The Phil Spector Trial: We Watch Court TV So You Don't Have To (06/22)

June 26, 2007 11:19 AM ET

WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY?
LA criminologist Lynne Herold, the last witness for the prosecution, took the stand once more for cross-examination by the defense. Herold, who previously put Spector at close proximity to Lana Clarkson when she was shot, had to deal with a full-court press from Spector lawyer Linda Kenney-Baden, who asked Herold virtually identical questions over and over again in an attempt to reveal flaws in Herold's procedure.

IS THIS GOOD OR BAD FOR SPECTOR?
Both. While Kenney-Baden was successful in casting Herold's testimony as opinion rather than fact, her extremely aggressive questioning style came off as overbearing and was uncomfortable to watch.

HAIR & WARDROBE UPDATE:
Spector went for a blue theme, donning a navy-blue jacket and tie accented by a periwinkle shirt.

“Oh Sherrie”

Steve Perry | 1984

Steve Perry's girlfriend Sherrie Swafford was actually in the studio when Perry began writing this song--his lone Top Ten hit as a solo act--with two co-writers. The trio began at midnight one night with just "Oh, Sherrie!" and "hold on, hold on." Three hours later, they had a complete song. Swafford, however, had to wait until the next day to hear it. "Sherrie actually got tired and went to bed," Perry said. She also appeared in the video, but their relationship did not hold on for long.
