Katherine Jackson May File Wrongful Death Suit

While the dust seems to have finally settled on Michael Jackson and his family after the singer’s June 25 death, his mother Katherine is reportedly mulling over filing a wrongful death suit in connection with the singer’s fatal cardiac arrest.

If a wrongful death suit is filed, it will more than likely be against Dr. Murray, who has admitted to injecting Jackson with the powerful hospital-grade anesthetic drug Propofol just hours before the singer suffered a heart attack and died.

Katherine Jackson’s lawyer, Burt Levitch, said in a statement today:

“The possibility of a wrongful death action has been floated. In that regard, no decision has been finalized.

“Dr. Murray’s name has been floated [as a possible defendant in the potential lawsuit] because he is under investigation.”

At this stage in the investigation into Jackson’s death, his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, is still the prime suspect in any manslaughter charges that may be brought against those medicos who had provided the King of Pop with dangerous anesthetics to use in his home.

Twilight Nudity Scandal

Everybody’s favourite female vampire, Alice – aka Ashley Greene – is feeling a bit sheepish this morning, after nude photos of the young actress somehow found their way to the internet.

The Twilight star is now threatening legal action against those who publish the naked shots, with Greene’s lawyer releasing a statement to the media a short time ago:

“The photos in question, which appear to be of our client, are illegal and are being unlawfully displayed. Our client intends to take legal action.”

Since we here at Staralicious.com don’t particularly want to have a lawsuit slapped against us, we’ll link you to those who’ve already posted the shots instead. So, if you want to see Ashley Green in the nuddie, click here.

At least Greene can be satisfied that she’s now joined the young Hollywood elite, in the same club as nude scandal regulars Vanessa Hudgens and Miley Cyrus (both Disney stars). Who knows: maybe she’ll get a gig in the next Disney movie, now that she’s flashed some skin?

Lindsay Lohan Sued Over Fake Tan Spray

Lindsay’s Lohan’s legal team are busy again with yet another lawsuit being slapped against the troubled actress.

This time around it’s not her driving or her consumption of alcohol that has led her into hot water, but her claims that she and her Las Vegas business partner, Lorit Simon, invented a new form of tanning spray together.

According to Florida chemist Jennifer Sunday – the woman behind Lohan’s latest suing – Lohan and Simon stole the formula for the spray from her.

Simon and the Mean Girls star launched their new tanning spray line, Sevin Nyne, in May this year, and both told media outlets that it had taken them “three years” to create it.

Lies, insists Ms. Sunday, who is now suing Lohan, Simon, and Simon’s company for “breach of contract, theft of trade secrets, civil conspiracy, intentional interference with contractual relations” and “deceptive and unfair trade practices.”

Sunday’s lawyer, Marcia Cohen, released a statement on her client’s behalf, confirming that they will be seeking the full monetary profits from any of Sevin Nyne’s sales.

“We are certainly looking for the profits that are being generated right now from that product,” Cohen told the Times. “If Ms. Lohan and Ms. Simon and their companies and their shareholders are profiting from the theft of my client’s formula and are profiting from that product, my client is entitled to those proceeds.”

Lohan’s rep has so far avoided any calls to comment on the lawsuit.

Sam Lutfi Bites Back

Recently served Sam Lutfi has started to bite back against Britney Spears, filing a lawsuit against Brit and her parents claiming they began a campaign of slander, libel and defamation aimed as discrediting, destroying and physically and emotionally intimidating him in order to drive him out of her life.

Sounds about right.

I think anything that gets this guys tentacles out of her life and business affiars is a worthwhile move; she wasn’t exactly doing all that well under his command. [Source]

Lindsay Offered Free Blonde Mink

A New York club owner who’s pro-Lohan has offered to settle the unfortunate mess made by the ’stolen mink coat’ debacle, and is even willing to throw a free mink into the deal!

John Englebert, owner of NYC hotspots Prime and Suzie Wong, is disgusted at the “spoilt brat” behaviour of Masha Markova (the ’stolen’ mink’s rich owner) and wants to help Lindsay out by settling the lawsuit Markova has slapped on the Mean Girls star.

As well as fixing up the suit, Englebert is prepared to give Lohan a brand new $11,000 blonde mink coat – just like the one she allegedly took by mistake – for free!

How could LiLo say no to that?
