TMZ Live: Ryan Seacrest $49 Mil Mansion ... Your Move, Simon Cowell

TMZ Live Seacrest's $49 Mil Mansion Your Move ... Cowell

Ryan Seacrest just dropped nearly $49 MILLION to buy Ellen Degeneres' mega-mansion. So why spend that much dough? It's all Simon Cowell's fault ... maybe. You gotta hear this theory.

Plus, Jay-Z announces he supports gay marriage ... and trumps President Obama at the same time. Also, a super "handsome" celeb lawsuit, and Britney Spears' nerve-racked intro to "The X Factor" -- bad omen?
