From lavish mansions to obsessions with vintage timepieces, their quirks aren’t just extravagant—they’re downright legendary. Let’s pull back the velvet curtains and let Sumita Chakraborty, Editor-in-chief, TheGlitz take a cheeky peek into the luxe lives of some of the world’s most glamorous stars, including a sportsman who’s as famous for his luxe tastes as his athletic prowess.

Luxe Queen of the Art Kingdom – Beyoncé

Luxe Quirk: Art Collection

When you’re Beyoncé, “hanging a picture” means something entirely different. Instead of thrift-store finds, Queen Bey’s walls are graced by masterpieces from Jean-Michel Basquiat and Richard Prince.

With an art collection worth more than the GDP of a small country, she’s not just a queen of music but of the art world too. And let’s be honest, when your home doubles as a museum, you know you’ve officially made it.

Gigi Hadid’s New York apartment is a shrine to sophistication, and the supermodel’s obsession with marble is the pièce de résistance. From countertops to coffee tables, Gigi’s home is dripping in the finest marble, turning her pad into a chic, stone-cold stunner. Forget feng shui; Gigi’s motto is “Marble, darling, or nothing at all!”

Priyanka Chopra Jonas – Jet-Set Queen

Luxe Quirk: Limited-Edition Sneakers

When he’s not winning Grand Slams or breaking tennis records, Roger Federer is busy perfecting his sneaker game. Federer’s sneaker collection is the stuff of legends, featuring rare and limited-edition kicks that could make any sneakerhead swoon. And let’s not forget his collaboration with Swiss brand On, which takes his love for sneakers to a whole new level. After all, why settle for gold trophies when you can have golden sneakers too?

Kim Kardashian – Minimalism on Steroids


Luxe Quirk: Stark, Monochromatic Home

Kim Kardashian’s home is so minimalist it makes a Zen garden look cluttered. Designed by Axel Vervoordt, Kim’s house is a symphony of monochromatic tones and clean lines, where even the door handles have been banished in favor of push-to-open doors. It’s the kind of place where you half expect to find meditation monks instead of Kardashians—but hey, when you’re Kim, luxury means nothing more and nothing less than perfect simplicity.

Mukesh Ambani – The Sky’s the Limit


Luxe Quirk: His 27-Story Personal Skyscraper

When you’re India’s richest man, a bungalow just won’t do. Mukesh Ambani’s Antilia is a 27-story skyscraper that makes even the Burj Khalifa look modest. Complete with a private cinema, multiple swimming pools, and a garage that can park 168 cars, Antilia isn’t just a home—it’s a vertical palace that screams, “The sky’s the limit!” Oh, and did we mention the snow room? Because what’s a skyscraper without indoor snowflakes?

Rihanna – The Jewellery Junkie


Luxe Quirk: A Love for Statement Jewellery

Rihanna doesn’t just wear jewelry; she owns it, flaunting pieces that are as bold as her personality. Her collection includes multi-million dollar diamond necklaces, custom-made creations, and everything in between. Whether she’s strutting down the red carpet or just grabbing a coffee, Rihanna’s bling game is always on point, making her the undisputed queen of statement jewelry.

Amitabh Bachchan – The Watch Whisperer


Luxe Quirk: His Vintage Watch Collection

Amitabh Bachchan isn’t just Bollywood’s greatest; he’s also a connoisseur of time itself. Big B’s love for vintage watches is legendary, with a collection that includes everything from Rolex to Patek Philippe. Each watch in his collection is a masterpiece, much like his career, and he wears them with the gravitas only a legend can muster. For Amitabh, these timepieces aren’t just about telling time—they’re about marking the moments that have shaped an era.
