 Bad news for Janet Jackson fans–she’s postponed two more shows on her Rock Witchu tour following a mysterious illness Monday night in Montreal that sent her to the hospital briefly. I certainly hope she feels better soon–otherwise her wack-job brother might get the notion to finish the tour for her–in drag…- Maroon 5 fans can catch their band on the tube Wednesday night on CSI:NY performing their latest single Goodnight Goodnight.

- ABC has captured the first ratings week battle of the fall season, placing Dancing With The Stars, Desperate Housewives and Grey’s Anatomy in the top three spots last week. Meanwhile, the return of 90210 on The CW Network is on a downward spiral, with only about half as many viewers as the show’s premiere three weeks ago.

It does appear that there’s considerable evidence of a mental condition…- The moderator of Thursday’s vice-presidential debate, PBS reporter Gwen Ifill, says she still plans to do her job there–despite breaking her ankle while carrying prep documents for the debate down the stairs in her home.

- Britney Spears said in a radio interview Monday that she is "definitely" hitting the road next year to do some shows, and that it likely will be a world tour. It must make her feel just like a teenager again–you know, having to ask her dad for permission to go…
- A former attorney for Heath Ledger has filed suit against an insurance company who he alleges is withholding a $10 million payout on a policy Ledger took out to benefit his daughter Matilda Rose.

- Ed McMahon is back in legal hot water, thanks to a lawsuit from a company founded by the late Merv Griffin who claims it loaned McMahon $100 grand in 2005 and hasn’t been repaid. Maybe Merv’s people could let Ed win the money on Wheel Of Fortune…

- Mariah Carey has stepped in as Saturday Night Live’s musical guest this weekend after Janet Jackson was forced to cancel due to a flu outbreak that briefly put her in the hospital.

- Madonna was reportedly dumfounded by Justin Timberlake’s story at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame about getting a B-12 injection from her in his backside, and her remarking that he had "a nice top shelf".

- A 60-year-old woman who said her name was Billie Jean King and claimed to be Michael Jackson’s wife was caught tresspassing on Jacko’s soon-to-be-former Neverland Ranch. I wonder if she also told cops she was a Pretty Young Thing who didn’t Wanna Be Startin’ Somthing, so they had better Beat It…
- The seventh Harry Potter book may be the last of its kind, but the movie from it won’t–it will actually be two movies, filmed at the same time but released six months apart.
