Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are taking legal action against the British tabloid “News of the World” for their story claiming the couple were about to split. Read more on their lawsuit below.

“Brangelina” has filed a lawsuit against Britain’s “News of the World” for reporting they were working out details of a split.

The News of the World reported last month that the couple had spoken to a lawyer in December. They also said the couple made a deal to split their assets and were also arranging to divide custody of their six children.

“The News of the World has failed to meet our clients’ reasonable demands for a retraction of and apology for these false and intrusive allegations which have now been widely republished by mainstream news outlets,” a lawyer for Angelina and Brad said in a statement. “We have advised them to bring proceedings, which they have now done.”

In a letter cited in that statement, Sorrell Trope, the divorce attorney whose name was mentioned in the News of the World report, denied he had been contacted by the couple.

Hayley Barlow, a spokeswoman for the News of the World, had no comment on the lawsuit.

Brad and Angelina were photographed at the Super Bowl showing major PDA. Check out the photos below!

Dr. Conrad Murray was charged with involuntary manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson. Read more on Dr. Murray’s appearance in court today below.

Dr.  Murray is accused of acting “unlawfully and without malice” in causing the death of Michael Jackson, 50, in June.

Murray was said to have acted ‘without the caution and circumspection required” when he administered, propofol, a powerful sedative to Jackson to help him sleep.

Dr. Murray is pleading not guilty to the charges.

The Los Angeles county coroner ruled Michael Jackson’s death a homicide “caused by acute intoxication of the powerful anesthetic propofol, with other sedatives a contributing factor.”

Murray, who is based in Houston, went to Los Angeles to meet with lawyers and surrendered to police today.

The police affadavit stated that Murray had been trying to wean Jackson off propofol, which had been helping him sleep, by mixing up a cocktail of anti-anxiety drugs and sedatives.

But Michael Jackson went into cardiac arrest on June 25, and Murray could not revive the pop star.

If convicted, Dr. Murray faces a maximum of four years in prison.

Dr. Conrad Murray wasn't the only person headed to court today, Charlie Sheen made an appearance in Aspen today where he was officially charged with felony menacing, misdemeanor 3rd degree assault and misdemeanor criminal mischief stemming from the alleged Christmas day fight with wife Brooke Mueller.

He did not enter a plea so this case is far from over.

This is hilarious:

Less than a week after Alex Reid tied the knot with Katie Price, the cage fighter reportedly wants out. The reason? He had no idea he was flying to Las Vegas to get married!

Sources claim Reid's advisors are searching for a legal loophole that will enable him to annul the marriage: "He feels he was pressured and hadn't had time to consider all the implications," an insider said.

Alex Reid has a good body. Good taste in women? Not so much.

The story gets even better:

A spokesperson for Price, whose marriage to Peter Andre fell apart amidst a series of tabloid accusations, said his client and Reid did plan on getting hitched... but Price organized the event while Reid was secluded in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

"Alex and Kate had always intended to get married, but the Vegas trip was spontaneous and Alex didn't know about it," the rep said.

A friend says Reid was drunk for the Vegas ceremony, "which could have clouded his thoughts." That still doesn't explain what he sees in Price to begin with, of course.

This is an attention-starved same woman, after all, that made up a story about a celebrity raping her. Seriously.

No one on the planet is thankful for the existence of Dr. Conrad Murray... but if anyone could find a silver lining in that physician's involvement in Michael Jackson's death, it's Charlie Sheen.

That's because Murray's arraignment today on charges of involuntary manslaughter overshadowed the fact that Sheen was also in court.

As a result of his Christmas Day confrontation with wife Brooke Mueller, the actor was charged with three crimes in an Aspen court: felony menacing, misdemeanor third degree assault and misdemeanor criminal mischief.

Sheen did not enter a plea.

The judge did relax the protective order that has been in place against Charlie since December 25; he can now communicate and have contact with Mueller.

The couple embraced each other at the conclusion of the hearing and Sheen is due back in court in March.
