Michael Jackson's Kids: Safe From Crazy Joe

Fans worried about Michael Jackson's kids after watching Katherine Jackson on Oprah need not worry. They will not suffer the child abuse their father did.
Katherine, Michael's mother and now the legal guardian of his children Prince Michael, Paris and Blanket, does not believe in physical discipline. Period.

Joe Jackson beat Michael and basically said he'd do it again, but Katherine corrects Paris, Prince and Blanket by talking to them. What a wild concept.

Prince, Paris and Blanket at the memorial service for Michael Jackson. The King of Pop was peerless musically, but felt his children were his greatest legacy.

Moreover, Katherine will not let Joe be involved in any disciplinary situations when it comes to the youngsters, so he won't lay a hand on MJ's kids.
Joe admitted to Oprah he whipped Michael with a strap, which he justified by saying that none of the couple's nine children had ever been to jail.
This wasn't exactly news, since his abusive past is common knowledge, but the bluntness and lack of regret was unsettling to many Michael fans.
In any case, it turns out discipline is not a high priority at the Jackson compound ... because Michael's kids are incredibly well-behaved anyway.

Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows world premiere in London: Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint...

 

Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint are all grown up as they draw to the end of their Harry Potter journey at the world premiere of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows in London.

Pink is Pregnant!

Pink is pregnant! Carey Hart is the dad! Congratulations to the married, expectant singer and her husband! It will be their first child together.
A source tells the new Us Weekly that "She's 12 weeks along ... she wanted to do it between tours, when she has some time off." Convenient!

Pink (real name Alecia Moore) is pregnant!

The source adds that after the duo’s well-documented 2008 separation, “Pink was determined to make the relationship solid. Now she’s happy."
"They're both really happy and she’s excited she got pregnant so fast! She’ll be a brilliant mother,” says the friend, and we believe it.
No word on whether the little bundle of joy is a boy or a girl, but we're predicting girl. You know, for the obvious color scheme involved.

Let's be really good friends, Pete....

Katie Price and Peter Andre have been locked in bitter feuds since they end of their marriage but they've planned a secret meeting to rebuild their friendship.
Katie, 32, wants to be pals and her ‘be nice to Pete' plan may already be starting to pay off.
When he dropped off their kids Junior, five, and Princess, three, after a family trip to Australia three weeks ago, he seemed pleased to talk to her.
Even though his Peter Andre: The Next Chapter film crew weren't allowed into their meeting, Pete returned to his car looking happier than ever.
‘Peter calls regularly to speak to the kids but Katie sees it as an opportunity to make him realise she isn't the woman who drove him to the edge towards the end of their relationship,' adds an insider.
‘She'll keep him on the phone for ages, talking about his career and what the kids have been up to.'
Despite repeatedly protesting that her marriage to Alex Reid is stronger than ever, it's clear that when Katie sat down to pen the dedication page of her latest autobiography, Alex wasn't on her mind - it was Peter.
Thanking him for turning her into an, ahem, butterfly is the clearest sign yet that she's still pining for him.
After their split, Peter lost nearly 3st and friends feared for his health. It seems he too has found it hard to move on.
In a recent interview, he revealed he still visits the marriage guidance counsellor the couple saw as they struggled to save their marriage.
His latest single Mercy On Me is a tribute to his ex, leading many to believe they're still not over each other.
All this might explain why Jordan was adamant that Alex couldn't join this year's line-up of I'm A Celebrity - Get Me Out Of Here!.
‘Katie told him he wouldn't be able to cope with the rations,' says our source, ‘but it's really because she sees that show as a memory of her and Peter - and having Alex appear on it may taint it.'
OK, Jordan, we get your point - you've got Pete on the brain!

Lindsay coming to a Bar Mitzvah near....

The fallen star is being forced to attend private events to earn cash

When a star such as Lindsay Lohan, 24, is forced to offer her services for birthday parties and Bar Mitzvah bashes, you know there's little hope of her regaining her former glory.
‘The idea of working at private parties for big cash has definitely come up recently,' an insider tells Now.
‘Lindsay keeps trying to resist but she's in a position where she needs to be doing this. Her people have been tempting her with figures of £31,000 for 30 minutes' work but she's said that if she has to speak or mingle with the crowd, she'll charge more.
'She may sing or present something - her people are considering anything to be honest.'
Lindsay's life has been one car crash after another. Let's not forget that she was sent to prison in July for failing to attend alcohol education classes after violating her probation on two 2007 drink-driving and cocaine possession charges.
Then, after failing a drug test, she was sent back to prison briefly in September and now she can't afford the fees at the Betty Ford rehab clinic she's staying at.
We're exhausted just writing about it!
‘Celebrities sometimes appear at private events but this will be Lindsay's main source of income,' an insider adds.
‘She's scared her reputation will be ruined - she has visions of standing next to a clown singing to primary school kids.
'But at the same time, she knows that to pay her rehab fees, which could cost over £32,000 until January, she has to swallow her pride.'
Well, if things get really tough, Linds, you can always come to our Christmas party. Just a thought.
