Accountant to Jaime Pressly Take My Damn Money Already ... And Leave Me Alone!!!

Published | Updated

Jaime Pressly agreed to settle with her ex-accountant who allegedly screwed her out of almost a million dollars -- for a lot less -- but he says she's now reneging on the deal.

TMZ broke the story ... Pressly sued Daniel Rivero in January 2015 for $900k, claiming he overpaid her landscaper and messed up her taxes. According to the new docs ... the 2 agreed to settle the suit for less than a third of that -- $260k.

Rivero claims this should be a done deal, but there's a big problem ... Pressly won't sign standard paperwork releasing him from further claims. He says she's being unreasonable and it's a "thinly veiled attempt" to renege on the settlement and try to get more money.

Rivero is asking the court to force Pressly to honor the deal.

Mariah Carey, James Packer Craziest Prenup Ever!!!

Published | Updated

Mariah Carey and James Packer were negotiating one of the most insane prenups we've ever seen ... and it reads like she's a mail order bride with lots of strings attached.

Before we tell you what it says, we know the negotiations blew up. We're told Mariah's people got the draft from Packer's exec, Robert Rankin, and rejected it as "tacky and insulting."

Among the conditions ... "Except for gifts between them for their engagement, wedding or on birthdays and anniversaries, no item of jewelry and/or personal adornment costing over $250,000 will be deemed a gift unless accompanied by, or promptly followed by, a writing specifically stating 'This is my gift to you.'"

It goes on ... James agreed to purchase certain clothing for Mariah but there's a blank space for them to agree upon a maximum amount he has to shell out. It states ... the clothing is not to be used for business or performing and "Mariah shall provide all clothing for her children."

And there's this ... "James shall cause a credit card(s) to be issued for use by Mariah and staff ... the amount of expenses ... shall not exceed US $____ per calendar month." The amount was blank.

The prenup continues ... "James shall provide the use of one private aircraft, of his selection, for Mariah's personal use, or that of her children and nannies only when James, in his sole discretion, determines it is appropriate to do so."

The central reason why negotiations blew up ... the provision that said "James will pay Mariah, and Mariah shall accept, $6 million dollars per year for each full year of marriage, up to a maximum of $30 million ... adjusted pro-rata on a weekly basis [$151,385 per week]."

Our Mariah sources say she rejected the dollar amount and claims James agreed to a $50 million lump sum if the marriage failed.

So much for love.

She doesn't include the current value of the paintings, but only because she hasn't had them appraised yet. As for vehicles -- she says their Ferrari and Jeep are worth about $133k, and she wants her cut.

It's gonna be a very green Christmas for Mariah Carey ... whose services don't come cheap, but Saks Fifth Avenue is happy to ante up a sack full o' cash.

Stevie J It's Baby Time And Joseline's Out for Blood

Published | Updated

Stevie J is about to get some baby news he may not want, with the help of a judge and even a little bloodletting.

Joseline Hernandez just filed legal docs demanding that Stevie J take a paternity test, and she's so positive it will prove he's the father of her unborn baby ... she's also asking for child support and a parenting plan.

Stevie has been vague about the kid, not publicly saying it's his but not denying it either.

Joseline claims in the legal docs Stevie has privately agreed to pay her medical expenses associated with the pregnancy, although she does not say he fessed up to fatherhood.

It's now apparent she doesn't think she'll get any money from him, so she's asking a judge to extract it, and STAT.

Joseline's due in January, and now, based on some new medical advancements, all she needs to do is have some blood drawn and ... voila -- Stevie J will know his fate.

Maybe the most awesome "Maury" ever ... right?

Mariah Carey James Packer Tells Team, 'F*** Off' I'm Getting Married!!!

Published | Updated

We spoke to a rep for James Packer who tells TMZ, the prenup offer "is grossly inaccurate and completely untrue."

Mariah Carey has demanded $50 million from ex-fiance James Packer because that is the amount she would have walked away with had they signed their prenup ... sources close to the singer tell TMZ.

TMZ has seen an email chain from back in mid-February going back and forth, from Mariah's team to Packer's. The billionaire was clearly itching to tie the knot with Mariah, upset that his people were not moving fast enough to nail down the prenup so he could marry her on March 1st in Bora Bora.

Packer's lawyers clearly felt the prenup was complicated, sending Mariah's team a 100 page document outlining the specifics. The details in the document are fascinating. Among the many conditions ... if Packer gave Mariah a piece of jewelry or anything else, she would have to give it back if they broke up UNLESS he sent her a signed note saying it was a gift.

The prenup draft also provided that Mariah would get $50 mil if they broke up. TMZ broke the story, that's exactly the amount she's demanding from him now.

Short story ... Packer's lawyers were telling him they could not get the prenup signed, sealed and delivered by March 1st. His response ... "I don't know who's working for who because there are a lot of names I haven't heard before on this email chain. The people who work for me -- message -- do as I say or f*** off. I want to get married on March 1st. James."

We're told at the time of the email chain, Mariah already had a dress, the flowers were ordered and all the flights for the guests were secured.

BTW ... there was no way they could marry, because Nick Cannon hadn't signed the divorce docs. Mariah and James knew this, but they were going to call the wedding a "commitment ceremony" and pass themselves off as husband and wife.

The prenup was never signed, and Mariah believes that's when his people started trying to tear them apart.

The lawyer says the entire debt will be paid by November 17th.

We're told Tyga himself is footing the bill, not the Kardashian klan.
