After two years of a legal circus of sorts, Conrad Murray, the personal physician of Michael Jackson, was sentenced to the maximum four years in an L.A. County jail.

Michael Jackson’s Death Bed Up For Auction

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor declared Murray an unfit candidate for probation. He pronounced the sentence for involuntary manslaughter in the 2009 death of Jackson, citing Murray’s involvement a “cycle of horrible medicine.”

“He has absolutely no sense of remorse,” the judge said. “[Murray] is and remains dangerous. … I think Dr. Murray is so reckless that I believe he is a danger to the community.”

Conrad Murray Guilty in Michael Jackson Death Case

Eventually, Pastor will order Murray to pay restitution to Jackson’s estate and children, but the amount won’t be determined until a later date. The judge also order Murray to pay $800 in restitution to the court, a $30 court security fee, and a $40 criminal conviction assessment.

The California Department of Corrections will decide whether Murray will spend his time in a 23-hour lockdown cell or in the general jail population with other inmates.

Adios, Murray! Nice knowin’ ya.

TMZ has obtained the court papers, which were filed in October, showing that the singer is hoping to rid herself of about $768,643 in debt to creditors.

T-Boz claims she earns $11,700 a month and describes her monthly expenses as only totaling $8,821. She only earns $1,200 a month in royalties from the four platinum-selling albums during her time with TLC.

She also claims she’s owed $250,00 in child support payments.

Dang, girl.

Justin took the DNA test under “very controlled circumstances” at a lab in New Jersey on Friday. The “Baby” singer wants to make sure it’s impossible for Mariah or her lawyers to contest the chain of custody.

Now it’s up to Mariah to show up to provide a DNA sample from her son Tristyn. Justin is not willing to settle or even discuss settlement with Mariah’s legal team. And why would he? Mariah is obviously a fame-seeker and a liar.

Justin Bieber’s alleged baby mama, Mariah Yeater, decided to discretely dismiss the paternity lawsuit, in which she demanded the “Baby” singer to take a paternity test to prove he was the father of her three month-old baby boy, Tristyn.

Mariah’s lawyers, Lance Rogers and Matt Pare, also decided to quickly abandon the sinking ship when Justin agreed to take a DNA test as soon as he returned to the USA since he is currently promoting his holiday album “Under The Mistletoe” all over Europe.

Despite the dismissal of the lawsuit, Justin’s team is still determined to sue Mariah and her legal team for making bogus claims in an attempt to set some sort of example for future fame-seekers and gold-diggers to think twice before making false accusations.

The singer’s publicist, Matthew Hiltzik, told TMZ, “We intend to still hold them accountable.”

Justin should not backtrack on this. Mariah and her lawyers need to be held responsible for trying to denigrate the young teen idol’s image and his reputation. Go Justin!

After deliberating for two days, a jury convicted Conrad Murray of involuntary manslaughter in the drug overdose death of Michael Jackson.

Dr. Conrad Murray Says Michael Jackson Killed Himself

Justin Bieber’s had enough! While Mariah Yeater’s lawyers, Lance Rogers and Matthew Pare, were busy declaring they had evidence on TV, the 17 year-old decided to take to take a DNA test to prove he is not baby Tristyn’s daddy, and then he is going to sue the baby mama.

The “Baby” singer’s lawyer, Howard Weitzman, has apparently already even found a lab to do the paternity test as soon as the “Baby singer”, who is currently promoting his new Christmas album (“Under The Mistletoe”) in Europe, returns to the states.

Justin and his team are not going to fool around. They want to take Mariah to court as soon as they prove she is a liar because they want to send a loud message to other people who even dare to think about coming up with similar scams in the future. Bogus and hurtful accusations against a celebrity won’t go unpunished. Go Justin!

According to TMZ, Mariah’s lawyers appeared to be very “nervous” when JBieber’s lawyer actually called to set up the DNA test in two weeks. That would explain why they suddenly went radio silent on Friday.

“The Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Ruins” star, Tonya Cooley, accused some of her male co-stars of sexually abuse in a new lawsuit against MTV, Bunim/Murray Productions, and male cast members, Kenneth Santucci and Evan Starkman.

“Real World” Star Kevin Dunn Arrested For DUI (Mugshot)

Tonya claims the production offered them large quantities of alcohol and encouraged them to mistreat the female cast members. When she spoke up against certain individuals’ misconduct, the producers allegedly told her to “just deal with it”.

“[MTV and producers] created an environment in which degrading and harassing behavior toward the female contestants was openly tolerated and even encouraged,” the complaint states.

The reality star recounts one incident in particular when she got drunk and passed out to wake up with several lacerations and abrasions in her genital area (in May 2009). According to the lawsuit, Kenneth and Evan took some other contestant’s toothbrush and raped her with it while the camera continued shooting.

Tonya also revealed the females were stripped off their bathing suits and male cast members were encouraged to inappropriately touch their bodies, including in more intimate areas.

Tonya is suing for sexual harassment, assault, sexual battery, negligence, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and, finally, wrongful termination since she was kicked off the show for slapping another cast member.

A rep for Bunim/Murray, the production company, told TMZ they actually did “a thorough investigation” into the allegations — but “found Tonya Cooley’s claims to be completely baseless.”

Melissa Joan Hart‘s former manager has filed a lawsuit against her claiming that the actress is refusing to pay him commissions for her current ABC Family show Melissa & Joey.

Melissa Joan Hart Only Sees Her Kids Bi-Weekly

Kiernan Maguire, who began working for Hart in 2006, filed a complaint with the Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday. Maguire says he was fired after Hart got her newest gig on ABC Family.

“This case is one more incident of an actress who seeks to take advantage of, mistreat and thumb her nose at those in her employ — in this instance the person who rescued her career as it was plummeting towards obscurity,” the lawsuit states. “Melissa Joan Hart has no heart.”

YIKES!

A rep for Hart released a statement, saying:

“Melissa worked with Kieran for a finite period of time, and he was paid in full for his services. During that time, Melissa never reviewed nor signed a management contract with him; nor did Kieran ever present her with one.  No agreement was ever reached between the two of them. Ultimately, Melissa and several of her partners had issues with the way Kieran did business, and Melissa terminated her relationship with him several months ago. There is no basis whatsoever for the material allegations in his lawsuit, which are untrue and defamatory.”

Come on, Hart! Instead of having a “rep” release a statement for you, how about you release one yourself.

A former production coordinator for MTV’s hit reality show The Hills has filed a lawsuit against the network.

Eliza Sproul reports a “dangerous” trip to Costa Rica with the cast that was full of drug use and sexual harassment in the lawsuit.

‘The Hills’ Girls Never Wore Anything Twice

Sproul claims that when the network planned to take the crew to Costa Rica, MTV failed to secure a work visa for all involved. Instead, the crew got tourist visas and had to rely on local help, such as a guy by the name of Andres, who is said to have made sexual advances and even pressured Sproul to go into the forrest and smoke marijuana with him.

The work conditions were less than desirable. Sproul worked long hours with no rest or meal breaks, and when she did get to sleep, she had to in the office. Salomon, another employee, reportedly showed off body parts in a “distressing” manner, with more sexual activity and drugs present, according to Sproul.

After enduring the conditions, Sproul says she ”essentially broke down” and had to consult a local physician.

MTV has yet to comment. Go figure.

Former Jersey Shore star Angelina Pivarnick is headed to court this week over an alleged assault that occurred in a Staten Island Hot Topic last year.

Oh my gosh, that has to be one of the greatest sentences ever written.

According to sources, Pivarnick is suing one, Kelsey Balzafiore, for attacking her and a friend inside a local shopping center.  Oh yeah, and she’s suing Hot Topic for having terrible security.

I’m sorry Angelia, but what kind of “security” did you expect from a zit-faced, sixteen-year-old kid wearing a dog collar?  You’re in a mall, sweetheart; bring a tazer and some Mace if you really need some protection.

As much as it pains me to say this, I’m rooting for Hot Topic on this one.

This may be the first, last and only time I’ll ever say this, so listen up people.  Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino is right!   Excuse me while I got wash my mouth out with soap.

Last month, Abercrombie & Fitch very publicly announced that they would pay Sitch and the rest of the Jersey Shore cast a large sum to stop donning their duds on national television, but according to a recent cease and desist letter penned by Sorrentino’s legal team, the payoff never came.

And now he’s pissed.  Look out!  He might slam his head into a wall… again.

According to reports, Mike’s all done playing nice and has requested that any t-shirts making reference to “The Situation” be pulled from A&F shelves.  What’s more, he wants all the profits made from the shirts, claiming that his company, MPS Productions owns the rights to all items bearing his name.

Hey, he may be a total slimeball, but the guy’s got a point.  Plus, Abercrombie & Fitch is terrible.  Maybe this will knock them and their shirtless models down a peg or two.

Real Housewives of Orange County star Gretchen Rossi did a good job of staying out of the spotlight for a little while, but unfortunately, (or fortunately if you’re a celeb gossip hound) the trouble-making blonde bombshell is back at her old tricks again.

Apparently Rossi and he ex-boyfriend Jay Photoglou, have been wrapped up in a lawsuit for some time now and when the RHOOC star failed to appear in court Thursday, the judge issued a bench warrant for her arrest and set bail for $2,500.

According to reports, the judge’s decision was considered fairly lenient. He continued the warrant until September 15th meaning, Little Miss Perfect has until then to get her act together.

If I were this judge, I’d throw this whole ridiculous case out of my courtroom.  Photoglou and Rossi are each suing each other for libel, defamation and slander – or as it’s called in the real world, “trashing your ex after a break up”.  Get over yourselves!
