Six years after film actress Lana Clarkson died, a Supreme Court jury convicted rock music producer Phil Spector guilty of second-degree murder and guilty of using a firearm in committing a crime. Clarkson died of a gun shot fired in her mouth as she sat in the foyer of Spector's mansion in 2003. Spector has worked with major rock legends like Tina Turner and John Lennon.

Mel Gibson and wife of 28 years, Robyn are calling it quits. Many magazines and online sources report that Robyn signed papers on April 9 and cite the typical "irreconcilable differences" for the divorce. It's estimated that Mel's fortune is around $900 million and there is no prenuptial agreement, which means by California law the spouse could get 50 percent of the estate.

Another Hollywood couple that has called it quits is Lindsay Lohan and girlfriend Samantha Ronson. Ronson's family has looked into getting a restraining order against Lohan, but no order has been filed. Sources close to the two say that couple is still talking and trying to work things out.

On a happier note, People magazine is reporting Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. are expecting their first child. The couple has been married for six years. Both are working on different projects due out in the fall.

Out magazine ousted Ellen DeGeneres from the number one spot to number two on their third annual list of Power 50. This year the number one spot went to U.S. Democratic Representative Barney Frank for the political influence he carries in our nation's capital. Other people on the list include: MTV honcho Brian Graden, billionaire mogul David Geffen, and Sex and the City writer and producer Michael Patrick King.

Rapper Eminem is stirring up controversy yet again with his new music video "We Made You," directed by Joseph Kahn. He pokes fun at people from Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin to pop star Britney Spears and everyone in between. If you want a good laugh take a break from studying and Youtube the video.
