All right, all right, we agree that it was TOTALLY effed up, but nothing can be done now, so let's get off the press circuit and try to let it go, people!!

Friends of Farrah Fawcett are still up in arms about the late actress's Oscar snub this year and, despite a half-assed apology from Academy bosses, are still speaking out publicly about what they are calling "unforgivable!"

Alana Stewart Hamilton, a producer of the documentary Farrah's Story, says:

"I think they are saying they are sorry that family members and friends are upset. It is not just family members and friends. I said that to Mr. Davis, in all due respect, today. I said, it is millions of fans. The minute she was not part of that memorial, it started on Twitter. The emails I've gotten, people are outraged by it…I just want to make one point. In all due respect, Michael Jackson is a huge music icon, but I believe he only did one movie."

Candy Spelling - WTF? - is also not happy about the snub and says:

"I was very surprised. I also was surprised with Jean Barry and Bea Arthur. Bea Arthur was excluded. She was in at Annie Mame, with Lucille Ball, not the original one. She did another film or two. Because she was so well known as Maude and Golden Girls, they thought she was more television."

We honestly sympathize. But we think it's time to stop using this as an excuse to get press.

It sucks that they did it, but we think everyone just needs to go back to honoring Farrah's memory and eff the Academy.

What do U think?? Is it time to let Farrah's Oscar snub go??

Since the premature death of Corey Haim, information has been leaking out as to why the former child star began abusing prescription medication in the first place.

"I have a Michael Jackson problem," Haim said only weeks ago, referring to his longtime battle with insomnia. "I know I should be more careful, but I really need a boatload of drugs just so I can get to sleep for a few hours."

So sad.

Just another person who wants a piece of the $$$$!

The law firm of Venable LLP filed a $471,103.56 creditor claim against Michael Jackson's estate because of the alleged legal advice they dispensed to the King of Pop "on a broad spectrum of matters" from September 2006 to June 2009.

And you decide to bring it up now?!

[HMG] – In the first interview since their boss, Michael Jackson was found dead on June 25, his three bodyguards have recalled some truly sad times in the superstar’s life;

Prior to his untimely loss, the 50-year old Jackson was preparing a comeback in London. But before that he called a rented Las Vegas mansion his home, and the guards – Mike Garcia, Bill Whitfield and Javon “BJ” Beard – told ABC’s  ‘Good Morning America’ MJ’s favorite things were being with his children, cruising the strip and ordering fast food from a drive-thru.

But Jackson’s home life, they said, was ‘isolated and lonely.’ One example was a birthday party for one of the children. Only their teacher, their nanny and the three guards could attend – No other child was allowed.

The three were hired by Michael in 2007,  and the connection soon became close; “We were with Michael Jackson the person, not the entertainer,” said Garcia.

They also explained the surgical mask Michael so often wore was not to hide new surgery, it was just a disguise. But they never asked about it too much;

“He’s coming down with the kids and we can’t say, ‘What the hell you got on, sir?’” said Beard. “How could you ask him that?”

As for the children, the men described them as ‘polite and well-mannered,’ and the link between them and their dad as being very close;

“The kids were constantly saying, ‘I love you, Daddy’…They were like four buddies,” Garcia told the host.

But there were also moments of fun – Like when the three tried to trick their minders into getting them illicit Oreos.

“Sometimes they’d say things like, ‘Bill, Daddy wants you to go get some cookies for us,’” Whitfield recalled, grinning.

On more serious topics the men were asked if their boss ever behaved in a way that suggested the 2005 charges of child molestation against him were actually true. The reply was brief and emphatic — In unison, all three said “No.”

“Being a man…Men know men…And we were around him long enough to know – he was a man,” explained Whitfield.

The three said their boss had at least two girlfriends they knew of, and that they sometimes like chaperones for two teenagers on a first date.

“In the cars we had a curtain that covered the back seat…You couldn’t see in,” Whitfield said. “They talked back there…they didn’t do nothing out of bounds. You can hear all the kissing.”

Michael died on June 25 from a lethal, but apparently accidental mixture of prescription medications, plus the powerful anesthetic, Propofol. He was laid to rest on September 3rd at the Forest Lawn cemetery on Glendale, California.

His beloved children, meanwhile, now share a home with their grandma…

He's never going to stop ca$$$hing in on his brother's death!

Jermaine Jackson is planning another Michael Jackson tribute concert to be held in London marking the one year anniversary of his death.

The original tribute concert was to take place in Vienna, Austria, but it ended up being canceled. Jermaine booked Wembley Arena for June 8 for a "star-studded performance," but performers have yet to be revealed.

Jermaine explains, "The best way and most suitable way is to assemble the world's largest tribute in history that is only fitting to a man who moved the hearts and souls of an unimaginable amount."

Somehow we don't think that's Jermaine's true motive AT ALL!
