Ironically he has the kind of face Michael seems to be trying to mould himself into. Kind of pixie-like.

Even as singer Chris Brown faces two felony charges for his alleged brutal beating of girlfriend and fellow music superstar Rihanna, I've learned his management team is working feverishly on a plan to turn around his fast-sinking career options. <snip> Before Brown loses any more endorsements or movie deals, a plan is in place to rehabilitate his badly tarnished image. ''The only way Chris can possibly reverse things is to come clean and help raise awareness about abusive relationships,'' said a source close to Brown's legal time. Along those lines, I've learned Brown and Rihanna -- who has taken him back (but with key provisions outlined below) -- will co-author a book about abuse and go on a talk show whirlwind to speak directly to their fans and the general public. It is widely expected that Brown's high-profile attorney, Mark Geragos, will broker a probation deal for his client that will involve no jail time. In the meantime, the Brown team's working title of his career-recovery plan is ''Project Mea Culpa.'' It will involve not only Brown's telling of his increasingly abusive behavior toward Rihanna, but also partnering with clinical experts in the field to add credibility to the couple's efforts. ''Obviously this is a public relations campaign, but it only will work if there's genuine healing, contrition and a path to preventing future problems. ... It's another example of trying to turn a bad situation into something good ... where people can learn to change habits,'' said the source. • Part of the deal involves a contractual agreement between Rihanna and Brown. Word has it, the alleged abuser has agreed to pay Rihanna ''as much as $10 million'' and possibly more ''if he as much as squeezes her arm the wrong way,'' said the Brown insider. link <100><fixed link> Unbelievable!!

Can't say I'm surprised, Maris. Probably the one who will come out of this looking nothing short of STUPID during their "talk show whirlwind" is Rhianna, as he discusses his escalating abuse towards her, and she'll have to explain why she stayed and worse, why she went back to him after he almost killed her. As for the $10M provision? Cringe at the tackiness of that. He needs to go to jail and she needs to quietly go away too.

I dont know where her people are at but it doesn't look like anyone is helping her. Have you seen the Oprah clip?? link According to the TMZ editor Harvey whatever his name is, on reliable sources on CNN this morning he said that there are other worse photos out there with her face all blown up with swelling. That is why he said Brown is going to take a deal, the photos are just too damaging before a jury.

I was happy to see that Oprah was not taking the defense of Chris Brown. She was very much "If he hit you once, he WILL hit you again." I hope her show next week hits home to some. The whole thing is so sick.

but also partnering with clinical experts in the field to add credibility to the couple's efforts Unless Chris Brown is in serious counseling (and not just publicly "partnering" with "clinical experts," I agree with Oprah: "If he hit you once, he WILL hit you again." }

I am really disappointed that Nickelodeon is not removing Chris Brown from contention in their Kids' Choice Awards. I think, given the circumstances, it would be a better message to send to take him off the ballot.

Tell me about it, Hermi. Enough of "supporting him" already. Are these people spineless or what?

'Funky cool' for late teens early twenties...yes. For a 40 year old matron not so much. After 30ish it starts looking just plain silly.

have you heard the latest? Rihanna and Chris Brown are recording a duet. Also TMZ is reporting friction between the Brown and Rihanna camps, with Brown camp trying to get a photo of the two together to post on web. Rihanna camp doesnt want the two seen together and they think that her staying with him will hurt her career. Also, calls are increasing for Nickleodeon to disqualify Brown from the kids choice awards. Brown continues to ask for votes on his website.

Some very scary photos of Patrick Swayze on the front page of the National Enquirer. He looks very frail. (link is to Perez Hilton) http://perezhilton.com/2009-03-11-heartbreaking-4

http://www.tmz.com/2009/03/11/chris-brown-withdraws-from-kids-choice-awards/ Chris Brown is officially letting Nickelodeon off the hook, and taking himself off the list of nominees at the upcoming Kids' Choice Awards. In a statement, his rep says: "Chris very much appreciates the support of his fans and the honor they have paid him in the way of nominations for Favorite Male Singer and Favorite Song. Unfortunately, the controversy surrounding the incident last month has shifted the focus from the music to whether he should be allowed to be among those nominated. While Chris would like to speak to his fans directly about this and other issues, pending legal proceedings preclude his doing so at this time. Once the matter before him has been resolved, he intends to do so."

I understand that Patrick's true fans and people who care about him want to know how he is doing but it seems so exploitive to publish pictures like that. I'm not a fan of Perez Hilton or The Enquirer. (Just to be clear, I have no problem with someone providing a link to Perez Hilton)

Mandy Moore and rocker Ryan Adams have wed, reps for both stars confirm to Usmagazine.com. They tied the knot Tuesday in Savannah, Georgia, adds the reps. The secret wedding should come as no surprise. After confirming her engagement to Adams in February, Moore said she wanted the wedding to be "less ... of a big deal."

Bristol Palin and her fiancé Levi Johnston have broken up, two sources tell PEOPLE. The split happened "a few weeks ago," according to a source close to the couple, but it's unclear what precipitated it. "It was a mutual thing," adds the source. Bristol, the 18-year-old daughter of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, spoke with FOX News in February and told Greta Van Susteren that she and Levi – who are parents to 2-month-old son, Tripp – expected to get married after they completed high school. "It kind of just happened," says the source, referring to the split. "I thought they would stick it out. But I think they can work together to raise Tripp." "I'm not sure what caused [them to break up] – it's common knowledge," says another source who knows the family. Despite the breakup, Levi still sees the couple's son. Levi's dad, Keith Johnston, told PEOPLE recently that his son is a devoted and "proud father." Plans for the Future Bristol, meanwhile, is attending Wasilla High, taking a class to supplement course work she is completing at home. She also is considering enrolling in college next fall and studying nursing. Bristol has been spotted around Wasilla shopping and exercising. She recently returned from Juneau where she was visiting her mother, who is spending the winter in the state's capital with daughter Piper and son Trig during the legislative session. As for how she is holding up after the split, the source tells PEOPLE: "Bristol's doing okay. Tripp is fine." Representatives for Gov. Palin have not returned calls for comment.

Anne Heche is letting her classical training show. The actress has given birth to a son, her second, who joins older brother Homer with a name borrowed from ancient Greece. Atlas Heche Tupper was born over the weekend and weighed 6 lbs., 12 oz., the actress's rep tells PEOPLE. "They are ecstatic," the rep says of the new parents. Heche and the boy's father, actor James Tupper, met on the set of ABC's Men in Trees and began dating in 2007. They announced they were expecting in December last year. Heche's other son, Homer, 7, is from her marriage to Coley Laffoon, which officially ended Wednesday.
