Celebrity Homes

Minnie Driver's years-long war with her neighbor has finally come to an end ... TMZ has learned.

According to legal docs ... Minnie and her neighbor, Daniel Perelmutter, reached a settlement in their heated dispute over their property line. The exact terms of their peace agreement are not included in the docs -- but sources connected to both parties tell us money did change hands. The case was scheduled to go to trial soon.

We've chronicled their battles since 2015. Highlights include Minnie claiming Daniel blew cigar smoke in her children's faces and told her to "f*** off and die" -- and Daniel suing Minnie for chucking baby food jars filled with paint at his house. She also got a restraining order against him.

Cops had to get involved in 2016 to break up a shouting match between them.

New York Yankees star Giancarlo Stanton has no problem hitting them out of the ballpark, and same goes for his choice of homes.

The former Miami Marlins right fielder was renting this $8 million crib in the Hollywood Hills during the offseason. He's from L.A. and was training in town.

The 3-bedroom, 4-bath contemporary home boasts panoramic views of L.A. There's a wine cellar, massage room, sauna, and pool with a sitting area and fireplace built in the middle of it, but the coolest thing about the pad is the interior lighting and suede-lined closet. It was also once Sammy Davis Jr.'s home.

While Viola Davis was teaching us how to get away with murder on TV, would-be burglars were attempting a break-in at her real-life home ... TMZ has learned.

We're told that Viola and her husband, Julius Tennon, were fast asleep in their bedroom on the second floor, when they were awakened by the sound of glass breaking ... glass from a door in their bedroom!

Turns out the burglars climbed a ladder to the second floor and jumped on the balcony that was off the master.

The couple flipped on the lights and that sent the prowlers running. When police arrived, the bad guys were long gone. But cops have a lead ... surveillance video shows three men wearing hoodies and gloves.

Same old story ... cops still say celebs aren't being specifically targeted, even though Viola joins a long list of stars who have been hit in 2018 alone.

Kendrick Lamar is dipping his feet into investment real estate with the purchase of a $2.65 million crib in Calabasas.

The "Humble" rapper just bought the 6-bedroom, 6-bathroom 5,400 square foot pad in Calabasas.

Kendrick's an L.A. native and is known as a smart spender ... buying his sister a Toyota for her birthday last year.

Our sources say Kendrick will not live in the home ... it's strictly for investment. Truth be told, entertainers who use their money to buy investment properties almost always score big over time.

The pad comes with a pool, giant backyard, double-sided fireplaces and a home gym.

Kendrick was repped by Kathy Tyndall of Re/Max Estate Properties in the sale ... Jennifer Winchell of Rodeo Realty sold the home.

Larry Ellison is continuing his domination of Malibu beachfront real estate ... scooping up his 12th property in the area for an astounding $38 million.

Ellison -- the billionaire co-founder of Oracle -- just bought the 7-bedroom, 8-bath home from movie producer Joel Silver. Silver originally listed the home for $52 million ... so technically, Ellison got it at a great deal.

Larry's become a Malibu real estate mogul, buying his first Carbon Beach property back in 2002.

The new pad's main house features 5,600 square feet of living space ... there's also a detached guest house with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Hugh Hefner's widow, Crystal Harris, has slashed $700k off the price of her Hollywood Hills home after 3 months on the market with no takers.

Crystal listed the 6,000 square foot home for $7.2 million back in January. The modern pad's now going for just under $6.5 mil and she's now hired realtor to the stars Jason Oppenheim, owner and president of The Oppenheim Group, to help move the property.

The gated 4 bedroom, 6 bath has a pool, theater, game room and sweet views of the city.

Tyga is nothing if not predictable, because he's being sued again where he lives ... and he also got his poor little son sued in the process.

Mezhgan Hussainy, Simon Cowell's makeup artist who he was once set on marrying, has a super cool house in Bev Hills that she rented to him for $40k a month. Tyga moved in in March 2017 and paid rent for awhile .. until he didn't.

Hussainy claims the rent check stopped in January and he's made no effort to catch up.

J Lo and A-Rod's latest purchase screams they're in this thing for the long haul -- or maybe just the kick-ass views from their new home ... the first they've bought together.

We got these pics of the $15.3 million apartment the couple just snapped up, and the place is insane. It's 4,000 sq ft, 3 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms and that's all inside the 432 Park Avenue -- known as the world's tallest residential building.

We kinda got the feeling they'd get a pad together, since J Lo put her 26th Street penthouse on the market for $27 million last October. Btw, Alex and Jen didn't even break the bank, as far as this building is concerned. A Saudi retail mogul reportedly bought the penthouse for $87.7 million!

Zay Hilfigerrr found a new use for a fire extinguisher -- instead of using it to put out a blaze ... he fanned the flames of a feud with his roommate.

The "Juju On That Beat" rapper's seen on video -- obtained by TMZ -- arguing with his roomie off camera with extinguisher in hand ... then taking a few steps toward him and shooting a cloud of fire-squelching chemicals.

Later in the vid ... Zay's heard telling the story of what escalated the dust-up, claiming his roommate accused him of partying and putting a hole in the wall. Zay says his roomie also talked smack about his mom and friends.

The rapper tells us he didn't cause any damage, and was actually getting his stuff to move out when his roommate confronted him along with 3 other guys ... and Zay says everything he did -- including the blast from the fire extinguisher -- was in self-defense.

We broke the story ... cops responded to a 911 call by Hilfigerrr's roommate, who claimed he was being attacked by Zay at their North Hollywood home last week. Police restored the peace while the rapper got his stuff and left.

Heidi Klum's got a luxurious new space in Manhattan to do anything she wants with ... because that's the deal -- it demands total renovation.

The world-famous supermodel bought the huge penthouse loft -- 5,000 sq. feet with 12 ft. high ceilings -- in SoHo last month, but it's been completely gutted ... aside from the original wooden columns and beams.

Even though it's bare, the space boasts massive new windows for abundant light ... along with views of One World Trade Center, Skyline and 56 Leonard Street.

We're told the loft -- which was listed by Edward Hickey of Compass -- had been used as an authentic art studio for the past 30 years, but it's unclear if Heidi plans to use it for business or turn it into her new home ... or both.

John Mahoney, the beloved dad on "Frasier," left behind millions of dollars ... and TMZ's learned there's a long list of potential benefactors.

John's friend, Bernard Dowling, filed legal docs in Cook County, Illinois to open a probate case for his estate. According to docs, obtained by TMZ, John's estate is worth north of $5 million, including around $300k worth of real estate. There are also 38 relatives and friends listed as potential benefactors.

TMZ broke the story ... John died in hospice care back in February. As we first reported ... the official causes of death included brain disease, lung cancer and seizures. He also suffered from kidney disease and diabetes.

John played Kelsey Grammer's cranky father, Martin Crane, for 11 seasons on the hit sitcom.

Rest easy Gronk, the scumbag who allegedly broke into your Massachusetts house is behind bars.

Gronkowski's house was burglarized on February 5 ... while RG was in Minnesota for the Super Bowl. Gronk's bedroom was locked, so the burglars never entered his room ... however, stuff was taken from the house.

After a 6-week investigation, Foxborough PD announced they arrested a man named Anthony Almeida -- 31 years old.

Almeida was charged with breaking and entering, 2 counts of receiving stolen property, and malicious destruction of property.

Police say they recovered an Apple Watch, a Rolex, and 2 rare coins. They are still looking for multiple firearms that were taken.

But that's not all ... cops are on the hunt for 2 other men they believe also participated in the robbery.

FYI -- Gronk PERSONALLY made the 911 call ... saying "This isn't an emergency ... this is just uh, Rob Gronkowski calling. And while I was gone, my whole house got robbed while on the Super Bowl trip and I just got back."

"Weird Al" Yankovic's wife was so freaked out by a string of events at their home -- including an ominous phone call and man lurking on their property -- she called police in a panic.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Al's wife, Suzanne, called cops to their L.A. home earlier this week after receiving a creepy call from a man. It's unclear exactly what the caller said, but it was enough for Suzanne to feel scared.

We're told when officers arrived, Suzanne also informed them she'd seen a man standing in her yard just a few days before. Suzanne said she locked eyes with the trespasser and he took off.

Our sources say cops determined no crime had been committed, but they took a trespassing report.

Liberace's penthouse -- featured in the 2013 film "Behind the Candelabra" -- has undergone a major makeover and is no longer a home ... but a company's headquarters.

TMZ has learned the legendary pianist's former pad in L.A.'s Fairfax District is now the perfect fantasy office of women's fashion and lifestyle company NYLON Media. The glam space is filled with jewel tones, soft textures and gold details ... without forgetting Liberace's lavish style.

We're told Liberace's old living room is now NYLON's main headquarters, and his master bedroom has been transformed into NYLON's music and sound studio.

One of the main attractions of the penthouse -- the pool -- is still a hot spot ... but now serves as a venue for work events.

Anna Gunn's home alarm system came through in a big way by alerting her that a potential thief was lurking outside, and Anna was able to scare the perp off ... TMZ has learned.

The "Breaking Bad" actress was at her L.A. pad in the Valley Thursday night when somebody smashed one of her back windows and triggered her alarm ... according to law enforcement sources. We're told Anna was quick to act and turn on the lights ... causing the suspect or suspects to take off.

Anna made a 911 call and cops arrived shortly after and other than the broken window ... we're told everything at her home's shipshape.

As we've reported ... a crime wave of celeb burglaries has hit the Valley the past several months, but fortunately for Gunn the thieves left empty-handed this time.

She must have a security system like Joe Jonas.

Kyle Schmid -- the actor who stars as a Navy SEAL team leader on the show, "SIX" -- got totally JACKED ... not in the way SEALs do, though he's feeling the pain.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Kyle's apartment in the L.A. area was burglarized. We're told Kyle came home and noticed the sliding door to his balcony was open ... leading cops to believe that was the point of entry.

Problem was ... the sliding door didn't trigger an alarm ... which allowed the perp to search the home and get away with around $30k worth of jewelry. We're told several other units in the same complex were hit that night. LAPD's now investigating.

As we've reported -- again and again and again -- the L.A. area has seen a rash of burglaries involving tons of celebs.

So far, no one's been nabbed in Kyle's burglary.
