Hi everyone! Today’s discussion is about celebrity homes. I want to know who has ever been to a celebrity’s house or driven past one. I have driven past Russell Simmons’ mansion plenty of times and gotten out to take pictures of it. I have also been by Rev Run and Lil’ Kim’s house.

So, post a comment telling your experience.

Thanks, Kenny
