The Death of Michael Jackson & The Prosecution of Dr. Conrad Murray

"All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances;"- from William Shakespeare's 'As You Like It'.
These are the people involved in the drama of Michael Jackson's death and as Kanye West likes to say, "Lets play the blame game."
There is the prosecution, the defense team for Dr. Conrad Murray under the leadership of J.Michael Flanagan, the long suffering matriarch of the Jacksons, Katherine and her son Jackie Jackson helping her to the car, The Justice for MJ group that attends religiously the court case and you have a representative of TMZ.
Covering stories is not easy. There is alot of waiting, dealing with the cold, getting up early or staying up late. Also sometimes there is a dead body right next to you which happened earlier in the morning on Tuesday before the court proceedings.

Comcast NBC Merger: The Death of The Peacock

Correct me if I'm wrong but back in the last century, it used to be against the law to have a monopoly in business. "The Sherman Antitrust Act, passed in 1890, declared that no person or business could monopolize trade or could combine or conspire with someone else to restrict trade" and
"In 1914, Congress passed two more laws designed to bolster the Sherman Antitrust Act: the Clayton Antitrust Act and the Federal Trade Commission Act. The Clayton Antitrust Act defined more clearly what constituted illegal restraint of trade. The act outlawed price discrimination that gave certain buyers an advantage over others; forbade agreements in which manufacturers sell only to dealers who agree not to sell a rival manufacturer's products; and prohibited some types of mergers and other acts that could decrease competition. The Federal Trade Commission Act established a government commission aimed at preventing unfair and anti-competitive business practices." via About.com derived from U.S. Department of State.
With the merger of Comcast and NBC troubling issues arise regarding net neutrality, censorship of news information due to corporations and advertisers relationships as well as how information is sent and the speed.
Time will tell what kind of changes the cable company Comcast will impose on NBC and its effects. One thing that will end is the symbol of the Peacock as the main focal point on the company. According to reports, the Peacock will be replaced by NBCUniversal for the Corporate Logo and the peacock will be used for broadcast TV logos such as in the photo above.

Gnomeo & Juliet: Stars Shine at Hollywood Premiere

So many stars so little time to photograph all of them. Matt Lucas of 'Little Britain', David Copperfield, Gavin, Kingston and Zuma Rossdale, Emily Blunt, James McAvoy, Patrick Stewart and Elton John (didn't get a clear shot unfortunately) all and more were out and about on the carpet for Disney's Gnoemo & Juliet.

Austin Visschedyk: Teenage Paparazzo Going To Be Big In Japan

I bumped into Austin who is great at what he does. He told me he wrecked his ride and was driving a rental because he was chasing a story and going too fast over a pot hole or a rail. Anyway, Austin Visschedyk also said that he was going to Japan for the screening of his documentary that Adrian Grenier directed called 'Teenage Paparazzo'. Austin was smoking a cigarette when I asked him about that he said, "Smoking isn't bad for you." I like Austin, he is a cocky kid but he is an excellent shooter. Sometimes when you have talent for something you outshine others in your wake and you create haters. However you are still driven to do what you do. I asked Austin awhile back if he was doing drugs. Teenagers are going to do what they do.Here is the video.

Boris Kodjoe: New Day New Deal

Tila Tequila Says She Sober While ExPal Kristian Otto Herzog Is In Play for Mel Gibson

According to a story running on Radar Online, Tila Tequila wants to change her last name to Wynn. Tila feels her old self is "dead". Tila Wynn also went on to say that she is getting help from her doctors to deal with the multiple drug/alcohol and psychological issues that she had/has.
Meanwhile her exPal and play bodyguard Kristian Otto Herzog has been subpoenaed by Mel Gibson's team of lawyers in his battle against his former lover and baby's mama Oksana Grigorieva. According to TMZ, Oksana now is no friend of her former "friend"/"confidante"/play bodyguard.
Herzog never signed a confidentiality contracting like most real body guards do when they work for professional clients. So with that major mistake, Oksana has left herself wide open for all communications between herself and Kristian Otto Herzog to be under the scrutiny of the court. The battle between Oksana and Mel Gibson almost seems never ending. Herzog claimed he had a relationship with Oksana. Meanwhile Oksana denies this. Interesting connection with Tila Tequila and Oksana is Herzog befriended them gave his services as a "bodyguard" for publicity and gathered information on both women, according to insiders who knew Herzog's mode of operation. He befriends celebrities, offers his services for free and then uses the information to sell to tabloids or to "whitemale" (as I like to say) them at a later time. Tila and Kristian had a falling out. No doubt Herzog knows a lot about Tila Wynn (Tequila). What will also be interesting is to see what will happened with the battle between Garry Sun and Tila case. Was it all a farce for media attention because Garry is involved with a TV pilot? Or was the stalemate real? The sad thing is it seems like at least 3 players got what they wanted in this more attention but at what cost?

Golden Voice Ted Williams Quits Rehab

One goes in and another goes out, Ted Williams according to reports has quit rehab much to the chagrin of Dr. Phil.

Maybe Ted's past mistakes haunted him to the point he wanted to go back to the comfort of what he knew. Only Ted Williams knows. Time will tell what becomes of Williams the man with the golden voice...

Bruce Lee, Tony Jaa, Jet Li & Jackie Chan; Who Would Win A Fight?

With one of my favorite martial artists releasing Ong Bak 3 in the United States last week, Tony Jaa as well as Anne Hathaway being cast as the latest Catwoman in The Dark Knight Rises, it was only natural to have Hollywood Spiderman and Venom give me their views on who would win a fight between Bruce Lee, Tony Jaa, Jet Li and Jackie Chan. Another coincidence is Spider-Man Reboot with the Social Network star Andrew Garfield has been shooting in Los Angeles.
