Kids

Chad Johnson's money woes have gotten so bad, his expenses outpace his income to the tune of $45,982.76 per month ... TMZ has learned.

As TMZ first reported, Johnson has been battling his baby mamas in an effort to lower his child support payments ... seeing as he no longer makes the cash he used to at the height of his NFL career.

In docs filed in April, Johnson claims to only make about $3,000/month ... but that immediately disappears thanks to the $16,525 he already pays in child support.

Then when you get to his own expenses, Johnson forks over $9,063.24 in mortgage payments, $2,500 for food, $2,650 on car expenses, $3,500 on clothing, $250 for grooming, $5,000 on entertainment, $1,000 for pet expenses along with various other expenses that total $31,154.76.

Add it all up ... and Johnson is in the red $45,982.76/month.

But it's not all bad news ... Chad still has two houses, two cars, and a few bank accounts that put his assets at a nice $4,720,672.57.

Maybe 30 days behind bars wouldn't be such a bad thing ... FREE MEALS!

The singing, dancing and chattering cousins who have become famous on Ellen DeGeneres' show are making some serious pocket money -- at least for a kid.

Ten-year-old Sophia Grace Brownlee and 6-year-old Rosie McClelland are rakin' in the cash by acting in a new Nickelodeon show, "Sam & Cat."

Each little one will score $2,119.70 plus a $1,000 travel stipend, according to their minor's contracts which were filed with the court and obtained by TMZ.

The girls got their big break when Sophia Grace posted a video of herself singing on YouTube with Rosie ... it got Ellen's attention and hey ... they're now in Justin Bieber territory!

It beats selling lemonade.

Charlie Sheen won't be banging Farrah Abraham any time soon -- at least that's what he says. Lots of stars had lots of strife this week, so we gotta ask ...

Brooke Mueller isn't fit to get her kids back in the foreseeable future ... this according to Children Services, and TMZ has learned a court fight is underway.

Sources close to the situation tell us, Mueller wants her kids back when she leaves rehab -- probably in 60 days. But officials from the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services have had it with Brooke's proclamations that she's cured -- something she's said after each of the nearly 2 dozen times she's relapsed.

Four-year-old twins Bob and Max are currently under the temporary custody of Denise Richards, after a judge ruled she's the one who can best care for the kids.

We're told Children Services has filed legal docs trying to block Brooke's attempt to get her children back when she comes back home. DCFS wants the status quo ... so Brooke can be monitored to determine that she's a fit and sober parent. And we're told DCFS thinks proof of Brooke's sobriety will take a long time.

You'll recall ... just before entering Betty Ford, Brooke was placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold after authorities found she was completely out of it, and apparently on drugs, while her kids were in the home.

Debbie Rowe is NOT at odds with Paris Jackson's guardians, Katherine Jackson and TJ Jackson -- and she will not try to wrestle guardianship away unless the situation changes drastically ... because she does not want to split up Michael Jackson's 3 kids.

Sources directly connected with the family tell TMZ ... Debbie has spent a significant amount of time at Katherine's house and "likes and respects" Katherine. We're told Debbie loves TJ, and worries he's taken on so much -- not only is he guardian to MJ's 3 kids, he has a family of his own to care for.

As for Debbie's relationship with Paris, we're told it's "intense." Paris calls Debbie "Mom" and the two interact as mother and daughter, with Debbie often correcting Paris and "laying down the law."

We're told as much as Debbie loves Paris and wants to be with her, she does not want to yank Paris out of the family house and away from her brothers, Prince and Blanket. We're told Debbie is especially worried about Blanket, who is vulnerable and feels abandoned after Michael's death.

Now here's the problem -- We're told Michael's brothers and sisters -- with the exception of Janet -- have been on a campaign against Debbie being part of Paris' life.

Not a big shock, right?

Charlie Sheen is FURIOUS at Farrah Abraham for allegedly leaking their private text message conversation -- and TMZ has learned, he's already sent her the most epic rejection letter of all time ... calling her "a desperate guzzler of stagnant douche agua."

And that's just the beginning. Seriously. Charlie does NOT hold back. Here's the full transcript:

TMZ broke the story ... Farrah reached out to Charlie back in May via text message, saying she hopes to meet Sheen if she can score herself a role on "Anger Management." Charlie responded favorably, agreeing to meet up, but now ... it appears that's changed.

Translation: Farrah can forget about a playdate with Charlie ... but at least she's still a millionaire.

Billy Ray Cyrus is getting divorced ... TMZ has learned.

Billy Ray's wife, Tish Cyrus, is citing "irreconcilable differences" in her filing. Her decision to pull the plug on the marriage comes 3 years after Billy Ray filed for divorce but dropped it in an attempt to work things out.

Billy Ray and Tish have been married for 19 years and have 5 children, including, of course, Miley. There's only one minor child left, Noah Cyrus, who is 13. Tish is asking for full physical and legal custody, with visitation to Billy Ray.

Tish is also asking for spousal support, and she wants him to pay her attorney's fees. The date of separation is listed as TBD.

Tish tells TMZ, "This is a personal matter and we are working to find a resolution that is in the best interest of our family. We ask that you respect our privacy at this time."

A few hours ago, Miley tweeted @billyraycyrus, "since your texts and email obviously aren't working would you like to talk like this?"

Interesting ... when Billy Ray filed the first time he had said Miley's fame compromised their family.

Farrah Abraham has back-door'd her way into the 7-figure range ... 'cause the former MTV star tells TMZ she's a bona fide millionaire.

The 22-year-old just called in to "TMZ Live" to discuss her crush on Charlie Sheen ... when we asked her straight up if her foray into the world of adult entertainment has turned her into a millionaire.

But Farrah's swollen bank account isn't just from the sex tape -- we broke the story, she scored in the high 6-figures when she sold her sex tape to Vivid Entertainment. But she's also locking down endorsement deals ... and collecting checks for public appearances.

A photog (not TMZ) got into a fight with Carey Hart Wednesday night in Malibu ... which ended with cops, EMTs and lots of after-the-fact taunting.

Hart and his wife Pink were at the Malibu Country Mart when the photog allegedly started snapping pics of Pink changing their kid's diaper ... and that set Carey and his buddy off.

Once cops left ... the photog goes off on Carey and his friend.

Farrah Abraham is involved in a full on textual relationship with Charlie Sheen, TMZ has learned -- and the two are now planning to hook up in person.

TMZ has obtained text messages that show the "Backdoor Teen Mom" porn star first reached out to Sheen back in May saying she hopes to meet Sheen if she can score herself a role on "Anger Management."

Farrah even took the initiative ... and asked Sheen out on a date -- either a parent playdate with their kids ... or an adult get together for some coffee.

Sheen's response: "Coffee is for amateurs and grandma."

He also said he's down to meet up ... because ... well, he's probably a big fan of her work.

Farrah followed up with Sheen and asked him to an event she would be attending with some "porn star ppl" ... but Sheen wasn't able to attend.

We're told they have stayed in touch ... and are trying to work out a date to see each other ASAP, but they're both busy with work ... and kids ... and porn.

Stay tuned ...

It's a shocking testament ... Michael Jackson -- who amassed hundreds of millions of dollars during his storied career -- needed the "This Is It" tour so he could afford a house for his children.

During the wrongful death trial Wednesday afternoon ... AEG honcho Randy Phillips told the jury about an emotional meeting he had with MJ around Halloween, 2008. Phillips said a tearful Jackson told him his 3 kids were living "like vagabonds" -- shuttling from a Las Vegas rental to the Bel Air Hotel in L.A.

Phillips said Jackson wanted a home the family could call their own, and needed the "This Is It" tour to make enough money to realize that dream.

Phillips said the meeting was so emotional, both he and Jackson cried.

But get this ... the next day Phillips met MJ again, and the singer revealed the home he wanted to buy --- a 40,000-square-foot estate with a $93 million price tag. Phillips told MJ he thought it was ridiculous to blow his wad on the property.

MJ eventually settled on renting the house where he died.

Former "90210" star Jennie Garth is officially a single woman ... because her divorce from "Twilight" actor Peter Facinelli has been finalized -- and it's quite possibly the most amicable and novel divorce of all time.

As we reported, Garth and Facinelli pulled the plug on their marriage in 2012 after 11 years together. They have three daughters -- 15-year-old Luca Bella, 10-year-old Lola Ray, and 6-year-old Fiona Eve.

The divorce order was officially signed Tuesday -- but the real story ... Garth and Facinelli still totally trust each other -- especially in the money department.

The two have each declined spousal support. As for the children, they're doing something pretty novel. Jennie and Peter are funding a joint bank account for the care and education of their children. Both parents will deposit money in equal amounts. Each has full access to the accounts.

They have also agreed to share 50/50 custody of their daughters and insist they don't need a formal custody arrangement -- unheard of in Hollywood.

Eat your heart out, David Hasselhoff!!!

For the first time in her life, Mama June splashed around in the Atlantic Ocean ... during a family vacation to Tybee Island in Georgia this week.

June posed for some Baywatch-inspired photos ... helped bury Uncle Poodle in the sand ... all while keeping an eye on Honey Boo Boo, who went crazy with an inner tube.

TMZ has obtained the emergency call made from the Lost Hills Sheriff's Dept. to the L.A. County Fire Dept. on June 5 ... reporting that Paris Jackson had "OD'd on 20 Motrin and cut her arm with a kitchen knife."

During the call, the Sheriff's Dept. tells Fire that Paris is "awake and breathing."

The Fire Dept. also asks the Sheriff's Dept. if they want Fire to "stage" -- which is shop talk for "waiting" until the Sheriff's Dept. deems the situation safe to enter.

The Sheriff's Dept. told Fire they didn't have to "stage" because it was not a dangerous situation.

The call was made after Paris herself contacted a suicide hotline.

We broke the story ... Paris was taken from the family's Calabasas home by stretcher at around 2 AM on June 5 ... and an ambulance rushed her to a nearby hospital.

She was placed on an involuntary psychiatric hold for 72 hours at Children's Hospital in L.A. She was moved Sunday to the UCLA medical center for further psychiatric evaluation ... the same place her father died 4 years ago this month.

3:47 AM PT: Hahn is asking for custody of their 1-year-old as well as child support and spousal support.

Hahn states in his divorce filing he wants the divorce on grounds of "cruel and inhuman treatment ... such that the conduct of the defendant [Rachel] so endangers the physical or mental well being of the plaintiff as renders it unsafe or improper for the plaintiff to cohabit with the defendant."

Although Hahn is asking for an "equitable distribution of marital assets," it's pretty certain Rachel's settlement with Tiger Woods will remain hers.

Rachel Uchitel is getting divorced after a stormy relationship that blew up last month when she called 911 on her husband ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with the couple tell TMZ ... Rachel's husband, Matt Hahn, filed for divorce Monday, citing "cruel and inhumane treatment."

Our sources say ... there were many explosive, verbal arguments. We're also told Matt alleges Rachel slapped him after he repeatedly called her names. FYI, Matt is a former Penn State football player.

As for the 911 call ... we're told Rachel called NYC cops on May 16 after a particularly nasty verbal argument, asking for help in getting Matt out of the house. We're told Rachel did not follow up and did not pursue charges against Matt.

Rachel and Matt were married a year-and-a-half ago. They have a 1-year-old daughter.

Rachel's rep, Howard Bragman, tells TMZ, "It is Ms. Uchitel's goal to resolve this action amicably, quickly and quietly and not in the media."

Michael Jackson's family has circled the wagons ... with many family members expressing outrage at the prospect Debbie Rowe could become Paris Jackson's legal guardian ... sources connected with the family tell TMZ.

We broke the story ... Debbie has not made any move to become Paris' guardian after last week's suicide attempt, but she's amenable if Paris wants it. As we reported ... Paris is having trouble connecting with grandma Katherine, and that's one of the reasons she's established a bond with Debbie over the last few months.

Our sources say ... members of the family believe Debbie's motivation is to put herself in the public eye, as evidenced by her statement to the media after the suicide attempt. As one source said, "If her intentions were pure she'd be speaking to the family."

We're told the family will fight Debbie "tooth and nail" if she attempts to secure guardianship.

The criticism is puzzling, because Debbie has stayed out of the spotlight for years, and her statement about Paris had nothing to do with guardianship -- it was merely confirming TMZ's story that Paris had attempted suicide.

Also interesting ... the family is not suggesting Debbie's motivation is money.

The judge in the guardianship case is currently reviewing Katherine's guardianship to determine if she's able to properly care for MJ's 3 kids.
