Sources close to Brooke tell TMZ, Charlie's former mother- and father-in-law are uprooting themselves from Florida to make the trip -- and they're looking for a more permanent place in L.A. at this very moment.

As we previously reported, Charlie and Brooke struck a custody agreement on Thursday -- the terms of which remain confidential ... but it seems Brooke could use some help.

We're also told Brooke is launching a new anti-publicity campaign -- insisting she will make a better effort to shield her kids from the media storm surrounding their father.

So far, no official word from Brooke.

Ironically, the guy Tarantino is feuding with is another Academy Award winning writer -- Alan Ball -- the guy who wrote "American Beauty" and created "True Blood."

According to Quentin's lawsuit, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, Tarantino claims ever since Ball installed an "exotic bird menagerie" -- Quentin has been forced to endure the "obnoxious pteradactyl-like screams" of the macaw birds.

In fact, Q claims the noise has "seriously disrupted [his] ability to work as a writer in his home."

Charlie's kids were taken from his home last night after Brooke Mueller obtained a court order which temporarily stripped Charlie of any custodial rights.

Charlie sent a nanny over to Brooke's home in the Los Feliz area of L.A., to check on the kids, but no one was there.

Charlie believes Brooke is on crack cocaine and feels she's a danger to the twins.

Brooke went to the Beverly Hills Police Department a short time ago to ask for help in getting the kids, but she was told Charlie doesn't live in Bev Hills so she was at the wrong police department.

Mike Walters from TMZ was at Charlie's house yesterday and saw the twins there. We're told the twins are living with Charlie full-time ... sources connected with Charlie say he's worried about her sobriety.

We're told Brooke was supposed to spend two hours with the kids today.

Basically, Rosie is pissed that ex-hubby/bodyguard Ben Thomas wants the comic to pay for him to fly out to Hawaii for 10 days every month -- along with a new wife he met in the Philippines -- so Ben can visit the former couple's 15-year-old son.

Roseanne claims when she decided to move to Hawaii, she always expected to pay for Ben to fly out to visit their kid -- but "him alone."

Dina landed at LAX this afternoon with her other children: Ali, Michael Jr., and Cody. Lindsay hasn't seen them since she got out of rehab, so she's overdue for a little QT with the fam.

In the big Super Bowl episode last night, Dina Lohan was included on a fictional list of "losers of the year" -- this after the show called Lindsay "crazy" in an episode last November.

Sources close to Lindsay tell TMZ she feels the show should "mind its own business" and "stop picking on their family."

Deion's team took on a team coached by Snoop Dogg in something called the Snooper Bowl (so it shouldn't come as a surprise that Snoop's team won in a landslide).

We're told Deion got calls early in the morning asking him to show up for the announcement -- but Deion told them the kids came first and he didn't want to disappoint them.

LaRue issued a formal mea culpa in L.A. yesterday -- telling TMZ, "To Jane Fonda, sadly I'm your third cousin ... The gene pool has obviously been quite screwed up since you. I'm so sorry."

We've learned Kate's lawyers filed a Petition for Contempt of Custody Order last Thursday.

Sources connected with the case tell TMZ ... Kate believes Jon is squarely violating the judge's custody order -- prohibiting either of them from talking about the case -- by allegedly selling information about the case and tweeting his displeasure of the judge's various decisions.

We're told Kate is claiming Jon is willfully disobeying the orders, mostly to make a buck, and she wants the judge to modify the custody agreement to protect the kids from their alleged money-grubbing dad.

TMZ spoke to police in Broadview Heights, Ohio ... who confirm Keyshia's nephew was arrested on December 2 in KC's Mercedes SUV. We're told during the arrest -- the suspect told cops, "I'm Keyshia Cole's nephew" .... but the cops weren't impressed and arrested him anyway.

Keyshia's car was immediately impounded and taken to a nearby lot -- where it remains under a foot of snow because she still hasn't picked it up.

Sources connected to the car tell us ... it's gonna take at least $700 -- plus court fees -- before Keyshia can free her whip.

Sources close to Demi tell us the singer will be meeting with her family at some point tomorrow to have dinner "outside the facility". We're told she will return to the treatment center that night to continue with her program.

Goodwin claimed yesterday she started WW 23 years ago, back when she was 9 -- but there was a big policy change in 2003 ... The company line now is that it's potentially dangerous for kids under 10 to join the program.

Dr. Suparna Jain -- a pediatric endocrinologist -- tells us WW is wise not to give its stamp of approval to anyone under 10, because the diet does not provide enough calcium and protein for a growing body. The Weight Watchers program is predicated on calories, fiber and fat, not fundamental nutrients.

Sources close to Lindsay tell TMZ, Dina's hauling the little Lohans -- Ali, Michael, and Cody -- out from Long Island to visit for a couple days next week.

Lindsay originally wanted to fly back east ... and Betty Ford officials signed off -- but sources tell us, the L.A. County Probation Department wasn't so understanding.

According to the resort, they also sampled Butterbeer, got fitted for wands at Ollivanders and toured Hogwarts Castle.
