Kim Kardashian West Bird's-eye View of SoCal Wildfire ... Flees in Mass Evacuations
Kim Kardashian West and her family are fleeing California's latest devastating wildfires -- but she got an overhead view of the massive inferno before she left.
Kim's flight back to L.A. Thursday night went right over the Woolsey fire which is raging out of control in Ventura and L.A. Counties -- it's already scorched 8,000 acres. She posted some incredible video of the blaze as she was landing, and said she had to get out of harm's way almost immediately after getting home.
The fire's forced the evacuation of more than 75,000 homes.
I am with Rob, Dream and True and I am up keeping watch! Saying prayers and thanking all of the brave firefighters who risk their lives for us ❤️❤️ https://t.co/eVlJgWSqVd
@khloekardashian
With the flames already taking out at least 30 houses ... residents, including the Kardashians, are fleeing Calabasas and surrounding towns. Khloe, Kourtney and their little ones have also bolted.
Kim, who was returning from a day trip to San Quentin State Prison, continued documenting the flames as she got outta Dodge, and showed the firefighters tons of love.

Danielle Staub My Ex Secretly Listed Our House!! He Left Me Out in the Cold
Imagine finding out your estranged spouse put your house up for sale without telling you, and if not for a friend's phone call ... you'd never know it -- well that's exactly what happened to Danielle Staub.
Sources tell TMZ ... the 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' star found out about the listing first thing Thursday morning when a friend called her. We're told Marty Caffrey, Danielle's estranged husband, is listing their NJ mansion for over $2 million.
We're told Danielle started crying when she got the news. That's totally understandable because Danielle currently lives there with her youngest daughter! We're told she called Marty to hear it from the horse's mouth, and then called her lawyer to see if she can block the sale.
Danielle and Marty are going through a messy divorce, but they've been sharing the mansion since the split. Yes, it's 7,500 square feet, but it's still uncomfortable. We're told Danielle feels like she has to close her doors.
The brick colonial was built in 1950 and boasts 6 bedrooms, 8 bathrooms and 10-foot ceilings. Great buy for someone, but meanwhile ... Danielle's screwed. Her rep tells us, “This is yet another example of the blatant disrespect and emotional abuse she has endured in this relationship.”
Worth noting, Marty and Danielle only got married back in May. Now suddenly, the 'Real Housewife' is gonna be an ex-wife ... with NO house.
Ouch.

Lance Bass Still Tied to 'Brady Bunch' Remodel

EXCLUSIVE
- 1 shares
Lance Bass was noticeably absent from the 'Brady Bunch' reunion at the Brady crib HGTV plans to remodel, but he's still going to be involved in the show ... TMZ has learned.
Sources close to the production tell us this week's Brady kids get-together -- which featured all of Mike and Carol's TV spawn -- was simply a photo shoot that will be used for promos when the show is officially announced.
We're told Lance's team spoke to HGTV execs just last week and was assured he's not off the project -- the network plans to tap him in on the project sometime in 2019. It's still unclear if he'll be hosting, producing ... or both.
In addition to the Brady gig, we're told HGTV's offered him a second project. So, it's clear things are still cool between Lance and network execs.
As for the remodel itself ... our sources say the building team might've hit a minor setback after stumbling across a ton of asbestos in the house, which could delay the demolition process a bit.

'Brady Bunch' House OG Cast Stages Family Reunion ... Shooting with HGTV
It's throwback Thursday at the famous 'Brady Bunch' house, where the main cast from the 1970s sitcom is getting back together to shoot for HGTV's new show about the groovy makeover going down at their old crib.
As you can see in our pics ... Marcia, Greg, Peter and Bobby Brady -- otherwise known as Maureen McCormick, Barry Williams, Christopher Knight and Mike Lookinland -- staged a mini-reunion at the site of the Studio City, CA home used for exteriors on the show.
Greg and Marcia, Marcia, Marcia looked especially close. Oh, and don't worry ... Eve Plumb and Susan Olsen (Jan and Cindy) were also there, but stayed out of view of our camera.
We broke the story ... after scooping up the property in a $3-plus million deal, HGTV plans to blow out the home's interior and backyard to make a replica of the sitcom set. The project will expand the home from 2,400 sq ft to more than 6,000 sq ft.
Obviously, this will also require cheesing up the place, making it 1973 authentic with cottage cheese ceilings and all to duplicate the show.
As we reported, neighbors were PISSED OFF by expansion plans -- but, if you ask us, seeing the Bradys on the block is pretty cool. We suggest the whole Bunch go door-to-door to ease tensions.

'Flipping Vegas' Stars Cops Shut Down Horseback H'ween
The stars of "Flipping Vegas" got someone flippin' pissed at their Halloween stunt -- riding horses on the beach -- and they ended having a run-in with Johnny Law.
Scott and Amie Yancey hit Malibu Tuesday evening on horseback while in costume -- Scott was the Headless Horseman, and Amie looked like Daenerys from "Game of Thrones." As you can see in the video ... onlookers at the Sunset Restaurant were in awe, but eventually ... the party on hooves was stopped in its tracks.
Scott's rep tells us cops arrived shortly after the couple trotted their steads down Westward Beach Road and told them they couldn't ride on the street.
Their costumes must have impressed the officers, because they were merely escorted to the trailers where the horses were stowed. Their show's been off the air since 2014, but seems like they still have fans in law enforcement -- Amie and Scott were allowed to go on their way ... on foot.
Nice Halloween treat for 'em.

Cannabis Rooms Pot Paradise ... Marijuana Mansions Coming To L.A.

EXCLUSIVE

One high-end real estate developer is going green ... building weed-friendly mansions for athletes, CEOs and celebs looking to harvest their own herb at home and take advantage of the plant's healing powers without ever having to get off the couch!
Ramtin Ray Nosrati of Huntington Estate Properties is building 5 marijuana mansions in Bel-Air and Westside, and each residence contains a cannabis conservatory ... it's basically a stoner's spin on a cigar room, specifically designed for blazing up and growing ganja.
The individual homes -- call them the houses that hemp built -- are being advertised to active and retired athletes who are interested in at-home, anti-inflammatory medicine for daily life ... because THC and CBD can do wonders for all the physical and mental stress that comes with being one of the world's elite ballers.
Check out the gallery ... the special cannabis room inside each home comes with its own dedicated harvester, who will work magic for 2 years cultivating, watering, fertilizing and harvesting crops and/or vegetables using organic hydroponics. In Los Angeles, you can grow up to 6 plants in your home. Sounds dank!
The first 2 pothead paradises are scheduled for completion next summer, but it's gonna take some serious green to live like Bob Marley ... the mansions are gonna be listed between $30-40 million.

Demi Lovato Home is a Tough Sell ...
Demi Lovato wants to unload the home where she almost died, but turns out there are problems selling it and they have nothing to do with her overdose.
Real estate sources tell TMZ, the house has some issues. Demi turned the garage into a combo of a space for security, a glam room and a wardrobe room. There is no covered place to park a car.
On top of that, someone installed a security gate that seems to encroach on public property ... so much so that there's a city streetlight on her side of the gate.
Both issues are obviously correctable, but at a cost.
There was also a major landslide next door and, although it's stabilized, it's still dicey until the City of L.A. corrects the problem.
Demi listed the house 56 days ago for $9,495,000 and then reduced it to $8,995,000.
She paid $8.3 million back in 2016 and we're told sunk she around $800,000 into the home for improvements.
The good news ... she'll unload it for the right price and move on.
We're told Demi is successfully continuing her rehab ... more than 90 days after her OD.

Chrissy Metz Burglarized ... During 'Tonight Show' Trip
The Pearson household has been broken yet again -- only this time it happened in real life at Chrissy Metz's place after she was burglarized while out of town ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell us someone broke into the "This Is Us" star's L.A.-area home Monday night around 8 PM. We're told her assistant came to the house because an alarm had gone off, and realized a person had just been inside.
BTW ... Chrissy was in NYC Monday for an appearance on the 'Tonight Show' with Jimmy Fallon. So, she wasn't home at the time of the break-in.
Our sources say someone smashed through Chrissy's back bedroom window and took a couple of purses -- unclear what the total loss is in dollars. We're told Chrissy's heading back to L.A. Tuesday to complete a report.
It's unknown if Chrissy was specifically targeted or if this was random. As we reported ... police recently nabbed several alleged burglars who hit celeb homes, and even had a list of future celeb homes they planned to take down.

Mac Miller House Where He Died Hits Renter's Market at $10k Mo.
It's time to turn the page on the house where Mac Miller died ... it's now up for rent.
We're told the 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom San Fernando Valley house hit the market earlier this week and can be yours for $9,595 a month.
The 3,156 sq. foot house is modest but still loaded with coveted features -- panoramic city and canyon views, private courtyard and a built-in brick BBQ.
But, there may be an obstacle. As we first reported ... the rapper died in the house back in September from an overdose. And, there's a law in California (Civil Code 1710.2) that requires realtors to disclose to anyone buying or renting a house that someone died there within 3 years of a transaction.
Superstitious renters need not apply.

Blac Chyna Check Out My New $3M Crib
Blac Chyna's getting ready to move into a new crib ... and it cost her a pretty penny.
TMZ's learned BC just threw down $3 million on a pad in the San Fernando Valley. The house is a knockout -- 6 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms sitting on nearly half an acre. It gets better ... the 7,054 sq. foot home also features a guest house with 2 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms.
Guessing Chyna's big on wine ... the house has a custom-built glass wine cellar. Here's to more wasted appeals!!!
Andre Manoukian and Kozet Luciano from Keller Williams Studio City were the listing agents.

The Weeknd Hey, Bella ..... Shack Up with Me in My New $60k/Month Condo!!!
The Weeknd and Bella Hadid are getting VERY serious ... so serious in fact, he's asked her to come live with him in an incredible new NYC condo.
Sources close to the couple tell us the singer signed a lease on a $60,000 per month condo in Tribeca. NY Post was the first outlet to report the move. Shortly after signing on the dotted line, Abel invited longtime girlfriend Bella Hadid to shack up with him, who we're told happily obliged.
As we reported, Weeknd and Bella reconnected months ago after some time off from one another. Now it appears all the possible bad blood is way behind them, and they're strong as ever.
Massive real estate purchases certainly aren't a new thing for Abel ... he plunked down $20 million on a sprawling estate in Hidden Hills just last year.
It's good to be bi-coastal.

Kylie Jenner & Travis Scott Snap Up Bev Hills Mansion for $13.45M
Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott are ready to live in the Hills -- Beverly Hills, that is ... where they just dropped a fortune on a new home.
TMZ has confirmed that the new parents recently purchased a mansion together in the Beverly Hills Post Office neighborhood of L.A. for a whopping $13.45 million. They own the home as joint tenants, so they're co-owners. Presumably, that means they went halfsies on the crib.
This is the first property Kylie and Travis own together and it's a beaut, with a 2,300 square foot master bedroom alone and every other luxury you could imagine, including a multi-car garage, a gym, a massage room and more -- it's right up the Kardashians' alley.
Like we've told you ... Kylie already owns a home by herself in Hidden Hills, for which she dropped $12 million. That was her fourth property, and this would be her fifth. She also just recently listed a pricey pile of dirt for $5.55 mil.
Kylie and Travis were repped by Tomer Fridman and Carl Gambino.
Check out the new pad though ... looks perfect for baby Stormi and the rest of the fam.

Jake Paul Sued You Forged My Name on a Lease ... And Then Trashed the Joint!!!
4:42 PM PT -- A source close to Jake tells us the social media star never forged Goodrich's signature. In fact, we're told his signature is nowhere on the lease at all ... he was only listed as a potential tenant. Our source says the actual tenant is 10 Digit Media, so any claim that Goodrich was used for his good credit is BS.
Jake Paul forged his buddy's signature and used his good credit to lease a rental property the social media star eventually trashed ... according to the friend who's now suing the prankster and a couple of his pals.
According to legal docs obtained by TMZ ... Max Goodrich claims he and Jake considered moving in together at the rental property the YouTube star used for many of his pranks ... but after Max backed out, Jake and 2 of his friends used Max's high credit score, forged his name and put him on the lease.
We broke the story ... Jake and Max are being sued by the homeowners for allegedly leaving the place in ruins following Jake's year-and-a-half tenancy ... but now Max claims his name should never have been on the lease in the first place.
Max is suing Jake for fraud and wants Jake to cover any damages from the homeowner's lawsuit.

Yasiel Puig's Home Heavy Police Presence During World Series
The Boys in Blue were looking out for the Boys in Blue during Game 1 of the World Series -- check out the heavy LAPD presence in front of Yasiel Puig's home on Tuesday!
As we previously reported, cops had reached out to several Dodgers players to help make sure their homes were protected during the series -- unlike last year when Puig's home was burglarized during Game 7.
Cops believe Puig -- and several other high-profile people -- were targeted by a burglary ring that knew when Yasiel (and others) would be out of their homes.
So, this time ... with Puig and the Dodgers in Boston, the LAPD sent a few units to Yasiel's house to make sure the bad guys know they ain't playin' around this time!
Law enforcement tells us ... it's not just Dodgers who are getting the extra protection, they're helping out anyone they feel could be a target.

Nick Jonas I Bought a Cool Home For My Wife-to-Be!!!
Nick Jonas might have been looking ahead when he dropped millions on a pad before popping the question to Priyanka Chopra.
Nick's the new owner of the swanky $6.5 million crib in Beverly Hills Post Office -- for all you out-of-towners, it's adjacent to Bev Hills and shares the same zip code -- who popped the question to Priyanka 3 months later.
The house is pretty incredible -- 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms sit on 4,129 square feet. The pad's an architectural masterpiece ... featuring expansive canyon views, a floating guest wing and an extended wood terrace that wraps around the swimming pool.
Fun fact -- there are lots of homes on L.A. mountainsides where the backyards are cantilevered and seem to be floating. They're super reinforced to withstand earthquakes ... hopefully.
Brian Courville from Pacific Union was the listing agent and Carl Gambino from Westside Estate Agency repped Nick.
