Britney's Court Date May Have Been Costly
Britney Spears decided to reward herself after her court date was postponed today -- by going on a shopping trip to a jewelry store!
The weaved wonder just finished up a shopping stint in Calabasas, where she hit up the local Barnes & Noble -- yes, the bookstore -- and a nearby jewelry joint, which was closed down so she could peruse the goods.
As TMZ previously reported, Britney's conservatorship hearing -- which she was supposed to attend -- was called off after it became apparent the media attention would be overbearing.

Usher: Thief Stole $1 Mil in Jewelry - from My Car
Usher claims he was the victim of a serious Christmastime jewel heist -- when someone jacked $1,000,000 in jewelry from the back of his car!
It all went down in Atlanta on December 14th -- Usher and a friend were in an AT&T store when someone broke into his GMC Yukon and took whatever they could get.
According to the police report, Usher claims the bandit made off with all sorts of Xmas gifts and personal belongings including $50,000 in furs, a computer and more than a million bucks in jewelry that he happened to have in the car at the time.
Usher told police he's worried about some never-before heard voice tracks that were on the computer.
An AT&T employee claims she saw the whole thing go down, but when contacted by MyFOXAtlanta -- she claims she's too afraid to talk about it for fear of retaliation.

Tiger: I Need a 'Kobe Special'
Tiger Woods had a "Kobe Special" on his brain hours after what looks like a domestic dispute with his wife, Elin Nordegren -- this according to someone who spoke with Tiger on Friday.
During the phone conversation on Friday, Tiger told his friend, "I have to run to Zales to get a 'Kobe Special.'" The person on the other end of the phone asked Tiger what a "Kobe Special" was. The reply -- "A house on a finger."
During the conversation, Tiger said his wife had "gone ghetto" on him.
As we first reported, Tiger told the friend his wife had scratched his face up during an argument over a report that the golf great had cheated on her. The "other woman" named in the story -- Rachel Uchitel -- calls the report "bulls**t."
Of course, the Kobe reference is the now-famous house/ring he gave his wife Vanessa after the whole Colorado thing. We're assuming Tiger was joking, though he can certainly afford it.

Katt Williams -- I Was a Guest, Not a Burglar!
Katt Williams was not burglarizing anyone and his arrest for same is totally bogus -- according to Katt's lawyer.
William Briggs told TMZ Katt was in Georgia shooting a movie, staying at the property of a friend and the movie's producer, Barry Hankerson.
Briggs says the reason his client was busted is because he was involved in a dispute with one of Barry's employees who lives in the guesthouse. The vengeful employee called the cops and reported a faux burglary, Briggs says. Briggs adds Katt had "full permission" to be on the property and has been staying there for the last 3 weeks.
Katt is still in custody. There's a bail hearing set for 4 PM ET.
UPDATE: Katt's bond was set at $41,150.

Paris Lashes Out at 'Scumbags'
Before cops showed up at Paris Hilton's home last night, she once again trashed the people who broke into it.
Outside Philippe, Paris tore into the Burglar Bunch -- who allegedly stole $2 million worth of property from her -- calling them "dirty rotten thieves" and "scumbags" who deserve 10 years in the slammer.
As we previously reported, several of the suspects have had run-ins with the law before -- and if they're found guilty, they could be S.O.L.

Paris on Burglar Bunch: 'I Hate Them!'
Hate is a strong word -- but according to Paris Hilton, the word perfectly describes the way she feels about the members of the Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch who allegedly stole more than $2 million worth of her jewelry. 
We got the iced up heiress last night at Mr. Chow, where she was spewing "hate" towards the merry band of jewelry snatchers.
Fellow target Audrina Patridge was out too, saying "They're going to have to face the consequences" -- which right now amounts to a helluva lot of felony charges.

Soulja Boy Exposes the Family Jewels
In what may be considered one of the dumbest displays of wealth of all time, Soulja Boy just showed the entire planet that he keeps tens of thousands of dollars in an unprotected shoe box in his apartment.
Oh yeah -- did we mention he was just robbed back in December? 
SB just posted the arrogant rant on his Twitter page, in response to the story we ran yesterday -- that the rapper's landlord accused him of owing nearly $10,000 in unpaid bills.
So, feeling the need to prove his worth, Soulja whipped out a cache of cheesy-but-expensive jewelry and wads upon wads of $100 bills while one of his friends gave the following play-by-play: "wow .... wow ... wow ... wow."
Hopefully, SB takes a few of those unprotected bills and invests in a bodyguard.
NBA Star Accused of Having Some Giant Stones
Every potential NBA draftee wants to look their best on draft night, but a jewelry company in L.A. claims Memphis Grizzlies star O.J. Mayo wore a ton of ice he never paid for.
According to a lawsuit filed Thursday, O.J. asked Prime Mountings to make a series of jewelry items, some of which he intended to wear to the NBA Draft. Prime says O.J. took the items promising to pay when he signed his first NBA contract -- and also promised he would "be purchasing a lot more jewelry ... in the future."
But alas, Prime claims O.J. never delivered on his promise and, in fact, never paid him the nearly $150K he owed them in the first place.
They are looking for the money they say they're owed, plus additional damages.

ELLE Doesn't Think LiLo Has Sticky Fingers
Just because $500,000 worth of jewelry went missing from Lindsay Lohan's photo shoot with ELLE magazine doesn't mean the people at ELLE think she's a thief -- even if Scotland Yard is investigating her. 
A spokeswoman for ELLE gave us this statement:
"I can confirm on behalf of ELLE magazine that items of jewelry went missing from an ELLE photo shoot two weeks ago and the matter is now being investigated by the police. ELLE has no reason to believe that Lindsay Lohan was in any way responsible and has no further comment to make."

Rihanna Jewels Released from Custody!
Rihanna's jewelry is going to be free!
As you probably know, she was wearing $1.4 mil in borrowed jewelry when she was allegedly beaten by Chris Brown. She was supposed to give it back to the jeweler a while back -- but it's been held by the cops since Brown's arrest.
Today the judge ruled the jewels can go back to their rightful owner. The LAPD will take photos of the bling in case it's used as evidence in the trial. But expect a plea bargain.
Brown's lawyer, Mark Geragos, also asked the judge to order the LAPD to turn over the investigative reports on the leaked photo.

Rihanna Could Score Bling in Court
Our sources say tomorrow's Chris Brown hearing will not end with a plea bargain, although we know both sides are deep in discussion. But it looks like Rihanna could score something big.
Rihanna's lawyer is asking the judge to release the jewelry Rihanna was wearing when she was beaten. The jewelry was taken as evidence just after the beating and she wants it back -- it was on loan from jewelers and they either want her to fork it over or pay $1.4 mil.
We're told the cops would like to return it as well. There are reports the D.A. is objecting to returning it --
reportedly for leverage so Rihanna will cooperate. But our sources say the D.A. has not taken a position.
Rihanna's lawyer and Brown's lawyer want to take photos of the jewelry and use them if the jewelry ever becomes evidence in a trial. But legally, her lawyer doesn't have authority to appear in Brown's case -- in legalese her lawyer doesn't have "standing." So the judge could simply refuse to hear Rihanna's lawyer.
Will the judge release the hostage jewelry? Stay tuned! Hearing is tomorrow.

Rihanna to LAPD -- Gimme Back My Bling!
Rihanna lost more than her innocence the night she was allegedly beat up by Chris Brown -- she's also out $1.4 million in jewelry. 
RiRi is asking the cops to hand back a pair of earrings and three rings the cops logged as evidence on the night in question. And get this -- the jewelry isn't even hers. According to docs, the bling belonged to four companies which loaned it to her for the pre-Grammy party she attended with Brown that night.
Rihanna's attorney, Donald Etra, claims he asked for the jewelry back earlier this month and submitted written requests on April 7 and April 17. Etra also claims that Brown's attorney, Mark Geragos, has no problem with the jewelry being released.
The earrings are described as yellow metal hoop earrings with white stones. The first ring is a yellow metal ring with white stones and green stones. The second and third rings are described as being yellow metal rings with white stones.
Brown faces a felony assault charge and a charge of making criminal threats.
