Ashley Roberts hit the tiles in London with a mystery date whose face was concealed under his jacket.
The blonde Pussycat Doll singer, who also tried to hide her face with her arm, dropped a high-heeled Louboutin shoe, Cinderella style, outside the Jalouse nightclub.
Roberts and Leo DiCaprio earlier spent time together at the international polo show in Surrey before hitting the Whisky Mist club in Mayfair.
DiCaprio was later spotted midweek leaving the club in the same face-masking style. To hide from onlookers, he wore a grey piece of fabric that fitted under his baseball cap.
The general rule is that if you give birth to some man’s baby, you get the big bucks. That is what Kelis had learned recently when the singer won big time at the custody hearing which went down last Thursday morning against her estranged husband Nas. The judge ruled that the rapper is expected to pay $55,000 to the singer in combine spousal and child support a month, plus pay the mortgage on their LA home. It now officially sucks to be Nas. One thing that he would have learned through all of this is that cheaters never win. There have been reports that Nas cheated on Kelis which led to their split.
It has only been 4 weeks since Michael Jackson passed away but Marlon and Randy Jackson have already joined Tito on stage performing Jackson 5 songs. The company which put on Reggae Sumfest in Jamaica which kicked on July 19th and will wrap up on July 25th, says that the three brothers performed a mix of Jackson 5 songs and songs from their solo careers. They were flown to Montego Bay and put up in a swanky hotel with all expenses covered. It hasn’t been disclosed as to how much they were paid but it’s being said that it was a large some. The only catch is that they have mandatory meet and greets with fans. This year’s event was also dedicated to the King of Pop.
Authorities have raided the Houston office of Michael Jackson’s doctor, Conrad Murray.
Federal drug agents and Los Angeles police detectives arrived in a convoy of 15 cars at the Texas office, shortly after 10.20am local time this morning.
More than two dozen agents were seen on the scene at the Montgomery Road address.
Murray’s office, which is located at the Armstrong Medical Clinic, is owned by a doctor whose Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) licence to prescribe drugs was revoked in 2005, for "over prescribing", according to officials.
Law-enforcement sources told US television network ABC that agents had obtained a search warrant for this morning’s raid, based on the preliminary results of Jackson’s autopsy, which showed the singer’s cause of death was linked to the powerful anaesthetic, Propofol.
Dr Murray – Jacko’s personal physician – has previously been quizzed twice by police and federal agents.
After the raid began, a spokesperson for Murray told ABC News, "Dr Murray’s legal team is looking into the matter. [There is] no other comment at this time."
Murray was the last doctor to see Jackson before he died, and federal agents want to know if he administered the fatal dose of Propofol, which is normally only used in hospital operating rooms.
Murray and his lawyer, Ed Chernoff, have refused to answer questions about whether the doctor administered the powerful drug to Jackson.
Jackson, 50, died at his rented Los Angeles mansion, on 25 June, after suffering cardiac arrest.
It’s being said that the doctor at the center of the investigation into Michael Jackson’s death is being targeted by the LAPD because of his own words. Law enforcement sources say that Dr. Conrad Murray’s statements to police two days after the King of Pop’s death contained incriminating disclosures about his involvement. Some members of law enforcement were actually shocked that he volunteered and spoke in the first place. The LAPD is already treating the death of the iconic singer as a homicide. Also, though some toxicology results are not yet in, tests results already completed point to Propofol as the primary cause of death.
Neighbours of Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch announced a new group to block any development of the site into a tourist shrine.
Residents of the rural Santa Ynez Valley have formed the group Never! They have the support of community groups, spokesman Bob Field said.
Field said the area doesn’t have the roads, police or other infrastructure to support crowds for a Graceland. The enclave’s rural tranquility would be disturbed, he said.
Property co-owner Thomas Barrack has not proposed developing the site. But Field said Never! is seeking assurance that he won’t. "We have received mixed messages, some reassuring, some troubling. We’d like clear, concrete signs that there are no plans to pursue turning this into a tourist attraction."
Another organisation, the Los Olivos Business Organization, which consists of wineries, restaurants and boutiques has voiced its opposition to a Graceland in a separate statement released the same day.
Michael Jackson lived at Neverland from 1988 to 2003, abandoning it after child molestation charges that centred on the property were laid against him.

Photos of Michael Jackson have recently surfaced, showing a serious injury on the late King of Pop’s right leg. The photo, which was taken in 2002, shows an injury that may have resulted from contact with a “highly caustic, acidic fluid” which would damage the skin and cause it to turn black. An expert told ABC News “On the photographs of Michael Jackson, it looks like there was necrosis on his lower leg where there might have been fluid that went into his lower leg. It looks like there are multiple puncture points from IV placement… If, in fact, he had an IV here, and the IV fluid, which may have been acidic fluid, went into his skin, it might have, in fact, destroyed the skin. That’s all dead skin that would then make an ulceration underneath that skin.” This new piece of evidence just adds fuel to the fire that the singer had a serious drug addiction.
Las Vegas will soon be feeling the Michael Jackson fever with a couple of tributes being planned for the late singer. First, the strip will welcome a special benefit concert in the name of the King of Pop at the Palms Hotel and Casino. The tribute will showcase the talents of “cast members in current shows on the Strip to the big guys, along with some bands” in honor of Michael. There are also some rumblings going around that Jermaine Jackson is planning on meeting with execs at the Wynn Las Vegas, hoping to discuss a possible show featuring the remaining members of the Jackson 5.
Michael Jackson’s production company, MJJ Productions, has reportedly been working on a video game several months before the singer’s death. Similar to Sega Genesis’ ‘Moonwalker’, the game will feature some of the King of Pop’s most memorable hits and will feature speech he recorded before his sudden passing. An MJJ Productions spokesperson spoke on the speculation that the development of the game would come to a standstill, saying “I am sure it will still be released. Michael loved games.” The game is scheduled for a Christmas release. It’s all just a bit creepy to me. I actually think that this is just another money grubbing scheme.
According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, Michael Jackson did not just rely on his regular doctors for drugs but he made his way around several dental offices too. The singer would apparently adept in shopping for doctors. In 2003, the late King of Pop summoned a doctor to his suite at the Las Vegas Mirage because he was told that Michael suffered from a cough and sore throat. The physician said “The whole thing was staged. It was all a lie. They just wanted drugs. They wanted me to call in all these pills under someone else’s name.” When the doctor refused the prescription, Michael’s handler would use intimidation to get what the singer wanted.
The DEA is now lending their help to the LAPD in the investigation of Michael Jackson’s death. The latest targets are five different doctors who prescribed medications to the King of Pop. LAPD found medicine bottles around the singer’s home prescribed to his aliases and some bottles with no prescription at all. The police and the DEA are planning to question the doctors responsible for the bulk of the prescriptions to find out if Michael was receiving proper prescriptions or if there was any shady business going on. With rumors running rampant about Michael having a drug problem, it could only mean bad things for those doctors if they served as enablers.
Hollywood actress Juliette Lewis transformed a library in Lancashire by performing a rock gig.
The 36-year-old star put on the planned performance at Morecambe Library in Lancashire as part of a campaign to get more youngsters into the library.
The actress-turned-singer sported sequinned shoulder pads, sparkling gloves and a glittering vest for the show.
A stage was set up in between the Talking Book section and the DVD area with a mixing desk in front of the Large Fiction A-Z with space made in the middle for 200 fans.
The performance was part of the Get It Loud In Libraries initiative run by Lancashire County Council for the last four years.
Lewis said: "I’ve been thinking about this show for weeks actually. Just the idea of having a rock’n'roll show in a library is very funny. It’s doing what you’re supposed to do, making noise in quiet places. I love it."
Stewart Parsons, the manager of Get It Loud In Libraries, said: "It’s very jumpers for goalposts, as you can see. You are budging huge shelves of large print out of the way to accommodate speakers, monitors and Marshall amps."
Amy Winehouse left her St Lucian resort after bosses there had had enough of her crazy behaviour, it has been claimed.
Amy, 25, has now returned to the UK after an on-off eight months on the Caribbean island.
It is claimed the singer adopted a dog and called it Princess, and it later had puppies leading the area to be fumigated after the dogs got fleas.
A source said: "The management are glad Amy’s left – they only wish she’d taken the dogs with her. Other holidaymakers complained about the fleas and fumigation.
"The staff also became so concerned about Amy’s safety when she went for drunken, middle-of-the-night swims that they installed extra lifesaving equipment around her pool to avoid being sued if something terrible happened. Amy is not a strong swimmer."
Michael Jackson’s death certificate reveals that the cause of death has been listed as “deferred” as investigators continue to test the singer’s brain. Regarding the ongoing neuropathology testing, assistant chief coroner Ed Winter said “As soon as we are done with the brain, we will return it. There is a whole series of tests that will be done.” Winter also claims that many families delay burying their loved ones until the brain has been returned. Perhaps this is the reason why the death certificate doesn’t state where the late King of Pop will be buried. There’s still no information where the final resting place of the singer will be.
As miraculous as it may sound, it seems that the king of pop will be performing his London shows after all. A life-sized hologram of Michael Jackson will be projected on stage and will perform parts of the show that was planned for this summer. Also, there are rumors that the pop singer’s children along with his siblings will take to the stage for one grand finale. And all of this show wouldn’t happen to be free, will it? I guess not. This is probably exactly the way Michael Jackson would’ve wanted it… probably the way the guys from AEG live wanted it too.
The guitarist from Oasis with the security issues has recently come out of the closet and admitted that he is a big admirer of Take That and their current tour… and while Noel Gallagher was out of that closet, he didn’t forget to mention that he also likes Lady GaGa and Girls Aloud. Noel Gallagher said: “Take That are smashing it up with their tour. It couldn’t happen to a bunch of nicer lads. I don’t mind Lady Gaga, she has that bra with the things coming out. The name says it all though doesn’t it? Unbelievably crackers, but she’s got a great voice. I don’t mind Girls Aloud, Kimberley Walsh is my favorite.” Right.. it’s not going to be the SAS agents that keep the fans away from Oasis, that job has been taken up by Noel Gallagher’s pop-ish tastes.
