The Break Bad house is on the market. Latest update on the TikTok ban. Upcoming benefit concert for the LA wildfires victims. Listen for MORE!

In celebrity real estate news, the people who own the Albuquerque house used as Walter White’s home in Breaking Bad have finally had enough. After putting up with people showing up to take pictures at all hours of the day and night and the random threats from crazy people, the owners are putting it up for sale. Louis and Fran Padilla bought their 1910-sq-ft 4BR/1BA home back in 1973 and raised their children there. But in 2006, somebody knocked on the door, and the house became part of TV history. They didn’t just use the facade of the house, either. Bob Cranston and Aaron Paul literally filmed inside the house and Mrs. Padilla would bake treats for the cast and crew! I can’t find how much the Padillas paid for it, but according to the Zillow Zestimate, the house is now worth $343K. They’ve listed it for $4M!! 

In other celebrity real estate news, after 9 months on the market, the Home Alone mansion has a new owner. Tim and Trisha Johnson bought this home in the Chicago suburbs for $1.585M back in 2012. It features 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, a high-end movie theater and an indoor sports court! Unlike the Breaking Bad house, only the exterior of this house was used in the Home Alone movie. The Johnsons listed it for $5.25M, but it went for $5.5M. 

The Supreme Court has decided to hold up a new law banning TikTok as of Sunday. Back in April of last year, Congress passed the bill to ban the Chinese-owned app and President Biden signed it into law. But with the timing of the ban happening over the MLK holiday weekend and the day before the inauguration, the Biden administration says they’re just going to leave this problem for President Trump to deal with, and he’s vowed to save TikTok. His team has actively been exploring options. 

The lineup for the FireAid concert benefiting victims of the LA communities impacted by the devastating and deadly wildfires has been announced.

But before the benefit concert, there will also be a live telethon streaming on multiple YouTube and Twitch channels next Friday, Jan. 24.  

Brianna Chickenfry getting dumped by Zach Bryan last October is turning out to be the best thing that ever happened to her. Even though they’d been talking about their relationship issues privately for several days, Brianna shared on YouTube, “I just woke up to Zach posting on his Instagram that we broke up, and I had no idea that post was going up….He didn’t text me, he didn’t call me……” Days later, Brianna accused Zach of emotional abuse, which she says she’s still not over. But now, she’s getting a little bit of revenge after booking the cover of the digital Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Briana says, “It’s a lot more than me looking quote-unquote hot in a swimsuit — it’s me reclaiming who I am as a woman, reclaiming my body and my decisions and my choices….This cover is me being me again and taking control of my life. This is my body; my body isn’t that experience, and even though I’m not 100% in it right now, this is me. This doesn’t have anything to do with anybody else.” She did admit, however, that the photo shoot “is just, on a petty level, my favorite (BLANK) you. This is me, and I wanted to do this, and now I’m on the digital cover.”

Justin Baldoni has officially filed a $400M lawsuit against Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and their publicist, alleging defamation, extortion, and a whole slew of other offensive actions. This new lawsuit followed the Dec. 31st libel lawsuit Justin filed against The New York Times for its article titled, We Can Bury Anyone: Inside a Hollywood Smear Machine. Justin alleges The Times used “‘cherry-picked’ and altered text-messages stripped of necessary context and deliberately spliced to mislead people into believing that Justin was behind a campaign to destroy Blake’s reputation. In response to yesterday’s lawsuit, Blake’s team released a statement saying this is just “another chapter in the abuser playbook. This is an age-old story: A woman speaks up with concrete evidence of sexual harassment and retaliation and the abuser attempts to turn the tables on the victim. This is what experts call DARVO. Deny. Attack. Reverse Victim Offender.” It continued, “They are trying to shift the narrative to Ms. Lively by falsely claiming that she seized creative control and alienated the cast from Mr. Baldoni. The evidence will show that the cast and others had their own negative experiences with Mr. Baldoni and Wayfarer. The evidence will also show that Sony asked Ms. Lively to oversee Sony’s cut of the film, which they then selected for distribution and was a resounding success. Their response to sexual harassment allegations: she wanted it, it’s her fault. Their justification for why this happened to her: look what she was wearing. In short, while the victim focuses on the abuse, the abuser focuses on the victim. The strategy of attacking the woman is desperate, it does not refute the evidence in Ms. Lively’s complaint, and it will fail.”
