Living like your favorite celebrities just got a little easier.
Business Insider took a look at homes that an assortment of famous people once lived in, rented, or owned. The list includes a magician, a musician, and an athlete, among others, and features homes that range from New York City apartments to entire Los Angeles estates.
Some of the homes are perfect for weekend getaways — if, of course, you can front the celebrity-level costs. Others are currently on the market as month-over-month rentals, like esteemed architect Zaha Hadid's Miami pad.
Here are six celebrity homes you can rent right now.
