Michael Jackson gave his daughter Paris a lot of advice during their relatively short time together, and he asked her to remember something after he died. Paris talks about what her father told her, and she also tells Ellen Degeneres was she thought about having to wear a mask when she was little, getting acting advice from MJ and how she’s being treated in school.

For some reason, this little interview made us like lil Paris Jackson: Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris chatted with Ellen DeGeneres for her first solo interview, which is set to air on Thursday. During the sit-down, Paris covered everything from why she had to wear masks growing up to the best advice her dad ever gave her. Although she was born as one of the most famous kids in the world, no one knew what Paris looked like when she was a young child because her father famously didn’t let his children out in public without their faces covered. Paris admitted that a Turn the page to see the interview!
It’s Tuesday and we’re watching The Real Housewives of Atlanta? Is anyone else confused? Due to the special night, we thought perhaps this would be a very merry holiday episode, Atlanta style. Instead things got downright down and dirty. Let’s break it down in THG’s +/- review! Bob’s dragging Sheree back to court to reduce his child support payments. Reduce it to what, you might ask, since he hasn’t paid a nickel in four years. Minus 15 . You can’t reduce nothing from nothing. So Sheree hires Phaedra to represent her and the legal diva gives Sheree some advice. First is to have Bob hauled off to jail for failing to make his support payments for four years. Plus 10 . Despite the current court case Sheree still has the right to hold his feet to the fire on that one but she backs down. She doesn’t want to do that to the father of her children. Minus 12 , honey. He’s got no problem bailing on his kids and he’d probably step over Sheree if she fell down in front of him. Isn’t it past time to kick a little Bob butt? Phaedra’s second piece of advice is that Sheree not drive up in her brand new Porsche or wear her most expensive outfit. Sheree is aghast. What she has shouldn’t matter and ideally she’s right but it’s not smart to ask for money when you’re holding a $16,000 purse. As Sheree is freaking out before court, Phaedra overcompensates, telling her how easy this case is going to be. Minus 8 . Never promise anything when you head to court. Anything can happen. In the end Bob used a stall tactic. He filed a contempt charge against his ex saying she took furniture that he should have gotten in the divorce. It’s completely lame but it did the trick. They’ll all have to go back to court once again. Sheree blames Phaedra because she promised her so much and delivered nothing. Honestly I don’t think there’s much Ms. Parks could have done here … other than not raise Sheree’s hopes. And if Sheree had taken Phaedra’s advice in the first place the deadbeat dad would be filing motions from a jail cell. Kandi decides to update her sets for her web based sex show Kandi Koated Nights. The sets don’t help much when your guests are sitting there texting while the show’s in progress. Tonight’s topic: How can women snare a pro-athlete? Her guest host Charles Grant basically says women shouldn’t act like hookers if they want to be treated like ladies. I’ll give him a Plus 5 for his directness. Then Kandi wants to know how he want from NeNe to girlfriend Marlo who happens to be sitting next to him. Minus 8 to Kandi. I know she’s looking to be salacious but it comes across low class. Charles says he’s never been with NeNe. Then Kandi starts prying into where Marlo got her money. I bet the couple was wondering why the hell they agreed to come on this tacky little show.  Oh, but Kandi did share her favorite sex positions with her audience. Isn’t that something we all need to know. I’m guessing Kandi will be using her show to pimp her new line of musical sex toys. Sounds like a perfect fit. After giving birth on Sunday’s episode , Kim and Kroy take KJ home. I wish it all surrounded the cute baby. Instead we had to endure more talk about Kim’s boobs, her father’s breastfeeding jokes, why Kim’s scared of her son’s penis, her awe over baby poop and then we got to watch the dog pee on the floor. Minus 10 . Good times. Unfortunately for Kroy, Kim has yet to change a diaper and Brielle is more interested in being a teenager than helping out. Does this guy have any clue what he’s gotten himself into. Somehow, after all that, we’re still stuck on the fact that it’s Tuesday. Just doesn’t seem right. EPISODE TOTAL: -38! SEASON TOTAL: -133!

Michelle Parker and Dale Smith, a formerly engaged couple, appeared on the People’s Court earlier this month. After the show, Parker mysteriously vanished. Now Smith is in the wind as well, having just been named the primary suspect in her disappearance, according to Orlando, Fla., Police Chief Paul Rooney. Officials confirm Smith, who appeared with Michelle Parker on the show, arguing over the engagement ring he have her, is the target of the investigation. Chief Rooney says Smith refused to take a polygraph test in the case. Michelle Parker Disappearance Parker’s mother, Yvonne Stewart, made a plea during a Monday news conference: “If you could have avoided this Dale, if you had cooperated with the police and if you took a polygraph test when they asked you, you could have avoided a lot of stress.” “We’re not going to stop until we find out who did this,” she adds. According to public records, the pair was involved in a domestic violence case involving children in 2009. Parker and Smith have 3-year-old
Barney Frank – a 16-term Congressman from Massachusetts and one of the more outspoken politicians of his time – announced yesterday that he will not seek reelection in 2012. Citing a new redistricting map that will include many people he has never represented, along with a desire to do other things in life, the 71-year old surprised many at a press conference in Newton, MA on Monday, saying at one point: “I think I would have won but it would have been a tough campaign. I hate raising money.” Barney Frank Jabs at Gingrich, Romney One of the more polarizing figures in Washington, Frank became the first openly gay man to serve in Congress. He’s been at the center of support and controversy recently, due to his Dodd-Frank law and his pre-crisis support for government housing agencies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. “The anger in the country… is such that the kind of inside work I felt best at is not going to be productive in the foreseeable future,” Frank said yesterday, referring to a “substantially deteriorated” political climate. “The House of Representatives will not be the same without him,” President Obama said upon learning the news, while Republicans are excited about an open seat in 2012. “It’s not an encouraging sign for House Democrats when a senior member sees little chance of becoming a committee chairman,” said Paul Lindsay, a spokesman for the National Republican Congressional Committee.
The Justin Bieber baby drama carousel continues to spin around and around and around… A day after Robbie Powell claimed to be the father of Mariah Yeater’s baby – even volunteering to take his own DNA test as proof – one of Yeater’s attorneys has spoken out and accused the young man of being a hypocrite for alleging his client is merely after attention and money. Justin Bieber Baby Daddy Debate: The Pulse “If Robbie Powell actually believes and claims he is the father, I suggest he contact me directly,” Jeffrey Leving tells TMZ . “Litigating this case in the media and bypassing Mariah’s legal team only perpetuates the three-ring circus and accomplishes nothing as I see it.” That’s true…and ironic, considering Leving made the statement to the media. Bieber, to his credit, has remained above the fathering fray. He’s issued a couple basic denials, agreed to a paternity test and is now just spending his time spreading holiday cheer via music.

In David Cronenberg’s new film A Dangerous Method , Keira Knightley plays Sabina Spielrein, a young woman who at times lapses into fits of hysterics and at other times, comfortably discusses masturbation and the arousing aspects of her father’s beatings. Originally though, this complicated character (and the onscreen spankings she endures) were not intended for the Pirates of the Caribbean star — but for Julia Roberts, America’s Longest-Reigning Sweetheart.
Kelly Rowland has announced that she’s ready to reunite with her estranged father this Christmas. The former Destiny’s Child singer’s father told a British tabloid that he was trying to get in touch with her for the first time in 23 years. It’s taken Kelly a few months but she’s finally ready to see him again and has chosen Christmas Day as the date for their reunion. Kelly said: “It’s really important just to forgive my father. I want to meet him this Christmas, because now is the time, because tomorrow’s not promised to us. I think it’s important to forgive people and we move on, we have to. The pain is there, of course it will be there, and it’s important to know that forgiveness is the first step towards healing it all.” We hope they’re reunion goes well!

You know we’re going to get fresh baby quotes everytime someone with a camera or tape recorder happens to cross paths with Hubby Hov or Baby Bump Bey until her humpful pops, right? Today’s nugget of Knowles-Carter New Parent preciousness is inspired by Jay-Z’s oft-discussed experienced of watching his father walk out on their family. “It makes me a little paranoid because no matter what, I don’t think any person, or any male, goes into a relationship thinking that they’re going to leave or wouldn’t be there,” he tells PEOPLE at GQ’s Men of the Year party at the Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood. “I think the circumstances a lot of times dictates things, right?” But the music mogul says he is not his father, a subject he also addresses on “New Day” from his new album, Watch the Throne. “I’m just a different kind of guy,” he says. “I’m a highly principled person.” “I come from a real place where you had to be a highly principled person,” he continues, “so, I’m pretty confident that I’ll figure it out.” On a lighter note, Jay-Z says he and Beyoncé will lavish their child with luxuries. So will the baby’s diapers be made of gold? “No,” he says, laughing. “Leather!” Awwwww, lol and knee slaps… That Camel… Source
