Janet Jackson Drives Through Studio City, Judge Mathis Sounds Mean; Miley Cyrus Looks Very Pretty, Eddie Murphy at The Bean

A fan of Studio City Patch spotted Janet Jackson driving around The S.C. recently. It wasn't far from where Justin Bieber was known to live, so at first, the star-spotter thought it was the young one in another fancy car. Then, they got a look at the driver.

It was Jackson driving through town, north on Vineland Avenue and Ventura Boulevard, last week, not Bieber this time (who has a place near the intersection), and maybe she was seeking out her old friend, newlywed Justin Timberlake who lives up on the hill . . . 

Eddie Murphy was seen at the Coffee Bean lately while he was filming Spike TV's Eddie Murphy: One Night Only special where he was going to be joined by his friends Stevie Wonder (who lives up on the hill in Studio City and votes in a local precinct at a school), and other local residents Russell Brand and Sam Jackson.

Murphy was at the Bean with his new main squeeze, Australian model Paige Butler, who also lives in the area. . . .

Miley Cyrus (who was on again in her recurring role on Two and A Half Men) was strolling around Studio City this week with her boyfriend, Liam Hemsworth (see photo). So far, everyone seems to love her new short haircut. . . . 

Judge Mathis from the Warner Bros. TV show, was hanging around this club on Ventura Boulevard, according to Tweeter Corey Holcomb and he told the DJ when he walked in "let them know judge Mathis in da house." Then, he became a bit pushy while inside, but didn't create any more of a scene . . .
