Michael Jackson's father filed agains Dr Conrad Murray

Infamous father, Joe Jackson, is ready to live up to his name - as the abusive father who is responsible for Michael Jackson and the Jackson Five's career. The love/hate relationship that many fans around the world have for Joe Jackson is surely about to be exacerbated by the civil suit he just filed against Dr. Conrad Murray. According to sources, the L.A. coroner found high traces of propofol - a prescribed medication signed by Dr. Murray - was found in Michael Jackson's blood levels. Murray is already involved in a criminal trial over the accusation while maintaining his absolute innocence in any wrongdoing concerning medicating the King of pop.

Neil Patrick Harris Lands Gig In The Next Installment Of Harold & Kumar

Actor Neil Patrick Harris is again lining up with the funny guys who went to the White Castle for the first time, almost a decade ago. Now on movie three, the Harold & Kumar 'go to' series is quickly becoming a cult classic. Apparently, the movie entitled 'A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas' is slated to be hilarious, centered around Harold and Kumar’s attempts to find a replacement Christmas tree after Kumar burns Harold’s tree down — presumably in a drug-related accident. We're not yet sure where Neil Patrick Harris' character comes in, but we're willing to bet it has something to do with drugs and acohol and over-the-top antics. We've even got a sneak peek pic of Neil Patrick Harris on set:

Bernadette Peters Takes Catherine Zeta-Jones Place In Broadway Musical

Actress, Bernadette Peters has got some big shoes to fill if she plans on replacing Tony award-winnng Catherine Zeta-Jones in her role as Desiree on the Broadway musical 'A Little Night Music'. Recently, Bernadette Peters got some practice as a fill in on Regis & Kelly, where she took Kelly Ripa's role as host for a day. Of course, that job is a little easier than the role that Stephen Sondheim wants her to play. Bernadette Peters said of Mr. Sondheim: "We talk every once in a while. Actually we were talking about something else actually and he said, 'By the way' and I said, 'Well yes, that would be lovely.'" Bernadette was last seen on Television on the set of Ugly Betty. Let's hope she gets her bearings straight pretty quickly. Coming up behind a Tony award winner is no comedy!
