Fashion mogul Tommy Hilfiger has a little extra traveling money after renting his East Hampton estate to Mariah Carey for $350,000 - for just Aug. 1 through Labor Day.
Sources say Hilfiger, who's spending the month in the Caribbean, got his full asking price from the well-to-do pop diva for the high-season rental.
The oceanfront Contemporary on exclusive Further Lane includes five bedrooms, 5½ baths, a media room, an outdoor pavilion with a fireplace and an infinity-edge pool, and more than 150 feet of beachfront.
Carey could probably use some rest. She wrapped her next movie, "Tennessee," last month and recently has been recording her next album.
* In other Hilfiger news, the fashion mogul is combining two apartments at the Plaza on a high floor for approximately $27 million.
When we first reported that he was buying in the landmark building last fall, he had only gone to contract for one large apartment.
Now his residence has been bumped up to 5,500 square feet and will include four bedrooms, a formal dining room, a large living room, staff rooms and a wraparound view of Central Park and Fifth Avenue. His closing is expected by the end of the year.
Hilfiger will join such notable residents as New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, developer Harry Macklowe, beleaguered Bear Stearns boss James Cayne, Italian auto-racing magnate Flavio Briatore and surgically altered siren Jocelyn Wildenstein.
Baby-mama drama
Bridget Moynahan is gaining a child but losing a Manhattan apartment. The actress and mother-to-be, who's very pregnant with ex-boyfriend/Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's baby, has just sold her one-bedroom West Chelsea apartment for $820,000, according to city records.
She listed the prewar co-op at the sprawling London Terrace complex on West 23rd Street soon after learning that her New York-based TV series, "Six Degrees," was canceled in April. But maybe she just didn't want to run into Brady and his current supermodel squeeze Gisele Bundchen, who recently moved into aWest Village townhouse.
Brady, meanwhile, as we reported in June, pulled his three-bedroom, 3 1/2-bath Time Warner Center condo unit with an asking price of $16.5 million off the market and is now getting a $60,000-per-month rent from a financier for six months.
