Huge Suit Over Jackson, Stones, Guns & Doors
The company that hawks all things related to Michael Jackson, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, Guns N' Roses, Led Zeppelin and Red Hot Chili Peppers is demanding untold millions from the businesses that are illegally cashing in -- allegedly.
Bravado International Group claims it has the exclusive right to the merchandise of these huge musicians -- dead and alive. Bravado claims Dollar Days International, Alan Shrem and Kennedy-Shrem International are illegally using the names and likenesses of Michael Jackson, Jim Morrison and the other musical luminaries in the sale of shirts, watches, posters, play money and other stuff.
The suit -- filed in federal court in Los Angeles and obtained by TMZ -- makes specific mention of Jackson's most memorable works, including "Thriller" and "Bad."
And speaking of bad, Bravado wants $2 million for each violation.

Chris Brown: You’ve Got Me All Wrong
While he's offered up numerous apologies, Chris Brown still thinks that people out there have the wrong idea about him - and he hopes he can clear things up.
"The steps that I've taken to show that I'm sorry probably have been perceived wrong," Brown tells during an interview on The Wendy Williams Show airing on Friday.
Reese Witherspoon: Undercover Salon Stop
Getting in a pampering session ahead of the weekend, Reese Witherspoon paid a visit to the Nelson J. Aveda Color Salon & Spa in Beverly Hills, California on Friday afternoon (November 13).
The "Legally Blonde" beauty did her best to go unnoticed, although she was spotted leaving the beauty spot while hiding her hair under her hooded sweatshirt as paparazzi snapped up shots.
Delay in Jackson Case -- The Ghost of OJ Read more:
Michael Jackson 's homicide investigation is taking longer than expected, because -- as one law enforcement source connected with the case said -- "We've had bad luck with big cases like OJ in the past, and we don't want to repeat those mistakes."
The source also pointed to the Robert Blake case, which some experts believe was also botched. But the source added, "There is not a problem with the case. Time is on our side. We want to do this right." The L.A. County D.A.'s office and the LAPD are working as a unit to "anticipate defense strategies and prepare for them." The D.A.'s office is actively involved, requesting lots of info from the LAPD.
One of the issues: authorities have keyed in on Applied Pharmacy in Las Vegas -- they want to make sure there are no other pharmacies that sent the Propofol in question to Dr. Conrad Murray.
Another issue: authorities have gone back to their medical experts for more input, as "strategies have changed" in a case they call "very complicated."
As for when the investigation will wrap: now authorities are saying they'd like to end it "before the Christmas holidays".... but that could get pushed to January.

Jessica Alba and Honor Marie: Right On Target
Venturing out for a pre-weekend shopping session, Jessica Alba and daughter Honor Marie Warren were spotted out at Target in West Hollywood on Friday (November 13).
Joined by a fellow female shopper, the trio of lovely ladies browsed the shops selections while loading up a cartful of purchases - looking a bit tuckered out after their retail excursion.
Marie Goes After Former Manager for $2 Mil
TMZ has obtained the legal papers, filed in the arbitration case between Marie and former manager P. Karl Engemann. Marie wants $2 million from Engemann for the damages she claims he caused her.
The legal docs assert that Engemann "tried to extort Osmond to pay more compensation to him...by defaming and disparaging Osmond to third parties."
Osmond claims Engemann derailed her plan for a talk show by bungling the negotiations. She also says he screwed up her negotiations with "Dancing with the Stars" and her Nutrisystems commercials.
In addition to the $2 mil, Marie wants punitive damages.

Is Johnny Depp Helping Nicolas Cage With His Debt?
What a good friend!
A source reveals:
"Johnny called Nic and basically told him not to worry and he'd help him and sort everything out. Johnny feels he owes his career to Nic and now wants to repay him — if Nic agrees."
The world actually owes Nic for introducing Johnny Depp to the world of acting thus letting us all appreciate his hotness!
Johnny was just a struggling musician when he met Nic back in the '80s. Nic set up a meeting with his agent for Johnny and that's how he landed his role on Nightmare on Elm Street!
The source also says that "Johnny has never forgotten what Nic did for him."
How sweet and generous of Johnny!
But will Nic swallow his pride and accept the gift? He should if he knows what's good for him!
