When "Jon & Kate Plus Eight" returns to TV Aug. 3, “You’re still going to see two parents that love their kids, but you’ll see them parenting separately," TLC General Manager and President Eileen O’Neill said at a Television Critics Association panel in Pasadena. “You’ll see Jon struggle in the kitchen trying to make pizza for his kids,” O'Neill said. "You’ll see what its like when Kate has to put a tent up for the first time for her kids, who love to camp in their backyard.” O'Neill didn't reveal whether Jon's dates -- including Kate Major and Hailey Glassman -- will appear on the show.
During his turn minding the kids, goofy Jon helped entertain the posted paparazzi by wearing one of Kate's sunhats as he walked around outside with his dog.
Meanwhile, a friend of Kate's says she is not moving to Rockville, Md., which would put her hours away from her kids on weeks when Jon has custody and is living in the family's Pennsylvania home. "Kate was having lunch there, and after spending a total of one hour in a restaurant that has condos for sale above it, a rumor began that somehow, suddenly, she was buying a condo there," the friend said. "She didn't even know there were apartments for sale there. It's totally false."

Joan Rivers still has a little animosity for Jay Leno. While at the Television Critics Association confab yesterday, she was asked about Leno's new prime time show. Rivers cheekily replied, "I think it's brilliant that Leno is at 10 p.m., because America can get bored more easily and go to sleep earlier. ...

Michael Jackson's mother Katherine has filed court papers seeking extensive financial documentation from the lawyers for his estate and the concert promoter who was arranging the July London concert series. In the papers filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, Katherine says "The special administrators [of Jackson's estate] have, up to this point, refused all requests," and are "apparently intent on keeping her in the dark as much and for as long as possible." But the executors say her demands are unreasonable and require them to copy and hand over "all documents, letters, photographs, notebooks, DVDs, CDs, reports, voice recordings, calendars, drawings, diaries, summaries, storyboards, journals, files, business records, emails, notes, schedules" in special administrator John Branca's possession.

The doctor's attorney said police took cell phones and computer hard drives in their search for any records kept for Michael Jackson or under his aliases, which TMZ is reporting included "Josephine Baker." The DEA was present a week ago when Murray's Houston clinic and storage unit were searched. The raid followed reports that the cardiologist is suspected of giving Jackson, who suffered from insomnia, the fatal dose of propofol, an anesthesia drug that results in unconsciousness.

A month after his death, Michael Jackson remains unburied, and it's legal, as long as the body is stored hygienically in a refrigerated environment while the family tries to decide where he should eventually be buried.

A second police search days after Jackson's death turned up a secret stash of drugs, including some of the anesthesia Propofol, in the closet of the guest room where Murray was staying.

Los Angeles police are trying to build a manslaughter case in the death of Michael Jackson, according to People. Police served a search warrant on the office of Dr. Conrad Murray in Houston where they were collecting documents, computer hard drives and other items.
"The search warrant authorized law enforcement to search for and seize items, including documents, they believed constituted evidence of the offense of manslaughter," Murray's lawyer Ed Chernoff said in a statement.
Murray was the cardiologist hired by Jackson as his 'personal physician' for the London concerts he was planning. It has been speculated that Murray may have been the one to ply the lethal cocktail of drugs believed to have caused Jackson's death.
