After being booted from the 'X Factor' judges panel at the end of her first season and splitting from her music executive boyfriend Jeff Bratton, Paula Abdul is looking to start this new phase in life with a clean slate. Her first step -- selling off her troublesome Los Angeles mansion for $1.9 million.

Since moving in, the singer-turned-TV-personality has been plagued by a series of misfortunes centered around the mega-home. Paula was sued by a woman who tripped and fell over a damaged pathway at the star's Sherman Oaks-area home in 2009, and shelled out $900,000 to settle the suit earlier this week. But that wasn't the last of Paula's bad house luck. One of her fans suffered a drug overdose just steps away from the property back in 2008.

Hopefully, whoever ends up purchasing the seemingly cursed house will have better luck with it than Paula. With five bedrooms, four bathroom, multiple fireplaces, a swimming pool, a grand double staircase and a fully-equipped media room, we think they'll be alright!
