Michael Jackson's mother Katherine is currently in the midst of a wrongful death suit against tour promoter AEG Live, which she claims was responsible for the death of her son because the company hired embattled doctor Conrad Murray to look after him. But now she has something new to worry about.

Seems Debbie Rowe, Michael's ex-wife and the mother of his children Prince and Paris, is set to testify -- but lawyers are concerned she might say under oath that Michael is not the kids' biological father.

In response, Colbert took on the gay marriage issue in similar fashion, joining forces with the always adorable Alan Cumming for a song called 'Oopsie-Daisy Homophobe.'

Something tells us not a lot of children in the 'Sesame Street' age demographic watch Jon Hamm on 'Mad Men' or understand why he's a particularly fine specimen of manhood. Regardless, the actor went onto the kids' show and joined Elmo to teach the word of the day: sculpture.

As in, "Doesn't that sculpture of Michelangelo's David remind you of Jon Hamm?"

Ian Ziering, who played Steve for a decade on Aaron Spelling's '90s hit 'Beverly Hills, 90210,' has fulfilled a lifelong dream: becoming a Chippendales dancer. (We're pretty sure that was the goal of the dude who invented penicillin too.)

The 49-year-old actor will take the stage June 6 in Las Vegas as the guest headliner for the all-male revue. So, ladies and gentlemen of a certain persuasion, get your tickets and your singles ready.

After Justin Bieber angered everyone (well, almost everyone) by hoping that teenage holocaust victim Anne Frank would have been a Belieber, the writing staff at 'Conan' decided to imagine what it would be like if the tween sensation wrote messages to other historical figures.
