Leona's $12 Million Dog

Real estate magnate Leona Helmsley has willed a $12 million trust fund to her dog Trouble, according to CBS News.

Helmsley cut two grandchildren out of her will entirely, cut two others in for $5 million each -- if they visit their father's grave once per calendar year -- and left $100,000 to her chauffeur.

The will also calls for her mausoleum to be steam-cleaned once a year.

The New York Post, delighting in one last Helmsley report, says "The Queen of Mean left a kennel full of cash for the plenty-pampered female pooch."
