Living Near the Stars - Scott Stapp

Welcome back to our Living Near the Stars series right here in Fort Lauderdale. We have looked at some really great people from all walks of life. Today we are going to look at Scott Stapp, lead singer for Creed. Born Anthony Scott Flippin in 1973, Scott took his step father's name and became Scott Stapp, just in case you were wondering how he got his name. He was the lead singer for the smash hit band, Creed for years. The band disbanded in 2004. He has put forth a great effort for a solo career but the jury is still out.

Scott Stapp is best known as the lead singer of Creed. The band began in 1995 as "Naked Toddler" but made their fame and fortune under the name Creed. They are most famous for their album "Human Clay", which has been certified diamond by the RIAA. Their number one hit "With Arms Open Wide" made many a fan fall in love with their kids all over again. Scott wrote that song when he found out he was going to be a father to Jagger Stapp.

In 2006, Scott married former Miss New York USA 2004, Jaclyn Nesheiwat, and they moved to our little Boca Raton shortly after. Their home was purchased for a meager $5 million. That's just chump change for you and me, I am sure. Their home touts 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. I can't imagine cleaning 7 bathrooms! He must surely enjoy exercising on his tennis courts or swimming in his pool or spa. With his career in music, Scott added a recording studio. No sense in having to go into work if he doesn't need to. Wouldn't we all like to be able to work from home?!

I would be amiss if I didn't mention that he is also banned form his Boca Raton home due to a domestic dispute. He is only allowed in his recording studio. I hate to see any marriage go south so i hope that they can work things out. I wonder why famous people have such a hard time making marriage work?

Talk to you later,

Christine
