John Cusack: High Fidelity
built 193 days ago
As if London wasn’t sizzling hot enough already, John Cusack, the Hollywood star and gold-standard dreamy sex symbol, is taking up residence in the capital. Word has it the star of High Fidelity and Grosse Pointe Blank is happily ensconced in a loft-style apartment near Oxford Street, with three bedrooms, an exercise area and a state-of-the-art, industrial-style kitchen. While the place is certainly handy for record shops — Cusack, 40, likes his music — it sounds as if whoever’s signing the cheques for his rent is paying through the nose: although Cusack’s temporary home has been on the market for £4m, I hear it’s costing £9,500 a week for a two- or three-month stay.
