Dina appeared on the "Today" show this morning with Matt Lauer -- and talked all things Lindsay ... including our video of Lindsay shopping yesterday, an endeavor that Dina says was BF approved.

The letter contains a laundry list of complaints against the site, among their objections:

-- The exploitation of Michael’s elderly mother in the marketing, selling and merchandising from the Jackson Vault.

-- The use and brokering of Michael Jackson’s children to promote events, merchandise and interviews.

-- The use of the demeaning term, “Jacko” in the Jackson Vault website and press release. A degrading term that Michael himself, spoke openly against and thought was insulting.

Uchitel filed a small claims suit this week against Oceanside Traditional Living in Malibu -- her second lawsuit against the facility in a month -- claiming they're refusing to refund her $1,500 security deposit.

But a rep for the Oceanside paints a very different picture. They tell us Rachel's pup peed and pooped with abandon and she didn't clean it up.

Oceanside tells us it took a professional carpet and couch cleaner to get the stench out.

The song -- "Breaking News" -- was recorded in 2007, at the New Jersey home of Eddie Cascio. Jackson and his kids lived in the house for 4 months while Michael was recording. We're told Prince, Paris and Katherine now believe the Cascio tracks are fake -- not Michael's voice.

But Sony has done a bunch of voice authentications, and the record company is convinced it's the real deal. So a teaser will be released tomorrow, and the full song will be on the MJ website for one week, beginning Monday.

Mel is featured on a newly released poster for his upcoming Jodie Foster directed flick "The Beaver."

In the shot, Mel's holding a sign that reads, "This person is under the care of a prescription puppet."

At the end of last night's episode of the Discovery reality show viewers were told Hughes died in May due to complications from a fatal injury at his home in Kansas.

TMZ confirmed with Valley Center PD ... on May 14 they responded to a suicide call at Hughes' home. According to the police report, officers concluded Matt, who was still breathing, was drinking before the suicide attempt.

We're told Matt was taken to a local hospital -- but passed away 13 days later. The Medical Examiner's report lists "Hanging" as the cause of death.

The 60-year-old former teen idol was spotted weaving on and off the road a number of times on Florida's Turnpike around 8:00 PM ... and was eventually pulled over by a member of the Florida Highway Patrol.

According to cops, Cassidy told the trooper that he'd had a glass of wine around lunch time and popped a hydrocodone painkiller a few hours before the arrest.

In his report, The trooper claims he instructed Cassidy to get out of the car -- and dude was "swaying while standing." Cassidy took a breath test and blew a 0.139 and 0.141 -- way over the .08 legal limit.

The trooper then searched the car and turned up a half empty bottle of Labrot Graham Woodford Reserve Kentucky Bourbon in the back seat.

We're told Cassidy was taken to a nearby jail and booked for DUI. He was released this morning at 3:22 AM on a $350 bond.

David Cassidy is adamant that he was NOT hammered on booze when he got behind the wheel in Florida last night ... and says he plans to fight the DUI charges tooth and nail.

David's rep, Jo-Ann Geffen, tells TMZ ... the former teen idol admits he did take a pain pill for his back earlier in the day -- and may have been tired from an early morning funeral he had to attend -- but he definitely wasn't drunk.

Cassidy is also disputing the results of the two breathalyzer tests he took at the time of arrest -- insisting his true blood alcohol content was not properly measured.

Cassidy's rep tells us the actor is already on the hunt for a lawyer and plans to fight the charges adding, "He would never jeopardize anyone on the road and he would not have been driving had he not had to go to a funeral ... he's never been arrested in his life before for anything."

Bored with regular playthings, 50 Cent grabbed half-a-million dollars in $100 bills yesterday and played with it like Legos .... because he can.

Fiddy was braggin' about his wealth on Twitter yesterday, posting all sorts of cash-heavy photos along with captions like, "Holy sh*t bat man I think I'm rich" ... and "Who said I don't have a heart."

Someone has a lot of time ... and money ... on their hands.

We didn't think it was possible for Halle Berry to take a bad picture -- but yesterday, she managed to pull it off!

With her face covered in prosthetics and sporting huge fake breast implants, Berry filmed her new flick "Truth or Dare" yesterday in L.A.

The flick is being directed by one half of the Farrelly Brothers, Peter Farrelly.

Can you guess whose pretty puss got a nasty celebrity scramblin'?

Don't let David's dreamy face distract you -- 'cause you've got some differences to spot!

The rapper was released this morning from Rikers Island jail in New York City ... after serving 8 months of his 1-year sentence, according to the NYC Department of Correction website.

As we previously reported, Weezy pled guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon last year ... stemming from a 2007 traffic stop of his tour bus. He was sentenced in March.

Young money.

The world tour is a partnership between the MJ Estate and Cirque -- each sharing 50% of the profits. It will kick off in the Fall of next year in Canada, and work its way south to the US of A.

The show will end up with a permanent home at the MGM Mirage hotel in Las Vegas -- probably in late 2012. Cirque has already released sketches of what the show will look like.

Here's what we know ... The deposition got so contentious and loud among the lawyers ... people in the office building heard the noise. Sources say at one point, Oksana's lawyer, Daniel Horowitz, accused Mel of winking at him -- a comment the judge promptly struck from the record.

Horowitz then said on the record ... he believed Mel clenched his left fist. Again, the judge struck the comment from the record.

What's interesting ... the proof is in the video, which was rolling during the whole depo. But as far as we know, there's no evidence Mel clenched it.

The 32-year-old was found by a hotel employee around 10:00 this morning.

According to reports, Irons had planned to travel back to his home in Hawaii -- but fell ill and that's why he booked his room in Dallas.

The local medical examiner tells us an official cause of death has not been determined.

The Irons family has released a statement saying, "[Andy] had reportedly been battling with dengue fever, a viral disease."

Levi -- who's plotting his own quest for public office in Wasilla, Alaska -- is responding to a statement Palin made earlier this week in which she said she would run for Prez, "If there's nobody else to do it."

Johnston tells us, "That makes no sense because someone always runs for President" ... adding, "[Sarah] wouldn't go through with a campaign even if she was nominated."

As for Johnston's political stance -- we're told Levi's "leaning towards McAdams" ... the Democratic candidate for Senate in Alaska ... who's running against Palin-backed Republican Joe Miller.

Oprah's big interview with MJ's kids -- Prince, Paris, and Blanket -- is scheduled to air next Monday ... but according to Oprah's website, the talk show host is airing a show the Friday before entitled "200 Adult Men Who Were Molested Come Forward."

Interestingly ... the Jacksons had beef with Oprah over her programming decisions back in 2005 ... when she did a show on pedophilia during jury deliberations in Michael Jackson's molestation trial.

As we previously reported, Oksana was writing notes and strategizing with her lawyers about how to grill Mel in their bitter custody battle ... and judging from her hand signal, she was pleased with the results.

TMZ has learned ... Mel somehow got in the Century City office building where the deposition is taking place without being noticed. It went for three hours this morning, before everyone took a lunch break.

Sources say Oksana has been writing notes and speaking with her lawyers about questions they're firing at Mel.

It's the first time Mel and Oksana have been face-to-face since their custody war erupted.
