TMZ has learned ... Nadya Suleman completed her first day of XXX shooting at a porn mansion in the San Fernando Valley on Thursday ... and we're told things couldn't have gone better!!!
We're told Octo appeared nervous when she arrived to the home ... but after chatting with some other porn stars who were at the house, she seemed to calm down.
Before the shoot, producers decided it would be a good idea to screen some porno flicks for Octo as an educational tool ... so to speak.
But when it was time for Octo to get down to business ... with herself ... one source on the set tells us "She was a natural ... she looked great!!"
Hopefully Octo has a good babysitter -- 'cause she's due back on the set next week.

Snooki RIPPED By Tanning Mom You're Fat & Disgusting
More tan-on-tan aggression -- this time it's "Tanning Mom" firing back at Snooki ... claiming the reality star is "the biggest a**hole in the world" for criticizing her life decisions.
Patricia Krentcil -- who's been under fire for allegedly taking her 5-year-old daughter to a tanning salon -- was out in New Jersey yesterday ... when someone asked about the comments Snooki recently made to "Extra" -- "that b**ch is crazy."
Tanning Mom shot back ... saying, "She's the biggest a**hole in the world. She's fake, she's fat, her t*ts are fake, she's disgusting."
Yet, after all that ... she continued, "When this is all said and done, I'd like to meet up with 'Snoopy'."
Yes, she called her Snoopy ... and she probably owes Charles Schultz an apology.

Ted Nugent to Reporter: I'll S**k Your D**k, If ...
Ted Nugent WENT OFF on a male CBS news reporter during a sit-down interview this week ... claiming he's a "damned nice guy" ... and to prove it, he offered oral sex.
It all went down during a sit-down interview with Jeff Glor ... when Glor suggested he was not a moderate.
Nugent exploded, "I'm an extremely loving and passionate man, and people who investigate me honestly, without the baggage of political correctness, ascertain the conclusion that I'm a damned nice guy ... and if you can find a screening process more powerful than that, I'll s*ck your d**k."
Nugent then turned to Glor's female producer and said, "Or I'll f**k you, how's that sound?"
After the interview, Glor said Nugent's wife came out and told the former rock star that he needed to apologize. And he did.
Glor later identified the producer as Molly Kordares ... who looks like this:

Michael Jackson Estate JOINS PEPSI! Deal with the Devil?
Michael Jackson's Estate has just made a huge deal with Pepsi -- the company whose 1984 commercial arguably ruined his life, and some say it's a deal with the devil.
You'll recall, MJ's hair famously caught fire during a pyrotechnic mishap while filming the commercial -- causing severe burns on his scalp that led MJ to become a hardcore prescription drug addict ... and that addiction eventually led him to Dr. Conrad Murray.
The MJ Estate feels Pepsi is the right company to join forces with for a couple of reasons. First, Michael himself worked with Pepsi twice after the incident, once in 1988 and again in 1991, so the singer obviously didn't hold a grudge. And a spokesperson for the estate tells us, "We're here to market the re-release of the 'Bad' album and Pepsi is the most effective place to do it."
But lots of people blame the Pepsi shoot for putting MJ on a drug-fueled path of self-destruction -- including one of the singer's former managers Frank Cascio, who said MJ was introduced to Demerol (a heroin-like opioid) following the accident ... to help deal with the pain.
The Jackson/Pepsi promotion will vary country-to-country -- but will include a TV commercial, special edition cans with Jackson's image, and chances to win downloadable remixes of Jackson's songs.
'Tanning Mom' Lashes Out I'm the Victim of a Witch Hunt!!!
"Tanning Mom" is red hot over accusations that she's a lousy mother for allegedly letting her 5-year-old daughter burn to a fare-thee-well on a tanning bed -- calling her critics "jealous, fat, and ugly."
44-year-old Patricia Krentcil was in Nutley (perfect) New Jersey yesterday on her way to a hair salon when she unloaded and then proclaimed she was a fabulous mother.
Krentcil was arrested last week after a school nurse asked her daughter Anna how she got a sunburn and she replied, "I go tanning with mommy." Krentcil was charged with second-degree child endangerment. She pled "not guilty."
By the way, you gotta see the part in the video where Krentcil narrowly averts looming plumber's crack.

Robin Williams Secret Comedy Show in Hollywood
Cool thing happened in Hollywood last night ... when Robin Williams dropped by a small comedy club on Sunset Blvd. unannounced ... and asked if he could perform.
It all went down at a place called Meltdown Comics -- which hosts a small comedy event every Wednesday night. We're told Robin walked in ... grabbed the mic ... and busted out a set for roughly an hour. Sources at the show tell us ... Robin KILLED IT.
It's not unusual for big time comics to drop in to small venues and secretly test out new material before a tour ... or a special. We called Robin to find out if that was case with last night's impromptu set ... so far, no word back.

Ashton Kutcher Popchips Ad PULLED Over Brown-Face
Ashton Kutcher's new commercial for Popchips has officially been PULLED amidst allegations of racism ... after the actor donned brownface makeup to play a goofy Bollywood producer.
The ad -- which debuted on the Popchips website -- featured Ashton playing a variety of characters in a spoof "dating" commercial ... including a biker, a hippie, and an Indian guy named Raj.
The ad pissed off a whole bunch of people -- including blogger Anil Dash ... who called the ad, "a hackneyed, unfunny advertisement featuring Kutcher in brownface talking about his romantic options, with the entire punchline being that he's doing it in a fake-Indian outfit and voice."
Dash explained on his blog, "I think the people behind this Popchips ad are not racist. I think they just made a racist ad."
In the wake of the backlash, Popchips took down the ad ... and Popchips CEO Keith Belling issued a statement saying, "We did not intend to offend anyone. I take full responsibility and apologize to anyone we offended."

Charlie Sheen The Strip Club REBELLION!
Charlie Sheen is getting some serious push-back from an NYC strip club ... and not in the good way ... because the nudie bar is REFUSING to change the name of its special "Charlie Sheen" VIP room.
We broke the story ... Charlie's legal assassins have fired their rockets of intimidation at Cheetahs Gentlemen's Club ... threatening to sue for using the Warlock's name without permission.
But the owner of the place, Sam Zherka, says he ain't afraid -- in fact, he's gonna throw a NAKED PARTY in the "Sheen Room" tomorrow to show he has NO INTENTION of backing down.
Still, Charlie's lawyer tells us, "The club’s ongoing efforts to attract media attention by using Charlie Sheen’s name and mischaracterizing the nature of his legal claims are more blatant attempts to promote the club by wrongfully exploiting my client’s publicity rights without his consent."
The drums of war are beating ...

'Biggest Loser' Wedding NO BOOZE ALLOWED
"Biggest Loser" contestant Joe Messina's recent nuptials violated the one cardinal rule of weddings everywhere -- GET EVERYONE WASTED -- because booze was NOT allowed at the party.
TMZ broke the story ... the former Season 13 contestant tied the knot recently in Michigan -- and 12 other current and former contestants attended -- but the wedding party lacked a key ingredient .... alcohol.
Sources tell us ... the groom and his "Loser" guests are serious as a heart attack when it comes to their new healthy lifestyle -- so they axed all forms of alcohol from the menu (alcoholic drinks contain a lot of calories). Thankfully, we're told the crowd -- which was pretty religious -- didn't drink much anyway.
But Joe's reign of terror didn't end there -- we're told he also subbed a real wedding cake for low-fat pumpkin cake pops ... and served only food from the "Biggest Loser Cookbook" ... such as:
-- Grilled Chicken with Mango, Thai Quinoa Salad
-- Tossed Salad
-- Fresh Fruit Salad
-- Asian Chopped Salad
-- Salad Salad
And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse ... we're told the guests actually WORKED OUT before the ceremony.
No one was injured.

Ray J I'm a Professional Fighter ... of Ingrown Hairs
The death of Whitney Houston hasn't diminished the marketing value of her ex-boyfriend Ray J -- TMZ has learned the singer just inked a major deal ... to fight the war on ingrown hairs.
Ray J is officially the new face of Prince Reigns shaving serum ... and according to the singer's rep, the deal is worth up to $1 million bucks ... though the rep wouldn't divulge the exact terms of the contract.
A rep for the company tells us Sophie Monk signed a similar deal.
Fun Fact -- Ray's former sex tape partner Kim Kardashian has also dabbled in the body hair removal business -- inking a deal of her own with the TRIA laser hair removal system a few years ago.
We said it was a "fun" fact ... not an interesting fact.
Big Deal!
Octomom Signs On For Self-Pleasure Video
Octomom may be declaring bankruptcy, but she's still very much the master of her own domain.
Octo has signed on to do a masturbation video ... TMZ has learned. She's hooked up with an online adult entertainment company and will shoot the video this summer. It will be released shortly thereafter -- not a lot of post production, we're told.
As for how much she'll make, it's hush hush, except we're told, "It's a lot more than the $10,000 she made for posing topless."
You'll recall Octo once vowed never to do porn, but she's saying she doesn't consider a masturbation video porn, because it's a solo mission.

'Biggest Loser' Wedding STUFFED with Losers
Who said losers can't find love -- TMZ has learned, recent "Biggest Loser" quitter Joe Messina tied the knot earlier this month ... and not only did the entire cast attend ... a former contestant actually officiated!
Sources tell TMZ, the small ceremony took place outside on April 14th at a Michigan park -- only a select number of friends and family were invited ... but the tight list included 12 current and former contestants from Season 13 of "Biggest Loser."
Among the "Biggest Loser" attendees -- Buddy and Mark, who famously walked off the show in protest back in February ... and BL finalists Conda and Jeremy.
We're told Buddy officiated the ceremony, Mark said a prayer, and former contestant Gayle made the flowers. All the food at the reception was made using recipes from the "Biggest Loser" cookbook.
If you don't remember Joe, it's probably because the 38-year-old truck driver walked off the show in January because he missed his then-fiancee Anita. The walk-off was unrelated to the mass protest a month later.

The legal docs we obtained do not specify her creditors or how much she owes -- but it's pretty clear ... she's dead broke.

Dateline NBC Smile Kids! Your Parents Set You Up in Cheating Investigation
Dateline NBC pulled a fast one in a hidden camera investigation last night -- but instead of targeting pedophiles, they took down middle schoolers cheating on a phys ed. test ... and the kids' parents were in on the sting.
Here's the premise: the kids were told they have to complete an obstacle course to audition for an "ultimate challenge" TV show. Unknown to the kids, Dateline is secretly recording the test ... and they've planted an actress who encourages the kids to cheat by inflating their scores. Also, their parents are sitting in a nearby room watching the whole thing go down.
The first time through the course the kids try to stop the actress from lying ... and insist on posting their real results. However, the second time, some of them give in and agree to fudge the numbers.
Natalie Morales then walks out -- playing the Chris Hansen role -- and tells the kids they've been set up to see if they cheat. The shocked looks on their faces are priceless ... especially when they hear their parents were in on it.
What happened to talking to your kids at home?
