Even Tila Tequila's own publicist doesn't want to deal with her anymore -- and we've learned she just quit, citing "recent events."

Jessica Cohen tells TMZ "Some matters need to remain private and away from media attention ... I realized we need to part ways while she deals with the loss of her fiancee."

Cohen's departure also means Tila's repping herself 'til she hires someone else.

This should be good.

TMZ has obtained Kelis' legal docs asking the judge to haul Nas into court and ask him why he shouldn't be held in contempt of court. According to Kelis' lawyer, disso queen Laura Wasser, Nas is behind in child and spousal support to the tune of $56,911.50.

According to legal papers, Nas has refused to pay any child support at all since December 1.

We've learned the estate of DJ AM has settled its lawsuit against the various companies it sued over the jet crash.

Although DJ -- aka Adam Goldstein -- survived the crash, the estate claimed the pain he suffered caused him to become re-addicted to drugs which ultimately caused his death.

The settlement, sources say, involve all defendants, including Clay Lacy Aviation, Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and Learjet.

Terms of the settlement are confidential.

TMZ has just obtained a letter filed this morning from Richard Cummins, Charlie Sheen's lawyer, in which the attorney asks the judge to handle the whole protective order modification in chambers, not in the courtroom.

Cummins writes, in his letter to the clerk which was filed with the court, "Obviously, both Ms. Sheen and Mr. Estevez do not wish this to become a media circus and would, as much as possible, like to have their privacy respected understanding that they are celebrity figures so there is a public interest and the necessity of media coverage."

Cummins says it's ok by him if there is one pool reporter in chambers who would then pass the info along to the other reporters waiting outside. There is no mention of whether the pool reporter would have access to a TV camera, but it's unlikely the judge would ever go for that.

As we first reported, Charlie and Brooke Mueller want the order of protection modified so they can have contact with each other in an attempt to save their marriage.

TMZ has learned the D.C. police -- with the help of cops in Arlington County, Virginia -- have executed a search warrant this morning at the home of Javaris Crittenton -- looking for the gun that may have been secretly wheeled out of the Washington Wizards locker room in a laundry basket.

Law enforcement tells us after Javaris and Gilbert Arenas drew guns on each other during a Christmas Eve standoff, witnesses believe they saw Javaris throw his gun into a laundry basket and someone from the organization wheeled it out.

We know there was surveillance video of people coming out of the locker room and cops are looking to see if they can spot the person who was pushing the cart.

Nevertheless, cops convinced a judge they had probable cause to search Crittenton's home -- we don't know if they found the gun.

On TMZ TV -- the day Simon announced he was leaving -- we floated Elton John as the guy who should take Simon's seat. After all, he knows music, he's certainly got the bitchy attitude, and he's British.

Now an "American Idol" spy tells us the talk on the set is ... Elton John!

Elton was a guest judge in season three of 'Idol.'

TMZ has learned MJ ordered the incredibly unique items for a London mansion he was supposed to live in during the run of his "This Is It" tour ... but he died before the Italian furniture maker -- Colombostile -- could deliver the goods.

Colombostile tells us they gave the $700,000 back to Katherine Jackson and they plan to auction the items off in the near future.

Among the items -- lavish sofas, a crystal-encrusted chair, a desk with a secret compartment and much more -- check out the gallery for more details. We're told Jacko bought one of the chairs specifically for his friend Elizabeth Taylor to sit in when she came to visit.

There's also a seashell-studded chair that was intended for MJ's "Little Mermaid" room -- we're guessing it was for his daughter Paris, but then again, ya never know...

UPDATE: Katherine Jackson's lawyer, Adam Streisand, tells TMZ, "It's an outrageous lie that Mrs. Jackson has received even a cent. She's never even heard of these people."

The Montville Township Police Department tells TMZ they responded to an emergency call made at 1:47 AM after a car struck a pole in Montville -- and when they arrived, Giuseppe "Joe" Giudice was at the scene.

We're told Joe was taken to the Morristown Memorial Hospital -- and after a blood sample was taken, Joe was charged with driving while intoxicated, reckless driving, careless driving, and failure to maintain a traffic lane.

Joe's problems didn't stop there. Cops say there were warrants out for his arrest in Clifton, NJ over some city ordinance violations -- so the MTPD handed Joe over to the Clifton PD, who locked him up and held him on $2,625 bail. He was released at 6:20 AM.

Nadya Suleman just got a serious spot from someone at the gym she was recently banned from -- someone committed to saving her body through the power of money.

TMZ has learned an anonymous benefactor rolled through a 24 Hour Fitness location in L.A. Wednesday afternoon and threw down enough cash to pay for a one-year gym membership for Octomom ... since she apparently couldn't afford to pay it herself.

As we first reported, Octo was cut off from the gym after she fell behind on her membership fees three separate times.

No word if the mystery man will spring for a sitter to tend to the 14 kids while Nadya continues to tend to herself.

On Monday night's show, Conan said he'd like to "work in a classier business with better people, like hard-core porn" -- and it appears one "classy business" was listening.

Adult film company Pink Visual sent Conan a letter officially offering the dude a job, saying there's a demand for "tall, lean, pale, male 'gingers' that have a David Caruso kind of thing going on."

Let's see Leno snatch this one from him.

Jesse McCartney wants everyone to know ... if you publish a nude photo of him -- even one that looks like him -- he'll sue you.

The photo is floating around ... showing what looks like a naked McCartney all by his lonesome, laying on a bed with a candy G-string, fully exposed. According to the New York Post, it's being shopped around by an angry ex. Someone sent it to TMZ on Dec. 22, but we did not publish it.

McCartney's lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, has fired off a

to any web site that would dare publish the photo.

Holley warns, "a person is attempting to circulate a nude photo which purports to be Mr. McCartney." She goes on, "McCartney was unaware of the taking of this alleged photo, did not knowingly participate in the taking of this photo, and certainly did not consent to the taking of such photo."

Holley says in the letter, "it appears that this photo has been manipulated and doctored by computer software."

Moments after Heidi Montag's newest chesticular operation, her assistant went into full panic mode after a camera containing photos of Heidi's bare jumblies went missing during an ambulance ride.

It all went down in November as Heidi was being transported from the hospital where she got the implants to a recovery center via a private ambulance company.

After Heidi was dropped off, her assistant realized a camera containing numerous photos -- mostly showing a topless Heidi during various stages of her new operation -- was M.I.A.

Sources say the assistant called in a red alert to the ambulance minutes after it left the recovery center and ordered the driver to turn around -- but she didn't tell the driver why.

As TMZ previously reported, Paris' younger bro was given a 2010 Mercedes E550 Coupe by his dad as a reward for getting his license back after his 2008 DUI bust -- and it was delivered Wednesday afternoon.

Within an hour of the car's delivery, Barron was already seen driving it -- with Rick riding shotty.

Best DUI gift EVER.

Gene Simmons is lashing out at the couple accusing him of being a violent, choke artist -- claiming he was the one who was accosted by a "tall, thin, tattooed" aggressor.

It's all over an incident outside of a movie theater in L.A. back in December -- in which Simmons claims he was walking with his family, when Nathaniel Marlowe and Cynthia Manzo "jumped at them and started yelling in their faces."

Simmons' attorney, Barry Mallen, tells TMZ Gene saw Marlowe point a "small electronic device" at his family, so he ripped away the device and "moved Marlowe aside" so the family could safely get to their car.

Days after the incident, the couple filed a lawsuit against Simmons, claiming assault, battery, emotional distress and more.

But Team Simmons claims the accusers are simply "opportunistic" and "riddled with distortions and false accusations."

The two sides are set to do battle in court sometime soon -- stay tuned.

Frank Pallone, Jr. (D-NJ) put the Snooki Gang on blast yesterday in D.C., saying the "Shore" kids give the notoriously clean Garden State "a bad image."

PS -- We asked him to fist pump for us ... didn't go so well.
