When it came to welcoming their little princess, Blue Ivy, into the world in 2012, Beyonce and Jay-Z spared no expense, shelling out $800 per room per night to rent "executive suites" at NYC's Lenox Hill Hospital. Inside: Flat-screen TVs, sofas, brushed-chrome accents, mahogany walls and a kitchenette. Later, when they brought their daughter home, they settled her into a $3500 lucite crib, also owned by Kim Kardashian.

"Gisele and I have eight sisters between us, and there are lots of kids. We built this house as a sanctuary for our family -- a place where we can enjoy being together," Brady tells Architectural Digest of the six-bedroom, 14,000-square foot eco-friendly L.A. home the couple built and moved into in 2013. Perks of the home include a koi-filled moat, walls with three types of Texas limestone and steel doors and window frames.
