib on the Upper East Side. Aside from it being humongous and luxurious, the place reportedly has a pretty lively atmosphere. As in, you can actually feel the subway trains rattling the floor in some rooms.

Bedtime was a Goodtime for Keri Russell

Everyone wants to be able to take their kids to work and have them see the things you do and the person you are at work. The set of Bedtime Stories was very kid-friendly and she took River to work often.

Keri Russell says she had a great time working with all the boys on the set of Bedtime Stories.

She said, “Everybody had kids there, so it was really fun. One of the babies would stop by and everybody would stop and play with the kids — it was really like that. An elephant was on the set one day, and everybody brought their kids and took pictures with the elephant. Or I was dressed as a mermaid one day, and all the kids took pictures with me as a mermaid.”

Oh my, it sounds like it was a lot of fun. I don't think that my kids enjoy my work environment. It's definitely not as fun as Keri's.

"Sometimes I end up having to wipe my son's nose on my shirt, so it can't be silk and cost $800."

Can you guess which practical Hollywood/New York mama said that?

It was none other than River's mom, Keri Russell.

How many times have you thought the same thing about some of the clothes you see celebrities wear?
