They Been Spending Most Their Lives Living In The Urinator's Paradise
Tommy Hilfiger's Family Bids Farewell To The 'House Of Many Bathrooms'

If there's one thing we here at Jossip never get tired of, it's heartwarming tales of how the rich get richer. Which is why we were thrilled to read all about how ambiguously gay designer type Tommy Hilfiger bought his oceanfront East Hampton summer home for $18 million last May, and just sold it for a staggering $26.5 million.

That's "more than $8 million profit!" Page Six excitedly points out. (Also known as $8.5 million). As it turns out, however, there's an excellent explanation for the sudden increase in property value. And it has to do with some combination of Mariah Carey and a cornucopia of bathrooms.

The estate boasts five bedrooms, 512 baths, a media room, an outdoor pavilion with a fireplace, an infinity-edge pool and more than 150 feet of beachfront. Hilfiger actually made even more on the property after renting his place to Mariah Carey last August for $350,000.

512 bathrooms, eh? That would mean that each houseguest has his/her choice of over 100 different lavatories! Which means, assuming Mariah used a different restroom every single day throughout the month of August, there's still only a roughly 1/482 chance that you'll overlap!

Either that or else Page Six made an inadvertently amazing typo.
