Debbie Rowe Pulls Out of Jackson Memorial, Attacks Paparazzi

Debbie Rowe, the onetime wife of the late popstar Michael Jackson and mother to two of his three children, has pulled out of her ex-husband’s memorial service at the last minute.

The former nurse originally said she would attending the service, which is being held at the Staples Centre in Los Angeles on Tuesday; however, a representative for Rowe has revealed that she has since declined her invitation.

“Although Debbie had originally planned to attend tomorrow’s Staples Center memorial service, we have concluded with Debbie that she will not be attending,” her rep said in a statement. “The onslaught of media attention has made it clear her attendance would be an unnecessary distraction to an event that should focus exclusively on Michael’s legacy. Debbie will continue to celebrate Michael’s memory privately.”

According to several sources, Rowe’s decision to not attend the day-long service stems from an altercation she had with photographers on Sunday. Jackson’s ex-wife was leaving a Chinese restaurant near her home when she allegedly yelled at the paparazzi, “Are you ready to get your butt kicked? Don’t f***ing touch me!”

West Escapes Felony Charge

Kanye West has escaped a felony charge in his incident with the paparazzi at LAX, after Los Angeles prosecutors decided not to file charges in the vandalism case.

At this point in time, the prosecutors are “undecided” as to whether or not they will push forward with misdemeanor charges, but even if they do, West’s high-profile celebrity status should help pull him out of the shit.

West was arrested on September 11 for smashing a photographer’s still camera after the paparazzo attempted to take his picture at the airport. His attack was caught on camera by another paparazzo, and released to the internet shortly after the incident took place.

Britney Spears Bikini Paparazzi Candids

We haven’t seen Britney Spears in a bikini for a while now and probably for good reason.

Previous sitings of Britney in her bikini resulted in the mobilization hundreds of people with shovels and buckets of water. At least now she has slimmed down somewhat. She still has those chunky kankles though.

Britney’s Paparazzi Frenzy in L.A.

Britney Spears returned home to Los Angeles on Friday to a swarm of waiting paparazzi at the exit ramps of the airport, all wanting to get information on her new little niece.

Spears’ group – which consisted of the Toxic singer, her assistant Brett, father Jamie and a number of bodyguards – were swamped by photographers as they made their way down a terminal escalator. Father Jamie was forced to push the pesky paparazzi out the way so they could exit the airport. During the scuffle, Britney was bumped several times.

A few hours earlier, the pop star had said a tearful goodbye to her sister, Jamie Lynn, who had just given birth to daughter Maddie Briann the day before.

Eyewitnesses who shared the flight from New Orleans to L.A. with Spears said the singer looked less than happy, and spent most of the trip sleeping with her dark sunglasses on.

“Britney didn’t seem happy and was mostly resting,” fellow passenger Meredth Wood said. “She kept her sunglasses on for most of the flight.”

Jealousy at her sister’s media attention, or just sad to leave Jamie Lynn and her new niece alone in Louisiana?
