It’s like in Sims when you accidentally build a house that’s too big, because you have no reference, and you don’t have enough furniture to fill the space.
Or you are like "I'm sure when I buy more packs I'll be able to fill those spaces" and then you never do or they never do, or the rooms are too small for those big items, but too big for the normal item options, and you get tired of reusing the same decorations and set pieces to fill it out more.
@@SadLoserCanjuju omg yes lol. i used to build huge mansions in minecraft just bc i could, but i always had trouble filling it up and got so frustrated. so now i just build tiny rooms and add onto them whenever i need more space lol
They actually made some great videos on the places like the Plaza Hotel and New York Library that actually walked you through a lot of the architecture, history, and design of the buildings. I wish they made more videos like that instead of celebrity home tours. Only 2 or 3 out of every 10 home tours they do ever have interesting and classy architecture and interior design and the rest is ridiculously luxurious and ugly shit.
Remember that these rooms are often designed by the "family head" to spend time with family, but they often do not care about it. A lot of people actually make theatres in their basements to enjoy with their families, but all other people would rather chill in a bright living room. These also aren't necessarily very rich people, as all you need for that is a projector, a sound system, a device to play back video and a few chairs/sofas. All are common items that can be found for fairly cheap if you know what you're looking for.
I had a friend growing up who has a private theater and a sauna in her basement. She rarely went down there, and that’s where all the cool stuff was at.
"So I thought it would be cool if I put a rail system connecting my house to my other houses" is one of those phrases I thought I would only hear in reference to Minecraft.
And that is how you launder money. "Why yes, Mr. IRS, I made $200,550,876.97 from my private arcade business... in my home... I don't even know what cocaine tastes like."
Can confirm, no one knows exactly where Justin Bieber was when Drew recorded this video, therefore, it’s 99.99% probable proof he was potentially there at that time, possibly.
Worked as a private chef for a while, I personally really liked having a seperated kitchen. Was able to keep my head down and actually work rather than deal with old gremlins trying to show off their wealth like I care
“It’s hard to just ignore them.. so I just lied” is THE funniest thing from this video. Probably because I would have done the exact same thing in that situation.. Why were there so many limes???
I've seen one where they pointed at a bowl of lemons and said something to the effect of "I don't know why we have that many. My wife says they look nice. We have absolutely no need for them though"
If you aren’t holding extravagant balls and having everyone stay over in their own room along with their own servants etc, then you don’t deserve your mansion. Them’s the rules.
@@bigjedimullet Honestly chandeliers look pretty cool, I'd have one in my house if I had unlimited money. Only one though, too many would just make all of them not special.
Who thought that putting out a display of nothing but dozens of limes was even a good idea? Like they’re limes, it looked so weird and not normal at all no one has that many limes or displays them like that
@@micaylarobbins5727 especially because she said she didn't know it was there and it was just set dressing like i know that's how reality shows work but it just takes away from "exploring celebrity homes" when it's not even theirs
@@marisleong8725 it's not literally a set. It's her home it was just "set dressed" to look better for photos. Same thing in the David Harbour AD video, he has candles around his bathtub and mentions they aren't usually there but his interior designer put them there for the video
My mom has decor in her kitchen of fake fruits, most of which she can't eat either from allergies or heart medication. "You like pineapple, huh?" "Nope, I'd swell up and die, but they match my oven mitts."
@@mattsaracen7 oh my bad yeah i meant set dressed lol but yeah it just kind of takes away from a "homey" environment unless that's how their home actually is. its really uncomfortable to watch tbh, i just wished they'd live everything as it is instead of trying to make it look better
Oh, the editing at 1:08 is a really nice detail! Like the video was already recorded at that point, since he has it on his phone, but he made the decision to add the little skit. Rich people might have bad taste, but Drew’s taste is great
Well, dehydrated means that something needs water to function, like when you're thirsty, while dehumidified means that all fluid has been extracted from it. So it's technically correct.
I read this comment and was like "Omg this is so funny, lemme like it-" and urm...I'd already liked it???? BUT I DIDN'T RECOGNIZE IT????? WHHAAAAAT????
one of my fav artist, "machine girl" does venues and concerts and for some reason I though about him doing a private concert. It was extremely uncomfortable to think about.
Probably a Cardi B concert... imagine her full costume, singing WAP in the middle of your living room to you and your close relatives. I'm cool with my Spotify on speaker tyvm.
Was buddies with a rich kid. His mom themed every room in thier mansion and he had no say about what his theme was. It was like he was living in a cabin he didn’t choose to live in since his was this odd like rustic cabin theme. So odd and plastic life feeling.
I feel like rich people don't understand that all the huge mansions and castles in history didn't just have one rich couple in them. They had hundreds of servants, their whole family tree, as well as large groups of guests living there with them. They were expected to host huge events and had extravagance to impress even more elite guests. In the case of castles, they also had troops and huge compounds with everything they could ever need. Everything was accounted for, and there was logical reason for them never even visit large parts of the house. Building these huge twenty bedroom mansions makes no sense in the modern world, so of course you're trying to fill it with nonsense rooms and furniture.
as a person with adhd the idea of having entire rooms dedicated to specific hobbies like flower cutting sounds simultaneously like a dream and a nightmare
I just can't imagine owning a movie theater, a bowling alley, an arcade, or any of that shit in my house and not sharing it with everybody. It just blows me away thinking most of these sick rooms are empty while they're doing some boring shit
Ok this might sound weird but even if I had all those money I'd prefer to go out to those places, I mean aren't those also places to socialise? I'd feel super lonely just by thinking that i have a whole ass empty arcade or bowling alley in my basement
I worked for a family of five (parents and three young children) who lived in a 52-room mansion, with a bowling alley, movie theater, indoor basketball court, two pools, etc. Most of the rooms were literally empty - they didn't have enough furniture to furnish them all and had no need to even enter most of the house. The children were too young to take advantage of the entertainments, the father was always away on business, and the mother was always out at yoga or the gym. It was all so unncessary and obscene.
It's kind of heartbreaking to see useless things like flower cutting rooms and unused rooms when there are so many families crammed into one bedroom apartments or living in hotel rooms
I dont get why someone would need so many rooms. Id be fine with a bedroom, living room, pool room, dart room, chess room, bar, home cinema, afternoon tea nook, dining room, second dining room for fancier dinners, breakfast room, home gym and maybe a few spare rooms for whatever activity I come up with. I'm just a normal guy, don't want anything excessive.
“A private concert for 5 people” I can’t imagine how terribly awkward that would be, having a celebrity sing for 5 people in an abnormally large room where it definitely echoes the awkward sounds of silence
I’m so stoned right now watching this for probably over the 10th time in my life and I can’t stop laughing and rewinding him saying “nuh-uh-uh- daddy gotta shine those shoes😎”
I honest to god believe that 90 % of the people who own these big ass mansions dont live there like 360 days of the year. whenever they try to show rooms, it just looks like the wander into the rooms for the first time themselves xD
5:30 this is the hardest I've laughed today and it's specifically at the zoom-in of the vent while you describe the room. What category of humor is that

I love how he says "atm machine." Don't forget your pin number and make sure someone knows how to do CPR resuscitation of you are going to pay to use the pool. It's a great way to cool off before dealing with the lines at the department of dmv.
I could literally spend hours sitting down and planning out what I'd want in a house if I had endless money, and I think the most unusual thing I could think of would be a lego room where it was just a room dedicated to lego.

Rich people who are too lazy to walk downstairs to watch a film in their in-home movie theatre are the same ones who tell poor people they are lazy and not working hard enough.
my uncle is an architect and built his own home. the thing he was most proud of was how he raised all the doorways and ceilings to be slightly higher than regular standards bc he is v tall. the home theater in the basement or the stone walled shower that had different heads that all had like jet massage functions?? no, no. the slightly taller than average doorways and ceilings. that was the best feature of the entire home to him.
I say this as a tall person, having a guarantee you'll never hit your head walking around at home (barring unforeseen circumstances ie falling) is an absolute blessing
Well yeah doorways are a necessity, the other things are luxuries and you could easily buy a house with them in if you have enough money to build one, but slightly higher than average doors? That's an annoyance he'd have to live with his whole life everywhere he goes because doorways are not designed for his height, now he finally has a home he can actually fit in, obviously that's gonna be more important than optional luxuries
@@yuki97kira I was thinking the same, its like they have unlimited money in the sims game or something and they spend it on super specific rooms that just pop in their heads at a certain point and there was nothing to limit what they can build.
My theory: Money makes people stupid. People having too much money actually hurts the free market economy, because they no longer have to make logical buying decisions and don't have to consider pros and cons and weigh alternatives...
At the very least, consider that making those rooms cost a lot of money, and that money flowed into the pockets of the architects, construction workers, and utility engineers who can then use the money more effectively in their own transactions. On the other hand, then you have a useless room that took up the valuable time and materials and effort of some folks who could have been building apartments for homeless people instead. So there's that.
It's weird to think that it's better to just lie than tell the truth. Just tells you that all of these shows are staged. Do these people really think we give a shit if some celebrity likes limes or not.
@@likainenerkki7047 Of course it's staged. People don't just give you a tour around their super clean and tidy house the moment you enter it. On another note it's not really lieing or something like that. It's like when you have a presentation and suddenly there's a picture that your teammate put in last minute that you didn't know about so you panic and start freestyling. Nothing wrong with that
@@stopske9332 but why would you stage a bunch of limes? What's the point? I mean if you're going to stage something then make it better than fucking limes.
@@likainenerkki7047 Well from what she said in the video they put them there to make the place look better. But to be fair the first time I watched the video I didn't think "Oh she must really like limes". I was just very uncomfortable because the limes didn't match the green of the kitchen. So I don't know🤷🏼♀️ They did a bad job with the limes but I mean the rest of the house looked good. They probably do the little stuff like organizing books or setting stuff on tables or in this case filling up the fruit bowls.
I feel like having a separate kitchen for the chef was actually a good idea. I can see my chef gets annoyed when I wander in looking for a snack or something, and I get annoyed too when I'm cooking and someone interrupts😄
Hey! I like your stuff. I like your voice, your tone,your demeanor, and other things. I am hesitant to branch outside of the few people I watch but you charmed me out of my shell. Subbed.
i can't imagine how awful it would be to be in a huge house with like, one other person. big houses can be great but there's a point where it goes from sick to uncomfortable. i'm a big fan of comfy clutter and i CANNOT imagine how much stuff i'd need to buy to make the house feel like a home.
"This room is smaller cause we wanted a comfier, cozier feel" Huh. If only there was someway to have an entire place that's smaller and comfier and cozier. Nothing like that exists though.
It really is a shame. Someone should invent and build something like that. That way you can have a bunch of people in one building so not only is it cozier but you can have a sense of community.
Yeh… Like the above comment said, I’m looking forward to the day we can find a way to somehow… and ik this sounds weird,.. stack ppl. It’s weird but omg idk, it’s like cozy sounding :)
@@richardgimbel2230 Not sure about that. You see, poor people live like that. How do you call that...? Overcrowding? I'm sure I read in Quora that makes people hostile towards each other and then they go on the streets shouting nonsense about rights and destroying public property. All of that just to relieve their anger because they don't know how to be civilised. They really should be working more to achieve what they want. Instead they want everything for free. So not for me. I prefer big spaces so every member of the family can have their own space and when we feel like it we spare some time together at our basement movie theater. Nice, isn't it? Edit: It's sarcasm.
@@novaroseoooooo because you watched a few interviews that are almost always faked to make the celeb look better or because she's so shallow and her home is soo big that she had to lie to seem "humble" so you think she's quirky and likeable?
I’m sorry but Dakota seeing a plate of limes, in her own kitchen, that she doesn’t recognize and being so distrust by it that she feels the need to lie about a love of limes she doesn’t have, is hilarious to me.
6:55 Actually this is true for my household. My house has a cool 3d tv downstairs and surround sound and the most comfortable couch, but we barely go down because it’s a bit of a hassle going downstairs, and then cleaning it, and going up 2 floors when you’re tired
Ok but I do love Dita von teese's house haha. It's way too big obviously, but it's so tacky and kitsch, I love it 😍 I'd do it with entirely secondhand items and cheaper antiques though.
The dumbest thing about most of these rich people's houses is, if they're working as hard as they always claim they do, how do they even have time to enjoy 95% of what they've had built?
They have so much money that they can just stop working and enjoy their house. But they keep working because their net worth is like a highscore to them. I know Elon Musk works like 100 hours per week and sleeps in his factory, so he isn't even home most of the time.
As a private chef, it's actually really nice to have your work kitchen be separate so the billionaires' families don't come wandering in looking for a snack while you're working.
@Garbage Ilearsi what? i'm just a middle class person. saying all rich people have servants is like saying every middle class person should just work harder to earn more money. that's not how... groups of people work.
@Garbage Ilearsi you are an actual child. grow up and see that people are multi facetted and not this immature view you have. also imagine describing middle class people as "simple" lmaooo i can be whatever i want to be regardless of my class and so can anyone else.
@Garbage Ilearsi you are the equivalent of sjws believing in feminist when they just hate men for no reason. it's time to grow up this is really embarrassing.
I've never watched anything on your channel before this video; I'm only 5 minutes and 30 seconds into it, and your perfect commentary of the absurd features of the architectural digest videos are cracking me up. I'm interested in watching more of your channel. Great job with this one man :)
The fact that the lime thing was a panicked reaction to "why did you put all of these limes in my kitchen" is peak comedy. I'm a huge supporter of that.
Knowing "I really love limes... and I like to present them" was her just rolling with some unexpected and baffling set dressing is so much better than it being one of those "look at me. I'm so quirky!" moments. Never trust anyone who's honest all the time.
The lime lie absolutely floored me. I’m not sure I’ll recover from this mortal plot twist. Please god, show yourself if there’s any order in this world.
in dakota’s defense, her home is actually one of the least obnoxious home presented in architectural digest, like the few “rich pple stuff” that i can see is a private garden and a pool and thats about it. other home in architectural digest are huge and have obnoxious features that no one would need like drew said
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking too. Her house actually feels like a home and could even pass as something the average person can own (based on the style and lack of extravagant designer pieces).
-Actual private chef here Having a seperate kitchen actually is a huge blessing. Cooking for a dinner party with children runing in the kitchen and all the guests constantly asking for extra shit or quick snacks etc can really cut efficiency and can be annoying. Having your own space to work undistracted can really be a blessing
That one guy's theater sucks actually. the window and light walls are real bad for projectors (even with blinds) and the tile floor is bad for sound.... Walls and floors should be soft, dark materials. There's no shot of the screen but it's probably just set in the wall. This is a theater for presentation, not function. (this is what i get for having a professional home theater designer as a parent)
Yeah, isn’t that why the home theatres are in the basement? Because they have speakers on the walls and having a room with windows is bad for insulating the sounds?
@@ineedaname5928 i want them to introduce anti-stair man and ski elevator to house no.2 man and they can fight to the death for the cheering masses of rome
@@omaraabed Imagine actually taking a Private Jet to your school. You get in and by the time you're Airborne you're already right next to the school so the Pilot has to pull some evasive maneuvers and crashes into the school successfully killing himself, 345 students, and 23 teachers
The lime thing is actually pretty funny. They definitely put too many “decorative” limes in her kitchen for her to just ignore it. They really backed her into a corner.
right, like a professional set dresser had no moment of like "yeah maybe we need a second fruit in here" they just gave her two massive bowls of limes what else as she supposed to do lol
It's like super expensive shit is really ugly, but something actually cool is still too expensive and no actual wealthy person would buy it because they can afford better
1:40 as an architecture student, i actually adore this chair. It’s fluffier than u think and literally same as the other chairs. Just sit, lay down. It’s comfy and ı like the designnnnn
Private concerts are nice in theory, but I feel like they'd be really awkward in practice. I don't know, I'm someone who grew up poor haha. No frame of reference.
@@steviesteveo1 Exactly. But I guess it doesn't matter if you're someone who doesn't mind awkwardness. Maybe some of these people plan things out ahead of time?
I agree. I feel like a much cooler rich person thing to do is to hire a good band for a party at your overly expensive huge house. That way, you give your guests a good experience, and y’all all feed off the good energy of the crowd to decrease any awkwardness. Or, if you wanted to hire a more chill artist/band, you could have an outdoor small party, like a picnic or a garden party. Anyway, I think the key is more than 5 people and a more purposeful setting = Far less awkward = less stupid things for stupidly rich people to spend their money on
@@Anon-qp3kt I remember I went to a small scale concert recently, and I felt so embarrassed cuz the dudes onstage KNEW you were looking at them. The band was fantastic, but it was so weirdly embarrassing because of how close to the stage I was
i'm sorry but that man talking about his 1st floor theater like it's a revolutionary discovery was the funniest thing i've ever seen. rich people are out of this world
@violetwell at least they have enough to eat,have an internet connection, a phone, a toilet and maybe even a brick house (pakka ghar) instead of mud house . So please think before passing comments 😃
Seeing these houses and how these people live really makes me ill. All the people starving, homeless or just struggling to BARELY get by and they live like this.
