On Gear Live: iPhone 16e Review: Apple Just Killed the Budget iPhone

His legal defense seemed a little shaky from the word go.

Dr. Conrad Murray, the physician who cared for pop star Michael Jackson during the singer’s final days, has been ordered to stand trial for involuntary manslaughter. Murray claimed that Jackson injected himself with a lethal dose of Propofol, but the judge has ruled that Murray's case will continue.

Meanwhile, Murray has been stripped of his medical license. Members of the Jackson family (Katherine, Janet, La Toya, Jackie, Jermaine and Marlon) were present during last week’s hearing, which ended in the current ruling. “I’m happy so far,” said La Toya of the events.

Testimony in the hearing took six days, where more than 20 witnesses were heard for the prosecution. No witnesses were called for the defense during the hearing.

Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson

Ex-lovers New neighbors Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson enjoyed dinner together over the weekend in West Hollywood, according to TMZ. However, sources say the pair remains “just friends.”

Linds recently moved into a new condo upon her release from the Betty Ford Center. We're supposed to believe the star had no idea whatsoever that ex-girlfriend/celebrity DJ Samantha Ronson already lives in the unit right next door.

Lindsay Lohan out of rehabLindsay Lohan may be on the way to a clean, safe recovery; however, she still has some things from her recent rehab past to settle first.

 
Lohan's on-again off-again attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, is now firing back at last month's claims that her client was violating her probation -- specifically, consuming alcohol -- while at the Betty Ford clinic.
 
"I had numerous conversations with Betty Ford counselors and doctors over the course of Lindsay's treatment there and it was never suggested by anyone that she ever drank or used drugs. Her discharge letter from the facility is totally consistent with that," said Holley.
 
Right, and we should listen to the lawyer who maintained that Lindsay was in Cannes for work when she was incessantly photographed partying on a yacht, practically refusing to show up to her court case?
 
The new judge presiding over Lindsay's case, Judge Elden Fox, has previously said that Lohan will return to jail for up to six months should she violate the terms of her probation.
 
Until her progress review hearing on February 25, Lohan is subject to random drug and alcohol tests.

On her first day out of rehabilitation at the Betty Ford Center, Lindsay Lohan was swamped by paparazzi as she made her way to the gym -- her first destination as a free woman.

Looks like Linds is taking a positive step toward clean living.

Before she was surrounded by every photog in Los Angeles, TMZ managed to get a few moments of video with the actress alone.

Justin Bieber on Vanity Fair

Teenage heartthrob Justin Bieber has graduated from Tiger Beat! The 16 year-old singer covers February's issue of Vanity Fair, appropriately covered in a sea of lipstick kisses. If you're an adolescent girl, what's Valentine's Day without a wall-worthy Justin Bieber photo, anyway?

Judging by the magazine's choice in font sizes, Bieber sadly ranks higher in importance than the Kennedys. With that said, I'm hoping that I can't trust the headline beneath his name -- I'd rather trade him in for more Lindsay Lohan coverage.

As far as magazine sales go, here's to hoping that Bieber's bloodthirsty fans are distracted long enough to give Selena some breathing room.

Mila Kunis and Macaulay CulkinWorld of Warcraft nerds can rejoice: Mila Kunis is back on the market.

Kunis and her former child actor boyfriend Macaulay Culkin have called it quits after 8 years together. The split, according to her rep, was amicable, and the pair are still friends (isn't that what they always say?).

The couple met when she was just a teenager on That 70s Show: "We grew up together. You find a steady rock in your life and that’s all you need. We have our ups and downs, but work through them," she told People in a 2009 interview.

No word yet from Culkin's rep.

Is it just me, or does it seem like every celebrity couple has broken up in the past year?

The prosecutor in Dr. Conrad Murray’s manslaughter case believes the defense will place the blame on Michael Jackson.

Murray is charged with killing the Prince of Pop by administering a fatal dose of Propofol.

“I do think it's clear the defense is operating under the theory that the victim, Michael Jackson, killed himself,” said Los Angeles County Deputy District Attorney David Walgren.

According to TMZ, Murray says Jackson administered the drug to himself while the doctor was momentarily out of the room.
