TMZ reports that ARod has left the building--that is, his 9 bedroom, 11 bathroom Miami Beach manse, which he just sold for $30 million. Though the Yankee slugger took an $8 million pay cut in the price of the home, originally listed at $38 mil, he bought it in 2010 for $7.4 million, raking in a pretty impressive profit nonetheless. The buyer, TMZ says, is a Palm Beach celeb. Rush Limbaugh? Rod Stewart? G-d forbid Donald Trump? No one knows--yet. Says our real estate mole, "It's a couple from Palm Beach." The home is not so far from Matt Damon's, which is currently on the market for the bargain basement price of $20 million. True high rollers, however, may want to consider the Versace mansion, which just dropped its asking price today from $100 million to $75 million.

Say it isn't so! #RHOM adds a few viewers on veep debate night!
Blame it on the train wreck effect, the Bravo bait and switch which duped
viewers into watching straight off a preview of the brutal, blistery part deux
of the reunion of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, or perhaps just
general disinterest in the vice presidential debate (which had way more
interesting drama and faces that actually were able to show
expression--holla, Joe Biden!), but last night's 9 p.m. showing of The
Real Housewives of Miami had 870,000 viewers--abysmal still, yes, but
up from last week's even more abysmal 847,000. We weren't even going to post
about the plummeting viewership anymore, but the addition of 23,000 viewers was
worthy of a few words. Again, for perspective, the veep debate attracted
approximately 51.4 million people who care about the future of this country or
just wanted to see if VP Biden would do anything offensive (he did), while
Project Runway, also on at 9, had 1.9 million people watching.
