Kevin Jonas -- A Ghini and a Bottle
Most 21st birthdays are a string of blurred nightmares followed by a sound sleep behind an alleyway dumpster -- but yesterday, Kevin Jonas' big 2-1 was a sin-free day spent behind the wheel a $225,000 Lamborghini.
There's nothing like reaching the legal drinking age while seated in one of the fastest cars money can buy.

Spelling Sells Her Smaller Home
Tori's already bought a new 6,700 sq. ft. home -- so now it's time to get rid of her old, paltry pad that's not even half that size.
Tori's 3,300 sq. ft. Westwood home is up for grabs for around $2.4 million, which (only) has 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, outdoor dining area, barbecue and solar-powered saltwater pool, according to the L.A. Times.
A few more babies -- and the accompanying magazine photo shoots -- and Tori will soon be able to afford another upgrade.

Bill Gates -- Recession-Proof
For the amount of money Bill Gates is spending on office furniture for his new digs, you could buy yourself an entire office building.
Not much is known about Gates' new venture, bgC3, but TMZ spies tell us the new offices are going to be dope. For his private office alone, he is spending over $2.5 million on furniture from high-end designer B&B Italia. IKEA, it ain't.
He's also shelling out $75K for the coffee bar -- no alcohol will be served on site.
Everything is so top secret at Gates' new office compound, we're told shipments have to go through a metal detector and be inspected by bomb-sniffing dogs. I'm a PC!

The 22-year-old baller just bought this nearly $8 million mansion, which has five bedrooms, five baths, billiard room, walk-thru butler's pantry, Italian marble floors and "30' gold travertine arches at courtyard." And get this -- the pool has its own "lazy river."
The house sits on a the so-called "Street of Dreams" in Longwood, Fla. -- and if you have a couple extra mil laying around, the ridiculous house next door is for sale.

Who Wants To Be a Thousandaire?
Here's another reason why people hate America -- other countries can't even afford to play our games.
"Who Wants to be a Millionaire" just got picked up in Afghanistan, where the prize of one million Afghani is equal to roughly $20,000.
But comparatively speaking, 20K is enough to make you rich in Afghanistan -- the average citizen makes about $340 a year.
Stumped? Your lifelines are 50/50, ask the audience, or send express parchment to a friend.

Mickey & Miley Give Gays the Heave-Ho
For a shirtless guy in red hotpants, you'd think Mickey Mouse would be a little friendlier to the gay community.
Disney is throwing Miley Cyrus a huge 16th birthday bash at Disneyland during the same weekend as the traditional Gay Days, which brings tens of thousands of gays and lesbians to the amusement citadel.
Despite the fact that Miley's actual birthday isn't until November, the park will be shutting down early on October 5 to accommodate Miley and her tween minions.
Of course, the gays are more than welcome to hit up Disney's California Adventure theme park next door -- but who the hell wants to go there?
