Ricki Lake Sued For House Fire

Ricki Lake sued for supposedly making a large mistake with a flammable heating oil and making a fire that burned down the Malibu beach house she was renting back in 2010. Based on the lawsuit filed by the owner of the home, Ricki was refilling a portable space heater when she spilled the oil on the hot heating coils then the oil burst into flames. The fire immediately ripped through the entire property.

In the lawsuit, filed Monday in L.A. County Superior Court, the owner, Hovsep Kousouyan, claims Lake spoke with emergency personnel who responded to the fire -- and she admitted the whole thing was her fault.

Kousouyan says his beach house was completely destroyed in the blaze -- and wants Lake to pay for all of the damages, which could be in the millions.
