Debbie Rowe Wants Custody of Jackson’s Children

Michael Jackson’s former wife Debbie Rowe has reportedly decided to fight for custody of her two children, Prince Michael Jr. and Paris, whom she carried for the popstar in exchange for a large sum of money.

“I want my children,” Ms Rowe said. “I am stepping up… I have to.”

The reason Rowe has chosen to take the battle to court has to do with Jackson’s appointed guardians for the children – his mother Katherine Jackson, soon to be 80, and close friend Diana Ross, who the children have never met. Rowe is also concerned at the level of Joe Jackson’s involvement in the children’s lives, after the King of Pop accused his father of abuse years ago.

However, there’s a lot of obstacles for the nurse and onetime wife of the pop superstar to overcome, not the least of which is the rumours that she’s not the biological mother of the two eldest Jackson children. Rowe has said that she is willing to submit to any testing, including DNA, to prove that she is their biological mother.

Another of the many obstacles includes Rowe’s 2001 petition to give up her parental rights over the children, in exchange for a house and millions of dollars in cash. Rowe later “reversed her decision” and secured herself visitation rights, but legal experts say this could severly hinder any chance she may or may not have to win custody.

Lindsay Lohan Sam Ronson Fist Fight

The ongoing saga of Lindsay Lohan and Sam Ronson’s relationship has taken a violent turn over the New Year period, with reports of violent fist fights.

Spending New Year in Miami, where Sam was DJing, the pair reportedly got into a fight on Tuesday night before ramping it up for Wednesday’s rematch.

The happy couple got into a fight at the end of Sam’s set, before taking it outside to a back alley.

A reportedly unstable Lindsay was screaming at Sam, saying that when she (Lindsay) storms off, Sam is supposed to follow her. I think someone needs her blanky…

The pair began to punch each other to the amazement of the watching crowd.

At one point Lindsay dropped to her knees, asking Sam why she was doing this to her.

Guests at the hotel, where the pair where staying complained of crashing sounds and shouts coming from their room, before hotel security were called, taking photographic evidence of the damage caused to the room, which was a complete mess.

As expected, Lindsay’s rep says that everything is fine between the pair, which may be believable, if it wasn;t for another fight they got into at Miami airport.

They started arguing in the American Airlines Admirals Club, with the bad blood continuing on the flight. As is standard now with this pair, the drama involved a lot of crying, drama and hysterics.

Poor dears…..

Vinnie Jones Got Glassed

Someone decided Vinnie Jones’ hard man looks, weren’t quite hard enough when they tried to do some on the spot plastic surgery to his face with a beer glass.

This is Jones’ version of events in Sioux Falls, South Dakota:

“We were having a laugh with a group of lads whose girlfriends I was doing pictures for,’ the X-Men star told The Sun. ‘They started having a joke about my films. The next thing I knew I was on the ground with a glass in my face.”

Jones, who needed 48 stitches to the wounds on his face retaliated, by punching the other guy in the face.

A plastic surgeon was flown from Los Angeles to treat the actor, removing broken glass from under his skin. ‘I’m just glad the plastic surgeon did a brilliant job,’ Jones said.

However, Police did not see the brawl going down the same way, resulting in Jones being charged with assault, after accusing him of starting the fight, claiming Jones charged at a customer named as 24-year-old Jesse Bickett, at Wiley’s Tavern after a dispute over a game of pool and the man hit him with a glass.

“It was a verbal argument that escalated to pushing and shoving and then a bar brawl.”

A friend of Bickett, who was arrested for aggravated assault, claimed Jones got offended after someone called him ‘that guy from X-Men’ after he asked to join their pool game.

You are either very brave, or very stupid to get in a fight with Vinnie Jones, but if you are going to do it, at least have the guts to fight, not try and blind someone with glass to the face.

Boyzone In Drunken Brawl With Rihanna’s Band

Boyzone has been keeping up the good old Irish tradition of having a night on the drink, occasionally followed by a drunken brawl, this time with members of Rihanna’s band during their Australian tour.

It seems members of Rihanna’s crew were a little sensitive about a member of Boyzone chatting with a girl in Rihanna’s group.

Turns out the girl’s boyfriend felt a bit threatened and decided to settle the matter with his fists.

Boyzone were a little unsteady on their feet, after going on a pub crawl with close friend, former Westlife singer Brian McFadden, who now lives in Sydney with girlfriend Delta Goodrem.

“The boys held their own despite being unsteady on their feet. Security came and broke it up. They all got a stern talking to.”

Singer Stephen had this to say:

“Well, we did get into a fight – certainly more than a difference of opinion. We are keeping up that fine image of the Irish and too much alcohol.

“It was over a girlfriend of one of Rihanna’s band members. We just wanted to chat and be friendly and this guy tried to rough us up.”

“It was his girl and then all the other guys from the band started getting fresh with us – so it was on there and then.”

Underwood Calls Simpson “Fat”

American Idol winner Carrie Underwood has drawn first blood in her bitter fight with country music rival, Jessica Simpson, dissing the busty blonde’s singing ability and her apparent weight gain.

A pal of Underwood’s told OK! magazine: “[Carrie] finds Jessica’s love of putting her life on display pretty desperate.”

When Underwood saw Jessica’s new cover story with People magazine – the one where she gushes about how Tony Romo (Carrie’s ex) is the love of her life – things got even cattier.

“[Underwood] laughed at the People cover,” the friend explained, “because it’s the same one Jess did about John Mayer [back when they were "in love"] – same smile, same look, except she’s a little fatter.”

Ouch! And that’s not all the Idol singer had to say about her bustier rival!

“Carrie doesn’t think fans will spend money to watch Jess warble through a few badly written songs,” Underwood’s pal added.

I’d tend to agree with that last part…

The Truth Behind Christian Bale’s Rage

It looks like the Daily Mail has managed to dig up the real reason for Christian Bale’s rage fueled attack on his mother and sister.

Various reason have been put forward for the attack, including Christian’s pent up anger at his stage mum, to her dislike of his wife, but now it seems the reason was much more mundane; his sister put the squeeze on him for money.

It seems, Bale’s sister tried to tap him for a $200,000 loan to help raise her children.

Christian wasn’t too keen on the idea, allegedly pushing and shoving his sister, Sharon and his mother Jenny, 61, during a row in his suite at the Dorchester Hotel.

Christian’s mother, Jenny, then made some less than flattering comments about Christian’s wife, Sibi, which added further fuel to the fire.

Christian’s excuse is that he would normally call a friend and hit the piss when he felt like this, but he was trapped and forced into this confrontation because of the paparazzi outside his $12,000 per night hotel.

Yep, life’s a bitch when you have to fork out $12,000 a night to sleep, but cannot help your sister and her children out with a loan that would cost you no more then 16 nights sleep.

LC And Audrina’s Backyard Fight

Things have been getting tense between the two for a while, but TMZ reports that the bitching has ratcheted up another notch.

LC came home to find Audrina in the middle of a photo shoot in the backyard, which really pissed Lauren off, because she had arranged an exclusive deal with a competing magazine.

LC blew the top off the hissy fit jar, stomping her feet and all the tricks, which was funny, because Audrina had gotten approval for the shoot from LC’s manager.

They will have to redo the argument for the cameras sometime in the next couple of days, as who would want to miss riveting television like that.

Trouble in Paradise?

Lindsay Lohan and her BFF, DJ Sam Ronson, may not be as “tight” as they once were, with sources claiming the pair had a “full-blown fight” recently that left LiLo in tears.

A source has revealed that the fight took place a few nights ago at West Hollywood’s Crown Bar, where Ronson was deejaying.

“They had a full-blown fight,” the source explained. “Evan Ross, Diana’s son, and Lauren Conrad [from The Hills] comforted her while Lindsay kept wiping her tears.”

Maybe Sam was jealous of Lindsay’s flirtatious relationship with Joel Madden??
