The prosecutor in Dr. Conrad Murray’s manslaughter case believes the defense will place the blame on Michael Jackson.

Murray is charged with killing the Prince of Pop by administering a fatal dose of Propofol.

“I do think it's clear the defense is operating under the theory that the victim, Michael Jackson, killed himself,” said Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney David Walgren.

According to TMZ, Murray says Jackson administered the drug to himself while the doctor was momentarily out of the room.

Betty Ford Staffer Accuses Lindsay Lohan of Assault

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Rumors,

Lindsay LohanDawn Holland, a chemical dependency technician at the Betty Ford Clinic, has accused one of the patients of assault. Because the accused is Lindsay Lohan, TMZ has been digging to find every piece of information they can.

Currently, Holland is claiming that she’s badly hurt, that Lindsay had been drinking when they had the altercation and she’s been forced to file for workers’ compensation as a result.

Holland has since been let go from her position at the clinic for speaking to TMZ.

The alleged assault occurred on December 12 around 1:00 in the morning, when Linds and two roommates arrived at the facility -- after curfew -- following an evening out.

When security caught them trying to jump a wall on the property, Holland was summoned to do a breath test on the three women. She says Lohan refused to take the test and shoved Holland. Moments later, during a 911 call, Holland says Lindsay forcibly took the phone from her hand to cause a severe sprain.

Holland has filed a police report.

Miley Cyrus and the Cover-Up That Didn’t Work

Weeks before the video of Miley Cyrus smoking out of a bong was leaked onto the Internet, Miley’s people attempted to cover up the incident.

TMZ is reporting that the Cyrus camp tried to do damage control by swapping out MacBooks among college kids who were present at the time.

An unknown man, assumed to be working for Miley Cyrus, visited San Luis Obispo to exchange computers with at least two separate students, but clearly the Cyrus rep didn’t manage to snatch up all the copies of the video. (These things have a way of getting around.)

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Legal Issues, Rumors,

Britney Spears, Jason TrawickUPDATE: You can read Britney's Twitter response here.

Radar Online is offering exclusive audio of what is purportedly a conversation between pop princess Britney Spears and her husband for one day Jason Alexander (not the Seinfeld actor; different guy).

In it, “Britney” says that current boyfriend has been beating her. In one memorable moment, the woman on the tape says her father has a “shotgun … and he’s just waiting to use it.”

Waiting for what? In any event, Alexander talked about this and much more with Star magazine, saying that Britney’s life has “turned into a nightmare."

But the Spears camp says no way. They are categorically denying the audio clip, telling TMZ it is “so obviously fake as to be laughable.”

“Suffice it to say, Jason Trawick has never laid a hand on Britney [Spears],” they said in a prepared statement.

Mel Gibson Didn’t Offer Enough Money for Oksana Tapes

Oksana GrigorievaOksana Grigorieva played tapes of Mel Gibson’s rants to her lawyers because his attorneys didn’t offer her enough money.

Emails have been released in which the Russian singer - who recorded telephone conversations in which Mel makes threats to her and tells her she was a “****” - reveals their 11-month-old daughter Lucia was offered a “generous gift” but there was “nothing” in it for her.

“As far as the tapes go, I only played one to my lawyer, because on March 15 Michelle proposed on ur behalf not a very generous gift for our daughter and there was nothing for me. My lowers also told me that Tom Hansen [one of Mel’s lawyers] said I wouldn get a penny. (sic),” Oksana wrote in one email obtained by gossip website TMZ.

However, her lawyer Daniel Horowitz has revealed she was reluctant to play the tapes to him, because she didn’t want to “hurt” the star: “Oksana was legally entitled to play all of the tapes for her lawyers and most clients would have done so.  She was being supremely careful of Mel’s privacy because she knew that even lawyers in Hollywood might lose track of the tapes and she didn’t want to hurt him.”

Lindsay Lohan Misdiagnosed, Demanding Apology From Courts

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Legal Issues, Rants, Rumors,

Lindsay LohanDespite being on rehab lock-down, is making quite the fuss, reportedly wanting an apology from the Californian courts.

The actress is said to be “fuming” after medical assessments at the UCLA Medical Center - where she is currently undergoing a 90-day stint as part of her sentence for breaching probation - found she may have been misdiagnosed with attention deficit disorder (ADD) and is not suffering from bipolar disorder or addicted to drugs as was previously claimed.

Instead, medics believe it is possible her prescription for Adderall, which treats ADD, led to her erratic behavior, meaning the 24-year-old star feels her sentence was unfair. “Lindsay is fuming - she is really upset that the courts put her through all this,” said a source.

Although the insider says Lindsay’s representatives are “exploring their options,” it is not expected she will be able to gain legal action against the perceived damage to her public image. Criminal Defence Attorney Steve Cron explained to Fox 411’s Pop Tarts, “No judge or prosecutor could be sued under these circumstances, they have absolute immunity. Judge Revel formulated her opinion of Lindsay based on the information she had at the time from another program. The judge could still be dissatisfied with the report from UCLA and seek independent opinions or insist Lindsay be enrolled in other programs.”

Mel Gibson in Alcohol-Free Car Crash

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies,

Mel Gibson was involved in a car crash last night.

Gibson was driving his 2008 Maserati on the Malibu Canyon Road in California at around 8:35pm when the accident occurred, but escaped unharmed. According to TMZ, a report by the California Highway Patrol read, “For unknown reasons, Mr. Gibson steered his car to the right and struck the rock hillside. He stopped his car at the scene and was contacted by officers from the West Valley CHP Area.”

Officer Leland Tang said Mel was alone in the car and no drugs or alcohol were involved, but admitted the actor was baffled as to what had gone on: “Gibson told officers in the field he did not know how the car drifted out of the lane and into the hillside. It was totally an unintentional act.”

Although Mel denied being on the phone at the time of the accident, he would not confirm whether or not he had fallen asleep behind the wheel. Mel cooperated with officers and was given a lift home by a friend after his vehicle was towed away.
