Reporter Wanted for Posting Videos of Rihanna Case

Posted by Sam on 14th July 2009 in Chris Brown, Rihanna

Legal documents were recently filed asking a judge to hold a reporter in the Chris Brown case in contempt of court. According to the documents, Russell Alan Wetanson runs a website that posted a video of interviews in the hallway outside the courtroom where the singer pled guilty to felony assault. Court rules prohibit that kind of taping. Wetanson, who also happens to be a lawyer, was notified by the public information officer of the court regarding the violation and the videos have since been removed from his website. However, a contempt hearing could now be set which makes it a possibility for Wetanson to be sent to jail. Why couldn’t they do that to Chris instead?

A star-studded Michael Jackson tribute is expected to be announced at London’s O2 Arena featuring a hologram of the star, it has been claimed.

Reports claim stars including Justin Timberlake, pictured, Leona Lewis, Usher and Ne-Yo have been approached to perform at the concert by AEG Live and sing cover versions of Jacko’s tracks.

The gig will reportedly be held on August 29, on what would have been Jacko’s 51st birthday. It is claimed producers are hoping to project a hologram of the star onto the stage.

A source at AEG Live said: “There has been frantic activity both in AEG’s London and LA offices.

“It will be a celebration of Michael Jackson’s life through his music. The producers want to avoid a sombre memorial tone.”
