O.J. To Stay … Behind Bars: Simpson had put in bid to be freed from prison.

*Sorry O.J. Simpson, but you’re not going home anytime soon. That’s because a court in Nevada has denied Simpson’s request to be let out on bail as he appeals his kidnap and robbery conviction.

The former NFL star-turned-actor is serving a minimum of nine years in prison after he was found guilty of masterminding a heist on two sports memorabilia dealers’ hotel room in September 2007. He was convicted in December.

Simpson filed an appeal in May, claiming judicial misconduct, a lack of racial diversity on the jury and errors in sentencing and jury instructions.

Michael Jackson Finally At Rest and Under Lockdown

Michael Joseph Jackson is getting some much needed and earned peace today. Yesterday, he was laid to rest during an evening service in the Great Mausoleum in Glendale, Calif.

Mausoleum … yeah … Mausoleum. Something about the King of Pop being in a Mausoleum just sounds morbid. Yes, heÂ’s dead, but his energy will never die.

In this ”mausoleum” he’s surrounded by some of America’s most classic actors of the movie industry: Clark Gable, W.C. Fields, Erroll Flynn, Spencer Tracey, and Humphrey Bogart to name a few. And maybe he’s happy with that, but with the exception of Sammy Davis, Jr., he’s the most fun that place has seen in eons. I don’t mean any harm, but being surrounded by “classic” white men that are long before Michael Jackson’s era of super stardom might make me flinch just a little bit.

But, youÂ’ll be happy to know that the place is locked down tight. People who even own plots in the place arenÂ’t allowed to just tour and walk around loitering. No way. They have cameras and guards and a full pat down for visitors as well as plot holders. The place is a regular Fort Knox.

New ‘Jerkin’ Dance Craze Gets A Movie (Video)

Extract

Close your eyes while watching Extract and you might mistake it for a cartoon. That’s the beauty behind all of director Mike Judge’s films: The creator of Beavis and Butt-Head deals mostly in archetypes, sometimes outrageous ones, giving his characters just enough humanity to keep us watching.

Jamie Foxx says he continues to feel effects of PCP spiked drink long after it happened.

*Jamie Foxx recently revealed an incident during his teen years in which his drink was spiked with a drug that left him nearly comatose.

While studying music at United States International University, the Oscar-winner was attending a dorm room party when he started to feel strange. He quickly realized his drink had been spiked by an acquaintance, and his senses began to shut down as the drug took hold.

Foxx’s friend rushed him to a hospital and doctors began flushing the drug out. But despite making a full recovery, the “Ray” star suffered severe flashbacks for months, leaving him terrified and paranoid.

“I was drinking whiskey and it didn’t taste funny, so I had no idea. It took about 15 minutes and I knew something was wrong,” he said, according to WENN. “I said to my roommate, ‘Something is going on, and I don’t know what it is, but I’m going to ride it out.

Watch Chris Brown On Larry King: See the complete show here. (Video)

*If you missed the Larry King show last night and its subsequent repeats, hey no worries. We’ve got the hook up for you here at EURweb. Just scroll down to watch.

But first, here’s how it’s being reported in media around the country:

The Star-Ledger (New Jersey):
Chris Brown and his inappropriately jaunty bow tie pleaded his case in the court of public opinion Wednesday night, telling Larry King that he was ashamed of himself for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna but wouldn’t go into the details of the evening out of respect for Rihanna’s privacy.

Brown, who appeared with his mother Joyce Hawkins and lawyer Mark Geragos, then tried to explain why he lost his temper with Rihanna: “I feel like that just there — there’s — we’re young. We’re both young. So nobody taught us how to love one another. Nobody taught us a book on how to control our emotions or our anger.”

The court of public opinion is not impressed. Well, except for the bow tie, which was one of the top Google searches this morning.

Click over to WATCH the full interview if you missed it last night.
