Halle Berry's ex Gabriel Aubry wants his fair share of time with their daughter. The model, 35, has filed legal papers asking to be recognized as Nahla's father and requesting joint custody of the 2-year-old girl.

According to People.com, Aubry filed papers on Dec. 30 in Los Angeles Superior Court, which say that he and Berry already had signed documents relating to the paternity of Nahla, whose last name is listed as Aubry.

Nahla was born in 2008, two years after Berry and Aubry began dating. They split in April 2010.

Aubry is also seeking a court order to secure that he and Berry have joint physical and legal custody of their daughter.

Better Place's electric taxis coming to SF Bay Area, thanks to $7 million grant

San Francisco, San Jose and Palo Alto, California were all too happy to endorse Better Place's electric vehicle infrastructure two years ago, but now the powers that be have invested some cash to get this show on the road. The Bay Area's Metropolitan Transportation Commission has dropped $6.9 million to purchase and build 61 electric taxis and four robotic battery swap stations to put freshly juiced cells in place -- just like Better Place has been doing with Tokyo taxis since April 26th. Yellow Cab Cooperative and Yellow Checker Cab will operate the zero-emission vehicles, though CNET reports that they've yet to choose a particular type -- perhaps we'll finally see Mitsubishi's i MiEV with a steering wheel on the left-hand side? PR after the break.

'Glee' Stars Stayed Up All Night For 'Thriller' Cover

'It was probably one of the most physical numbers that we've ever done,' Cory Monteith says.

When "Glee" returns from hiatus in the high-profile post-Super Bowl slot, it's returning in a big way, covering Michael Jackson's "Thriller." On Tuesday, the cast spoke to "Access Hollywood" about remaking the iconic tune, which will reportedly be mashed up with another yet-to-be-revealed hit.

"It was a huge production. We we're shooting that until 6:30 in the morning," Cory Monteith told "AH" at the Television Critics Association press tour. "We shot all night, and it was probably one of the most physical numbers that we've ever done. I was lifting Naya Rivera at one point in the dance. It was really active. We had the whole USC band wrapped in to this number as you can see in the photos. It was awesome."

Photos of the cast filming "Thriller" surfaced on the Internet recently, depicting a prom night-turned-zombie affair. Jackson's tune is just one of the many hits to be covered in the broadcast. Other songs featured in the post-Super Bowl episode include hits by the Black Eyed Peas, Katy Perry and Lady Antebellum.

Kevin McHale revealed that Jackson is his "favorite artist ever" and that he has been continuously requesting to cover a tune by the late King of Pop. "I've been pushing very obnoxiously for a very, very long time, so I'm beyond thrilled that we do Michael Jackson," said the actor.

Like the iconic music video, the "Glee" cover was an extravagant production, which was fitting for star Dianna Agron, who couldn't help smile throughout filming.

"The whole night, everybody kept saying, 'Why are you laughing so much? Why are you smiling so much?' " she said. "I was just in my element. I was in huge makeup, huge hair, huge costume, the stuff that I loved the most, which is why I loved 'Rocky [Horror Picture Show]' so much."

Matthew Morrison isn't in the number, but he watched it being shot. "We actually shot it, like, a couple nights ago," Morrison told "AH." "I actually went out to see it. We shot it in Long Beach and at a high school that we used their football field at. It was stunning. It's so weird with this show. We keep outdoing ourselves. It's like, 'What is there left to do?' This number is just fantastic."

What other MJ songs do you want the "Glee" cast to tackle? Share your ideas in the comments!

Michael Jackson Doctor Conrad Murray Ordered To Stand Trial

Murray faces manslaughter charges in the singer's death; his medical license has also been suspended.

Dr. Conrad Murray has been ordered to stand trial for manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson.

According to The Associated Press, Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor made the decision after a six-day preliminary hearing during which witnesses testified that the Houston cardiologist administered a dose of the powerful anesthetic propofol and other sedatives then left the pop star unmonitored.

During the course of the hearing, testimony was given that Murray ordered hundreds of bottles of propofol in the months before Jackson's death. The AP report also cited the fact that the prosecutors concluded their case with testimony from two doctors who said Murray acted outside the standard of medical care when he administered propofol and failed to provide proper care.

Other damning testimony included that of Jackson's bodyguard, who said that on the morning of the singer's death, it appeared that Murray didn't know how to administer CPR to his dying patient.

Judge Pastor also granted a request by the California Medical Board to suspend Murray's license to practice medicine in the state. Pastor said he made the decision in the interest of public safety and ordered Murray to notify every district in which he practices of the decision within 24 hours. Murray has clinics in Houston and Las Vegas.

Murray, 57, has pleaded not guilty, and his attorneys have argued that he did not give Jackson anything that should have killed him. Murray faces up to four years in prison if convicted.

Lady Gaga Or Britney Spears? RuPaul's Drag Queens Weigh In

'RuPaul's Drag Race' season three premieres Monday (January 24) on Logo.

WEST HOLLYWOOD, California ? Reluctantly crouched behind the red carpet line, drag queens primping and taking their time, the flashbulbs go off and the cameras go up, all of them yearning for their chance at the cup!

On Tuesday night, we caught up with the stars of "RuPaul's Drag Race" as they head into battle to see who will be the top drag queen of season three. Amid the glam and sequins in the air, competition was definitely on everyone's mind, so what better time to find out who RuPaul's drag queens predict will rule 2011: Lady Gaga or Britney Spears?

"With Britney and Gaga coming out with new [albums] this year ? it's going to be Gaga," Shangela, of season two, predicted. "Gaga runs the world, so Britney better take a seat and enjoy."

Tough words about a woman who has reached the #1 iTunes spot in 19 countries since her new single, "Hold it Against Me," was released a little over a week ago.

Season three's Venus D Lite, who could give Madonna a run for her money, stated, "I would probably say Britney ? only because Gaga has had her spotlight moment."

However, Raja, also from season three, disagreed: "I'm going to say Gaga. ... She challenges everyone and really puts out new ideas, and I certainly appreciate that."

With both artists set to premiere highly anticipated videos in the next couple of months, fans are waiting to see what new creative visions the stars will bring to the world of pop culture.

"I would love to see [Gaga] just be an artist and not just a character," said Sonique of season two. "With Lady Gaga, you can't really expect anything other than something that is going to be controversial."

season three castmember Mimi Imfurst, who arrived on the red carpet in an epic "worldly" outfit, is definitely on Team Gaga: "Lady Gaga has all the creativity that Britney doesn't have, plus all the talent she doesn't have, so Lady Gaga all the way."

When all is said and done, one thing's for sure: RuPaul's drag queens definitely aren't shy about expressing their opinions. Season three of "RuPaul's Drag Race" premieres Monday (January 24) at 10 p.m. ET/PT, 9 p.m. Central on Logo.

Who do you think will conquer 2011: Britney or Gaga? Sound off below!

Here's 'High School Musical' star Ashley Tisdale on the set of her new movie, 'High Stakes.' Here's a description of it:
Sharpay and her pet dog, Boi, travel to New York City for a role in a Broadway hit, only to discover the part wasn't what she expected.
From the wardrobe, I'm guessing this is a campy-type of comedy that's meant to appeal to the Disney crowd (and I don't mean that in a snarky way). I'm tempted to see it just for the dog: what a cutie :)Photos by INF Continue reading

'The King's Speech' Actors, Director Overjoyed By Oscar Nods

'Not used to this much joy, or this much champagne at this hour,' best-actor nominee Colin Firth said in a statement.
By Jocelyn Vena

"The King's Speech" leads all films with 12 nominations for next month's 83rd Academy Awards. The Tom Hooper-directed flick scored Oscar nods for Best Picture, Actor in a Leading Role, Actor in a Supporting Role and Actress in a Supporting Role, to name a few.

The movie's lead actor, Colin Firth, expressed his excitement over his nod in a statement to MTV News. "Currently celebrating with my colleagues three feet above the ground," said Firth, who also received a best-actor nomination last year for "A Single Man." "Not used to this much joy, or this much champagne at this hour."

Firth also spoke to the "Today" show shortly after the nominations were announced early Tuesday morning (January 25). "It seems like I was fired out of a cannon this time last year," Firth said about his Actor in a Leading Role nod. "And now it's like I'm orbiting Pluto."

And after receiving news of her Best Supporting Actress nomination, Helena Bonham Carter's statement to MTV News was equally ecsstatic. "Of course, I am thrilled to receive an Oscar nomination," she said. "As my 3-year-old daughter said, 'Yay!' I couldn't put it any better myself."

His co-star Geoffrey Rush opened up about his Actor in a Supporting Role nom to MTV News. "As an Australian, I'm as excited to be recognized and honored by the Academy as my character must have been when his London speech-therapy business flourished when the future King of England happened to pop by one day," Rush said in a statement. "This story has struck such a rich resonant chord with audiences of all ages, which is very exciting — to have your work honored by your industry peers is even better."

Hooper, who picked up a nod in the Directing category, also issued a statement to MTV. "I am absolutely overwhelmed by the twelve Oscar nominations for 'The King's Speech.' I am so grateful to the Academy," Hooper said. "I am incredibly proud of my extraordinary cast and crew. This is a day I will remember for the rest of my life."

Composer Alexandre Desplat was grateful for his Original Score nod, too. "Writing the music for 'The King's Speech' has been a delight, and I thank our brilliant director, Tom Hooper, for offering us and the audience such an inspiring and beautiful film," he said in a statement. "I also wish to congratulate all the other talented nominees for our movie."

Check out everything we've got on "The King's Speech."

Rachel Uchitel To Be On ?Celebrity Apprentice?

Now some of the choices for Donald Trump's show 'Celebrity Apprentice' have been a little questionable to me (like, this person is actually considered a celebrity?), but this one truly has me surprised.TMZ is reporting that Tiger Woods' alleged mistress, Rachel Uchitel, has been invited to participate in the next season of 'Celebrity Apprentice.'
Trump -- a longtime friend of Tiger's -- told TMZ he personally called Uchitel three weeks ago and offered her a spot on the show .... telling her she'd be "awesome."We called Uchitel and asked if she was going to take the offer -- and she said, "Absolutely."NBC has the final say on whether Uchitel will be on the show, but Donald usually gets his way.

'Glee' Stars Stayed Up All Night For 'Thriller' Cover

Michael Douglas on 'Today Show': "The Tumor Is Gone"

Academy Award winner Michael Douglas had some good news for the Today show's Matt Lauer. The life-threatening tumor at the base of his tongue is completely gone, and the actor is cautiously optimistic about his new odds of beating the stage-four throat cancer he was diagnosed with this past August.

"I feel good, relieved," Douglas said in an interview that aired Tuesday. "The tumor is gone. I have to check it out on a monthly basis to maintain (this good diagnosis). There’s not a total euphoria. It’ll probably take a couple more months of getting checked out to feel that."

Watch Lauer's interview with Douglas below:

 

 

After six months of intensive chemotherapy and radiation, during which it became increasingly difficult for the actor to eat, Douglas lost 32 lbs. He insists he's doing much better now, saying he’s put 12 lbs. back on and is "eating like a pig."

Douglas says his battle with the life-threatening illness brought "a new depth" to his relationships. "All of a sudden the affection from my family, from my friends, and from my fans, hit be at a much deeper level than I would’ve ever imagined before," he said.

His two kids with Catherine Zeta-Jones, son Dylan, 10, and daughter Carys, 8, accompanied their father to many of his treatments. Douglas expressed his disdain for the paparazzi imposing on his children’s personal space, and seemingly, "enjoying watching (him) go down."

The actor -- who's nominated for a best supporting actor Golden Globe for Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps at the Jan. 16 ceremony -- said cancer put a timeline on his life, and though he feels he’s beaten it, he realizes at age 66, he’s entering the "third act" and is conscious of how to spend his time.

We wish him a continued recovery.

Sarah Palin's Escalating Stalker Woes

Not going away without a fight, it is being reported that the man who?s been accused of stalking Sarah Palin has plans to visit Alaska.

Federal agents learned that Shawn Christy told family members of his intention to travel to Wasilla in hopes of removing the restraining order issued against him.

A legal order was given to him to stay away from Palin and her close friend, Kristan Cole, after he sent them threatening emails and letters.

Shawn - who lives in Pennsylvania - has not been spotted in Alaska so far, but has already filed a motion to remove the protective order, while Cole recently filed new documents in hopes of blocking the stalker from ?dissolving? the restraining order.
