Full Episode Summary

With skyrocketing careers, soaring popularity and endless cash-cow potential, these are today's hottest pop stars! From established artists like Justin Timberlake, Beyonce, and Madonna to new favorites like Rihanna, Chris Brown and Taylor Swift, "The Fabulous Life of Posh Pop Stars" shows the perks of the pop life from the inside out. The world of today's hot stars is one where home is a tricked out tour bus and birthdays have been elevated to national holidays.

Shopping, anyone? When you have money to burn, spending sprees come with the territory. Pop stars can totally indulge their every whim and obsession. Just ask Avril Lavigne. She likes to buy things adorned with skulls: a drum set, a birthday cake, even $71,000 skull rings. Then there's Rihanna. With an estimated worth of $2 million, she's developed a taste for modern art. We'll take you to the gallery where she blew thirty-four grand in one afternoon. And we'll uncover a bizarre pop-idol shopping trend: Why are so many music industry darlings obsessed with a little cartoon cat?

On tour, the life of the posh pop star is like one never-ending party. Justin Timberlake has been known to spend as much as $160,000 in just a couple of days out on the road. When it's time to go home, rest assured, these superstars aren't roughing it. Madonna kicks back at her quaint $12 million dollar London pad. Celine Dion has a 4-acre, $12.5 million Florida home in an exclusive island community. And poor Miley Cyrus is still too young to have a place of her own, but don't feel too sad for her. She has her own wing in her family's $6.2 million Southern California mansion, featuring a palatial master suite for the pop princess.

Now that's one chart-topping existence!
