Celebrity Homes

A rough year for Soulja Boy is about to get rougher -- he's been served with an eviction notice, TMZ has learned.

Soulja's 2011 has included ... lying about buying a private jet, pissing off the military with one of his songs and getting arrested for allegedly carrying weed and a gun in a briefcase.

Now TMZ has learned the rapper, real name DeAndre Way, has not paid his November rent for his Atlanta pad -- a whopping $4,725 -- so he's been served with eviction papers. Soulja has until December 5 to pay up, or risk getting thrown out.

Winds reaching nearly 100 mph are wreaking havoc on Los Angeles -- and Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart felt it first hand when a giant tree toppled over outside their Beverly Hills home.

Dane and Gayheart were reportedly at home at the time, but didn't get hurt. The tree -- which the LA Fire Department says was 50 feet long and weighed 800 lbs. -- also took down power lines ... so the area was sealed off.

Trees have been knocked down all over town, from Pasadena to Sunset Blvd.

Amare Stoudemire is not feeling the ill effects of the NBA lockout -- TMZ has learned the New York Knicks star just plunked down $3.7 million on a new house!

According to property records, Amare picked up the new home in Southwest Ranches, FL last month. The 14,555 square foot home sits on a 2.35 acre lot, features six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and a nine-car garage.

And don't worry about Amare wasting his money ... he paid about a million less than the original asking price.

Chris Brown is waving the white flag, because we found out he moved out of the West Hollywood condo in which he was at war with his neighbors.

Brown's neighbors were complaining bitterly that he was parking in handicapped spots, playing music at ear-shattering levels at all hours of the night and even defacing property. Brown has denied committing any misdeeds.

Neighbors tell us ... they're "ecstatic" to see him go ... but Chris has not sold the unit, and we don't know his plans.

JaMarcus Russell has finally completed something -- the sale of his mansion ... and just in time to avoid losing it at auction! Not exactly a TD pass, but it's a start.

JaMarcus sold the Bay area home at the end of September, and the guy who bought it says he paid just over a million bucks. Back in 2007, when JaMarcus was a hot shot rookie -- with a $60 million contract -- he paid $2.4 million for the pad.

As TMZ first reported, the home was in foreclosure and JM nearly lost it at auction because he allegedly failed to pay $195,512.05 in mortgage payments.

We're told JaMarcus -- almost unquestionably the biggest NFL bust -- cleared out all his memorabilia before he moved out.

Nadya Suleman claims she's the victim of Octomomism -- prejudice against people who have given birth to eight kids at once -- because she says a real estate agency refused to handle the sale of her home because of who she was.

As TMZ first reported, Octo is unloading her troubled La Habra home (and even asking for more than it was appraised for). But Octo tells us when she first tried listing the home with a friend who worked at Atlantic & Pacific Real Estate, that agency rejected the listing ... on grounds they didn't want the media coverage.

In fact, her broker friend was told if she wanted to list the home, she'd have to resign and do it somewhere else. She did just that.

Octo tells TMZ, "I was appalled to say the least. It is a blatant form of prejudice and I was disgusted that they refused to take my house and list it."

Simon Cowell's enormous "X Factor" trailer isn't just pimped out -- it's a freakin' MASH unit ... fitted with better medical emergency equipment than your average doctor's office!

A source close to Simon tells TMZ the trailer now has something called a "Ready Cabinet" ... which transforms from an ordinary piece of furniture into a virtual hospital -- with a camera to examine wounds, a scope to check the inner ear, and a vitals monitor.

The rig is even ready for bad tickers -- it has an EKG glove that looks a lot like an oven mitt, but costs an incredible $4,000.

We're told Simon's in good health, and doesn't need this stuff -- but the company that makes the cabinet needed an over-sized testing ground -- and Cowell's huge trailer fit the bill. The prototype will eventually be used for disaster relief.

Frank McCourt didn't only lose the Dodgers -- new documents in his nasty divorce reveal he's also giving up three of the luxury properties he and Jamie McCourt owned together.

TMZ obtained the freshly filed docs in the divorce settlement which state Jamie gets the homes in Malibu, Holmby Hills, and Vail.

As for Frank ... the papers -- filed today in L.A. County Superior Court -- say he gets two homes back in Massachusetts

For Sale: The Oklahoma mansion where the Hanson bros grew up and recorded one of their albums.

The Deets: Custom recording studio, 6 bedrooms, 5 baths luxury pool and cabana house.

According to TulsaWorld.com, the Hanson family bought the place AFTER the band achieved "commercial success" ... but Zac, Isaac and Taylor basically grew up on the property.

The fam has since moved out of the home -- but whoever buys the pad will get to use the state of the art recording studio ... where Hanson recorded their 2010 album, "Shout It Out."

Academy Award winner Marcia Gay Harden is being evicted from the kick ass Santa Monica home where she's been staying for several months ... but the actress claims she's getting screwed ... and now she's filed legal papers to buy herself some time.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ, Marcia claims she signed a 1-year lease with the owners of the 4,200 square foot property back in August ... in which she agreed to pay $10k per month in rent ... plus a $20k security deposit.

But Marcia claims the owners of the property sold the place after she moved in ... and the NEW owners are trying to kick her to the curb ... with only 3 days notice.

Rachel Lee -- the mastermind behind the infamous Burglar Bunch gang -- has been sentenced to 4 years in prison ... for raiding Audrina Patridge's Hollywood Hills home back in 2009.

21-year-old Lee pleaded no contest to one count of first degree residential burglary last month ... after she was accused of entering Patridge's home through an unlocked door on the night of the Academy Awards.

Lee was accused of taking around $43k worth of items from the home -- including Audrina's passport, various pieces of jewelry, a laptop and designer jeans.

The 10,872 square foot Tudor-style home has 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms, a game room, and a 2,207 square foot fully-finished basement.

The trailer Will Smith used for "Men In Black III" was too big for New York City ... but it's become too SMALL for the "X Factor" judge Simon Cowell ... because contestants on the show have taken it over!

Sources close to the show tell TMZ ... Simon is using the EXACT same trailer on the set of "X Factor" that Will used back in May. We're told Simon considers it his home away from home and he spends more time there these days than at his home.

According to our sources, not only does Simon relax in it ... but he takes his meetings there and the "X Factor" crew films in it as well. The trailer is 1,200 square feet, but we're told Simon already has his eyes on getting a BIGGER one because so many of the all the crew and passersby who've taken to hanging out there.

Donald Trump just unloaded his awesome 11,000 square foot SoCal mansion for $7.15 million ... which is great, except he WANTED $12 mil when he put it on the market last year.

TMZ has learned ... Trump sold the Palos Verdes home to the owner of a major shipping company, who "appreciated the property as much as Trump does."

The house is UNREAL -- with 5 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, a 1,000 square-foot kitchen, a game room, a bar and a gorgeous infinity pool.

Matthew Perry seems determined to downsize his Los Angeles real estate portfolio -- the actor just listed his Modern-style hilltop estate for $5.695 million.

In case you're keeping track -- this is the third crib Matt's tried to unload in the last two months -- he listed a condo in the posh Sierra Towers in August, and his Malibu beach pad just a few weeks ago.

The new listing comes in at a spacious 4,100 square feet -- and has 3 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a media room ... and walls of windows to show off the smoggy view of downtown L.A.
