Amy Winehouse Autopsy results deemed inconclusive
According to police officials in London, the autopsy performed on late singer Amy Winehouse (who passed away Saturday at the age of 27) returned inconclusive results, and no cause of death has yet been established. They are now awaiting the results of toxicology tests, the results of which should be back in two to four weeks. Since police have determined there was no foul play involved in Winehouse’s death, her body was released to her family shortly after the conclusion of the autopsy. Her parents are reportedly planning on a private family memorial for her as soon as possible, perhaps as early as tomorrow. Fans continue to gather at the makeshift memorial set up for Winehouse across the street from the home where the Grammy-winning singer lived. Her father, Mitch Winehouse, addressed the crowd and thanked them for their outpouring of support. “Amy was about one thing and that was love,” he told the group. “Her whole life was devoted to her family and her friends and to you guys as well. I can’t tell you what this means to us. It really is making this a lot easier for us.”
Leighton Meester Sues Her Mom over Misused Money
Leighton has been sending her mother $7500 a month to care for her brother Alex who recently underwent brain surgery but apparently her mother has been using that money to spend on her own cosmetic surgeries. Leighton’s mother, Constance Meester, first sued Leighton saying they had an oral contract that demanded that Leighton send her mother $10,000 a month. When Leighton only sent $7,500 Constance threatened Leighton with a $3 million lawsuit. Leighton is suing her mom because she says that “oral contract” is false and the money she sends for her brother is being spent on Botox by her mother. So sad, her mother is so greedy. A source says of Leighton, “This whole thing’s been really tough on Leighton. Her only concern has always been taking care of her brother.” Now the actress’s mother is counter-suing and "claiming" she sacrificed everything for Leighton’s acting career. She also said Leighton attacked her with a bottle. The countersuit claims that since Leighton’s mother cannot work, she needs all that money from Leighton. Leighton has had a troubled relationship with her mother from the beginning. Literally. Leighton was born in a halfway house when her mother was serving time for conspiring with a drug ring and smuggling drugs.

Cutler defends Cavallari after breakup
Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler defended ex-fiancee Kristin Cavallari Monday, after the weekend revelation the pair had called off their engagement."Thank you all for the support, but if you talk bad about Kristin I will delete and block you. It's unnecessary and heartless," he wrote on his Facebook page. The Vanderbilt University grad also changed his relationship status on the social networking website to "Single" and replaced his profile pic, from a photo with his former love to a picture of him with his sister. "Also, don't say now I can play football, I could play football when I had her compared to when I don't. Football is the least of my worries, so have some respect," he added in his message. Cutler, 28, and Cavallari, 24, called off their four-month betrothal this weekend just days after they had partied away at their engagement celebration, People magazine reported Sunday. The pair began dating last fall and Cutler popped the question in April. The couple were reportedly planning a spring wedding and the former "Hills" star was preparing to move from Los Angeles to Chicago for the upcoming NFL season. After the shocking news of their split, the internet was ablaze with rumors Cavallari was dumped by the football star while other reports blamed Cutler for being too controlling of the blond beauty. "Thanks for the support. Love u guys," Cavallari tweeted late Sunday, without directly referencing the news.

Chris Says He Was Set Up
Chris Brown claims he's being set up and blamed for carving his initials into
the elevator at his Hollywood condo building. An accusation he says is not
true. He says a neighbor did it to make him look like a "reckless punk." Brown's neighbors do not like him at all and have complained to the building manager about noise, parking violations and the defacing of the elevator since the singer moved in a few months ago. Brown took to his twitter account to deny the allegations. As for the photos showing Brown parking in
handicapped spaces, Brown explained, "My parking spaces in my building that were assigned to me when I [bought] this crib are painted over with handicap and no
Parking signs." He added, "A person should be able to live in his or her own
company of their house! I'm barely home so these stories and accusations are so
childish!"

TV NEWS
Port Charles is the only burg in the ABC daytime-verse not heading to the sprawling void of the Internet -- probably thanks in some small part to the love of one Oscar-nominated actor. James Franco will return to "General Hospital" for his fourth stint as a guest since first heading to the series in fall 2009. Franco, who plays artist and serial killer Robert "Franco" Frank, returns to the series on Sept. 20 for what is being described as a "long-term" arc.
