A $1 million Powerball ticket was sold in Kentwood, Michigan, matching all five white balls but not the Powerball. The jackpot has grown to an estimated $975 million, the fifth-largest ever, with no winners in the latest drawing. The last jackpot winner was in Michigan on Jan. 1.
Britney Spears's childhood home in Kentwood, Louisiana, has been listed for $1.2 million, more than quadruple its 2021 selling price. The 2,229 square-foot ranch-style home, built in 1980, features three bedrooms and three bathrooms but has not been recently renovated. The real estate agent acknowledges that the home's actual value is likely around $300,000, making it unlikely for a buyer to secure a loan for the full listing price. The property includes some original furniture and memorabilia from Britney Spears's time there. The agent hopes the home will be turned into a museum, venue, or Airbnb to attract fans and tourists. Offers are being entertained, and negotiations are possible.
