Chris Brown has branded the District Attorney in his court case a racist.
The R&B star took to Twitter last night after he was sentenced to 1,000 extra hours of community service earlier this month for submitting bogus reports for the 1,440 hours he was originally ordered to complete for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009. "N***a done 6 months community service wit police and the DA racist ass crying to the judge that I didn't do it. F**k the SYSTEM! (sic)" Chris raged on the social networking site.
The 24-year-old hot-head went on to slam the American justice system for wasting so much time on his case when there are so many more pressing matters to solve: "How about y'all take care of all the homeless kids and families on skid row. Promote helping people that are really f***ed up in your city!"
Chris concluded, "Family first! The LAW ... last (sic)," before referring to his latest addition to his graffiti-sprayed car collection, quipping, "I paint pics of monsters because its a reflection of u bitcha*s n***as and this bitchass system! (sic)"

Kim Kardashian Officially Divorced from Kris Humphries

Kim Kardashian's divorce from Kris Humphries has been finalized.
The reality TV star, who is set to give birth to a baby girl with her rapper boyfriend of more than one year, Kanye West, next month, reached a settlement with the 28-year-old basketball player in April to avoid a trial, but their divorce only became official when the judgement was entered in Los Angeles Superior Court on Monday night. According to People.com, the terms of the divorce will not be revealed, but the former couple did have a prenuptial agreement.
Kim filed for divorce from Kris on October 31, 2011 after just 72 days of marriage. Their split dragged on for more than a year and a half because Kris originally wanted an annulment, on the grounds of "fraud."
Friends close to the Brooklyn Nets previously revealed he decided not to go to trial because he didn't want his basketball career to suffer. "Kris didn't want the team impacted by his personal life. If the Nets advanced in the playoffs, the trial would have taken place during the games and basketball comes first for Kris. He also knew that he didn't have a chance in hell of proving that Kim defrauded him. In the end, his lawyers were able to finally make him see that not only would he be missing out on the playoffs with the Nets, but would likely be ordered to pay Kim's legal fees. Kris then chose to settle," an insider said.

Amanda Bynes has been released from police custody.
The She's The Man star appeared in court in New York City on Friday morning, where she was formally charged with attempted evidence tampering, reckless endangerment and marijuana possession. The troubled starlet was booked for drug possession on Thursday evening when police visited her apartment after receiving a report of a disorderly person.
During the hearing, the 27-year-old actress denied throwing a bong out the window in front of arresting officers, and also accused them of "roughing her up." She claimed she was "improperly arrested" because the object she threw was "just a vase," according to gossip website TMZ.com. An arresting officer is quoted as saying in the criminal complaint, "I observed [Amanda] grab said bong, run to the westbound-facing window, and throw it out the window where numerous pedestrians were walking on the 8 Avenue and West 47 Street sidewalks below."
The judge waived bail but warned the actress that an arrest warrant would be issued if she misses her court date in July.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Holly Madison's fiance is reportedly facing more than 13 years in prison. The former The Girls Next Door star's partner Pasquale Rotella, who is the father of her two-month-old baby girl Rainbow Aurora, attended a pre-trial hearing in Los Angeles on Monday for a number of serious charges including bribery, embezzlement, conspiracy and conflict of interest.
According to gossip website RadarOnline.com the LA County District Attorney alleges that the owner of Insomniac events used more than $2.5 million in funds from the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum to pay off city officials so he could host raves in the venue.
Pasquale - who was indicted with five other males - posted a $1.8 million bail and is due back in court on July 29. If convicted the father-of-one, who is due to marry Holly, 33, on August 14, could serve almost 14 years behind bars. But his lawyer Gary Jay Kaufman previously said he is confident that his client will be found innocent, calling the charges "politically motivated and publicity driven."

Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries have settled their divorce case. Basketball player Kris - whose marriage to the reality TV star ended after just 72 days in 2011 - dropped his demands for an annulment due to fraud after being urged to settle by the judge and the couple will be officially divorced by June 19.
Kim appeared in court in Los Angeles on Friday, where she responded yes when asked if irreconcilable differences led to the breakdown of the marriage. "Yes, it's done. [The court] realized there was no fraud and the judge urged Kris to settle. Finally it's over!" a source told Us Weekly.
While Kris missed a court appearance last week and was not present on Friday, the judge has ruled his failure to appear in court "irrelevant" now that the case is settled and he won't have to face any fines.
It was recently claimed Kim, 32, - who is pregnant with her first child with her 35-year-old boyfriend Kanye West - was "furious" with Kris for dragging out their divorce and was worn out by their ongoing battle.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Prince, Diana Ross and Spike Lee are among the witnesses who could be called in the Michael Jackson wrongful death trial.
The late star's mother Katherine Jackson has accused promoters AEG Live of being negligent in ignoring health concerns over her son and hiring Dr. Conrad Murray - the physician who was convicted of the involuntary manslaughter of the star following his passing in 2009 - and it has now been revealed who could take to the stand in the case. As well as the two singers and the director, Michael's ex-wife Lisa Marie Presley, his three children Prince, 16, Paris, 14, and Blanket, nine, producer Quincy Jones, choreographer Kenny Ortega and several of the "Thriller" hitmaker's siblings could be called to give evidence, ET Online reports.
However, despite his inclusion on the list, insiders predict Prince is unlikely to testify. Music blogger Dr. Funkenberry explained to the New York Post newspaper, "Prince is so far down on the witness list, he will more than likely never get called."

Jackson Kids Paternity Request
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Child Stars, Legal Issues,
Michael Jackson's family has demanded that paternity evidence relating to his children be dropped from a lawsuit.
The late singer's mother Katherine Jackson - who acts as a co-legal guardian for his children Prince Michael, 17, Paris, 15 and Blanket, 10, - has filed a motion asking the judge presiding over the court case to exclude any evidence relating to their paternity.
According to legal documents, obtained by gossip website TMZ.com, Katherine claims that the jury does not need to know anything about her grandchildren's biological parentage. Budding actor and TV presenter Prince Michael and his sister Paris are believed to be the children of their father's ex-wife Debbie Rowe, while Blanket is said to have been born via a surrogate mother.
The family is suing AEG Live - who sponsored Michael's This Is It tour - for the alleged negligent hiring and supervision of Dr. Conrad Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for his role in Michael's death.
