Michael Jackson doctor outed for death day affairs with strippers?

Celebrity Scandal!

Michael Jackson doctor outed for death day affairs with strippers?

[Apr. 15 — Update on Dr. Conrad Murray Trial for the celebrity death of Michael Jackson]

Appalling is the word that comes to mind to describe this sad celebrity scandal. Dr. Conrad Murray, once the personal physician of green celebrity superstar Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, may have been involved with at least three different women the day the superstar and green celebrity rocker died. Police say records show that Dr. Murray was on the phone with a cocktail waitress from Houston, where Dr. Murray keeps his offices, just minutes before Michael Jackson died, according to TMZ . Murray had met Sade Anding in Houston where she was working in a cocktail lounge at the time, and prosecutors believe she was a girlfriend of Murray’s, among several strippers.

From TMZ:

Prosecutors say the call proves Murray was paying attention to his girlfriend, and not MJ, during the critical period before Michael’s death. And, prosecutors want to admit a $500 check that Murray wrote to Anding “after the two came back from a social outing.”

What the payment may have entailed is left to speculation. But prosecutors say Dr. Conrad Murray had conversations with two other women earlier on the day Michael Jackson died, June 25, 2009. Prosecutors also want to admit a text message from a stripper at Spearmint Rhino Gentleman’s Club in Las Vegas. They say text messages between the stripper, Michelle Bella, and Dr. Conrad Murray took place about 8:30 a.m. on the day Michael Jackson was reported dead. Another woman, Bridgette Morgan, says she called Dr. Murray the same day to ask about a plane ticket Dr. Murray reportedly was purchasing for her to fly her out to Jackson’s home.

Another stripper claimed she was working at Sam’s Hof Brau the night before the green celebrity died, and she said Dr. Conrad Murray was there late that evening, according to another report by TMZ. She reported she had seen Michael Jackson himself at the establishment one night after it had closed — “in a deep sleep,” says TMZ — in the weeks before Jackson died, and she also said that Dr. Murray had invited her to Jackson’s home in Holmby Hills.

Celebrity Teens: Demi Lovato mental illness confessions big news?

Celebrity Teens!

Demi Lovato speaks out about her mental illness?

[Apr. 15]

Disney Princess Demi Lovato recently was released from rehab over alleged drug and alcohol issues, after striking out at one of her dancers for confessing the teen starlet’s partying to her parents. Then she confessed to Seventeen magazine about an eating disorder. Just this Thursday, the singer and actress tweeted encouragement to Catherine Zeta-Jones, who also has gone into treatment for bipolar disorder, and she had only positive words for the actress and wife of Michael Douglas. All of these events for the celebrity teen made major media headline news. That is pretty exciting for an up and coming starlet, pop music star, and television personality — considering the very real fact most adults in America have never heard of her.

“I don’t know Catherine Zeta-Jones personally but what she has decided to do it SO brave.. And SO difficult but worth it… I’m proud of her,” the Disney starlet said on Twitter. News flash.

And speaking of Twitter, don’t let Demi Lovato know that you text while driving. On Wednesday, she tweeted a twitpic of a man in a car next to her, obviously looking down toward the steering column instead of at the road ahead of him where he should have been looking. Huge entertainment journal response.

Demi was not impressed. “FYI – this is how dumb you look when you are texting while driving…. Hahaha #donttextndrive,” reports Earsucker.com, and she added, “P.s. I was NOT driving when I took this! :p” Good for you! We don’t need any more irresponsible drivers on the roads. Talk show fodder.

[And the Disney princess might just punch you like she punched her dancer when she had her breakdown. Kidding! She’s better now. Feature article.]

James Durbin teaching Heavy Metal Concert 101 on American Idol 2011?

[Apr. 13]

American Idol, the television series, has a massive following in the United States and viewers are from a broad range demographic. James Durbin is teaching everyone Heavy Metal Concert 101 and rock music fan or not, it sure is hard not to like him. While only a small number of people watching the show have probably every been to a real heavy metal rock concert, as former Gen X headbanger whose life partner is a Baby Boomer who has seen nearly every hit band and major rock star of note since the 1960s one thing was clear from our view-point. Durbin rocks the house not because of his raw talent but because he has studied his rock music history. That’s our theory — the kid with the faux hawk is actually *gasp* an ACADEMIC.

Confused? Don’t be.

Haley Reinhart best darn Karaoke lounge singer on American Idol 2011?

Haley Reinhart best dang Karaoke lounge singer on American Idol 2011?

[Apr. 13]

That Haley Reinhart… she is the breakout not-a-hit on American Idol 2011. While she loves to belt out a note, the chances are that she will be booted off the American Idol competition long before a record deal can even be seriously talked about. Judge Randy Jackson finally said what so many Americans were already thinking about Haley’s April 13th appearance — her blondie tune, while fun and lively, was amateur level at best and simply not up to par compared to the show’s other talents this season.

While everyone hopes American Idol hosts will discover a new Janis Joplin and early comparisons were made between Haley Reinhart and the deceased rock and roll legend, her voice and personality — while trying her best — bless her heart, just ain’t making it.

However, since Pia Toscano was sent home by call in voters last week, it seems no one on American Idol is safe this season.

The April 13th show showed all the competitors taking risks of one sort or another — except for Hailey Reinhart (whose only risk was her inability to bring it).

Stephen Tyler agreed with Randy Jackson. Jennifer Lopez agreed with Randy Jackson. Everyone who is a fan of real music agreed with Randy Jackson. Bottom line, when it comes to Haley Reinhart, although we like her personally and think she is probably a nice girl, she simply has got to go.

American Idol 2011: A star is born named Scotty McCreery say judges and fans?

American Idol 2011!

A star is born named Scotty McCreery say judges?

[Apr. 13]

American Idol judge Randy Jackson says [win or lose] a star in born in young country music singer Scotty McCreery and the rest of the celebrity judges agree. Was his claim surprising? Not at all if you stop for a moment and realize that Scotty — who you can vote for by dialing 1-866-IDOLS-4 — is only seventeen.

Scotty rubbed the crowd just the right way all season long with his deep country crooner voice. The celebrity teen is not only darling, he really knows how to sing. Couple his artistic ability with an award winning Mr. Nice guy personality, let’s hope Scotty does not finish last.

Judges Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler don’t think he will — but after last week’s early loss of singer Pia Toscano there is no telling how the American phone in voting will go.

Want to follow Scotty McCreery on Twitter? You can.

Prior to the April 13th live performance, Scotty himself tweeted the following status updates through social media:

* @SMcCreeryAI10: Yall ready? 30 minutes till showtime. Its gonna be another good show. Everybody killed it during dress rehearsal! about an hour ago

Celebrity Couples: DWTS Mark Ballas and American Idol Pia Toscano dating?

Celebrity Couples!

DWTS Mark Ballas and American Idol Pia Toscano hooking up thanks to wrestler Chris Jericho?

[Apr. 10]

Mark Ballas and partner Disney starlet Chelsea Kane may have fired it up on the Dancing with the Stars dance floor, with their unmistakable chemistry both in front of the judges and behind the scenes, but American Idol hopeful Pia Toscano had her eyes on Ballas, since they both worked at the CBS Television Lot where the two shows are filmed.

But Pia needed an introduction, says TMZ. How does a starlet hopeful like Pia Toscano meet with an already famous dancer like Mark Ballas? Through the six degrees of Kevin Bacon — er, separation. Except this time it was only three degrees of separation and no Kevin Bacon (except maybe a little Animal House and Footloose, wink wink). It turns out Pia had a friend who was friends with wrestler Chris Jericho, and of course Chris Jericho also is performing on Dancing with the Stars with Mark Ballas. Voila! Introduction accomplished.

Chris Jericho from Dancing with the Stars must be quite the matchmaker, becaus TMZ says Mark Ballas was receptive and that he and Pia Toscano reportedly had a great time and are looking to have another rendezvous again soon. Mark Ballas even skipped out on a music video shoot for their big night together last Friday.

In spite of Pia Toscano being sent home early in a terrible upset of votes on American Idol, she may have won big anyway, through Chris Jericho, with her big date with Mark Ballas. Kudos to Pia, who many (especially the judges) feel she should not have been voted off the show.

And Mark Ballas is continuing to shine as well, both on stage and behind the scenes. He and Chelsea Kane (Team Kanenball, as Ballas calls the pair) have made it through another week of Dancing with the Stars, and he’s about to release his debut solo album, HurtLoveBox, on April 12, according to USA Today. He wrote the blog for USA Today before he hooked up with Pia Toscano, because in it he says he still planned to shoot a video the next day, but it seems all is working out well.
