Russian mogul buys Donald Trump's Palm Beach home for $95 million and plans to tear it down because of mold

House: Dmitri Rybolovlev bought the beachfront mansion 2008 but has decided to destroy the home, that sits on a 6.26-acre property, including a 475-foot-long beach

Plans: Donald Trump (left) sold his 33,000-square-foot home in Palm Beach for $95 million to Russian fertilizer mogul Dmitri Rybolovlev (right), who now plans to tear it down

Some suspect that Rybolovlev may be planning to dividing up the lot into several beachfront lots. 

'It’s clear that the house will be leveled by the end of the year,' the source said.

Trump purchased the home in 2004 in $41.4 million from nursing home tycoon Abe Gosman. 

The real estate mogul spent two years renovating the Florida home and then put it back on the market. 

Gorgeous: The home sits on a 6.26-acre property, including a 475-foot-long beach

Sale: Donald Trump originally bought the home in 2004 for $41.4 million

The sprawling 7 bedroom home had a garage that could accommodate 80 cars. 

The decor included marble floors, bullet-proof windows, mahogany doors, giant skylights and a full-sized ballroom.

Trump, 66, enlisted help from realtor Kendra Todd, who had won season three of his NBC show The Apprentice, to help marketing the gigantic property. 

Now for the wedding! Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux complete renovations on $21m Bel-Air mansion

Move-in ready: Jennifer Aniston bought the Bel-Air mansion for 'a steal' at $21m a year and a half ago, and this week extensive renovations were completed

Jennifer and Justin will finally be able to live in their 8,500-square-foot mansion located in the exclusive Bel-Air area. 

'They are supposed to move in over the weekend,' a source told E! News.

Jennifer had bought two New York apartments for $7.01 million as she planned to move to the East Coast but after deciding to stay in Los Angeles, she sold them for $6.5 million last year.

'She loved them, but her circumstances changed and the space was just wrong,' the source said.

So excited: Jennifer and Justin are said to be moving into their newly renovated dream home this weekend

Busy little bees: Just last weekend landscapers could be seen in the aerial shot scattered all over the 8,500-square foot, 3.5 acre property, working furiously to get the job done

Jennifer's plan for the apartments was to combine them, knocking the penthouse through to the second space on the 17th floor below.

Listing broker Bruce Ehrmann said the penthouse has 'one of the most beautiful terraces in the city, with unobstructed forever views.'

Jennifer was born in Los Angeles, but grew up in New York, although she felt it had changed when she initially moved back at the end of last year.

She explained: 'We tried New York. It was a little rough with the paparazzi. It didn't feel like the New York I grew up in and knew.'

The pool! The 44-year-old actress is surely excited to live in the gated community amongst stars such as Nicholas Cage, Hugh Hefner, and Lauren Bacall

Although Jennifer lost money on her New York apartments, she saved $3 million on her Bel Air home, which was listed with a $24 million listing price. 

She also sold her other Los Angeles home for $36 million. 

The couple have been renting a small house in the Hollywood Hills until their mansion was ready.

She bought the Bel-Air mansion for 'a steal' at $21m a year and a half ago.

Just last weekend Jennifer's construction crew were seen putting the final touches on her renovations for her love nest with fiancé Justin on Saturday.

The landscapers could be seen in the aerial shot scattered all over the 3.5 acre property. 

Soon to be wed: The engaged couple were allegedly planning on marrying this summer but Jen moved the date once she learned Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's wedding was around the same time

'We want to be understood. I've done over 35,000 interviews in my career and as soon as that camera shuts off, everyone always turns to me and says, “Was that OK?” 

'I heard it from President Bush. I heard it from President Obama... I even heard it from Beyoncé in all her Beyoncéness!"

New status: Janet Jackson has officially become a billionaire

Janet Jackson has officially become a billionaire, with her personal wealth exceeding more than $1billion this year.

The 47-year-old star is thought to have made her windfall from an incredible career in entertainment spanning four decades, according to Variety.

Janet reportedly made $458million from various concert tours, a further $304million from movie roles - including the Eddie Murphy comedy The Nutty Professor II and Tyler Perry's box office hit, For Colored Girls - as well as $268million in album sales and $81million in endorsement and sponsorship deals. 

While Janet's late brother, King of Pop Michael Jackson, also amassed a vast fortune over the course of his career - he never achieved billionaire status.

As well as her own fortune, Janet shares the wealth of her billionaire tycoon husband Wissam Al Mana.

Faida za mabinti wa “kisasa” kupiga mizinga mikubwa mikubwa!

Vijana wengi tumekuwa tukilalamika kwamba mabinti wa siku hizi wana mizinga ya reja reja ten mikubwa.

Ila hili jambo ukiliangalizia katika “big screen” ni jambo ambalo linakufanya utafute hela if you really want to be with a girl of your dreams though sio lazima a girl of your dreams awe mpiga mizinga!!!!! Jambo hili zuri nahisi vijana wengi hatujaligundua na badala yake tunalichukulia in a negative way na kubakia tunawalalamikia hawa mabinti, ila kumbe katika hali halisi wanatusaidia. Maana katika hali ya kawaida lets say kama umeajiriwa somewhere, mshahara peke yake hautoshi kumkeep huyo binti unayemuita wa kisasa au wa mizinga! Sasa kulingana na mahitaji yake kuwa makubwa lazima utatafuta njia nyingine za kupata hela tuseme labda utawekeza mahali. Lengo likiwa kuhimili mizinga ya huyo binti na kuendelea kumuweka karibu, ila mwisho wa siku unajikuta katika kuwekeza kwako una make faida zaidi ya hizo demands na kwa maana hiyo unakuwa na salio ambalo unaweza kujifanyia maendeleo yako mengine. Ila kama huyo binti asingekuwa na hizo demands kubwa ungeridhika na mshahara wako, maana utakuwa unawatosha na mwisho wa siku hata kuwekeza mahali huwezi fikiria , na maendeleo yako bila shaka yatakuwa si sawa na yule anayemmiliki binti wa kisasa!!!!!!!!!! Nahitimisha kwa kuwatia moyo mabinti wa kisasa waendelee na moyo wao huo huo wa kupiga mizinga tena mikubwa ili tutoke hapa tulipo kama Taifa!

So, are you missing me, Chris? Rihanna reminds ex of her cheeky side in new snap after he's spotted with Karrueche Tran

'And that's a #WRAP !!!!! #pouritupvideoshoot': This was Rihanna's caption for her provocative image of her bare behind, which she happened to upload in the wake of rumours about her ex Chris Brown reuniting with Karrueche Tran

If Rihanna intended to show him what he was missing out on, she probably hit the mark.

The photo, which appeared to be taken in a make-up room or studio, featured the Stay singer's perfectly toned behind... not an imperfection in sight.

Rihanna wore a pink lacy thong, underneath what was merely the skeleton of a pair of denim shorts.

The shorts were quite literally ripped or cut until they too were nothing more than a thong.

Rihanna refers to 'strip clubs' and 'strippers goin' up and down that pole' in the lyrics to her song Pour It Up, so it's not unlikely that such an outfit may form a part of the daring singer's wardrobe for the video.

Acting the part: Karrueche Tran was on the scene with Chris Brown on Tuesday when he was involved in a minor car accident in Los Angeles, taking snaps of the damage on behalf of the rapper

Rihanna's provocative gesture was rather timely, as rumours that her ex has been gallivanting about with Karrueche again have been running rampant of late.

Karrueche lit the fire with a raunchy Instagram upload on Saturday, her birthday: a snap of her thrusting her naked bottom into the Chris' face.

Alongside the candid picture, she wrote: 'TBT my birthday last year. Who's face am I gonna put my ass in this year? Lmao I'm kidding.'

'TBT my birthday last year. Who's face am I gonna put my ass in this year?': It was Karrueche Tran's birthday on Saturday, and this was what she chose to tweet... before adding that she was 'kidding'

Chris responded to her bizarre with the tweet: 'Happy bday @karrueche.'

Karrueche then sent a simple reply of her own, a heart, adding yet further fuel to rumours the pair are thinking of reuniting.

As if that wasn't enough for Rihanna to stomach, Chris was involved in a minor car accident on Tuesday in Los Angeles after he rear ended another car, and none other than Karreuche was seen standing with him at the scene.

She's back in town: Rihanna was spotted in Long Beach on Monday, after a rather long stint in New York
