Charlie Sheen Reunites With Wife

Charlie SheenCHARLIE Sheen and his wife Brooke Mueller have reunited.

The Two and a Half Men star — who was arrested on Christmas Day for allegedly threatening Brooke — was reunited with his spouse Monday after a judge modified a restraining order and allowed the couple to work out their differences.

The order was put in place after Sheen was charged with felony menacing and misdemeanour charges of third-degree assault and criminal mischief, has been lifted on the condition the 44-year-old actor does not drink alcohol, is in possession of guns or harasses his wife.

Brooke’s attorney, Yale Galanter, said the couple had hugged and kissed in Pitkin County Courthouse after the hearing before leaving separately. However, they both planned to return to their Los Angeles home.

“I can tell you, Brooke very badly wanted to have contact with Charlie,” Galanter said. “There are many children’s issues that she wanted to communicate with him about.

“Brooke’s desire was to get the order modified so they could have contact and communicate because of their children. Judge Boyd was gracious enough to grant that and now Charlie and Brooke are on their way back to Los Angeles to continue their lives.”

The couple — who married in 2008 and have ten-month-old twin boys, Max and Bob — are keen to rebuild their marriage, and have asked prosecutors to drop the case.

They have not cohabitated since the temporary restraining order was put in place following Sheen’s arrest.

The actor is due back in court on March 15.

Gerard Butler Arranged Jennifer Aniston’s Birthday Vacation!

Jennifer Aniston and Gerard ButlerJENNIFER Aniston’s birthday vacation was organized by Gerard Butler.

The former Friends actress — who has repeatedly been romantically linked to her The Bounty Hunter costar since they filmed the movie together last year — has revealed it was the 40-year-old Hollywood hunk’s idea to whisk her and a group of friends away to Mexico for her 41st birthday.

“He said to me, ’You come to Mexico all the time and Mexico is really hurting right now because of the swine flu and the drug trafficking and all of this sort of stuff but it’s not all of Mexico’,” Jennifer, whose birthday is this Thursday, told US TV show Access Hollywood.

“These people survive on us coming down and spending money and coming here to these beautiful places. It sort of made sense to say, ‘Hey, let’s help out Mexico.’ Let’s shout out to these kids in Tijuana at El Faro and have a good time. That’s sort of our birthday celebration this year.”

The pair were joined on the trip by their celebrity friends Courteney Cox-Arquette, Jason Bateman, Sheryl Crow and Kathy Najimy.

The group soaked up the sun on a boat and stayed at the One and Only Palmilla resort in Cabo San Lucas.

Last month, Jennifer and Gerard reignited romance rumours after they were seen getting close backstage at the Golden Globe Awards.

The actress has now praised the “lovely” actor for his “self-deprecating” manner.

“He’s a guy’s guy, but he’s absolutely lovely and sort of self-deprecating,” she said. “What you see is what you get. We look at work the same way… we always have each other’s back.”

Despite enjoying her birthday celebrations, Jennifer is seemingly in denial about hitting 41, she joked, “Mmm 31, pssh. It’s quite lovely I have to say. Hitting 30 was a hump but, you know, 31 is fabulous. It really does get better doesn’t it?”

Michael Jackson’s Mother Speaks Out

Michael JacksonMICHAEL Jackson’s grieving mother insists Dr. Conrad Murray “killed” her son, despite the physician pleading not guilty to his involuntary manslaughter.

Katherine Jackson watched as the medic — who was with Michael when he died last June — entered his plea at Los Angeles Superior Court Monday and later insisted he had lied to the judge.

“He’s lying,” Katherine declared. “He’s guilty. Nobody was there but him. He’s just trying to save his own behind. He killed him. He wasn’t monitoring him.”

Michael’s sister La Toya also spoke out against Murray and insisted she will continue to fight for justice for the late ‘Thriller’ singer.

“Michael was murdered, and although he died at the hands of Dr. Conrad Murray, I believe Dr. Murray was a part of a much larger plan,” she said. “There are other individuals involved, and I will not rest and I will continue to fight until all of the proper individuals are brought forth and justice is served.”

Murray — who, according to prosecutors, unlawfully, but without malice, killed Michael — was later released on $75,000 bail.

However, his lawyer Edward Chernoff fears his client will not receive a fair trial because of Michael’s popularity.

When asked whether it would be possible to find an impartial jury, he replied, “It’s going to be tough, but I think if we get the right jury, the right result will come in.”

Murray is accused of giving Michael the powerful anaesthetic Propofol to help him sleep but which instead led to his death on June 25.

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

Kate Hudson ‘Makes a Play For Justin Timberlake’

Kate HudsonKATE Hudson has been making moves on Justin Timberlake!

The Bride Wars star — who recently split from beau Alex Rodriguez — has apparently always fancied the SexyBack singer, so decided to go in for the kill when she heard Justin’s romance with Jessica Biel had hit the skids.

“Kate’s always had a thing for Justin, and after reading that his romance with Jessica Biel is over, she’s decided to make her move,” a source told American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“They’ve known each other for years, but up until now the timing has been bad. Kate was married for a long time and Justin’s had several girlfriends.”

Hudson and Timberlake were reportedly seen getting cozy at the recent SAG Awards, where the pair presented Alec Baldwin with the Best Actor trophy.

“Kate flirted with Justin outrageously that night, and he was all over her,” the source adds. “They exchanged numbers in the green room.

“Kate wouldn’t dream of stealing another girl’s guy. But in Hollywood, most people believe Justin and Jessica are now all but over. They’re certainly not red-hot for each other anymore. Their relationship has evolved into a friendship.”

Kate, the source says, is lonely and desperate for a guy to keep her company.

“She wants a man who is easy to be with,” dished the pal. “And that’s certainly Justin.

“Kate’s not rushing into anything. But she’s always had a crush on Justin, and she’s following her instincts.”

“They’ve been hanging out a lot. John has been sending her flowers, jewelry, and other gifts.”
