Famous people have a curious penchant for homes previously owned by other famous folk. In Los Angeles, Rihanna has just let go of a 40th-floor condo that previously belonged to late "Friends" star Matthew Perry. The Barbadian superstar and billionaire entrepreneur sold the 9,000-square-foot sprawler for a tetch over $20 million, a hefty amount by any standard but, unfortunately for Riri, about $85,000 less than she paid just over a year ago. Oscar winner Jessica Chastain and her Italian fashion exec husband Gian Luca Pasi De Preposulo have hung a $7.5 million price tag on an elegant Manhattan apartment that was once owned by exalted conductor and composer Leonard Bernstein. Situated on the fourth floor of the storied Osborne building directly across from Carnegie Hall, the rambling four-bedroom apartment’s beautifully preserved 19th-century architectural features include mahogany paneled, plaster moldings and leaded-glass transoms made by Tiffany Studios.
