Celebrity Real Estate exclusiveThe $88M LA mansion everyone wanted but no one could close finally lands a buyer after 11 years

Add The New York Post on GoogleA glamorous Holmby Hills estate once asking $88 million — and formerly home to the late fashion designer Max Azria — has found a buyer again, in yet another chapter of its turbulent history, Gimme Shelter has learned.
Made for entertaining, the estate was last asking $43.5 million after lingering on and off the market for 11 years. The final sale price remains unknown.
The deal for the sprawling estate at 10250 W. Sunset Blvd., which sits on 2.8 acres, has not yet closed, so anything can still happen. But prospective buyers can no longer tour it, brokers say.

Jennifer Lopez also eyed the estate while she was with Ben Affleck, and again after their split, “with admiration and intent,” a source told Gimme Shelter.
Estate Azria — formerly known as Maison du Soleil — is coveted for its privacy. It features a Georgian Colonial main house built by architect-to-the-stars Paul Williams in 1939, plus separate structures for guests, work and entertainment.
Outside, there’s an infinity pool, a glass-enclosed tennis court with stadium seating, a Japanese garden and teahouse, additional Mediterranean gardens, a Moroccan-inspired bathhouse with an authentic hammam, a formal French courtyard and a working greenhouse.

A long, gated driveway leads to the home, which opens to a grand foyer. Design details include parquet wood floors, white paneling, columns, moldings, large entertaining rooms and French doors that open to outdoor terraces and gardens.
Two years ago, billionaire Ron Burkle made a winning $30 million bid for the property at an auction run by Concierge Auctions. But the deal — whose terms were fought over in court — never closed.
Max and Lubov Azria — the third family to own the property in its 87-year history — bought it for $14.4 million in 2005. They first listed it for $85 million in 2015, then raised the price to $88 million in 2016. Max Azria, the Tunisian-born designer known for democratizing fashion with his brand BCBG Max Azria, died in 2019. By 2023, the estate was asking $55 million before dropping to its lowest ask, $39 million, last year.

Williams, the first Black member of the American Institute of Architects, designed the home for “Amos ‘n’ Andy” star Charles Correll for $70,000 in 1939. At 12,000 square feet, it was his largest creation at the time.
His other clients included Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, Frank Sinatra, Tyrone Power and Barbara Stanwyck. He’s also known for his famed revamp of the Beverly Hills Hotel.
In 1978, Oscar-winning writer and novelist Sidney Sheldon — who created “The Patty Duke Show,” “I Dream of Jeannie” and “Hart to Hart” — bought the Sunset estate and reportedly doubled its size before selling it to the Azrias.
The bedrooms are upstairs, overlooking the landscaped grounds. The main suite comes with a marble fireplace, sitting area and walk-in closets.

The estate also features a 6,000-square-foot structure with a home theater, lounge and home office with a gold-leaf ceiling.
The listing brokers are Mauricio Umansky and Farah Levi of The Agency.

Sydney Sweeney Struts in Micro Shorts in New 4th of July American Eagle Campaign After Controversy
Sydney Sweeney is back and better than ever in a new American Eagle ad.
Sweeney, 28, stunned in an all-denim look while posing on the beach for a 4th of July campaign, which launched on Wednesday, July 1. The Euphoria star rocked a denim Bow-Front Vest, which retails for $54.95, featuring adjustable halter straps, a plunging neckline and straps that tie in the front.
Sweeney paired the look with low-rise Micro Shorts ($49.95), which were complete with a dark wash and distressed finish.
For glam, the Anyone But You star stunned with dewy skin, sun-kissed cheeks, long lashes and lined, pink lips. Her blonde bob was parted down the middle and styled in beachy waves.
In one pic, the It Girl closed her eyes and beamed for the camera while sitting in the sand. She also looked over her shoulder in another pic, with her hands in the back pockets of her cheeky bottoms.
Sweeney also looked her best in a promotional video. In the clip, she danced on the beach while lighting sparklers. “Syd for Short,” a message across the screen read.
This isn’t the first time Sweeney has posed for American Eagle. In July 2025, she went under fire for modeling a denim jacket and pants with the double entendre, “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans.”
The statement quickly sparked debate about race and beauty standards for the double play on “genes.”

Trump's Annual Earnings Skyrocketed to $2.2 Billion in 2025 ... for Some Reason
July 1, 2026
Making money is hard. Just ask Donald Trump. Back in 2022, House Democrats released years of the then-former and now-current president’s tax returns, which showed that Trump the entrepreneur was significantly less successful than The Art of the Deal would have you believe. They painted a picture of a floundering businessman who was doing his best to dodge taxes and scrape together income, something Trump mastered throughout his long career.
But now, it appears that Trump has finally found an industry that works: open corruption, crypto scams, and nepotistic crony capitalism that siphons off wealth, rakes in gifts, and feeds them into his personal coffers. He just needed to become president of the United States.
Trump revealed in financial disclosures this week that he has made $2.2 billion in 2025, up from $622 million in 2024, the year before he returned to the White House. The astronomical sum includes a diverse portfolio of investments and businesses, but is mostly comprised of one brazen cryptocurrency scam: World Liberty Financial, a crypto company that offers the $TRUMP memecoin. Trump made a staggering $1.4 billion on crypto last year, fueled both by getting his supporters to buy into $TRUMP and a massive private deal in which a UAE-linked investment firm paid almost $500 million for a 49 percent stake in World Liberty Financial.
But let’s break down what that means in simple terms. One: Trump sells a memecoin to his followers, using his personal social media channels to boost it. This is basically the same scam Trump has been running for years. If you’ve been on his mailing lists since 2016, you’ve been inundated with ads for physical Trump coins, digital trading cards, and all sorts of commemorative and allegedly collectible memorabilia. Crypto is essentially the same grift, with the added flavor that Trump can pass it off as an “investment” opportunity, something that may pay dividends for the everyday Americans who are duped into buying it. Trump has also taken a host of actions benefiting the crypto industry — and thus, his and his family’s finances — since retaking office, while touting the industry publicly.

Trump claims that he isn’t “involved” in the running of these businesses, which is about as flimsy of an excuse as you can get. “We have funds that run that money,” he told reporters on Wednesday.
Q: Your financial disclosure shows you had a very lucrative year last year. What message does this send to average Americans?
— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) July 1, 2026
TRUMP: Well, you know, I don't get involved. We have funds that run my money
Q: But you are benefitting. We're talking billions of dollars
TRUMP: Well… pic.twitter.com/y0CVPXc4NB
In reality, Trump and his family are the only ones getting rich. But it’s the other half of that windfall that’s even more concerning. While garden-variety crypto-grift is bad, the dark money investment in a Trump-owned company by a firm that is linked to the government of the UAE suggests that foreign influence could be playing a large role in the growth of Trump’s personal fortune. In other words, he’s basically getting a payout from the government of another nation.
This isn’t the first time Trump has engaged in open corruption with members of a foreign nation. His comments about his financial disclosure on Wednesday came on the tarmac in front of his new private plane, also known as Air Force One, which was paid for and gifted to him by the Qatari government, and retrofitted with hundreds of millions of taxpayer money.
“You want a Pulitzer Prize? A picture of the plane.” Trump joked.

Trump took his first flight on the Qatari-gifted jet shortly after. “Frankly, we couldn’t build a plane like this because we wouldn’t be willing to spend the kind of money necessary,” Trump said. “They spent top dollars.”
The plane is valued at roughly $400 million. The government will not retain ownership of the plan after Trump leaves office. It will instead be gifted to his presidential library.
