Janet Jackson Shops for Apartments

...with the kind of moolah some people would spend on purchasing a small island.

From MSNBC.com:

The singer went apartment hunting recently and was interested in a 9,000-square-foot "crib" in a high-rise in Manhattan's Columbus Circle. She was considering a move there with boyfriend/producer Jermaine Dupri, according to Upscale magazine. If the deal goes through, it would be one of the highest prices ever paid for a New York apartment. It's not a record-breaker, though: last year media mogul Rupert Murdoch paid $44 million for a 19-room apartment on Fifth Avenue. While apartment hunting, Jackson reportedly confirmed rumors that she had briefly dated Matthew McConaughey, though she is very serious about Dupri and would like to have children with him -- while denying buzz that the two are secretly married.

I love that she admitted to dating crazy-ass Matthew McConaughey. And as for her marriage, if anybody can keep that shit a secret, you know Janet can, although I've never really understood the motivation behind that nonsense.
