After Going "Through Hell and Back," Brooke Moving Back in With Charlie
If Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller are going to reconcile, they're going to need some privacy.
Saying his client got "everything she wanted today," Mueller's attorney, Yale Galanter, tells E! News that the couple plan to return to their Los Angeles home.
"Brooke's desire was to get the order modified so they could have contact and communicate because of their children," the attorney said. "Judge Boyd was gracious enough to grant that and now Charlie and Brooke are on their way back to L.A. to continue their lives."
Sheen and Mueller have not cohabitated since a temporary restraining order was put in place following Sheen's arrest for allegedly attacking his wife on Christmas Day.
"We need to give them a chance to be alone and catch up on everything that has happened over the last couple of months," Galanter said. "We'll see what happens."
So far, all we know is that Sheen's camp has to come up with a legal strategy.
Jay Explains Reconnecting With Dave: "He Found Me on Facebook"
While there's a more detailed explanation as to how Jay Leno ended up spending 30 whole minutes with David Letterman last week, Jay is peddling this romanticized version.
"As you know, I watched the game with Oprah and Letterman," Leno told one of his few remaining Jay Leno Show audiences Monday, addressing the blink-and-miss-it Late Show ad that aired during the Super Bowl.
"We all watched together. Letterman and I hadn't seen each other in over 18 years. We lost touch. He found me on Facebook. He made a friend request, I accepted, and we hooked up and watched the game."
"In fact, the commercial went so well," Leno continued, "Dave and I have decided to go to Vancouver and compete in the two-man luge."
Now that we'd bump Conan to see.

Michael Jackson's Parents Fume, Say Conrad Murray "Killed Him"
Michael Jackson's family watched as Dr. Conrad Murray faced a manslaughter charge today. And they've already rendered their verdict.
"He's lying. He's guilty. Nobody was there but him," mother Katherine Jackson told reporters after Murray entered a not-guilty plea.
"He's just trying to save his own behind," she added. "He killed him. He wasn't monitoring him."
"I didn't like today's hearing at all," dad Joe Jackson exclusively told E! News. "I just want justice done and that was not justice."
La Toya Jackson, meanwhile, thinks the proceedings are going to get even more complicated in the future.

Conrad Murray Pleads Not Guilty to Michael Jackson Manslaughter
UPDATE (4:34 p.m.): Murray has been released on $75,000 bail.
____________
Conrad Murray already entered his plea in the court of public opinion. Today, he reiterated his claim of innocence in a more official forum.
Just hours after he was formally charged with involuntary manslaughter in Michael Jackson's death, and in front of many Jackson family members, the physician pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor count that could land him up to four years in prison, if convicted.
The long-awaited arraignment took place at the Airport Branch of Los Angeles Superior Court around 2 p.m.—about 45 minutes after Murray arrived to screams of "murderer" and "justice for Michael" from Jackson fans, many sporting red, sequined armbands.

Charlie Sheen Faces Felony for Wife Attack
The sheen may be off the marriage, but Sheen's not yet off the hook.
Charlie Sheen and Brooke Mueller appeared this afternoon in an Aspen court, where the actor was formally charged with three counts for his alleged Christmas Day knife-wielding attack on his wife.
Sheen was rung up on suspicion of felony menacing, misdemeanor third-degree assault and misdemeanor criminal mischief. He did not immediately enter a plea.
Due to a protective order issued in the wake of the incident, the duo had been barred from contacting each other—though not from seeing each other. But at the request of the reconciliation-seeking couple, the judge relaxed that order during today's hearing.

Jackson Family Prepares to Face Off With Michael's Doctor
Facing screams of "murderer" from fans of Michael Jackson, Dr. Conrad Murray arrived just moments ago to the courthouse to face a manslaughter count in the King of Pop's death.
Sporting a beige suit—but not handcuffs—Murray was escorted by a cadre sheriff's deputies into Judge Keith L. Schwartz's courtroom to be arraigned on this misdemeanor count.
Dozens of Jackson supporters waited outside to get into the courtroom, many wearing red, sequined armbands in Michael's memory.
Also on hand: Jackson's parents, Joe and Katherine, and siblings Jermaine, Tito, Randy and La Toya. Most of the family was clad in black, with dark sunglasses.
The hearing is expected to get started any minute now.

Britney Spears Not Rushed to Hospital
Britney watchers can breathe easy.
Despite reports that Spears was "rushed" to the hospital today, her rep tells E! News she was simply there for a routine checkup.
"Everything is fine," says Spears' rep. "Britney is there for an annual physical."
Photogs claimed Brit-Brit was accompanied to UCLA Medical Center's Mattel Children's Hospital earlier today by two cars and a police escort.
And Perez Hilton had the Twitter world in a tizzy when he posted: "I'm hearing that @BritneySpears is in the emergency room right now. Hope it's nothing major and everything is okay! Maybe her kids?"
Imagine that, the blogosphere blowing something out of proportion.

Michael Jackson Doctor Charged With Manslaughter in Singer's Death
The doctor is in...a big heaping wad of trouble.
After spending the past eight months since Michael Jackson's death building a case—and the past week playing will-they, won't-they with the public—Los Angeles prosecutors finally believe they have enough evidence to lay the blame on Dr. Conrad Murray.
Not to mention finally managing to keep a court date.
The district attorney formally filed a misdemeanor count of involuntary manslaughter against Murray today, blaming Jackson's personal physician with overmedicating the star with the powerful anesthetic propofol. The charge carries a maximum of four years in prison.
