Bruce Willis Want My Central Park Crib? Cough Up $17.75m!!!

Published | Updated

Bruce Willis is scaling back ... and no better way to do that than to unload a crib that practically features Central Park as the front yard.

Bruce has just listed his NYC duplex for a cool $17.75 million. He bought it for $16.995 million back in 2015 but Bruce and his wife, Emma Heming, are reportedly not spending as much time in the crib to justify keeping it ... so time to unload.

The lucky buyer gets an apartment that's around 6,000 square feet and once used to be 2 separate apartments. The 6 bedroom, 5 bathroom pad features 150 feet of Central Park frontage and a master suite with a luxurious bathroom with Central Park views.

Fit for a star ... check that, an action star.

'American Chopper' Star Ol' Paul Teutul Has a Farm ... But Needs A Bigger One!!!

Published | Updated

Paul Teutul Sr. wants to ride off into the sunset with more land and more animals, but he's gotta unload his old ranch first, so he slashed the price ... TMZ has learned.

The "American Chopper" star recently dropped asking price from $2.9 million to $2.5 mil for his 38-plus-acre upstate New York spread. We're told he's on the hunt for a place with more land for his rescue animals. Fun fact about Paul ... he's VP of the Hudson Valley SPCA.

Paul originally put the Montgomery, NY home on the market in Oct. It's got 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, attached pool house and, of course, the pool ... complete with slide and waterfall! His listing agent is Seta Tunell with Ellis Sotheby's International Realty.

The home was frequently featured on 'Chopper' ... which, btw, is coming back to TV this February after a 5-year hiatus. We're told Paul's animal rescue operation -- with mini-horses, donkeys and alpacas -- will be prominently featured.

Trent Reznor My Neighbor Has It Out For Me ... Don't Let Him Get Any Closer!!!

Published | Updated

Trent Reznor's neighbor has a dangerous hatred of him and has been harassing him and his family for months ... according to new legal docs.

The Nine Inch Nails founder filed paperwork to keep his neighbor Nader Afshar away, claiming the man recently expressed his hatred of Reznor to a friend who was leaving Trent's house ... and yelled at him that "Satan" was going to get Trent.

Reznor claims Afshar behaves irrationally and has been increasingly threatening to him and his family over the past 6 months, and he's had to get police involved.

On Christmas Eve -- according to the docs -- Trent says he was outside playing with his kids when he spotted Afshar "disheveled" wearing an open shirt, shorts and Santa hat ... walking up and down the sidewalk ranting, "rich people can do anything they want, but the Lord will get them in the end."

Trent asked a judge to to keep his neighbor at least 10 yards away from him, his family and employees while they're working at his residence ... the judge agreed.

A court hearing on the matter's set for next month.

Jeff Bridges My Home Next to Oprah's Wrecked By Mudslide

Published | Updated

Now we know to whom Oprah was referring on video when she pointed to a neighbor's home that was decimated by the mudslides ... it was the home of actor Jeff Bridges.

The star of "The Big Lebowski" bought the home 3 years ago for $6.8 million. We're told the house could be a total loss, but it's impossible to know at this point because the debris makes the extent of damage almost impossible to assess. Bridges says at the very least, the 3,300 square foot home was "severely damaged."

Oprah trudged through the mud the day after the slides hit and pointed out the home, but never said who owned it.

The slides have killed at least 17 people and 8 are still missing. A hundred homes were destroyed.

Jeff owned another home in Montecito but sold it for $16 million less than a year ago.

Timbaland Drops $4 Million for SICK Miami Condo!!!

Published | Updated

Timbaland knows value when he sees it ... that's why he dropped FOUR MILLION BUCKS for a condo that's still under construction.

The mega hitmaker spent a small fortune on this plush Miami crib in the 53-story Aria on the Bay building that's nearing completion. Timbaland's oasis is a 6-bedroom, 8-bathroom pad that will include 2 private elevators. The new digs will be finished in about 2 months.

The condo's interior will be a sprawling 4,700 square feet and the terrace alone -- with unobstructed bay and ocean views -- is an expansive 1,200 square feet. The building's 648 luxury condos also have access to baller amenities -- pools, hot tubs, fire pits, private spa, and an indoor/outdoor bar.

How baller's the building? Yankees star Giancarlo Stanton bought a penthouse there.

Timbaland was repped by Tim Elmes and Marc Hameroff, and John Parsiani repped the seller.

Oprah Captures Crushing Mudslide Damage ... Around Montecito Home

Published | Updated

Oprah's potential presidential hopes are taking an immediate backseat to Mother Nature -- 'cause her and her neighbors' homes have been rocked by mudslides in Montecito.

O posted video of property damage around what appears to be her main house in Santa Barbara County after torrential rainfall caused flash flooding and deadly mudslides in the area. She's also got a separate horse farm nearby.

You can see mud getting as high as her knees here in what used to be the pristine grounds surrounding her property. She says her neighbors got the worst of it.

Oprah isn't the only star to be affected by the mudslides -- which have killed at least 15 people in Southern California so far. Rob Lowe tweeted about the natural disaster, as did Ellen DeGeneres and Bella and Gigi Hadid.

As we reported ... rumors have been swirling this week that Oprah might be considering a presidential bid for 2020. She's clearly not thinking about that right now, though.

Hopefully, there's a lot more of Brady's house -- and Gisele.

'Pretty Little Liars' Star Lucy Hale Home Burglarized Over $15k of Goods Stolen

Published | Updated

Lucy Hale is out at least $15,000, and probably even more, after her home was hit by burglars ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us the "Pretty Little Liars" actress' San Fernando Valley home was broken into and burglarized very early Friday morning. We're told the perp smashed through one of her front windows and stole jewelry and purses currently valued in excess of $15k -- but that number is likely to go up once full inventory is taken.

Lucy was not home at the time of the break-in. We're also told her alarm was on, and all signs point to this being a random hit ... not a case of burglars targeting a specific celeb.

That jibes with the string of burglaries over the last year -- which, as we've told you, cops believe are being carried out by professionals looking for nice houses. Celebs just seem to be casualties getting hit along the way.

Kanye West & Kim Kardashian Worked with Famed Designer To Perfect Crib's Look

Published | Updated

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian teamed up with a renowned designer to create the masterpiece that is now their Hidden Hills home ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to the couple tell us ... Kanye's a huge fan of Axel Vervoordt's work, so he sought him out and convinced him to help design their mansion. We're told Kim gave Kanye the reins ... and he collaborated with Axel on nearly every aspect of the house.

As for the design ... it's what's come to be expected with Kanye -- VERY minimal ... much like their recently sold Bel-Air mansion. The partnership makes sense too -- Vervoordt's known for minimalist interiors "infused with a serene sense of history and timelessness."

Our sources say Kim and Kanye's new home features other signature styles too ... like tonal colors and every piece of furniture being custom made.

As we reported ... all the remodeling and attention to detail's paid off, because the home is valued at $60 million -- $20 mil more than what they put into it.

THE BUILDING ABLAZE

6:05 AM PT -- The fire is extinguished, and firefighters say 2 civilians were injured -- one potentially life-threatening -- as well as one firefighter.

Trump Tower provided an eerie canvas for a photographer who snapped this pic as an area of the building burned.

A fire erupted Monday just after 7 AM ET and obviously NYC fire crews rushed to the scene. Especially because of the building owner, law enforcement had a large and quick reaction.

The fire started on the roof and we're told it was some kind of electrical malfunction. There were no evacuations and no injuries. The fire was quickly extinguished.

Trump and his family were not home at the time the blaze broke out.

Khloe Kardashian Spruces Up Crib For New Bambino

Published | Updated

Khloe Kardashian's first order of business when she got pregnant? Grab a hard hat!!!

Sources close to Khloe tell TMZ ... she had extravagant renovation plans for her Calabasas crib -- the one she bought from Justin Bieber in 2014 -- by turning a bedroom next to her master into a closet big enough for her massive clothes and shoe collection.

But, life happened. As TMZ first reported ... NBA superstar BF Tristan Thompson knocked up Khloe. So, that bedroom-turned-closet is going back to bedroom ... baby bedroom.

Khloe wants the baby's room as close to hers as possible, and that room's the perfect fit.

We're told Khloe is holding nothing back when it comes to the fine details of the room ... buying top of the line furnishings, decor and clothing.

Mom always knows best.

Celebrity Burglaries Thieves Target The Valley Multiple Bling Rings in Play

Published | Updated

Kyle Richards, Yasiel Puig, Mariah Carey, Jason Derulo and Scott Disick ... ya know what they have in common? They've all been hit by burglars, and now we know cops have a take on who's doing it.

Law enforcement sources tell us ... most of the celebs have been hit by professional burglars, who know the weak points of a home and how to penetrate them. For example, a number of the break-ins have been through second floor balcony windows, accessed by a ladder. The reason ... many homeowners don't put alarms on second floor doors and windows.

Cops also say there seems to have been a migration ... burglars are now hitting the San Fernando Valley more than the Hollywood area, where the first wave of break-ins occurred. The LAPD is investigating 23 celebrity burglary cases ... of those, 19 occurred in the Valley.

In case you're interested, the area of the Valley where many of these celebs live is pretty secluded, so it's easy to hit a home, drive to a freeway and get lost among the zillion drivers.

Now the big question ... Is this like another Bling Ring? Cops tell us the answer is no. There are various, sophisticated groups of burglars hitting posh areas of L.A. Police say there have also been an incredible number of non-celebrity hits. These burglars are looking for nice houses with nice contents ... they're not looking for famous victims.

Still ... hard to imagine a few of these hits were planned after the celeb homeowners posted their out-of-town pics on social media.

Kim & Kanye Gotta Spend $$$ to Make $$$ Up Millions on New Home!!!

Published | Updated

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have poured boatloads of cash into their Hidden Hills home over the past few years, but it was all worth it ... because the house is now $20 million ABOVE water.

Sources tell us ... the couple sunk around $20 mil into renovations since they bought the property -- once owned by Lisa Marie Presley -- in 2014 for $20 mil. It's been in a constant state of design, re-design, construction and expansion -- not to mention all the landscaping -- until they finally moved in a few weeks ago.

Now get this ... we're told Kim and Kanye had the property appraised ... and the estimated value is $60 million. Do the math, and they're in the black $20 mil.

As we reported ... the couple's new compound includes a full music lab for Kanye, a huge master bedroom addition, a spa and massive closet space. We're told there's plenty more to come in backyard magic.

Kyle Richards Hey, Burglars ... Beware My Trained Dogs!!!

Published | Updated

Kyle Richards is sending a message to any other burglars thinking of trying to break into her home again -- letting 'em know she has 3 large dogs ready and willing ... to lick their faces off.

Kyle posed with her pooches, which she says just got back from dog training. However, based on those adorable faces ... we're guessing it's more obedience than attack dog school. Ok, maybe the German Shepherd would mess you up ... but the other two? C'mon, look at those mugs.

As we reported, Kyle and Mauricio Umansky's new Encino home was broken into last week while they were on vacation in Aspen. The burglars made off with about $1 million in jewelry and handbags. The dogs were not at the home either.

We'll say this ... they probably bark really loud. That helps.

Bill and Hillary Clinton House Fire!!!

Published | Updated

2:47 PM PT -- A Secret Service rep tells us the fire started in the ceiling of the second floor. Agents were able to use fire extinguishers to put the blaze out ... the fire department came to inspect and ensure everything was safe.

2:12 PM PT -- A rep for Hillary says the fire started in the Secret Service facility on the property, which is not connected to the main home. The Clintons were not home when the fire started.

12:22 PM PT -- The fire appears to have been on the second floor of the structure ... according to the local department, it's been mostly extinguished but crews are checking for anything additional.

The New York home of Bill and Hillary Clinton is on fire.

The Chappaqua Fire Dept. tells TMZ a structure on the property is ablaze and they are on the scene trying to control it.

We don't know whether the main structure was involved or if an ancillary structure such as a garage or guest house was on fire.

The Clinton's bought the home next door to their Chappaqua mansion in 2016 and turned the properties into a single compound.

We will update when we know the extent of the damage.

Kim Kardashian Our Home Is Now Jewelry Free!!! New Mansion, New Policy

Published | Updated

Kim and Kanye's new mansion -- the one they spent years renovating and finally moved into a few weeks ago -- has its first house rule ... NO JEWELRY ALLOWED!!!

Our Kardashian sources tell us Kim decided to put the policy in place at the Hidden Hills home because she doesn't want it to be a target for thieves. In essence, she's throwing up her version of the bat signal ... NOTHING TO STEAL HERE!

We're told the very few pieces that Kim does still own are being stored elsewhere -- under constant supervision -- with very elaborate security measures to get to it. And despite the lack of jewelry at their new place ... we're told armed security's still on guard 24/7.

The move makes it clear ... the trauma of the Paris robbery is still on Kim and Kanye's minds. Especially with a new baby due this month.

Our sources say if and when Kim does decide to wear jewelry of her own again, it'll be replicas or fakes.. However, we're told if Kim decides to borrow real pieces for an event, it will NOT be allowed in the home ... a stylist will meet with her right before said event and take it back right after.

As we've reported ... there have also been a string of celebrity burglaries over the past year, with 'Real Housewives' Kyle Richards being the most recent victim.

Lesson learned for Kim.
