The company has been asked to merely stain the existing wood cabinets in the kitchen … with a staggering $57,000 price tag!

The contract between the actress and all those doing work on her property has a few interesting clauses: First, any worker is prohibited to approach Berry while in the home or on the premises. Second, no one is allowed to speak to the A-list Miss B at any time.

She sounds like a real winner. I know that’s a lot of money but what if someone needs to know where the bathroom is?

Fine, then if I saw the house was on fire I wouldn’t say a damn word to her.
