In Honor of the College Admissions Scandal

As a fine purveyor of content devoted to how wild and bad the very wealthy can be, even I was shocked at the news of a huge racketeering scandal in which lots of rich parents do illegal crimes in order to get their kids into certain universities, instead of you know, doing legal crimes like paying for buildings or having lunch with the dean Carmela Soprano style. 

The scam was apparently orchestrated by a Mr. William Singer, whose organization The Key Worldwide Foundation was used to disguise parental bribes to athletics coaches and other school personnel under the guise of a nonprofit. Anonymous sources tell McMansion Hell that Mr. Singer has unfortunately had to sell his Newport Beach, CA beach house in the wake of the scandal. Fortunately, McMansion Hell has received a photograph of said house from multiple sources: 

Indeed, as many are aware, multiple celebrity couples were wrapped up in the scene as well. Felicity Huffman and William Macy, are one such couple. And while an exterior photo of Huffman and Macy’s home remains elusive, here is perhaps the best of the interior shots obtained by McMansion Hell. 

Please note the decorative color-coded books and the sad ukelele casually draped across a stack of dictionaries, both of which are totally used by the residents. 

Finally, we have the “Spanish Colonial” house of Lori Loughlin and Massimo (of Target fame) Giannulli, who paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to secure their Instagram influencer daughter a spot at USC.  

McMansion Hell would like to thank sources both anonymous and public from Twitter for providing these images, and for the grossly unequal shitshow that is the American college admissions process and its gaming by the rich and powerful for contributing to this content, which, the reader is reminded, is covered by fair use.
