Porn Career Might Not Be Enough to Save Octomom's House: Auction Remains Pending
Nadya Suleman, a.k.a. Octomom, has been hit with financial trouble after financial trouble, and for over a month now, her house is supposedly on the auction block.
An auction slated for today has been postponed until next week, confirms City News Service.
Suleman has been doing everything she can to avoid losing her home. She forestalled the sale once by declaring bankruptcy, but her filing was tossed out after she failed to turn in some necessary paperwork. She even raised money by rubbing one out for the cameras in a masturbation video for an online adult entertainment company.
Lawyers thought today would be the day that she gets booted for good--they'll have to hold that thought another week. Suleman is behind 11 months on the $3,000 monthly payments for her 4-bedroom, 3-bath home in La Habra, and the guy who owns the house and pays the mortgage, Amer Haddadin, is claiming that she's ruined his credit.

If all goes according to plan, the house will now be auctioned in front of Orange City Hall next week.
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
