Now, I'm even more curious lol..
I've searched out which celebs (publicly) live around Lake Geneva. I'm sure some houses are owned by private individuals or companies and then leased to celebs. After all, they (corporations) get their marching orders from the El-ite too...
While this first link isn't concentrating on Lake Geneva, the amount of Celebs living in Switzerland (full or part-time) is astounding! Bono, Clooney and a bunch of Lib actors.
