Actor Tom Cruise owns a luxury home in Beverly Hills. The local police had a chance to tour the house recently after prank callers contacted the authorities and requested they send in a swat team. On Jan. 18, Ahlan Live reported the strange real estate news, saying, “Police were sent to… Cruise’s house following a report about an alleged armed intruder on the property.”

According to the source, “The alarm was raised in a call which is now believed to have been a prank after members of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) arrived at the Beverly Hills estate to find nothing suspicious.” The website cites TMZ as the entertainment news source where they derived their information.

The Los Angeles Times is reporting that the house of former reality TV star and legendary heavy metal singer Ozzy Osbourne has some property damage. On Jan. 18, Design Trend reported on the celebrity homes news, saying, “Setting one’s house on fire seems to be the latest trend in celebrity world. [Joining] this list is Sharon Osbourne, whose living room caught fire after she left a candle unattended.”

The home trend journal reports, “On Thursday morning, Sharon realized that their Beverly Hills mansion was on fire after she left a candle alight overnight. She admitted on “The Talk” that though she heard a sound similar to metal hitting the floor early that morning, she guessed it was the housekeeper dropping the keys.”

Brooke Mueller, the ex-wife of actor Charlie Sheen, has gotten famous for her drug-addled antics. But did you know she’s also a well-known for being a street-savvy property investor? In the midst of fighting with her ex-husband circa over whether or not their twins Bob and Max can stay at the home of Denise Richards (circa Dec. 16), she’s been trying to sell her grand “Tarzana” estate in California.

The famous house flipper seems to be off her mark a bit regarding her marketing skills lately — perhaps distracted by her speedy proclivities. Mueller, who recently checked herself into rehab for the 19th time — is allegedly in treatment at the present time for her Adderall addiction.
