Dr. Conrad Murray was charged with involentary manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson.

TMZ got a hold of the coroner’s report that led to Murray being charged.  Here is what led to the coroner’s decision;

1. Circumstances indicate the Propofol and the benzodiazepines were administered by another.

2. Propofol was administered in a non-hospital setting without any appropriate medical indication.

3. The standard of care for administering Propofol was not met. Recommended equipment for patient monitoring, precision dosing and resuscitation was not present.

4. The circumstances do not support self-administration of Propofol.

Jessica Mathis, who was on scene had this to say about Murray being arrested and being there.

Being at Dr. Conrad Murray’s indictment was a nightmare all over again reliving the fact that Michael is gone. I arrived late and didn’t get to see him walk into the courthouse but a MJ friend of mine told me that they chanted “Murderer” as he walked in and that he definitely heard them, contrary to the media reporting people chanted “justice for Michael.”

We waited for almost 2 hours before the Jackson family left, all of the family snuck out through the back of the courthouse, while Randy Jackson walked out alone in front of the entire media and fans to his one black car. The fans yelled, “Love you Randy!” and he waved slightly acknowledging them as he got into the car.

The media poked around and interviewed fans, waiting for Murray to walk out. But Murray was a sly snake, somehow he managed to slip away into some unknown vehicle and already was gone before all of us knew it, while the car he arrived in stayed and then left empty as a decoy

Fans screamed outraged, “Why the celebrity treatment for this man?!” He had his own special getaway vehicle somehow provided by the police. Why was that happening? All I can say is that’s wrong, he should of faced the media and fans, but he’s a coward. Too scared to show the world what he really is, a liar, and a murderer.

I thank Jessica for sharing that with us.  What do you think of Conrad Murray finally being charged?-Dr.FB

On Sunday, the matchup between the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints, aka SuperBowl XLIV, became the most watched television program in history, dethroning the finale of M*A*S*H which held the record for 27 years.

106.5 million people tuned in to watch the Saints come from behind and take home the trophy to New Orleans (M*A*S*H had pulled in 105.9 million viewers). Viewership was up 8% from last year’s game.

Last night’s game was the first domestic television show to ever crack the 100 million viewer mark. Holy footballs, Batman, that’s A LOT of people!

“With all the memorable story lines going into Super Bowl XLIV combined with the awesome power of the NFL, we are thrilled with this rating, and I am extremely proud of the way the entire CBS Television Network produced, sold and promoted the most-watched television show in history,” said Sean McManus, president, CBS News and Sports.

Why do you guys think this year’s SuperBowl did so well? Was it the increase in HD sets across the country? Was it the teams playing? The quarterbacks? The ads (watch them here)? -Dr.FB

Channing Tatum took on Avatar and won.  Despite rancid reviews early on, “Dear John” was box office king this weekend, ending “Avatar’s” reign.

Dear John’s makers figured the movie would make around $20 million, seriously underestimating as the movie made around 32 million.  What were they not expecting?

An audience that was over 80 percent female and a HUGE turnout of women under 21.  Come on.  How could they not expect it? Super Bowl weekend and it is a Nicholas Sparks novel.  His stories being turned into movies have made “A Walk To Remember” and “The Notebook” but also made the bomb wit Richard Gere. 

Bottom line: as long as his books/movies have young actors starring in them, they will be successful.

So look for “One Song” with Miley Cyrus to do very well soon.  In that time, if you do pick up a Nicholas Sparks novel, be warned. That dude will have you crying by the end of one of his stories.

Well, this will put the rumors that they split to bed…..at least til the end of the week.  Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie along with their son Maddox attended the Super Bowl yesterday where the New Orleans Saints beat the Indianapolis Colts.

There has been rumors swirling for weeks that Brad and Angelina have split despite reports from their publicists that they are together.   They smooched during the game, even with that disgusting thing hanging from Brad’s chin.

Maddox, when your dad is sleeping, can you do us all a favor and cut off that dead animal that died below your dad’s bottom lip?  Thanks.-Dr.FB

Oprah, Dave & Jay Surprise Super Bowl Audience

Posted in Celebrity News, Entertainment, Television on February 8th, 2010 by drfunkenberry

The Super Bowl had some pretty horrible commercials, where it seems advertisers forgot to entertain and at the most, make you laugh.

The biggest surprise, however, was the Late Show With David Letterman commercial which featured David Letterman, Oprah Winfrey and….Jay Leno?  Yup. 

Shortly after the commercial aired, Oprah revealed on her Twitter that the commercial was filmed in Dave’s studio undercover with all 3 of them.

It was one of the shorter commercials but effective.  What do you think of the commercial?  Am I right that the commercials were hella lackluster this year?-Dr.FB
