Beliebers, you can all breathe easy now!

Justin Bieber is in the clear! The Los Angeles County District Attorney has rejected the star’s hit-and-run charges!

The case revolved around a paparazzo claiming that JB had gotten WAY too close to him upon leaving a West Hollywood nightclub last month before allegedly fleeing the scene.

Though Justin had previously been cleared by LAPD, the DA was asked to give the case a look over, only to come to the same conclusion. According to prosecutors, there was “"insufficient evidence to prove that Bieber knowingly left the scene of a collision in which someone was injured."

PHEW! Close one, Biebs!

Now, please, please, please stay out of trouble!

Chris Brown is having the worst week ever!!!

First the meanies down at City Hall painted over his AH-Mazing street art, and then his pride was wounded after a sponsor dropped out of his concert tour!

Now, the Don't Judge Me singer might be in serious legal trouble because the District Attorney wants to revoke the probation he was sentenced to after mercilessly beating Rihanna in 2009.

The reason!? Breezy's connection to an apparent hit-and-run way back in May!

The court documents filed say the singer "willfully and unlawfully" effed up when he

Ruh roh! Justin Bieber's in troouubbblleee.

While loyal friendsie Tyler, The Creator tried to take the blame for driving at INSANE speeds in Bieby's decked out Ferrari on Memorial Day, the L.A. County D.A. isn't having any of it!

In fact, they've just sent over a criminal case targeting Justin!

But don't get TOO upset Beliebers because it is HIGHly unlikely that the D.A. will prosecute Biebs. Fortunately, the only weak evidence they have is one witness claiming that the tokin' pop star was behind the speedy wheel.

Can't argue with video footage, even if it's possible that JB could've switched seats with his pal.

Thankfully, "what if" scenarios don't stand up very well in the court of law. Phew!!!

That lil' man would NOT hold up behind bars…

We can only imagine the nightmares he'd face in the slammer and they probs wouldn't let him Instagram! What a travesty that would be. LOLz!

According to police officers, both of them were left battered and bruised after the brawl and the two were taken into custody for suspicion of felony domestic violence.

The pop star/telenovela actor and his partner Ben had

So we STILL don't know when Lindsay Lohan's case will be called!

But that doesn't even matter! Because it looks as though the troubled, hard-pAArtying and legally-challenged starlet will FINALLY admit her guilt in lying to police at the scene of her PCH car accident last summer, as she and her lawyer, Mark Heller, have been in Judge Dabney's chambers with the District Attorney since she arrived 45 minutes late to court apparently hammering out a last-minute plea deal!

Witnesses say Lindsay's clearly been crying, while Prosecutor Terry White looks PISSED.

Guess we'll have to wait and see what the specifics are here, and what kind of punishment she'll be facing!

Here's hoping we'll know soon!

Jenna Dewan-Tatum has joined up with PETA to fight for a really important cause, one that can't fight for itself… animal rights!!

The lovely lady sent a letter (along with 30,000 other animal lovers) to the Riverside County District Attorney's Office asking that they bring charges against Global Captive Breeders (GCB).

PETA did an undercover investigation into GCB and found that more than 18,000 animals were kept in cruel conditions!

Chris Brown had some passionate peeps by his side when he was in court yesterday dealing with fraudulent community service claims, and we're not just talking about his formerly(?) abused girlfriend Rihanna!

After the hearing, Breezy's lawyer Mark Geragos publicly REAMED OUT the LA District Attorney's office for a good five minutes, claiming the motion the DA filed against Brown — a motion that alleges Chreezy faked reports detailing his community service in Virginia — is itself a "sloppy," falsified "travesty," and that they are unfairly "torturing" his client.

Mark raged:
