De Niro To U.K Realtors: Finalize This


Robert de Niro is joining the migration of Hollywood stars to London, buying a $4.6 million home in the London Docklands that was previously owned by boxer Lennox Lewis.

The London Independent commented today (Tuesday) that the location may be ideal for "the famously shy De Niro." It quoted one real estate agent as saying, "Areas such as Chelsea and Kensington attract a lot of star spotters and as a celebrity you may have to keep your head down. But in the Docklands there are mainly bankers and lawyers who earn a lot of money who are not fazed by neighbors who may be internationally famous."
