Hilary Duff Stuck with $6K/Mo. Bachelorette Pad But Marriage Reunion Looms
Hilary Duff might have just made a $6,000 per month mistake -- she recently signed a lease for a fancy bachelorette pad ... but now she might be getting back together with her estranged husband Mike Comrie.
Real estate sources tell TMZ, Duff signed the lease for the 1,500 sq. ft. 2-bedroom house a couple months ago -- soon after she and the ex-NHL star announced they were separating -- but you may have noticed ... the "separated" couple hasn't been so "separated" recently.
Hilary and Mike have been hanging out a LOT -- Hilary even addressed the ambiguous situation, saying, "We love each other so much, and we love spending time together ... We don't know what our future looks like right now."
So it's unclear if Hilary plans to live in her new house ... or if she plans to let it sit Hilary-less, while she continues to live with Mike in their $3.9 million Beverly Hills mansion.
Sources close to Hilary insist her sister Haylie Duff currently lives in the home -- even though it's in Hilary's name -- but our real estate sources tell us, Hilary has spent significant time there.

Colin Kaepernick Speaks on 911 Calls 'I'm Glad The Truth Is Getting Out'
Colin Kaepernick says he's extremely happy officials released the 911 calls from the sexual assault investigation in Miami -- because he believes the calls help prove he's completely innocent.
Kaepernick just went to Twitter and posted, "On 911 calls, I'm glad the truth is getting out. Info that came out earlier was totally wrong. I look forward to this matter being resolved."
We broke the story ... officials released both calls that were made from the apartment the night of the alleged incident ... with both callers saying a naked woman was laying on a bed and refusing to leave.
One of the callers, Seattle Seahawks receiver Ricardo Lockette (who is also listed as a "suspect" in the police report) ... told the 911 operator the woman stated she would not leave the apartment until she spoke with an unnamed man (presumably Kaepernick).
Lockette said the unnamed man was NOT her boyfriend, but "someone she wants to sleep with."
Officials say they are still investigating the situation -- and have not released the results of the rape kit or any other tests administered on the woman.

V. Stiviano Rap Sheet with 6 Aliases Different Races
V. Stiviano -- who is currently under investigation for extortion -- is no stranger to the criminal justice system. She's been arrested for at least 4 crimes and has used 5 aliases, and she's a true chameleon, changing her race from crime to crime.
2002 -- Stiviano was arrested by LAPD for petty theft. The official documents -- obtained by TMZ -- show she was a 5'4" 128 lb Hispanic woman named Vanessa Maria Perez. She was convicted and placed on probation.
2004 -- Stiviano was arrested by Santa Monica PD for another petty theft and felony burglary. Her name was Vanessa Maria Perez (same as the first) but this time she's taller and thinner -- a 5'8" 115 lb Hispanic woman.
2010 -- Stiviano was arrested by LAPD for possession of a controlled substance -- a felony. This time she's Vanessa Maria Perez again, but she's black, weighing in at 5'7" and 125 lbs.
2012 -- Stiviano was busted by CHP for DUI. This time she was booked as Monica Gallegos, a 5'7" 110 lb black woman. We don't know the disposition.
In addition to Vanness Maria Perez and Monica Gallegos, court records show she also used the names Maria Valdez, Maria Vanessa Perez and Mariamonica Perez Gallegos. She's currently going by V. Stiviano.
Now it's clear why Donald Sterling was so confused about her race in the recording.
V. Stiviano Investigated for Allegedly Extorting Donald Sterling Over Recordings
V. Stiviano is under criminal investigation for allegedly extorting Donald Sterling by demanding money in return for keeping more audio recordings secret ... TMZ Sports has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... a senior investigator for the L.A. County D.A.'s Bureau of Investigation contacted Shelly Sterling Tuesday ... asking for an interview in connection with the extortion investigation.
Donald Sterling gave an interview last week ... telling a magazine, "I wish I had just paid her off."
TMZ Sports first reported ... Stiviano claims to have 100 plus hours of recordings of conversations between her and Sterling.
Stiviano's people told us a week ago ... Sterling called her after we posted the audio ... asking her, "How can we make this go away?" We have since learned it was NOT Sterling who initiated the call -- it was Stiviano.
And we've learned the investigation is also focusing on whether Stiviano illegally recorded Sterling ... recording private conversations without the consent of all parties is a crime in California.
We contacted Stiviano's law firm about the extortion investigation, and we're told, "We have no knowledge and therefore no comment."
