Michael Jackson - Michael Jackson To Be Accused Of Drinking Propofol

Lawyers acting for Dr. Conrad Murray will reportedly claim ''crazy'' Michael Jackson drank intravenous drugs as part of their defence for the physician, who is charged with the involuntary manslaughter of the singer.

Michael Jackson drank intravenous drugs, it is to be claimed in court.
The late singer's personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray faces trial next week over the involuntary manslaughter of the 'King of Pop' - who died of acute Propofol intoxication in June 2009 - and his legal team are reportedly planning to show how addicted the "crazy" star was to medications to help him sleep.
The claims come after an autopsy report showed the intravenously administered sedative was swilling in his stomach hours after his death.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Conrad Murray's team can't understand how Propofol got into the stomach.
"It does not make sense unless Michael drank it. To them that will show the world how much of an addict he was.
"Michael was acting crazy in his last few hours, demanding drugs to help him sleep. He was always playing with the bottles, who know what he did."
Murray will also claim Michael was able to inject himself to feed his addictions and had detailed knowledge of painkilling medications and intravenous treatments after decades of drug abuse.
The source added: "Dr. Murray is confident he can convince a jury Michael could have self-administered his drugs.
"It paints a bad picture of him as his doctor for feeding his addiction but Dr. Murray still insists he didn't dish out enough to kill him."
Meanwhile, a key witness in the case has gone missing.
Pharmacist Tim Lopez - who claimed he sent large amounts of a powerful anaesthetic to Murray's girlfriend shortly before the singer's death - has moved to Thailand without telling authorities, and his friends and family have reportedly refused to reveal his exact whereabouts.
Now, prosecutors want to use an earlier testimony he gave as part of their evidence, with Judge Michael Pastor expected to make a decision in the next few days.
Opening arguments in the trial are scheduled to begin on September 26.
If convicted, the medic faces up to four years in jail.

Britney Spears - Britney Spears Believes Kids Will Be Stars

Britney Spears thinks her sons will "definitely" be performers when they are older.
The 'Hold It Against Me' hitmaker takes her family on the road with her and says her boys, Sean Preston, six, and five-year-old Jayden James - her children with ex-husband Kevin Federline - already love to show off what they have learned from her dancers.
Britney - who is about to embark on the European leg of her 'Femme Fatale' tour - said: "When I'm on the road they come with me and they love being on the road. When I was younger I was always on the road and it's always exciting.
"They are in awe, they come home and copy the dancers and the dancers' moves and try to get on their heads and do spins and do all these things. They'll definitely, probably be, in the entertainment businesses."
The pop star - who is in a relationship with her former agent Jason Trawick - was placed under a conservatorship following her much-publicised meltdown in 2008 but she feels she is now in a "good place" in all aspects of her life.
Britney, 29, added in an interview on UK TV show 'Daybreak': "I'm in a very good place. I'm busy, I'm doing what I love, my family is great ... I'm finding my whole click with life

Paris Hilton Off The Hook In Vegas Cocaine Case!

Well, at least something is going in Paris Hilton's favor!
Although the socialite's reality series, The World According to Paris, was canceled due to poor ratings after one season, it appears that she's completely off the hook in her Vegas cocaine case - as the judge at her progress hearing was reportedly thrilled that she was only required to do 200 hours of community service, and instead chose to do 228!
She also paid $2,000 in fines, successfully completed her required substance abuse program, so the case is officially closed!

Vanessa Hudgens Gets Cozy with Disney Star Austin Butler

Last week, Vanessa Hudgens told PEOPLE she was single, but if recent photos are any indication of her relationship status, she's at least having fun playing the field.

Hudgens, 22 – who split from longtime Disney beau Zac Efron last year – has been spotted less frequently with recently rumored flame Josh Hutcherson. But on Saturday night she was photographed smooching actor Austin Butler, 20.

The two attended a 30th birthday party at Hollywood hotspot Lexington Social House on Saturday for pal Ashley Tisdale's sister, Jennifer.

"They were together but in a large group," says a source. "They were not doing anything to show that they were really together romantically but they were definitely hanging out and having fun."

Following the celebration, Hudgens and Butler headed to Bob's Big Boy, a local eatery open late.

Butler, who once played Jamie Lynn Spears's love interest on Zoey 101, recently starred in Sharpay's Fabulous Adventure alongside Tisdale, and also regularly guest stars on ABC Family's Switched at Birth.

Justin Bieber Is An Angel Investor

Who cares if someone is 17 years old when they have over 12 million followers on social media sites like Twitter?
That's pretty invaluable, especially when it comes to a start-up company!
Here's what the Biebs' manager said:

“For all of you young entrepreneurs out there watching, if you have a brilliant idea, Troy [Lady Gaga's manager] and I will combine the powers of Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber. Give us a large piece of equity.
“I realized that the power our artists have created for themselves on Facebook, on Twitter on YouTube are very, very valuable for launching these platforms. The great thing about technology that works, and that isn’t dependent on a Gaga or a Justin, but can be launched by a Gaga or a Justin.”

As a business move, this makes sense for both Bieber AND the start up. It's a symbiotic relationship that could be huge for both partners, as long as they're okay with Bieber taking a huge cut!

Ashton Kutcher - Two And A Half Men Garners Year's Biggest Audience

The season premiere of CBS's Two and a Half Men , in which Ashton Kutcher made his debut and Charlie Sheen's character was killed off, attracted nearly 28 million viewers Monday night -- the biggest audience for any scripted television show this year. Although it lost 31 percent of its lead-in, the series premiere of CBS's 2 Broke Girls wound up with 19.15 million viewers, beating out the season premiere of the always-strong Dancing with the Stars on ABC, which averaged 18.72 million viewers. Against such potent competition NBC and Fox each averaged slightly more than 5 million viewers. The poor showing must have been especially bitter for struggling NBC, which had been heavily promoting its 10 00 p.m. drama The Playboy Club , whose series debut managed to attract just 5 million viewers versus 13.6 million for ABC's Castle and 12 million for CBS's Hawaii Five-0 , in the same time period. Earlier, a two-hour edition of NBC's The Sing-Off averaged just 5.2 million viewers.

Criss Angel - Criss Angel Engaged

Magician Criss Angel is engaged.
The Las Vegas based illusionist is set to wed girlfriend Sandra Gonzalez, after he proposed while they were in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, on September 7.
A representative for the magician told People.com: "The couple are ecstatic!"
The pair first met on the set of Criss' TV series 'Mindfreak' four years ago, and he proposed with a five carat diamond and platinum ring – worth an estimated $300,000 - which he helped design with jeweller Leayne Kaye.
The proposal wouldn't, of course, have been complete without an element of surprise, and Criss - real name Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos - had secretly orchestrated a huge fireworks show in front of their private 11,000-square-foot luxury villa, triggered the moment Sandra accepted.
No date has yet been set for the marriage, which will be Criss' second, after he was previously wed to JoAnn Winkhart from 2002 to 2005. He has also dated linked a string of beauties including Playboy model Holly Madison, Pamela Anderson and Cameron Diaz.

The I Gotta Feeling hitmakers announced in July (11) they are planning to take a hiatus once they wrap up their current world tour, but West sparked speculation the break would be a more permanent one as he played a set at the Austin City Limits Music Festival last Friday (16Sep11).

Pamela Anderson - Pamela Anderson Wanted Jackson To Propose To Her

Pamela Anderson had a crush on Michael Jackson when she was growing up and dreamt of marrying him.

Pamela Anderson was "crushed" when Michael Jackson failed to propose to her.
The former 'Baywatch' babe had a huge crush on the 'Thriller' singer – who died in June 2009 – when she was growing up and was convinced he would pop the question when they met.
She said: "I was star-struck by Michael Jackson. I dreamt of marrying him when I was little and when he met me he didn't ask me – I was crushed"
Pamela – who has two sons, Brandon, 15, and 12-year-old Dylan, with ex-husband Tommy Lee – no longer has a celebrity crush and likes men who are confident within themselves and their career, especially if they're in the showbiz world.
In an interview with Britain's OK! magazine: "I'm attracted to people who are confident. They are who they are and don't bed for the media. They have added an element of caring to their careers. A handful of solid spirits in this industry."
The blonde beauty is single at the moment but doesn't think her success puts men off from asking her out.
She added: "I'm an assertive female. I know what I want. There's no question

Emma Watson - Emma Watson: I'm Just A Romantic

Emma Watson is a "hopeless romantic".
The 'Harry Potter' actress believes the way people conduct relationships has changed through the years but the 21-year-old beauty insists she is still a fan of traditional romance.
She said: "I've always been a hopeless romantic. I think, 'Why not?' It's nice. I think there's a perception that perhaps my generation doesn't believe in romance so much. I would be tempted to disagree and say we do believe in romance, seduction and gallantry, but that courtship and the game is played in a different way."
Emma – who is believed to be dating actor Johnny Simmons - also thinks her ideas of love have changed as she has gotten older, but she insists she is as romantic as ever.
She told HELLO! magazine: "I think as I'm growing up, my definition of love is becoming a lot broader.
"I think you can love loads of different people in different ways. It's definitely become more broadened and encompassing than when I was ten years old and I thought there was one Prince Charming. But I don't think it's any less romantic actually."

Victoria Beckham - Victoria Beckham's Girly Collection

Victoria Beckham says her latest clothing line channels her "inner girl".
The singer-turned-designer recently launched her second range - Victoria by Victoria Beckham, a more affordable dress collection - and says she was inspired by outfits she wanted to wear and show everyone she doesn't take herself too seriously.
Victoria - who recently gave birth to her first daughter, Harper Seven, a sister for brothers, Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, nine, and six-year-old Cruz - said: "It's definitely channelling my inner girl. I started this collection before I was pregnant and the doctors told me at first I was having a boy. So mainly I wanted to do dresses that I wanted, that weren't 'out there' - and at the same time show that, contrary to what most people think, I do have a sense of humour."
Victoria - who also has her more expensive line, Victoria Beckham - says the dresses took a long time coming because she wanted to make everything was just right.
She told Britain's Grazia magazine: "It has taken ages to get this together because it took a long time to find a factory that could deliver the right quality at the right price. Otherwise we'd have done it sooner."

Twilight star Robert Pattinson has secretly started work on a new album.
The actor, who provided soundtrack tunes for the first Twilight film, is recording as much material as possible before he has to hit the promotion trail again for the final films in the vampire franchise.
A source tells Us Weekly magazine, "The album Rob will make will be guitar-based and drums, very organic-sounding, nothing pop. Like stripped-down Ray LaMontagne meets Van Morrison.
"Music is his first love! He's tortured because he avoids it. When he's sitting around jamming in the studio, it's his favourite moment of life... It's an obsession for him."

Metallica - Metallica To Headline Indian Formula One Concert

Emma Watson - Emma Watson Likes The Natural Look

Emma Watson says her biggest beauty faux-pas is wearing too much make-up.
The 'Harry Potter' actress prefers the natural look and hates piling on cosmetics as she thinks beauty comes from within.
She said: "The funny thing about me is that I do have a lot of products - I've always loved make-up and its ability to transform you. But I don't actually wear a lot of it, so there is an irony that I own so much of it but wear so little. But I do love beauty products.
"But wearing too much make-up has been my biggest beauty faux-pas. I truly, truly believe that beauty is something that comes from within. You can only really look beautiful if you feel beautiful on the inside. It shows through your face, the way you move and the way you hold yourself."
The 21-year-old beauty also gave other tips on how to look good.
She told Britain's Hello! magazine: "Don't over-pluck your eyebrows and always take your make-up off before you got to bed."
