Mariah and James Shackin' Up in Calabasas

Published | Updated

Mariah Carey and James Packer have just leased a home in Kardashian-land, and it's all about family ... TMZ has learned.

Mariah and James leased a mansion in The Oaks, a fancy gated community in Calabasas. Our Mariah sources say she and James wanted to live in an area that is "family friendly" ... especially because Mariah has the twins full time.

The estate is amazing ... it's 18,000 square feet on one acre with sweeping views. All the stones are imported from Italy, there's a theater, sauna and gym. The house took 5 years to build and has never been on the market.

Our sources say Emil Hartoonian from The Agency brokered the deal ... for an astonishing lease price of around $250,000 a month.

We're told they are leasing the estate with an option to purchase. They shouldn't have trouble coming up with the down payment.

Marshawn Lynch's Mom I Don't Think He'll Retire

Published | Updated

Marshawn Lynch's mother tells TMZ Sports ... she believes her son still has gas left in the tank and will NOT retire ... not yet at least.

We asked Delisa Lynch about the comments Seahawks G.M. John Schneider said about her son -- that he was under the impression Lynch would retire before next season.

But Delisa -- aka Momma Lynch -- says, "I really believe we haven't seen the last of Beast Mode!!!"

She added, "My younger son [Davonte] will be coming out next year. I told [Marshawn] to wait for his brother."

FYI -- Davonte is a running back at New Mexico Highlands University ... and Momma Lynch's goal is to have BOTH of her sons playing in the NFL at the same time!

Fingers crossed!

Denise Richards Charlie Cut My Kids Off And Called Me and My Kids Horrible Names

Published | Updated

Denise Richards claims Charlie Sheen ... has betrayed his own children by turning his back on a trust he created for them .. a trust that promised them a home that he has now taken away ... and Denise also chronicles some shocking text messages she says he sent to their daughters.

Before giving details, we should say Charlie believes this is "a desperate attempt to get more money" ... his lawyer adding Charlie has already paid her almost $20 million, including $660k tax free money every year for the last 9 years.

Denise has filed massive legal docs claiming Charlie promised that if she moved next to him in a house he had purchased in Mulholland Estates, she and the kids would not be evicted. As we reported, she was also getting $55k a month in child support.

Denise says she was reluctant to move, because of Charlie's history and also because he had apparently informed her of his HIV status, telling her he feared he was terminally ill and "wanted to repair his relationship with his children."

7:55 AM PST -- Patty Glaser, Denise's attorney tells us "Not only are Mr. Singer's (Sheen's attorney) about Ms. Richards blatantly inaccurate, they're also inappropriate, and unprofessional. Ms. Richards is doing everything she can to protect her children from the fallout of Mr. Sheen’s erratic lifestyle and its enormously negative impact on their children."
