NAMES & FACES

Jackson Memorial Details

Want to attend Tuesday's Michael Jackson memorial at the Staples Center in Los Angeles? The Anschutz Entertainment Group, owner of the stadium, will give away 17,500 tickets through http://staplescenter.com, Reuters reports, up from 11,000 announced earlier.

An area around the stadium will be sealed off from non-ticket holders, but police are concerned that 700,000 will crash the service, the Associated Press reports. MTV.com reports that overwhelming response has already crashed the Staples Web site.

The stadium holds 20,000, and undisclosed number of tickets will go for an overflow venue, nearby Nokia Theater. The event will be aired live on MTV, VH1 and VH1 Classic.

Memorial details have yet to emerge, but, as California struggles with a historic budget shortfall, Los Angeles public officials are facing tough questions about its cost.

Domestic Disturbance

After locking her husband out of their Utah home and showering responding officers with expletives Wednesday, Gary Coleman's wife, Shannon Price, was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence and disorderly conduct, the New York Daily News reports. Santaquin police reported that, though his bedroom had been trashed, the 41-year-old former star of "Diff'rent Strokes" was unharmed. The couple, who met while filming the 2006 comedy "Church Ball" and married five months later, planned to call it quits on a 2008 episode of "Divorce Court" but reconciled. Price, 23, has been released on bail.

With the 70th anniversary of "The Wizard of Oz" upon us, "So You Think You Can Dance" producer Nigel Lythgoe confirmed that Katie Holmes will appear in a tribute to Judy Garland on the 100th episode of the popular reality show, AP reports. Holmes will perform the Garland signature tune "Get Happy" (Oz-heads note: "Get Happy" composer Harold Arlen also penned "Over the Rainbow") on the program, which airs July 23, to benefit Dizzy Feet, a Holmes-helmed nonprofit group that provides dance scholarships to disadvantaged children.
