Rowe, in court papers filed Tuesday, presents a copy of a letter she says was written by the counsel of Katherine Jackson -- Prince and Paris' grandmother and guardian -- in which Katherine requests that Michael's estate pay for Rowe's "reasonable attorneys fees relating to the guardianship [of Michael Jackson's children.]"
"Deborah Rowe and her attorney were very cooperative in helping the guardianship action go smoothly," the letter adds.

Carrie Underwood is opening up exclusively to ET in her first interview since getting married to hockey star Mike Fisher. The Grammy winner is Olay's new celebrity ambassador, and taking the skin care company's slogan "Challenge What's Possible" to heart, she's talking about her career, married life -- and the possibility of babies in the future!

"Everybody asks, 'How's married life?' and pretty much it's about like dating life -- you get married and there's a big hoopla and you go on your honeymoon and then you get back to work, which is good, because we're very focused people and we love what we do."

Michael Douglas told Parade magazine he had no choice but to go public with his cancer.
"When you are a celebrity, nothing remains secret for very long. If it helps bring attention, then that is a major upside to this whole thing," the 'Wall Street' actor told the publication. "Millions of families are going through the same thing my family and I are now going through. If I can bring any relief or encouragement, that's the good news."
Douglas said despite the trials that have come his way, he remains positive. "Life is not all ha-ha-ha. But I'm in good spirits. I'm an optimistic guy. Nothing has deterred me from my belief that I am going to beat this. My doctors' prognosis is for a full recovery. I have no reason to doubt them."

The judge presiding over former "Desperate Housewives" star Nicollette Sheridan's lawsuit against series creator Marc Cherry and ABC may have made a decision benefiting the actress.
Reuters reports that Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elizabeth Allen White rejected ABC's complaint that one of the causes of action mentioned in the suit is nebulous. The network attempted to get one of the accusations thrown out because it involves three claims: discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation and age.
In response, Judge White wrote in a tentative order: "Although annoying, inconvenient and inconsiderate, the failure to separate the three distinct wrongs does not result in an inability to understand what is alleged."
