What has Neil Patrick Harris Seeing Red?

It's no secret that the real estate industry in Los
Angeles can be a dirty buisness, but a deal-gone-wrong
has Lance Bass, former member of the boy band NSYNC,
seeing red.

Lance says he was used by real estate agent, Douglas Elliman, to drive up the price of the Brady Bunch house.

He states that a corporate buyer, Hollywood studio', wants the house at any price. "I truly believe I was used to drive up the price of the home, knowing very well that this corporation intended on making this offer and it's not a good feeling. ... I'm hurt and saddened by this highly questionable outcome. I just hope it is not demolished."

The neighborhood around the house has been inundated with deep-pocketed developers who buy and tear down old homes to build bigger, brand-new macmansions.

Ludacris...just earned a fan for life!

The Fast and the Furious star paid for a strangers

store to spend a gift card from a friend helping her
through a particularly tough time: Her hot water
went out just as one of her employers failed to pay
her on time, which added to her stress as a caregiver
and the sole owner of multiple pets, following her
husband's death from brain cancer several years ago.
