An autopsy has been performed on Michael Jackson but, as usual, the results are inconclusive at this time. A spokesman for the L.A. County Coroner’s Office said they’ll know more when results from the toxicology tests come back, which will take four to six weeks. But there are no signs of foul play or, “external trauma.” The spokesman added that Jackson was taking unspecified prescription medications at the time of his death. But the Jackson Family is having a second autopsy done because they want to know what really happened the day Michael died.

The Jacson Family issued their official statement over the weekend.  Here it is, “In one of the darkest moments of our lives we find it hard to find the words appropriate to this sudden tragedy we all had to encounter. Our beloved son, brother and father of three children has gone so unexpectedly, in such a tragic way and much too soon. It leaves us, his family, speechless and devastated to a point, where communication with the outside world seems almost impossible at times. We miss Michael endlessly, our pain cannot be described in words.  But Michael would not want us to give up now. So we want to thank all of his faithful supporters and loyal fans worldwide, you who Michael loved so much. Please do not despair, because Michael will continue to live on in each and every one of you. Continue to spread his message, because that is what he would want you to do. Carry on, so his legacy will live forever. In addition, Joseph Jackson wishes to personally convey: ‘My grandchildren are deeply moved by all the love and support you have shown for them and their father, Michael Jackson.’”

There’s still no word on a memorial service for Michael, but there’s some talk going around that it’ll happen Wednesday at the Neverland Ranch. Supposedly, there’s at least one proposal on the table to have Michael buried at Neverland and to turn the place into another Graceland. Michael last updated his will in 2002, after his youngest son was born. There’s no word what provisions are in it or if the family has even seen it yet.

Everyone’s been under the impression that Debbie Rowe signed away her parental rights for the children she bore Michael Jackson. And that’s true. But as it turns out, she still has those rights. During their custody battle in 2005, Debbie agreed to give up her rights. And the judge who presided over their hearing agreed to let that happen. But he later changed his mind and restored Debbie’s parental rights. What that means is that Debbie could battle the Jackson Family for custody of Michael’s two oldest kids, 12-year-old Prince Michael and 11-year-old Paris. 7-year-old Prince Michael, II a.k.a. “Blanket” was born to a surrogate mother after Michael and Debbie divorced. It is believed that Michael’s parents, Joe and Katherine Jackson, plan on raising all three kids. We understand that that Joe and Katherine would not refuse Debbie access to the kids. But it’s not clear whether Debbie wants custody or even a relationship with the children. Britain’s “News of the World” tabloid has a pretty extensive interview with Debbie, in which she claims she wants nothing to do with her kids. Keep in mind, however, that this particular tabloid is a rag and they’ve printed more than their share of bogus “stories” and “quotes”. With that in mind, here’s what Debbie Rowe allegedly told them. First of all, she said the kids aren’t even Michael’s. She was artificially inseminated using anonymous donors. She said, “I offered him my womb, it was a gift. It was something I did to keep him happy.” Debbie says she and Michael never had sex, but she doesn’t believe that he was gay or a child molester. As for the custody issue, Debbie said, “I was never a good mother, I never felt any attachment to them. It was a better feeling giving them to him than it was keeping them as my own. I know I will never see them again. I was never cut out to be a mother. I was no good. I don’t want these children in my life. My children are my animals now.” “People” magazine says that Michael Jackson’s family tried to stage an intervention for him in Las Vegas three years ago to get him to stop using prescription drugs.

Siblings Randy, Jackie and Rebbie confronted Michael in person, and Janet participated by phone. But a so-called “source” says, “Michael got pissed off.  He said he wasn’t on drugs. But they didn’t believe him.”

When Lisa Marie Presley was married to Michael Jackson in the mid-1990s, Michael used to tell her he was worried he’d end up like her father, Elvis Presley. Elvis succumbed to a painkiller addiction at the age of 42. On her MySpace blog, Lisa Marie says, “I promptly tried to deter him from the idea, at which point he just shrugged his shoulders and nodded almost matter of fact as if to let me know, he knew what he knew and that was kind of that.” Lisa Marie also defends their marriage which more than a few people questioned. She says, “Our relationship was not ‘a sham’ as is being reported in the press. It was an unusual relationship yes, where two unusual people who did not live or know a ‘Normal life’ found a connection, perhaps with some suspect timing on his part. Nonetheless, I do believe he loved me as much as he could love anyone and I loved him very much.”

Organizers of last night’s “BET Awards” spent the weekend re-tooling the show, in order to turn it into a tribute to Michael Jackson. Host Jamie Foxx opened the show with some Michael Jackson dance moves and pretty much everybody who took the stage to present or receive an award gave props to Michael and sent their love out to his family. Michael’s father, Joe Jackson, was seated in the front row and at the end of the show, Janet Jackson made a surprise appearance and issued a brief statement.

“Time” magazine busted some butt to get a Michael Jackson tribute issue onto the newsstands today.  Check out the cover!

You know that whole “Death comes in threes” theory? We thought there would be a break after the deaths of Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson. Wrong. Professional TV pitchman Billy Mays died yesterday. He was only 50 years old. You know Billy Mays. He’s that burly, bearded guy who sold all manner of products including Oxi Clean and Kaboom. He started most of his commercials by saying, “Hi, Billy Mays here.” Well, Billy went to bed Saturday night at his home in Tampa, Florida and never woke up. His wife found him unresponsive at 7:45am. There’s no word yet on a cause of death, but foul play is not suspected. On Saturday, however, Billy apparently suffered a blow to the head while on a flight from Philadelphia where he’d just shot a new Oxi Clean commercial. The plane had a rough landing, because the two front tires blew as it hit the runway. Billy told a local TV station, “All of a sudden as we hit you know it was just the hardest hit, all the things from the ceiling started dropping. It hit me on the head, but I got a hard head.” Right after the incident, Billy Tweeted, “Just had a close call landing in Tampa. The tires blew out upon landing. Stuck in the plane on the runway. You can always count on US Air.” Billy wasn’t feeling well when he went to bed Saturday night at around 10:00pm. Obviously, people are speculating that Billy died from a subdural hematoma which is bleeding in the brain, often caused by head trauma. That’s what killed actress Natasha Richardson after she bumped her head in a skiing accident. It’s all speculation, though, until an autopsy is performed and the findings are released. Billy’s wife Deborah issued the following statement, “Although Billy lived a public life, we don’t anticipate making any public statements over the next couple of days. Our family asks that you respect our privacy during these difficult times.”

Kendra Wilkinson married Philadelphia Eagles receiver Hank Baskett at the Playboy Mansion on Saturday. Kendra’s fellow “Girls Next Door” Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt acted as bridesmaids. Hugh Hefner was there too, obviously. Both Kendra and Hank wore white while Kendra accentuated her dress with more than $100,000 in platinum jewelry. Cameras were rolling, of course, and the wedding was recorded for an upcoming episode of the E! reality show, “Kendra”.

Vanessa Minnillo isn’t wasting any time finding a replacement for Nick Lachey. Vanessa and former “That ’70s Show” actor Topher Grace hit the dance floor together at a party on Saturday night. Witnesses say they started making out during the Jackson 5’s “ABC”. They left together at around 1:30am.

Last week, Chris Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault and as part of the deal he got, he was ordered to stay 50 yards from Rihanna. Supposedly, that’s making it difficult for them to work on their “friendship.” A so-called “mutual pal” of Chris and Rihanna tells the “New York Daily News”, “They think the order is unnecessary and ridiculous. After the proceeding, Ri and Chris talked on the phone for almost an hour and really worked at becoming friends. They’re solid now.” But not “solid” enough to rebuild their romantic relationship. The source says, “That’s 100% done. They aren’t looking to hook back up again. They’re both moving on and going their separate ways.”
