Smooth Criminals Beware: Jackson Junk for Sale
At some point, even Michael Jackson's kitchen sink will be up for auction.
For now, however, it's still the good stuff.
In fact, another of the King of Pop's famous gloves, as well as a tip-worthy hat, could be all yours…
Congress Disses Michael Jackson, Lets Elvis Slide!
Why won't Congress honor Michael Jackson with that resolution? He's the greatest of all time!
—MJGRT
Don't forget the national day of mourning and the postage stamp, right, Al Sharpton?
You've obviously wrapped your righteous outrage around this news: Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee wants a congressional resolution securing permanent praise of M.J.—and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has pronounced no need for one.
At first, a 1,500-word resolution highlighting, among other things, Jackson's provision of 200 turkey dinners to poor Los Angeles families, may seem a wee tad overweening. Especially given that for every M.J. fan there's a guy like Rep. Peter King, who has called the late star a "pervert."
Then again, Congress has honored other figures sporting their share of major flaws, and nobody is saying much about those anymore...
Harry Potter Kids Love the Gossip Girl Kids

Lil Wayne's Zzzz May Cost Him Half a Million
Maybe they should call him Sleepy Wayne.

Talk about sleeping on the job.
Beyoncé & Glee Make Sweet Music Together
Beyoncé's "Single Ladies" just won't go away, will it?
Justin Timberlake had us laughing with his leotard-wearing rendition on Saturday Night Live. Then Joe Jonas had us cringing when he showed off some rather spastic moves to the hit dance song. And of course, there are those gazillion YouTube videos paying homage to Beyoncé's engagement ring anthem.
Now comes Glee, the new upcoming Fox dramedy from Nip/Tuck creator Ryan Murphy.
So how does Mr. Murphy use "Single Ladies"? We'll tell you now so you don't have to wait until the episode airs on Sept. 30.
9021-Oh Baby! Jason Priestley a Proud Papa Again
Hard to believe little Brandon Walsh is a daddy for a second time!
Former Beverly Hills, 90210 hunk Jason Priestley and his makeup artist wife, Naomi, are celebrating the arrival of a bouncing baby boy, his publicist confirms.
The newest addition to the world's most famous ZIP code was born Thursday in Los Angeles.
No other information on the tot was available, but this is the second child for the twosome and their first son.
The Priestleys welcomed daughter Ava Veronica in July of 2007, and the actor announced last April that the couple were expecting again.
Priestley, who turns 40 next month, tied the knot with Naomi Lowde in 2005. He was previously hitched to makeup artist Ashlee Petersen from 1999 to 2000.
The actor has been spending much of his time behind the camera these days, directing multiple episodes of the CW's 90210 spinoff, but has yet to make any onscreen appearances.

Miley Cyrus Is Not a Kid Anymore; Her Knee-High Boots Prove It
Miley Cyrus is doing her favorite thing again: sexing it up in a magazine.
This time the August issue of Elle is her enabler. They want to prove that Miley is not a kid anymore. So they dressed the 16-year-old up like a real grown-up sexy lady, relying on stripper boots and push-up bras since the bedsheet-and-naked-shoulder thing didn't quite work out.
And Elle was winning the case for a minute. Kids don't dress in all this suggestive leather in the middle of the summer. Only sexy adults do, right? But then Miley talked and said silly-sounding kid stuff:
Update
Michael Jackson's Remains Viewed a Final Time
As it turns out, the one-gloved man was seen one last time.
As the Jackson family gathered at Forest Lawn Cemetery on Monday night before the big memorial, they viewed Michael Jackson's body in an open casket, People reports.
"He looked like himself," David Fossett, the star's cousin, told the magazine. "He looked like he just was laying there sleeping. He looked peaceful."
His final outfit, coordinated by sister La Toya Jackson and longtime stylist Michael Bush, included a specially made single glove, as E! News learned yesterday.
"[Relatives] talked to each other and cried," Fossett said. "It was a somber mood. Even though he's this big entertainer, he's still our family."
During the morning service, before the event at the Staples Center, the casket was closed and roses placed on top, Fossett said.
As for where said casket rests currently, the New York Post is reporting that the star's remains have been stashed in Motown man Berry Gordy's crypt in Forest Lawn while the family continues to debate M.J.'s final resting place.
UPDATE: This report turns out to be a tall tale. Gordy's rep tells E! News this is "not true."

Justin Timberlake: Stinkin' Up America, Too!
Is there anything Justin Timberlake can't—or won't—do? Seriously, every day we hear about something else the "SexyBack" crooner has attached himself to.
