Looks like hell officially froze over ... Nicolas Cage, his baby mama and their alleged wife-beating son all hung out together for FUN on Monday night ... which NEVER happens.

Weston Cage had a gig with his metal band at Whiskey a-Go-Go in Hollywood ... when surprisingly his mom -- Christina Fulton -- and famous dad showed up to cheer him on ... even though the family is as functional as the Greek economy.

But this time was different ... the happy fam snapped a pic (above) ... and we're told no one got hurt.

So, we recapped some of their past hobnobs ... just to see how far they've come.

-- Nic Cage and baby-mama Fulton hit up a courthouse to settle a nasty $13-mil lawsuit
-- Nic tells TMZ "I hope Ms. Fulton will come to her senses one day and get some help."
-- Nic sends an employee to hunt down Weston ... who then beats the crap out of him. 
-- Weston is taken for a "mental evaluation," but his mom is banned from the hospital.
-- Fulton tries to get conservatorship of Weston ... against his wishes.
-- Weston tells TMZ "I want no contact with Christina Fulton and will never undergo the torment she put me through ever again."

Most. Awkward. Photo. Ever.

We are calling on you to find the hidden differences in these crazy pics. Will you pick then up?

**HINT -- There are THREE differences in the above photographs!**

The Hidden Hills home that was the centerpiece of "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" for 5 seasons has been sold -- and the TV producer who bought it has exorcised all Kardashian demons by tearing the whole thing down ... except for one precious piece.

The new owner had the homestead disassembled piece by Armenian piece ... the toilets, cabinets, even the roof were donated to Habitat for Humanity.  The upshot -- Kardashian remnants will adorn homes throughout the world.



We're told the owner plans on building a modern, industrial-type home in its place.  

As for the one piece the owner kept ... the stripper pole, which will become a coat rack.

Total downgrade. 

These stars have flipped the script and put themselves on the other side of the lens -- check out how an everyday occurrence for these shutterbugs turned into an awesome photo op!

The night before Chyna collapsed at a XXX convention in Miami ... she was kicked out of a hotel party for causing a scene and passing out in the pool, TMZ has learned.

It all went down Thursday night at the Catalina Hotel in Miami (the same hotel where the new CW show "The Catalina" takes place).

The former wrestling star strutted her stuff at the XXX convention kick-off party. According to our sources, Chyna pissed off multiple party-goers with her crazy antics ... most notably when she  jumped in the pool naked with a friend.

We're told at one point ... she actually passed out in the water. Our sources says Chyna was thrown out of the party after the pool fiasco and taken back to her room to sleep it off.

As TMZ previously reported, Chyna passed out yesterday in front on the main stage at the porn convention.

As the NBA season is coming to an end, one thing isn't going anywhere -- can you guess which NBA ballers are the proud owners of these awesome (and seriously permanent) tattoos?!

Believe it or no t... this silly scrambled photo belongs to a genuine famous face. Can you guess who's being this serious mix-up?!

After selling their old mega-compound to Ryan Seacrest for $49 million, Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi are really downsizing ... into a cozy $18 million mid-century modern Beverly Hills estate.

In their new "modest" digs, Ellen & Portia will have to find a way to make due with 8,500 square feet featuring 4 bedrooms, 6 baths, a commercial kitchen, several patios and only one rectilinear swimming pool, according to The Real Estalker.

While their new crib is still ridiculously awesome -- the place has a tree in the middle of the living room --  the ladies will be packed in like A-list sardines compared to the 9,200 square foot mansion, 3 guest houses and 2.7 acres they just sold to the "American Idol" host.

Times are tough for everyone in this economy ... except Ryan Seacrest.

It's official ... Ryan Seacrest is the owner of Ellen DeGeneres' epic, Beverly Hills estate. 

We've learned title was officially transferred to Ryan on Wednesday.  

We have now learned exactly what Ryan paid for the property. Ellen listed it at $49 million, and although one of our sources told us Ryan paid close to the asking price, we have now confirmed Ryan paid just under $39 mil. 

We broke the story Ryan snagged the estate, which covers a city block and is just shy of 3 acres.  In addition to the 9,200 square foot main house, there are 3 other houses on the property.  The gym is the size of a large health club.

As for Ellen, she bought the main house from "Will and Grace" producer Max Mutchnick for $29 mil and then purchased the surrounding properties.  Bottom line ... we're told Ellen lost money on the deal, but given the real estate slump, she still did ok.

Forbes says Ryan raked in $59 mil last year, so he can afford it.

George Clooney and Steve-O's ex-girlfriend Elisabetta Canalis got on all fours while tanning her slammin' single body in a purple bikini in Cannes on Tuesday.

From the glorious looks of it, she won't be sans boyfriend for much longer.

Ryan Seacrest has snagged Ellen DeGeneres' amazing Beverly Hills estate, which was listed for a cool $49 million, and he paid close to the asking price ... TMZ has learned.

Seacrest, who is reportedly worth $125 million and rakes in $45 million a year (these reports are sometimes off -- he probably makes more) ... will be the proud owner of the 9,200 square foot main house, 3 guest houses, and a couple of cement ponds. The estate sits on 2.87 acres -- for Bev Hills, that's huge. It basically covers an entire block.

Our sources say Ryan is paying within a couple of million dollars of the asking price. The deal is in escrow and it will close this week.

One realtor -- Kurt Rappaport -- repped both Ryan and Ellen in the deal ... nice commission.

The house was formerly owned by Max Mutchnick, co-creator of "Will and Grace." Ellen paid $29 mil, but then purchased the adjacent properties.

It pays to have 20 jobs.
