Update:
According to Jaunted tipsters and commenters, Tommy Lee isn't buying in. He didn't get an invite.
The World, whose sales are by invitation only, is now 92 per cent reclaimed, according to Nakheel (via Emirates Today).
Nothing says "I love you and I want you back" like a man-made island, so Tommy Lee bought Pamela Anderson one off the coast of Dubai. Need further proof that Dubai is desperately trying to become the world's Las Vegas? While there are still plenty of cultural issues to sort out before Dubai is christened Sin City Middle East, having America's first couple of sex tapes purchase an island in one of the biggest vacation developments ever constructed isn't a bad start.
The World, where Tommy Lee reportedly purchased the man made island of Greece, consists of 300 man-made islands positioned to form the shape of the world map, lying 4km off the coast of Dubai. Measuring approximately 9 km in width by 7 km in length, the development covers over 9,340,000 million square feet and is visible to the naked eye from space--just like Vegas! The World will include a collection of homes, apartments, resorts, restaurants and retail amidst beaches, and boating. Heh, Tommy and Pam on a boat, isn't that how all this began?
