In November 1957 Jayne bought a 40-room Mediterranean-style mansion and had it painted pink, with cupids surrounded by pink fluorescent lights, pink furs in the bathrooms, a pink heart-shaped bathtub, and a fountain spurting pink champagne. Her husband built a heart-shaped swimming pool. After 1967 other owners included: Rita Greenland, Ringo Starr, Mamma Cass Elliot, and Engelbert Humperdink. The house was then sold to developers and demolished in 2002.

ReplyDeleteFur bathrooms! That must get gross.
ReplyDeleteI love it!
That was my first thought too. Still amazing though. Too bad it was torn down.
DeleteSo cool! It's like a life-sized Barbie Dream House! What a shame it got demolished so we can't tour this palace of pink.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the peek inside!
