Celebrity Homes

Octomom got a nice little house-warming gift this weekend -- when her brand new pad was PELTED WITH 3 DOZEN EGGS ... by some mystery vandals.

Sources close to Octo tell TMZ ... the mom of 14 wasn't home when the prank went down late Friday night -- she was in NYC attending a drag queen show at XL nightclub -- but her children were.

We're told Octo discovered the mess outside her Palmdale house when she came back Saturday morning -- with eggs covering her van, garage door and front drive-way.

Not only that ... we're told the eggs sat for so long, they attracted a ferocious army of ants, which fed off the rotting goo.

As for the damage ... we're told it cost Octo $100 to clean the eggs, and another $100 to kill the ant infestation.

Tyga INSISTS ... he's not some broke-ass squatter who's refusing to pay rent on a Malibu crib -- in fact, he claims he just bought a $6.5-million mansion 20 miles away.

TMZ broke the story ... a Malibu landlord named Gholamreza Rezai sued Tyga, claiming the rapper is screwing him on the $16,000-per-month rent ... but continues to live in the home.

But a rep for Tyga tells TMZ the lawsuit is 100% B.S ... insisting he gave the landlord the necessary 30 days notice before he left ... and everything should be square.

Tyga also claims he's definitely NOT living in the home ... because he's shacked up at a brand new 9,279-square-foot mansion he purchased in Calabasas.

The rep says the landlord is being unreasonable -- and wants to keep Tyga locked in the lease because he can't find anyone to cover the hefty rent in such a crappy economy.

Life's a bitch ... Nas sang it and now he's living it ... because besides being knee deep in tax debt, TMZ has learned the rapper just lost his Georgia crib to foreclosure.

According to official records, Nas purchased the 2-bedroom, 3-bath pad back in 2004 for $585,000 ... but according to SunTrust bank (which issued him the loan) ... Nas couldn't foot the bill and defaulted on the payments, still owing $507,000.

SunTrust recently foreclosed on the property and then sold it to the highest bidder at public auction last month for $348,500 ... WAY LESS than the rapper paid eight years ago.

It's a steal for the new owner -- the house is over 3,500 square feet with a walk-in pool and hot tub ... granite counter-tops ... custom theater ... gym and game room.

Music Mogul Birdman spent $14.5 mil in cash money for a Miami mansion the size of a Four Seasons.

The rapper -- who co-founded Cash Money Records -- bought the 19,000-sqaure-foot pad last month -- which sits on the ultra exclusive Palm Island.

The 9-bedroom, 17-bath palace is amazing -- 25-foot-ceilings ... a below ground pool ... an outdoor pool with cabana ... a theater, gym, spa area ... in-house massage room ... 100 feet of waterfront AND a private dock.

Ya know, for your awesome boat.

FUN HOUSE HISTORY: The mansion belonged to music producer Scott Storch until it was taken away from him in foreclosure 2 years ago. It was snatched up by the inventor of Rockstar energy drinks for $6.75 mil ... and then flipped to Birdman for a huge profit.

"Rack City" rapper Tyga owes WAY more than ten, ten, ten, twenties, and them fifties on his rented Malibu mansion -- so says Tyga's landlord ... and now, the guy's suing to get his money.

A man named Gholamreza Rezai filed the lawsuit against Tyga and his music company, claiming Tyga signed a one-year lease in June, agreeing to pay $16,000 per month to live in the luxurious pad ... but he stopped paying rent last month.

Rezai claims Tyga expressed a desire to move out by September 30th -- informing Rezai that fans kept showing up at his front door ... and Tyga was worried the home didn't offer enough security.

According to the suit, Rezai refused to terminate the lease agreement and demanded September's rent -- but Tyga still wouldn't ante up.

What's worse, Rezai claims Tyga still hadn't vacated the premises by September 30th ... and the rapper allegedly continues to live there. We called Tyga for his side of the story, but were unable to reach him.

A man was arrested at the home of Frances Bean Cobain today after a housesitter discovered him inside without permission ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Cobain's housesitter came across the man when she returned home today. We're told the man -- a white male in his 20s -- claimed he knew Cobain and she had given him permission to stay there.

Our sources say the housesitter didn't buy his story, so she called police. When cops arrived, we're told he gave the same story.

Law enforcement sources tell us when cops reached out to Cobain, her people told them she had no clue who the man was.

Former Atlanta Hawks star Joe Johnson wasn't too attached to his GINORMOUS Georgia mansion -- TMZ has learned he listed the place for $4.7 mil after he was traded to the Brooklyn Nets.

Johnson purchased the massive 13,822 square-foot-pad back in 2005 for $3.8 mil -- the same year he signed with the Hawks. Fast forward to 2012 ... Johnson is traded to Brooklyn under a $119-million contract and it's sayonara GA.

The 7-bedroom, 9-bath crib is pretty AMAZING too ... 10-foot-high ceilings ...sleek modern decor ... movie theater ... massive game room ... infinity edge pool and spa. Plus, it sits on almost 2 acres of land.

"X Factor" producers tried to pull the wool over your eyes last night -- because TMZ has learned Simon Cowell and Britney Spears' mansions on the show weren't their homes at all ... in fact, one actually belongs to MLB star Alex Rodriguez.

In case you missed last night's episode, groups of contestants were invited to perform at four different homes around the country -- each allegedly belonging to one of the show's four judges.

But it was ALL A LIE -- "Simon's" Miami pad actually belongs to A-Rod. The baseball star listed the home in August for $38,000,000, but it's still on the market. Simon's real house is in Beverly Hills.

It's unclear who really owns the Malibu home Britney appeared in last night, but one thing's for certain -- Britney does NOT own that Malibu home. Her real home is in Calabasas, many miles away.

As for the other two homes -- we can't say for SURE if they're bogus, but we're betting none of the judges wanted their real homes on public display.

While Alex Rodriguez keeps striking out, Derek Jeter strikes gold ... because he just unloaded his NYC condo for a cool $15.5 mil.

Jeter just sold his penthouse in the Trump World Tower to Brazilian magnate Silvio Luiz Reichert, says the NY Daily News. The four-bedroom apartment has 16-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, a living room, billiards room, piano lounge, wet bar, hardwood floors and an actual word-burning fireplace.

D.J. originally asked for $20 mil, but dropped the price and sealed the deal last month. Fear not ... there are no cardboard boxes in Derek's future, because he still owns a giant mansion in Tampa.

As for A-Rod, he's still trying to dump his $38 million Miami mansion. So far, no takers. Maybe he should call Raul Ibanez.

Justin Bieber is the latest victim of a 911 "Swatting" prank ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.

A 911 call came in last night ... the caller claiming someone was waving a gun right next to Justin's L.A. home.

Police sent the cavalry ... cars, helicopters, the works. Sources tell us ... Justin's security let the cops in, and they did a sweep of the house but found nothing. We're also told cops did a similar sweep of 2 other homes on the block.

The block is a super-exclusive area peppered with celebs, including Travis Barker, Romeo, Kourtney Kardashian, and a number of athletes.

Haylie Duff -- best known as Hilary Duff's older sis -- is trying to unload her Toluca Lake crib for $1.8 million ... just months after her sister sold a home in the same area.

Haylie bought the 4,064 square-foot-pad 4 years ago -- right around the time she was filming a couple of made-for-TV movies -- for a cool $1.75 million.

After several years in a less-than-stellar real estate market -- the Duffster listed it this week for a mere $50k more than she paid. Which leaves her a very tiny profit margin.

The 5-bedroom, 6-bath house is pretty cool ... boasting New England style decor ... hardwood floors ...a marble kitchen ... cathedral ceiling ... pool and spa. Not to mention, it sits inside a gated community.

Back in August, Hilary sold her 5,260 square foot Toluca Lake home for $6.25 million.

Kim Kardashian is ready to MOVE IN with Kanye West ... and the two are now officially on the hunt for a home together in Miami ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected to the couple tell us ... K&K have been talking about getting their own place for a couple of months ... and believe Miami is the perfect location because they both love the city.

Plus, Kim will be in town for the next couple of months to shoot a reality show with Kourtney.

We're told the Ks checked out 4 homes yesterday -- all waterfront properties -- and the mansions all ranged between $7 and $10 MILLION.

Hayden Christensen's film producer brother Tove Christensen nearly came face-to-face with a burglar inside his L.A. home this week -- but law enforcement sources tell TMZ, the intruder ran off before anyone was hurt.

We're told police rushed to Tove's home early Tuesday AM after receiving a 911 call that a burglary was in progress.

Tove -- who produced Hayden's movie "Shattered Glass" -- was home. When police arrived, the burglar had already escaped. It appears Tove wisely did not confront the dude.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, the burglar got into Tove's home by busting a window with a rock. We're told the burglar attempted to steal a guitar ... but dropped it in the bushes on his way out.

Cops are looking for a suspect.

Giovanni Ribisi KNOWS one house in L.A. just ain't enough -- the actor dropped $3 million on a sweet new pad in the Hollywood Hills ... just 5 miles down the road from his OTHER sweet, new pad.

Ribisi's recent purchase is 3,756 square-feet of awesomeness -- it boasts 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, a library, lagoon style pool, cascading waterfall ... AND sits right next door to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie (awesome?).

All in all, the crib set Ribisi back a cool $2.95 million.

It's house numero dos for the "Ted" actor ... 3 months ago he dropped $1.4 million on a sick new 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath house in Atwater Village complete with an artist's studio -- only a few miles away.

2:06 PT PM -- A police spokesperson just addressed the media about the situation, claiming law enforcement was NOT notified via a 911 call ... but via a teletext message, as if coming from a deaf person.

The spokesperson said the message appears to be a hoax. According to the officer, it's unclear where the teletext originated from.

2:43 PM PT -- Ashton just tweeted ... he's "safe and sound" back on the set of "Two and a Half Men."

The alleged home invasion robbery at Ashton Kutcher's house today was a prank -- a case of "swatting" -- and cops are now on the hunt for the culprit ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... someone called 911 and reported they were holed up in the bathroom and that there were shots fired inside the house and people were either injured or dead.

There were indeed 3 people inside the house -- people working on Ashton's crib, but there was no one in the bathroom and no injured people or dead bodies.

Our law enforcement sources say cops have closed the "home invasion" investigation and now know it's a case of swatting -- where a caller tricks 911 and reports a phony crime of a serious nature, which happened recently with Miley Cyrus.

Our sources say cops believe the culprit or culprits were scoping out the home because they knew 3 people were inside. None of the 3 workers are suspects.

Ashton was not home at the time but his Lexus just pulled up at the house.

Police rushed to Ashton Kutcher's L.A. home today, after someone claimed there was a home invasion robbery with shots fired.

The alleged victim claimed she locked herself in the bathroom and several Russian men with weapons were in the house, robbing it.

The LAPD swarmed the area from land and by air and called out the 3 men who were on the property. The men have been detained and are being questioned, but one law enforcement source tells TMZ ... they may be workers on the property so the whole thing could be a misunderstanding.

Cops also have not found the girl who was supposedly locked in the bathroom so cops are not sure if there ever was a "victim" in the house. Translation, it could be a "swatting" prank.
