Meddling kids and Scooby Doo go hand-in-hand -- so it makes total sense that Michael Jackson's kids helped save a dog named Scooby Roo.
As we told you last month, Prince and Paris Jackson saw Scooby on the news and decided to help out. Well it worked -- Scooby was outfitted with a custom cart this weekend.
Fuzzy Rescue, the organization that rescued Scooby, tells us it will take about 1-2 weeks for him to get used to the car -- and he'll be running around in no time.

Dr. Arnold Klein came into the TMZ office today and for an hour and 45 minutes talked about all things Michael Jackson -- including his Propofol addiction, his penchant for peeing in public, MJ's family's futile attempt to intervene just days before Jackson's death and how Prince almost radically changed one of Jackson's biggest songs.
This is only a portion of the long interview ... more to come as fast as we can cut it!

Looking well after having heart surgery earlier this month, Elizabeth Taylor went to Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios in Los Angeles -- along with two of Michael Jackson's kids, Paris and Prince.
Liz didn't go on any of the rides.

Looking happy and healthy, Michael Jackson's three kids -- Paris, Prince Michael and "Blanket" -- spent the day with their longtime nanny Grace Rwaramba in L.A. on Wednesday.
In Grace's high school yearbook, she said she wanted to have her "own generation of Jackson 5" ... looks like she got pretty close.

Michael Jackson's kids just got to do something no Regular Joe has done since 1998 -- they saw Michael's 17-minute, 3-D film "Captain EO" at Disneyland.
Sources say Michael Jr., Paris and Prince were taken to the happiest place on Earth (the one in California) last Thursday by Michael's brother Jackie. While they were there, we're told the kids were shown a screening of "Captain EO" -- which the Mouse stopped playing in 1998 -- and "they loved" it.
According to Disney blog MiceAge.com, the kids were able to see the movie because on Tuesday, the "Honey I Shrunk the Audience show was quietly closed, and Imagineers moved in with a truckload of equipment used to install the Captain EO show for a special executive presentation."
The blog says "Honey" was up and running again by Saturday -- so you'll just have to catch "EO" on YouTube like the rest of us.

Here's "Gossip Girl" star Taylor Momsen (left) performing at some event last week -- and the legendary Prince back in the early 1980s (right).
One of them was 16-years-old when the photo was taken.

In the '80s, Denise Matthews aka Vanity became famous as the lead singer of Prince's all female trio Vanity 6 and starring in films like "Terror Train" and "The Last Dragon." Guess what she looks like now!

They're coming out of the woodwork -- someone else is trying to lay claim to Michael Jackson's kids.
A woman who goes by the name Claire Elisabeth Fields Cruise has filed three guardianship petitions -- one for each of MJ's three kids -- claiming "I am the biological mother of Prince Michael Jackson II and all of his siblings." Cruise also claims she's married to Michael Jackson "who is now deceased" -- but is also "engaged to Prince Michael Jackson II's biological father."
She also thinks she's the mother of one of Tom Cruise's kids.
Welcome to Neverland.

Only Prince can rent a home for $150,000 a month, leave behind a security deposit -- and the landlord doesn't know who to give it to.
According to a lawsuit filed in June, when Prince moved out of the home he rented in Beverly Hills, he left behind a $300,000 security deposit. 3121 Rep Inc., the company that claimed to have brokered the lease for Prince, has sued the owners to get the money back.
But the owners say Prince made all the payments himself -- 3121 was just an intermediary -- so the money should go straight to him.
Now the two sides are suing each other, with Prince caught in the middle -- 3121 wants the money they says is theirs, the owners just want their attorney's fees paid.
Meanwhile, Prince is probably sitting somewhere composing ballads, with no idea any of this is going on.

After playing a three night gig for Jay Leno and performing on his penultimate show, it's pretty obvious where Prince's late night loyalty lies -- but in case you're still not sure, this hand-written sign should drive the point home.
"Jay is the best. Even Paul Shafer [sic] knows."

While Prince was in Paris this week and Rihanna in NYC, both managed to have the same taste in Woody Woodpecker weaves and oversized shades.
This is what it sounds like when ... pop stars try to copy each other.

The artist known as Prince will also be known as defendant -- accused of some seriously cutthroat business tactics in a book deal gone sour.
According to a lawsuit filed yesterday in L.A. County Superior Court, a literary agency claims Prince chose them as his "exclusive agent with respect to the negotiations of a publishing deal" for a book called "21 Nights" and a special limited edition version.
In the documents, the agency claims in the final stages of the deal, Prince stopped calling them back -- and then went behind their back to finish the negotiations -- thus screwing the company out of it's 15% commission.
The agency is now suing for it's 15% -- about $200,000. Practically chump change for the Purple One.

Here's the artist currently known as Prince, 50, at an award show (left) -- and soap star Linda Dano, 65, a while back (right).
Only one of them wrote a romance novel under the name Felicia Gallant.

Hey everybody, Daniel from TMZ here. So last night Prince gave me his guitar ... and then some guy took it back.
I was lucky enough to sit front row during a taping of "The Tonight Show." I was there for one reason, and one reason only -- to see Prince. After suffering through Paul Giamatti and Emma Roberts, Prince came on and performed "Dreamer."
As the song was winding down, Prince took off his guitar and walked out into the crowd -- I had no idea what he was doing. He walked right up to me and just simply handed me his guitar and walked away. I stood there stunned for about 20 seconds while my friend Trent went nuts. We both kinda strummed the guitar before I turned around and held it up to the crowd triumphantly.
After another 30 seconds or so, someone came around and retrieved the guitar. Now, I was all excited about this whole thing -- calling and texting everyone I can think of. But when I came to work today, everyone said the same thing -- PRINCE OWES YOU A GUITAR. I believe Harvey's quote was, "You're a schmuck for giving it back."
So here's the question, does Prince owe me a guitar?

Seriously ... Prince's limo had customized rims with the Prince "symbol" in the center of each one.
