Two men have been arrested for an apparent Joss Stone murder plot, reports CTV.

The two were found near the home of R&B singer Joss Stone in Cullompton, southwest England, on suspicion of conspiracy to rob and murder.

Police officials say the men were aged 30 and 33, and were arrested Tuesday after residents reported a suspicious-looking vehicle.

The men “had in their possession information relating to an individual in the Cullompton area and items which lead us to suspect that they may have intended to commit a criminal offense,” says Detective Inspector Steve Parker.

Stone’s publicist says she was apparently aware of the arrests and is being updated by the police. Police did not confirm that Stone was at home when the incident occurred.

The Sun newspaper claims, although not confirmed by officials, that the men had swords, rope, a body bag, and maps and aerial photos of Stone’s property.

The men are currently in custody. This is a scary story, especially if what the men had is true – a body bag? aerial photos? That’s a whole other level of stalking. Glad she’s okay.

Candy Spelling, mother to actress Tori Spelling, has sold her expensive home to a 22-year-old, reports E Online.

The home, which is the most expensive home on the U.S. market, was put for sale two years ago by Spelling for $150 million. The 4.7 acre Holmby Hills home belonged to her and late husband, Aaron Spelling, the producer of 90210.

Now, the home is apparently being sold to a 22-year-old heiress of a British billionaire. Yes, she’s 22, and yes, that’s ridiculous.

Formula One heiress Petra Ecclestone, the daughter of billionaire racing boss Bernie Ecclestone, is up for the pad – and it’s going to cost her. The place has its own gift-wrapping room, for heavens sake.

As for Spelling, she has downsized to a $35 million penthouse in Century City. Rough life.

Now is your chance to own a piece of Hollywood real estate history (well not really). Katy Perry and Russell Brand have put their Los Feliz home on the market. They are asking $3.4 Million.

Gawker reports rumors are circulating the couple are relocating to Ben Stiller’s old house. The property they’re selling is 4,700 square feet and has almost 20 sets of French doors.

For $3.4 Million, its a bargain, assuming you like Katy Perry.

Charlie Sheen Takes Home Urine Test

Crazy Charlie Sheen is totally not crazy, he swears!

The Two and a Half Men star, in a bid to restore his name and stun the nonbelievers, has produced the results of an at-home drug test….and the results are negative!

That’s right, Charlie Sheen was apparently COMPLETELY SOBER during his controversial self-appointed “press tour” in which he smack talked his boss Chuck Lorre, the writers of his show, and inexplicably founding father Thomas Jefferson.

Staffers at Radar Online administered the urine test and confirmed negative results across the board.

Sheen has been challenged to take a more extensive blood test by some, a task that he has embraced and undertaken. The results aren’t out yet, but it seems unlikely that it’ll come back positive as the first check test is 99% effective.

So that was pure, untainted Sheen? That’s almost worse than discovering he was high! Yikes. At the very least the man needs an ego adjustment BIG TIME.

Hollywood landmark or tragic scene?

The house is being held in a blind trust, and Sharon Murphy is named as the lone trustee with full discretion over the home. In a handwritten note left in her manager’s safe, Brittany Murphy left her entire estate to her mom.

Murphy’s will specifically exlcudes her husband, Simon Monjack. According to TMZ, the will reads, “”I am married to Simon Monjack who I have intentionally left out of this will.”

After selling the Hollywood mansion, both Sharon Murphy and Monjack plan on relocating to New York.

Mischa Barton, former star of the TV show “The O.C.” was removed from her L.A. home by the Los Angeles Police Department on Wednesday.

LAPD spokesperson Richard French told MTV News on Thursday (July 16): “It was apparently yesterday a little after 3 in the afternoon, and one of the patrol units in West L.A. division responded to her home for a medical issue.”

Craig Schneider, the actresses rep told People in a statement, “Police were involved due to Ms. Barton’s celebrity status, to safely transfer her to medical treatment as per doctor’s orders,” Schneider said, adding that the actress is now “OK and resting.”

These “medical issues” are preventing Barton from attending the premiere for her latest film, “Homecoming.” Producer Austin Stark said to People, “There were some medical problems. She’s not able to travel, as far as I know.”

“Homecoming” director Morgan J. Freeman also responded to the news that the 23-year-old actress won’t be attending the movie’s premiere, through a statement issued to Access Hollywood. “I along with everyone on the ‘Homecoming’ team are saddened to hear that Mischa Barton will not be able to attend the film’s premiere tonight in New York,” he said. “Her performance in ‘Homecoming’ is fantastic, and she will be missed at our premiere.”
