A former bodyguard for Britney Spears has gone to Child Protective Services in California with accusations that he saw her beat one of her young sons with a belt and that she has fed both her boys food to which they are allergic, making them ill. The British newspaper The Sun reports that A-list bodyguard Fernando Flores says Spears demanded his belt and then used it to strike one of her sons, either Sean Preston, now 4, or Jayden James, now 3. The incident took place in March or April, he says. Fernandes says he was forced to quit over the singer's erratic behavior, which he says included sexually harassing him by walking around her house naked.

Lindsay Lohan  was sued Wednesday for fraud by a chic Los Angeles boutique whose management claims she owes them almost  $17,000 for clothing, jewelry and accessories she purchased between November 2009 and February. Church Boutique owners David Malvaney and Rodney Burns, doing business as "Tough as Nails LLC," say Lohan, left, has paid just $180 out of $17,060.83 she owed. "Plaintiff's reliance on Lohan's representations [that her business manager would pay the bill] w[as] justified due to the celebrity of Lohan and her well-known status as a movie actress with substantial income," the complaint states. "Filing suit was the last thing we wanted to do, but after six months of not being paid, my clients were left with no choice," attorney Bill Crockett said. "They started this business from scratch, and that they have been successful in attracting an elite clientele does not mean they should be abused."

Actor Jeremy London has filed for a permanent injunction to prevent his mother, Deborah Nielsen, his twin brother, Jason London and Jason's girlfriend, Sofia Karstens, from discussing his personal life with the media. London's complaint, filed Wednesday in L.A. Superior Court, cites the ongoing investigation into London's bizarre kidnapping in Palm Springs in June, when, according to the actor, two men snatched him off the street at gunpoint and made him do drugs. According to the injunction application, London's attorneys sent a cease-and-desist letter to the family, but they continued to give interviews and "post false information" online, which has been "damaging to both his personal reputation and to his career in the entertainment business." The filing also states, "The detective in charge of the [kidnapping] investigation is concerned that the media frenzy caused by the actions of the defendants will compromise his investigation into the criminal matter."

Zoe Saldana, who starred in "Avatar," has gotten engaged to her longtime boyfriend Keith Britton. Saldana, who also appeared in "Star Trek," kept a low profile during their 10 years together, although she did bring Britton, CEO of the online web site My Fashion Data Base, as her date to an Oscar afterparty in March. In an interview with Glamour in March, she was asked how they coped with her hectic work schedule. "Well, it's not like he sits around waiting. We travel a lot, which keeps things alive. We're very private. It's worked for 10 years -- long enough to go to hell and back."

Larry King is ending "Larry King Live" after 25 years, and although his ratings have been falling, he says it's his decision. King used Twitter to announce: "I’m ending my nightly show this fall but continuing at CNN." He says will be doing specials and would like to focus on sports stories, and wrote in another message, "It's time to hang up my nightly suspenders." In a statement on CNN.com, King said, ""Now, decades later, I talked to the guys here at CNN and I told them I would like to end 'Larry King Live,' the nightly show, this fall and CNN has graciously accepted, giving me more time for my wife and I to get to the kids' little league games." CNN sources tell TMZ they're talking "with a number of people" and they expect to make a decision on Larry's replacement in two weeks to a month. Among the names mentioned as a replacement if CNN keeps the live talk format is Ryan Seacrest, who has occasionally filled in for King.

The second time was the charm for Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green, who quietly married at the Four Seasons Hotel resort last weekend while vacationing in Hawaii. "Yes, they are married," a rep for Fox told People. Green's son with Vanessa Marcil, 8-year-old Kassius, reportedly attended and gave his dad away. The pair met in 2004 and got engaged in November 2006, then called it off in February 2009, a step that was described as "mutual." But the pair were seen together in public recently and earlier this month, her spokesman said they were engaged again. When they were engaged the first time, Green said his dream wedding would be small. "Originally we were talking elopement and now we might have a few people there," he said. The pair continued on their vacation-turned-honeymoon, above, pampering themselves with "a variety of [spa] treatments all day long," an employee of the resort said.

Also raising questions about whether they have already secretly tied the knot are comedian Russell Brand and singer Katy Perry. During an appearance on "The Graham Norton Show," Perry said she couldn't express herself freely because "My mother-in-law is in the audience." And in an interview with OK! magazine, Brand referred to Perry as his wife, then clarified that they haven't actually married yet. Asked about how he proposed, Brand said, "In India, on an elephant at midnight, under a blue moon. There were flowers everywhere, men bearing torches. The ritual became so powerful and theatrical, I was overwhelmed to the point where it was difficult to speak, difficult to utter even those few words that I had to say to make the transition from the life I had to the life I have now."

Definitely getting married Friday are Miss US runner-up Carrie Prejean and Oakland Raiders quarterback Kyle Boller. The reportedly lavish wedding is planned for the Grand Del Mar Hotel and resort in San Diego. Prejean lost the Miss USA crown after she stated her opposition to gay marriage in response to a question from gay blogger Perez Hilton. Prejean then came under fire for everything from her breast implants to nude photos that violated her contract as Miss California USA, and she was stripped of her title. Last year, she released a book titled, "Still Standing: The Untold Story of My Fight Against Gossip, Hate, and Political Attacks." She and Boller became engaged in February. TMZ has posted photos of items from the couple's wedding gift registry, ranging from a waffle maker to a picture frame.

Another day, another claim in the Mel-Oksana fight. Now Oksana Grigorieva's attorneys say Mel Gibson's attorney lied when he said Mel has been more than generous with Grigorieva, the mother of his baby daughter, Lucia. "The statement released to TMZ on behalf of Mel Gibson is based upon complete distortions of the truth regarding Mr. Gibson's financial contributions toward the parties' child and conveniently ignores his obligations to the parties' child under California law," says Marci Levine. Levine refused to say how much Gibson owes, but sources close to Grigorieva claim he has not paid child support since the couple split months ago. Levine says Gibson "persists in attempting to 'litigate' this matter in the media," and adds, "Unlike Mr. Gibson, Ms. Grigorieva has not, and will not engage in this type of undignified banter in the press."

Recent health problems -- an emergency appendectomy, brain hemorrhage, a small stroke and the discovery of a hole in his heart -- have not slowed down rocker and reality show contestant Bret Michaels, who says he'd love to fill Simon Cowell's seat the the "American Idol" judges table."We have a meeting in L.A. in a couple of weeks and we're going to sit down and talk," he says in an interview with Parade. "They did a poll and I think it was Madonna, P. Diddy, Howard Stern and myself, and I took 50 percent or 60 percent of the vote and that's tremendous. I would love to be a judge on 'American Idol.' I think I would bring a lot to the table." Not that Michaels thinks he could replace Cowell, the co-creator of the show. "I would have to bring my own personality," says Michaels. "I think if they have someone in there to try to imitate Simon, it would be a mistake; he's an original. ... Bring someone who can bring a little grit, true grit back to the show."

In an interview aired Monday on the VH1 show "Behind the Music," Jennifer Hudson says the murders of her mother, brother and nephew in 2008 were "a blur" and "surreal ... It was like I was outside of myself." Hudson went into seclusion, she says: "For almost two weeks straight . . . [I was] inside one room with just family and friends coming in and out. I prayed when I'd get up in the morning and prayed before I laid down at night." She returned to public life with a moving performance of "You Pulled Me Through" at the 2009 Grammys, and, she says, "I was definitely thinking of my family when I was singing that song." Today, she says her son David, 11 months old, "reminds me of my nephew," and also helps her remember her mother. "In so many ways I channel her because she was such a great mom," she says. Her son "makes me feel like the most special person on earth. I want him to get the same love and the same upbringing my mother gave us."

After Mel Gibson and the mother of his baby, Oksana Grigorieva, had a physical confrontation on Jan. 6, Grigorieva did see a dentist for tooth repairs, and TMZ reports that there are photos of the damage to her mouth she says she suffered when Gibson punched her twice in the face. A source in Gibson's camp says the only damage was to veneers, and he didn't do it. "Mel has no idea what she did after he left the house."

Meanwhile, Gibson's attorney has fired back against Oksana Grigorieva's charges that she is supporting herself by borrowing money and maxing out her credit cards. Stephen Kolodny tells TMZ that Gibson has given Grigorieva the use of a mansion he owns, bought her a car and health insurance and gave her "tens of thousands of dollars to support her and Lucia over the past months." Kolodny says Gibson has provided much more than what's required of him under a support and custody agreement the former couple reached in mediation, which sources say is "well over $10,000 a month." But after Grigorieva denied Gibson the right to see their daughter on Father's Day, Kolodny says Gibson will pay her only what they agreed to in mediation.

The nearly five-year marriage of Sandra Bullock and Jesse James is over. The couple filed papers last week under seal in a Texas court ending the marriage. The actress filed for divorce in April after widespread reports of James' infidelity; the documents cited cited "discord or conflict of personalities" as the reason for the split. She filed for divorce back in April in Austin, where she has a home, using their initials in a scrambled order to keep it secret.

Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil was arrested Monday morning in Las Vegas for DUI, police say. Police pulled Neil over after a woman told police he grabbed her camera and broke it after she took his picture. He was booked at the Clark County Detention Center. This is not the singer's first run-in with the law: In 1984 he pleaded guilty to DUI and vehicular manslaughter in the death of musician Nicholas "Razzle" Dingley. Neil's blood alcohol level was .17 when he crashed into another car, killing the Hanoi Rocks drummer and seriously injuring two others in the car. He served 15 days of a 30-day jail sentence, paid $2.5 million restitution to the victims and their families and served 200 hours of community service. In 2002, he was arrested for allegedly assaulting a music producer outside a Los Angeles nightclub. A year later he was charged with misdemeanor battery for allegedly attacking a prostitute at Nevada's Moonlite Bunny Ranch brothel. In both cases, he pleaded no contest, paid restitution and performed 100 hours of community service. And TMZ reports that Neil made a plea deal in 2007 in Las Vegas that dropped a DUI charge in exchange for his plea to reckless driving. That 2007 plea deal could save him from a jail term, because in Nevada, people who are convicted of DUI twice in seven years must serve jail time,  from 10 days to six months.

It was an accidental overdose of prescription medication that sent former tennis star Jennifer Capriati to the hospital,where she was recovering "fully and stably" Monday night, a family rep says. Capriati, who has suffered from drug problems in the past, was taken to a Florida hospital Sunday morning after a 911 call.

It could just be a negotiating tactic, but Steve Carell says Michael Scott will be resigning from "The Office" in May. On the red carpet for his new movie "Despicable Me," Carell said, "I just think it's time. I want to fulfill my contract. When I first signed on I had a contract for seven seasons, and this coming year is my seventh. I just thought it was time for my character to go." But he doesn't see the departure of Michael Scott as being fatal for the comedy ensemble set in the Scranton office of Dunder Mifflin. "It doesn't certainly mean the end of the show. ... I see it as a positive in general for the show." He added, "The show is great, and the ensemble is so strong, and the writers are great, so it's just one part of that ensemble drifting off."

In her cover story in the July issue of Vanity Fair, Angelina Jolie says she and Brad Pitt won't be getting married or working together anytime soon. "We're not against getting married," she said. "It's just like we already are. Children are clearly a commitment, a bigger commitment [than marriage]. It's for life." She and Pitt won''t be making a movie together, she says, because "We like working together, but we work together every day. We're building the most important thing together. A family." And she gave a personality rundown on all the children (except Pax): "Mad's a real intellectual, which I can take no credit for genetically. He's great at school, great at history. He feels like he could be a writer or travel the world and learn about places and things. Zahara's got an extraordinary voice and is just so elegant and well spoken. Shiloh's hysterically funny, one of the goofiest, most playful people you'll meet. Knox and Viv are classic boy and girl. She's really female. And he's really a little dude." And speaking of her little dude, Knox, what about tomboy Shiloh? "Shiloh, we feel has Montenegro style," Jolie says. "It's how people dress there. She likes tracksuits, she likes [regular] suits. So it's a suit with a tie and a jacket and slacks, or a tracksuit. She likes to dress like a boy. She wants to be a boy. So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys' everything. She thinks she's one of the brothers." And the big family won't be getting any bigger right away, she says: "We want to make sure we don't build a family so big that we don't have absolutely enough time to raise them each really well."

Diandra Douglas got a $45 million settlement when she and Michael Douglas divorced 10 years ago, but now she's saying that she's owed 50 percent of his take from "Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps." A clause in their 2000 divorce settlement entitles her to half of his earnings from any residuals, merchandising or spinoffs of movies made while they were together, so Diandra filed suit against Michael in Manhattan Supreme Court earlier this month. "The divorce agreement says that Diandra and Michael are to split 50/50 anything related to the films he made during their 23-year marriage," a source told E! News. "She is seeking that money that she is owed. He unfortunately doesn't want to pay her it." Douglas' legal team says the movie is a sequel, not a spinoff, and isn't covered by the clause. "It's the same character, the same title, just years later," says Diandra's lawyer Nancy Chemtob. But in court, Michael's attorney Marily Chinitz said, "They're not the same thing. He doesn't want her to be an albatross around his neck forever."

Last Friday, Mel Gibson applied for a restraining order to keep the mother of his baby daughter away from him, apparently in answer to the restraining order she got against him earlier in the week. Reports emerged over the weekend that there was a physical altercation Jan. 6 between Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva, seen together at left in happier times. Sources close to Grigorieva say Gibson punched her in the face in a fit of rage, breaking her teeth and giving her a concussion. But Gibson's camp says "Oksana was completely out of control that day, screaming and shaking Lucia like a ragdoll. Mel stepped in to stop her from injuring the baby." A source close to Grigorieva says,  "Mel and his camp are spinning the facts in a desperate attempt to protect his reputation." The source denies she shook the baby, and instead, "She tried to protect the baby during one of Gibson's violent episodes." The dueling restraining orders were filed after Grigorieva withheld 9-month-old Lucia from the actor despite an agreement allowing a Father's Day visit. In an interview with a British newspaper, Grigorevia says Gibson pays her nothing to support the baby, and "I am having to live on credit cards and borrowed money." She also said, "There are so many lies being said about me. I was trying to keep things dignified and be respectful to the father of my daughter, but what he is doing is cruelty."

The Forever Michael Memorial dinner that was held over the weekend to mark the first anniversary of the King of Pop's death was poorly attended, sources say, with only Katherine Jackson, Tito Jackson and one of Randy Jackson's daughters representing the family and even fewer celebs on hand. The memorial did not have the support of Randy Jackson or the Michael Jackson estate. In tweets during the day Saturday, Randy Jackson said his parents were being exploited by the "Jackson Family Foundation," which arranged the event. "Let me be clear, there's no legitimate 'Jackson Family Foundation' that my brothers & sisters are aware of,"  he wrote. He also said, "I know my parents would not be involved if they really knew the characters they have aligned themselves with."

Former teen tennis star Jennifer Capriati, 34, was hospitalized Sunday after paramedics responded to a call for a possible overdose from a hotel in Riviera Beach, Fla. Capriati's father said his daughter is recovering. She won 14 career titles and a gold medal at the 1992 Olympics and made headlines when she was charged with marijuana possession in 1994, resulting in the mug shot seen at left. In an interview with the New York Daily News in July 2007, Capriati admitted to suffering from depression and having suicidal thoughts. She said, "When I stopped playing, that's when all this came crumbling down. If I don't have [tennis], who am I? What am I? I was just alive because of this. I've had to ask, 'Well, who is Jennifer? What if this is gone now?' I can't live off of this the rest of my life."

Deputies were called to a neighbor dispute after Kourtney Kardashian's boyfriend Scott Disick got into a screaming match with a woman who lives next door to their Calabasas, Calif., house. It started when the neighbor criticized his parking. Disick exploded and the confrontation was caught on video. "We do own the place, and we're leaving because you're disgusting! Look at you!" Scott yelled at the woman. "You know I have to sell my house cheaper because of you! You're disgusting, I would kill myself if I looked like you ... you whale!"

Actress Mena Suvari and concert producer Simone Sestito married Saturday in a private church in Vatican City, Italy, followed by a private reception outside the city. They chose the spot because most of Sestino's family lives near Rome, and Suvari told EOnline back in 2008 that she would search the region for a good wedding spot while she attended the Rome Film Festival for the premiere of her film "Garden of Eden." She said at the time, "I really want it to be romantic and like a fairy-tale wedding." A guest said, "The ceremony was truly unique and Mena looked breathtaking. They are very much in love." The pair, who met at the Toronto Film Festival in 2007, have been engaged since 2008. In a case of art imitating life, Suvari will next be seen in the comedy, "You May Not Kiss the Bride."

Groups of fans began arriving yesterday at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, Calif., to spend the anniversary of Michael Jackson's death as close to his mausoleum as they could get. Strict rules were put in place to ban sales of Jackson merchandise and prevent groups of fans from mobbing the tomb or the Jackson family home, where his children live with their grandmother, Katherine, their uncles, aunts and cousins. To mark the anniversary, E!News released photos of Jackson's three children, Prince Michael, 13; Paris, 12; and Blanket, 8, seen at left, at home. Also arriving at the cemetery were thousands of flowers, including hundreds of Michael's favorite, sunflowers. The flowers were dropped 100 yards from the tomb because of construction in the cemetery.

In an interview with Britain's "GMTV" to mark the anniversary, Michael's sister LaToya again claims that he was murdered. "Michael was murdered for his [music] catalog," she said. "Michael was worth so much more dead than alive. His children deserve the truth, I think his parents deserve the truth, his family and his fans." LaToya also says that Dr. Conrad Murray's continued freedom is "a slap in the face" to Michael, his family and all his fans. She said, "It's totally unfair, it's wrong and it was not an accident. I don't understand the justice system here. I don't understand what's going on and why this is taking so long and why the people that are responsible for this are not given the justice they deserve." She admitted that Michael was "excruciatingly thin" and not healthy when he died. "He's always been thin, but Michael was not well, and the people that worked around him knew that he was not well," she said. "Michael did not have a good bill of health, although it was reported that he did. ... Michael was freezing, [his] temperature would go up and down. He was extremely fragile. When you embraced him and hugged him, he was all bones." LaToya first alleged that Michael was murdered last July, when she noted that he had needle marks on his neck and arms.

The man who is under arrest in the bizarre kidnapping and forced drug use alleged by actor Jeremy London tells RadarOnline in a jailhouse interview that the two of them took a "joyride and partied for hours" on the night of June 10 in Palm Springs. Brandon Adams, 26, says the whole thing began when London and his wife Melissa arrived at a 7-Eleven where Adams and his uncle were hanging out and London asked asked Adams to "score him pills." Adams says, "There was no gun. There was never a pipe. We got drunk and I hooked him up with some Ecstasy and Xanax and we took a joyride and partied for hours." Adams said London and his wife "were hanging outside the 7-Eleven acting really strange. He was pacing and sweating and he looked tweaked out. His wife was acting paranoid too." Adams says he and his uncle and a friend asked the Londons if they needed help with their car's flat tire, then asked London for a ride home. "As soon as we got in the car, Jeremy asked us if we could get him five Xanax and five Oxycontin. Melissa was asking for Xanax too. I told him I could hook him up but that I wanted a couple of beers. He agreed." Melissa told RadarOnline.com that she asked Jeremy to take her home soon after the men got in the car, because she had "a gut feeling" that something was wrong. But Adams says he took London to his own house, where he met Adams' wife and children, then drove him to his neighborhood and dropped him off.

Earlier this week, London told RadarOnline that the kidnapper held a gun to his head and threatened to kill him unless he smoked a pipe filled with unknown drugs.

London's spokesman, Dominic Friesen, told EOnline, "Jeremy London has consistently passed all random drug testing administered by the State of California and has successfully maintained his sobriety. The recent jailhouse statements by Mr. Adams are nothing more than a fabricated and false account of the night in question. He is desperate to avoid a life sentence behind bars and will say anything to avoid the serious charges the D.A. has filed against him."

A taped interview of Jake Pavelka and Vienna Giardi, the "Bachelor" couple who ended their engagement over the weekend, ended abruptly but whose fault it was depends on your point of view. TMZ reports that during the Bachelor reunion, the first time the two have met since they split, Pavelka lost his temper and raised his arm and made a fist in Vienna's direction. A source close to Giardi told TMZ that Pavelka "has a really bad hidden temper. He snaps all the time, it was just the first time he did it in front of people." The two were separated and the interview was ended. But an insider told UsMagazine, "It did not happen. [Pavelka] was calm and collected." A production insider said that Giardi interrupted Pavelka constantly and "Chris Harrison had to tell her over and over again to let him talk. ... Vienna was in such a rage, if there was anyone to fear it was her."

Lindsay Lohan has been ordered to submit to another deposition in the civil lawsuit caused by her 2007 DUI and drug arrest. Lohan's attorney says she has already been interviewed for eight hours by attorneys, and even though the judge has limited the term of this deposition to two hours, says the order borders on harassment. "In general, although I think that the questions they want to ask Lindsay are improper, we will participate in the deposition, as ordered by Judge Stone, and Lindsay will respond to their questions honestly," attorney Ed McPherson told E! News. "Fortunately, the judge has limited the harassment to two hours." Lohan was sued by Tracie Rice, the mother of the woman who was Lohan;'s assistant at the time, who was driving the car Lohan was chasing. Three men who were in the SUV Lohan commandeered to chase Rice's car have also sued her. Rice's attorneys are expected to question Lohan about her drug use at the time of the accident. The deposition will be taken after the July 6 hearing in her probation for the arrest.

Meanwhile, Lohan's former assistant, who left suddenly two weeks ago, is being offered up to $50,000 to write a tell-all about life with Lohan, which would include Lohan's "lost passport" time in Cannes.

The source says that although Lieven resigned abruptly, it's not unusual, because "It's a hard job ... it's not abnormal for people in Hollywood to go through assistants like paper towels."

After he scored the U.S. team's game-winning World Cup goal, L.A. Galaxy player Landon Donovan blew a kiss to his estranged wife, actress Bianca Kajlich, who was watching. Although the two split quietly a year ago, it seems as though their relationship is warming up again. "We are not officially divorced," said Donovan of his union with the "Rules of Engagement" star. Donovan also said he and Kajlich shared an emotional phone call Thursday morning. "It was nice," he says. "It would surprise no one if Landon and Bianca were back together very soon," one of Kajlich's friends told People. "They have remained in contact and are very close to one another. ... The fact that Landon wanted to share his special moment with her is very significant." The pair, who married on Dec, 31, 2006, remained friends despite the 2009 breakup.

TMZ reports that the Jackson family is planning for a deluge of fans on the one-year anniversary of Michael Jackson's death. The Jackson Family compound, left,  will be locked down, and upward of 40 officers from the LAPD will be patrolling the neighborhood on Friday, Saturday and Sunday to make sure that crowds don't become a problem.

It is also expected that the LAPD will be posting "no parking" signs around the neighborhood, and will crack down on vendors setting up tables to sell Jackson paraphernalia. Last year, more than 3,000 unauthorized t-shirts were confiscated after they started popping up after the singer's death.

Meanwhile, Forest Lawn, where Michael is buried, is also getting tough in advance of the anniversary of his death. Forest Lawn says that fans will only be allowed to enter the parking lot of the cemetery, but will not be allowed near his mausoleum. The cemetery also will not permit the release of doves or balloons, and they have also outlawed music and dancing, as well. The Glendale PD also says that they will not allow fans to camp out at Forest Lawn, nor will cars be allowed to park on the streets in the 24 hours prior. They also plan to crack down on street vendors selling any unauthorized goods, including Jackson merchandise.

Lindsay Lohan took to Twitter to rant about a reality television show on Bravo airing yesterday which portrayed her in a bad light. The show "Double Exposure" chronicles the daily life of fashion photographers, and the episode last night was called 'Is Lindsay Here Yet?' The episode shows an incident where Lohan was to appear at 10 a.m., but didn't show up for several hours.

Lohan called the show a total fabrication. "This couldn't be more UNTRUE. Sucks when 'friends' use you {in this case for ratings) even if they're lyin," Lohan tweeted. "As for Bravo and their false representation of me on their new show; I was given the wrong call time-now I know on purpose. . .it was a set up."

But an insider says it is true, and that show was being generous in saying she was eight hours late, when she was really ten hours late. Also, E! News notes that a women's fashion magazine wrote about the incident when it happened last fall, and noted that Lohan showed up at 8 p.m. for a 10 a.m. photo shoot.

Mariah Carey is in the dog house with a veterinarian who is suing the pop star for failure to pay nearly $30,000 in bills for her three dogs.

Justin Bieber fans can rest easy. Kim Kardashian has a new man, and it isn't the 16-year old pop star. Kardashian has been linked to Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Miles Austin, whom she met at a Los Angeles restaurant a few months ago. A source tells People that after meeting at the restaurant, they "exchanged numbers and have been talking ever since. They've had a few dates and it's going really well." But the source is quick to point out while they are dating, he is not exactly her 'boyfriend' yet. Kardashian previously has been linked to NFL star Reggie Bush and Portuguese soccer player Cristiano Rinaldo.

Gregg Allman is recovering after having a liver transplant yesterday in a Jacksonville, Fla., hospital. Allman was diagnosed with Hepatitis C in 2007 and liver failure is frequently an end-result for those fighting the disease. Allman learned Tuesday that a donor had been found, and he drove from his home in Savannah, to Jacksonville to prep for the transplant. Allman said in a statement, "I changed my ways years ago, but we can't turn back time. Every day is a gift, and I can't wait to get back on the road making music with my friends." Allman had a history of cocaine and heroin use earlier in his career, according to the E! News story.

Former Olympic skating champion Scott Hamilton had a second brain surgery performed yesterday to remove a tumor. The benign tumor, called craniopharyngioma, was first diagnosed in 2004, and Hamilton underwent treatment then to remove the tumor near his pituitary gland. The tumor came back, but with this surgery, doctors say he should make a complete recovery.

A previously sealed court document reveals that Gary Coleman sought a restraining order against his ex-wife, Shannon Price, saying she looted his home while he was in the hospital after heart surgery. In the documents, filed Feb. 19, Coleman said that while he was recovering in the hospital, Price was trespassing in his Santaquin home. "I am concerned that irreplaceable memorabilia, irreplaceable model trains, irreplaceable items of personal property will be stolen, damaged or destroyed," Coleman wrote, adding that Price "has shown a tendency to damage, destroy and steal my property and I believe she will continue to do so in my absence and while she is trespassing in my home." He asked the court to evict her from his home. The filing may weaken the legal claim of Price, who removed Coleman from life support after he suffered a head injury in a fall at his house while she was present. Price's legal claim to Coleman's estate is being opposed by Anna Gray, a former girlfriend of Coleman's, who has a legal will dated 2005. So far, Price has produced an unofficial, unwitnessed handwritten will. Coleman was cremated June 17, and in accordance to his will, no funeral service was held. A court-appointed attorney will hold the ashes until his heir is established.

Meanwhile, in a joint appearance on "the Joy Behar Show," Willie and Sue Coleman say they were robbed of a chance to say goodbye to their son. "I hurt more and more every day," Sue said. But they don't blame Price, who had Coleman's life support disconnected without notifying them. "We're not holding any animosity towards her because, like my wife said, she was young and inexperienced," Willie Coleman told Behar. Willie Coleman talked about their estrangement from their son, whom they adopted when he was four days old. "When Gary turned 18 years old, you know how you do a horse?" Willie said. "We were put out to pasture." Coleman said his son told him at the time, "I just feel that you were holding me in prison." Willie Coleman says he sometimes re-reads affectionate letters from his son, and they give him comfort.

Joe Jackson, Michael's father, has filed documents that inform Dr. Conrad Murray that Jackson intends to sue him for the wrongful death of his son a year ago Friday. Joe Jackson claims Murray lied to paramedics who asked what medications he had given Michael, and had been drinking at a strip club called Sam's Hofbrau hours before he allegedly administered the dose of Propofol that killed Jackson. The document says, "It was reckless for him to 'drink' prior to administering anesthesia to Michael Jackson.  He concealed his conduct from Michael Jackson." Joe Jackson argues that he has grounds to sue because of his father-son relationship with Michael and because he was a "dependent parent." TMZ, which reports that Murray received a copy of the document in March, was told by his legal team, "The allegations are absolute, utter nonsense." They say Murray does not drink.

Sources close to Vienna Girardi say she broke up with "Bachelor" Jake Pavelka because he spent his time going to photo shoots and other media events, rather than working on their relationship, and that he was a "fame whore," But Pavelka says that the pair will remain pals "no matter what happens." Her stepmother says Vienna left behind the $50,000 diamond, which Jake gave her on the show, but he'll have to return the ring to the production company, sources say. And just days after she moved out, Vienna was spotted dancing and holding hands with Gregory Michaels, of "Greek," the actor with whom Jake suspected she was involved.

Jeremy London's brother is among those speculating about the actor's reported abduction at gunpoint a week and a half ago, but London said in a videotaped statement that the incident "actually did happen" and has "been an absolute nightmare." Jeremy's twin, Jason, said, "I'm glad my brother’s OK, but I have serious questions about what transpired. His health is our number one concern." In the videotaped statement released to RadarOnline, London says,  "It was one of the worst days of my life. I thought I was going to die. Thank God I made it out alive. I had a gun put to my head, I had my family threatened. We're working closely with the Palm Springs Police Department to get the rest of the guys." London, a recovering drug addict, told police he was forced to smoke marijuana with his kidnappers and buy and hand out alcohol on the streets. He has been embroiled in a custody battle with his ex-wife, Melissa, over their son Lyric, 3. But Melissa, who also has allegedly battled drug use, was with London in the initial stages of the incident. Jeremy London accuses his mother, his twin and his twin's girlfriend, Sofia Karsten, of spreading "outrageous lies" about the incident. London, who says he hasn't spoken to his family in six months, sent "cease and desist" letters warning them to stop commenting publicly on the case. Asked if police doubted London's story, Palm Springs Police spokeswoman Melissa Desmarais said: "No, not at this point. Our investigators had enough information to arrest a suspect and the investigation is ongoing."

Expensive jewelry that was given to actress Anne Hathaway, left, by her former boyfriend, a con man, will be auctioned off to repay his victims, according to the New York Post.

Michael Jackson's estate is readying to sue a businessman who has gone into business with Jackson's own mother, Katherine. Howard Mann acquired a "treasure trove" of Michael Jackson items when he paid off an overdue bill on a storage locker rented by Jackson's father, Joe. Within the locker were tapes of more than 250 unreleased songs, as well as nearly 20,000 photos of the pop legend.

Now Mann is working with Katherine Jackson to bring these items to the public, but is, meanwhile, cutting the Jackson estate and children out of the proceeds. So says estate lawyer, Howard Weitzman. Mann and Katherine are releasing a book of photos this week called, "Never Can Say Goodbye." Mann also has plans with Katherine to release several albums featuring the previously unheard songs, as well as a possible biopic on Katherine herself.

Weitzman calls all of these deals an "exploitation" of "estate assets" and that he will take "whatever action is necessary to prevent him from unlawfully profiting." The attorney told TMZ that Mann "may be using his relationship with Mrs. Jackson to infringe upon Michael Jackson's copyrights ... to the detriment of, among others, Michael's 3 kids."

The coroner in Polk County, Iowa, says that the death of Slipknot bassist Paul Gray in May was caused by a deadly combination of pain-killers morphine and fentanyl. Gray's body was found in a Des Moines hotel room, and police say that Gray did not have a prescription for either narcotic. A hypodermic needle and pills were found in the room at the time of Gray's death, but the coroner said that the pills did not factor in the cause of death.

The Backstreet Boys surprised fans attending a New Kids on the Block concert over the weekend in New York's Radio City Music Hall. The boy band which once dominated the music charts performed two songs during the concert, and returned to the stage for the finale. The Backstreet Boys gave credit to the New Kids on the Block for leading the way in the music business and called them their mentors.

In her first candid interview since her son's death a year ago Friday, Katherine Jackson tells the Daily Mirror that the three kids Michael left behind have no friends outside the family and spend hours every day listening to his music. "They don't have any friends. They don't go to school; they have private lessons at home -- but that will change in September, when they are due to enroll at private college," she says. But they kids have hardly been along in the Jackson mansion: "They have their cousins and aunts and uncles around them constantly, and that's helped them immensely," she says. "To them, it's normal, it's the life they have known. They have a certain time to go to bed, then they get up and get dressed for lessons. They practice karate and swim, which they love." Katherine, who was appointed the legal guardian of Prince,13, Paris, 12, and Blanket, 8, says Paris has shown some musical aptitude -- "I see [Michael's] talent in her," says Katherine -- and has turned her bedroom into a shrine to her father, although Katherine suggested flowers or a ballet theme. "Paris went into a closet and she brought out seven or eight pictures of Michael, and she told me, 'No, I want daddy hanging in my room'. So she goes to bed looking at him and wakes up looking at him. She said, 'I always want to be able to see him.'" Prince, she says, "Is serious about a lot of things. He wants to be a cameraman or produce movies."

Katherine is releasing a coffee table book this week about her son, titled, "Never Can Say Goodbye: The Katherine Jackson Archives." the book of photos and Katherine's memories will be available through the web site, www.jacksonsecretvault.com. TMZ also reports that Katherine plans to take MJ's three children to his hometown of Gary, Ind., on the anniversary of his death because it is a "family point of connection."

The porn star who filed a paternity suit claiming Tiger Woods is the father of her 9-year-old son says she told him that the child is his and that he once gave her gifts "for your son." Devon James says she got pregnant in 2000 and did not see Tiger or tell him about the boy until 2006. She says that when she saw him in August 2008, she told him that he was the father of the boy, and while he didn't respond, he later gave her a golf club, a hat and a bracelet for the boy. Devon James's mother says she has DNA results that prove that another man, who was in prison when the boy was born, is his real father. On Father's Day, Tiger Woods was away from his kids, playing in the US Open, and two small planes towing mocking banners flew over the course. One of them read, "Tiger, are you my daddy?" and the other read, "Happy Father's Day Tiger LOL." Back in April, ESPN banned footage of two mocking banners that flew over the course while Tiger played in the Masters.

Jeremy London's mother, brother and brother's girlfriend have been served with cease-and-desist notices to keep them from talking publicly about London's bizarre kidnapping case. Police said last week that London had been held at gunpoint for 12 hours earlier in June by some men who asked him for a ride after helping him change a flat tire in Palm Springs. The actor, who had been in rehab for substance abuse, told police that he was forced to do drugs and buy and hand out alcohol on the streets. One suspect was arrested, but two more are still at large. London's wife, Melissa, says she is worried that her husband's family has been talking to various media outlets, which she and London are afraid will affect the case.

Lindsay Lohan is fond of Kombucha tea, which carries a label that indicates it contains just a trace of alcohol, less than .5 percent. But the drink has been pulled from shelves across the country because it is suspected of having more alcohol than the label lists. Could Kombucha have caused the alcohol-sensing bracelet Lohan wears to report that she had consumed alcohol on the night of the MTV Awards? G.T. Dave, the president and CEO of Kombucha, tells EOnline that he doubts it. "Although we are not familiar with the technology or sensitivity of SCRAM bracelets, we think it would be highly unlikely that our products would trigger an alarm," said Dave.

Amanda Bynes says she's retired, at age 24. "I don't love acting anymore so I've stopped doing it," Bynes tweeted around 3 a.m. Saturday. The onetime Nickelodeon kid, who started headlining TV shows at age 13 and starred in "The Amanda Show," "Rugrats," "All That" and "What I Like About You," says, "Being an actress isn't as fun as it may seem.

She added, "If I don't love something anymore I stop doing it. ... I know 24 is a young age to retire, but you heard it here first I've retired." Her next movie -- her last? -- "Easy A," in which she stars opposite Emma Stone, will be released in the fall.

A man is in custody in connection with a bizarre incident last week in which "Party of Five" actor Jeremy London, a recovering addict, said he was kidnapped, held at gunpoint for 12 hours and forced to smoke marijuana and purchase and hand out alcohol on the streets during an ordeal in Palm Springs, Calif., police say. London, 37, was changing a flat tire on his car at 2 p.m. on June 10, when a group of men stopped to assist him. "After the tire was changed, [London] offered the men a ride home," a police statement says. "A short time later, he was held at gunpoint in the vehicle by one of the occupants. The gunman forced London to drive to various locations throughout the city, purchase alcohol and use illicit drugs." London was able to escape around 2 a.m. on June 11 and notify police. His rep said, "Thankfully, Jeremy London survived his terrorizing ordeal in Palm Springs last week – although understandably shaken and scared, he is currently working closely with law enforcement as they investigate the horrific turn of events." Brandon Adams, 26, of Palm Springs, pleaded not guilty to charges of kidnapping, robbery, possession of stolen property, vehicle theft and carjacking, police said.

Blogger Perez Hilton, who tweeted a link to an apparently explicit paparazzi photo of Miley Cyrus, probably won't face any legal consequences, a Beverly Hills criminal defense attorney says. Attorney Howard Price told People, "It seems unlikely Perez would be prosecuted for any criminal act in this case. ... Prosecutors aren't going to waste their time trying to go after an isolated event like this. They are more concerned about more serious and widespread cases." After he was the target of outrage from the hosts of "The View," ABC pulled ads for the show from Hilton's web site. Hilton told Entertainment Weekly, "I find it odd that an advertiser would choose to pull an ad off my site because the photo in question, which was not pornographic and showed a fully clothed Miley Cyrus, was not posted on my website or even linked from my site."

Here's a shock -- a source tells TMZ that a DNA test taken in 2002 as part of "an ongoing child support battle" proves that Tiger Woods is not the father of porn star Devon James's son. But that hasn't stopped James -- real name Melinda Jannette -- from filing a paternity suit anyway, which she did Thursday in Florida. Devon James' mother, who may be the "source" mentioned above, has custody of 9-year-old Austin Brinling, and says her daughter made up the whole story. Published photos show that the little guy does look a bit like Tiger.
