...After the release of Bee Movie, Seinfeld plans to return to being a stand-up comic and quasi-stay-at-home dad. Home for Seinfeld (who made a reported $225 million for Seinfeld's syndication alone and appears almost annually on Forbes' list of richest celebrities) is an apartment overlooking Central Park. It's also an estate in the Hamptons, on Long Island, that he purchased for $32 million from Billy Joel in 2000 and a new spread in Telluride, Colo., not far from Tom Cruise's place. He keeps his collection of Porsches (he won't say how many...
...surprising thing about Seinfeld: He actually seems rather nurturing, especially at mealtime. He'll warn you away from a tuna melt at one of his favorite restaurants because it has too much garlic, and he'll make sure you don't miss the bread pudding at the DreamWorks commissary.

...finale of Seinfeld, the cast of self-involved characters ended up in jail for nine seasons' worth of selfishness and hilariously brutal indifference to the rest of the world's feelings.

One night he invited a woman he had met at the gym, Jessica Sklar, to his show. In his current act, Seinfeld jokes, "I was dating for 25 years. Do you know how exhausting that was? Do you know how much acting fascinated I did?" But Jessica, whom he calls a "neighborhood girl," actually did fascinate him. Like Seinfeld, she had grown up on Long Island, and of all the nice Jewish girls available to him, he says...
...left a relationship where I was sort of supposed to be someone I wasn't. That relationship was never going to work, and I met someone who was heaven and earth to me." On Dec. 25, 1999, they were married in a small ceremony. Two months later, says Seinfeld, he was awakened by a tap, tap on his pillow. "She had one of those [home pregnancy test] sticks that you buy at the drugstore. I was sleeping, and she started tapping the stick on the pillow. So I opened my eyes. It was great." After the birth of daughter Sascha...
