James Harden Sued For Turning 30 Million Mansion Rental Into A Party House

TMZ reports that Harden paid $82,200 for the week, but in the rental contract Santo Pietro says there’s a clause forbidding him from having more than seven adults in the mansion at a time. That clause, he says, was violated at least twice, which constitutes his definition of a “party,” something for which he charges $150,000. Since Harden allegedly had more than 15 people at the house on two occasions, Santo Pietro wants $300,000 to cover those unpaid party fees. That’s just a start, since he’s also seeking an undisclosed amount of punitive damages for his alleged lying about his intention to throw a couple parties during the rental period. Possibly of greater interest than the lawsuit is the mansion itself, which is an incredible 14,500-square-foot estate located in Beverly Hills, with eight bedrooms, ten bathrooms, a gym, wine cellar, swimming pool, and much more. It’s estimated to be worth about $30 million and was once the home of Wheel of Fortune’s Vanna White, who was married to Santo Pietro and lived in the mansion from 1990 to 2002. You can take a look at the mansion in the video below from the Luxury Houses – American Homes YouTube channel and ask yourself if you could resist throwing a party here if you had it for yourself for a week:
