Before Michael Jackson passed away on June 25, his brothers filmed an hour long pilot for A&E that was supposed to include a reunion, but Michael died before he could discuss the possibility of appearing on the TV show.
However, sources tell
The Hollywood Reporter that A&E will go forward with not only the pilot, but several more episodes that show the Jackson brothers coping with Michael’s death, among other things. Though a rep for A&E declined to comment, sources close to the network say the deal for a series isn't done yet, but "the original A&E deal was a pilot with provisions for a series, so it’s going to happen."
Sources add that the pilot will be aired on A&E within the next month, so it should be fascinating to get an inside look at the Jackson family and how they are handling the loss of their brother, who happens to be one of the greatest entertainers that ever lived.

Even after all the drama this year (oh you know, beating his girlfriend to a bloody pulp, losing most of his contracts) Chris Brown is still able to get some famous faces to work with him. Last night we snapped the R&B singer shooting a music video with Omarion in Hollywood, and we're not sure if the "OOPS" necklace is some sort of apology, but it's certainly a very appropriate piece of bling for Chris, don't you think?

An impeccably dressed Gwen Stefani lunched at Boa in West Hollywood yesterday with some equally fashionable gal pals, and it looks like the singer was in the mood for some pictures! The ladies joked with photogs camped outside the restaurant, but we also snapped them taking pictures of themselves, so it appears as though they were in the mood to work it for the cameras!
So is white nail polish in for fall? Gwen certainly seems to think so!

We don't want to think about that, but it's one of the many topics that was covered on
Octomom: The Incredible Unseen Footage, which aired last night on Fox.
Nadya Suleman also talks about her 14 children, how the octuplets changed her life, how she's not a fame whore (sound
familiar?) and she even takes a stab at Kate Gosselin!
When asked about Kate, Nadya says, "Honestly, I'm not as attention seeking, probably never, it's just my opinion, but some people are desperate for attention." However, she does admit to making some major parenting mistakes, and while her own mother chastises her and says she can't "frivolously keep procreating," Nadya says, "I screwed up my life, and I screwed up my kids' lives...what the heck am I going to do...I have to put on a strong facade."
So what about the whole sex thing? Nadya reveals that she hasn't had sex in ten years, and she adds, "As time kept going on and on, and the more kids I have, the less I remembered what [sex] was like."
Well, at least we don't have to worry about someone accidentally knocking her up! But should she really be talking smack about Kate Gosselin?

The drama never stops for Lindsay Lohan!
As soon as the actress stepped out of a cab in NYC yesterday, she was nearly run over by a bicyclist! Thankfully Lilo is so teeny she was able to move out of the way, but the near
death collision experience looks like it scared the crap out of her!
After the incident, Lindsay and her BFF Patrick decided to indulge in a little retail therapy at INA as photogs waited outside, and considering the starlet nearly got run over, she sure seemed to cheer up quickly! I guess that's what shopping does for a girl?

First of all, we're totes jealous of her tan (not to mention that recent vacay), but check out the outfit Paris Hilton wore to The Grill yesterday afternoon! It's like she traveled back in time and stole it from Jackie O's closet, and we mean that as a compliment! From the flattering fit to the beautiful shade of Tiffany blue, we'd totally wear this dress!
Hmm, speaking of Tiffany & Co., think Doug will be getting her anything sparkly for Christmas this year? It's only 4 months away, so at the very least, he better be thinking about it!

At first we thought he was trying to copy
Brad Pitt, but now it's clear who Justin Timberlake is trying to emulate...
Justin Bobby! From the fancy bike to the silver helmet, it looks like the former 'N Syncer wants to head to
The Hills! Okay, maybe not, but what's with JT's sudden fascination with being photographed on a hog?
Hey, he may be a little late to jump on the motorcycle trend, but who cares...he looks dead sexy with that chrome covered ride between his legs!
