Ricky Martin will no longer be ‘Livin’ La Vida Loca’ in Florida after selling his Miami Beach mansion. The singer finally sold his last home in south Florida after five years of trying to get rid of the property.The 40-year-old star had his Miami Beach mansion on and off the market after paying $10m for the 10,000 sq ft home back in 2005. Property records show he sold the mansion for $10.6million, but the name of the buyer has not yet been released. Superstar couple Beyonce and Jay Z had been looking for a property in Miami Beach and were known to have visited the mansion whose neighbours include Miami Heat star Dwayne Wade and Bee Gee Barry Gibb. The home was on sale for $19.8million in 2008 but with the collapse of the housing market in Florida, Martin was forced to reduce his asking price. Then, two years later in 2010 it was on the market for $12.5million. But with Martin, who is appearing on Broadway in the musical Evita, looking for a quick sale he accepted an offer $600,000 above his own purchase price. Property taxes on the seven bedroom home are $106,000 a year.



















A new photograph obtained exclusively by ABC News showing the bloodied back of George Zimmerman’s head, which was apparently taken three minutes after he shot and killed Trayvon Martin, gives possible credence to his claim that Martin had bashed his head against the concrete as Zimmerman fought for his life. The revelation comes as his attorney and prosecutors prepare for Zimmerman’s bail hearing today, which could result in his being released from a Florida jail. Zimmerman, 28, is being held on charges of second-degree murder for the Feb. 26 shooting of Martin, 17, which could carry a life sentence if he is convicted. The exclusive image shows blood trickling down the back of Zimmerman’s head from two cuts. It also shows a possible contusion forming on the crown of his head. The original police report that night notes that the back of Zimmerman’s head was wet, and that he was bleeding from the nose and head. Zimmerman told police that night that he shot and killed the teenager in self-defense after Martin punched him and pounced on him. Zimmerman told police that Martin then bashed his head into the concrete sidewalk during the altercation that took place in the tidy middle-class development of the Retreat at Twin Lakes in Sanford, Fla. abc
