Julianna Margulies 'Good Wife' In Bad Trouble Headed For Trial
Julianna Margulies just flamed out in court ... and she'll have to face a jury for allegedly screwing her former managers over.
A judge just rejected her motion to dismiss a lawsuit filed by D/F Management. The company claimed in a lawsuit it filed against her that they secured her roles in both "The Good Wife" and a L'Oreal deal that made Julianna the spokesperson.
The judge ruled that there's enough evidence to warrant the case going to trial.
D/F Management accuses Julianna of firing them and then cutting off their 10% commission on the show and the commercial. D/F wants $420,000 in back commissions and they also want a cut of her future earnings.
The trial date has not been set.
Chris Brown's Panty-Dropping Fan ... Thong Was NOT Used
We now know why Chris Brown kept the silky panties some chick handed him while performing on stage Saturday -- the chick is SUPER HOT, and her panties came unused ... but sweaty.
TMZ has learned the undies tosser is 21-year-old Carol Quiroz -- and she tells us she's such a HUGE CB fan ... she had to make her presence known at the Anaheim show Saturday night.
Carol says her plan was simple ... "I wrote my name, number and Instagram on the thong in permanent marker. I got his attention and handed it to him."
Groupie 101.
Carol also cleared up the most important detail -- the panties were NOT used, but she admits she was holding on to them in her bra. "I definitely had boob sweat on the panties."
For the record ... Carol says Chris hasn't contacted her. Yet.

Miss USA Erin Brady Gets Fishy After Winning Crown
After winning the Miss USA crown Erin Brady did what any starving beauty queen would do -- EAT ... well, kinda.
Our beauty queen spies tell TMZ ... Erin keeps her body right and tight by eating healthy (like all the time) ... which is why the 25-year-old noshed on a beet salad and spicy tuna on crispy rice as her first post-pageant meal.
Gorging on a burger didn't even cross Erin's mind ... she's a sweet over salty person. But the one thing she is craving: a hot fudge sundae, with ALL the toppings ... but for now, that's just unrequited love.

Tanning Mom Enters Rehab For Booze
45-year-old Tanning Mom has entered rehab for alcohol abuse, TMZ has learned.
Sources close to Patricia Krentcil -- who famously faced child endangerment charges last year after allegedly putting her 5-year-old in a tanning booth -- tell us she entered Lukens Institute in Palm Beach Thursday night.
We're told Tanning Mom realized she had hit rock bottom after she was placed in detox for 30 hours at an airport in Minneapolis last week ... for being way too drunk to fly.
Of course, TM has had a few public drunken incidents -- last August she was a wasted, stumbling, panty-flashing mess at a gay nightclub in NYC. 'Memba that? So it's not a huge surprise.
As for why she ended up at Lukens -- a rehab center endorsed by Michael Lohan -- we're told TM reached out to Michael about treatment because the two went to high school together ... and she heard Michael mention Lukens' unique treatment and success in a recent interview.
Krentcil will remain in treatment for 30 days.

Miss Utah RIDDLE TIME And She Kinda Nails It???
She already (kinda) redeemed herself for that infamous pageant flub -- so yesterday, we decided to pelt the beautiful Miss Utah with some brain-twisting riddles instead ... and she actually did pretty damn well.
21-year-old Marissa Powell had just touched down in L.A. for her appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" -- and while she was at the airport, we asked her a bunch of questions to test her wits on the fly ... such as the classic "Who is buried in Grant's tomb?" and "What can you put in a bucket of water to make it lighter?"
She doesn't exactly get them right, but she doesn't exactly get them wrong either. Then again, she could probably say anything and we'd be happy.
HOT CHICKS!! HOT CHICKS!! HOT CHICKS!!
