Britney Spears isn’t stirring up any more drama ... she’s keeping a low profile since being released from jail following her DUI arrest this week, TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Britney tell TMZ the pop star has been laying low at her L.A.-area mansion since her release -- not even stepping out of the house -- as people in her inner circle push for her to get treatment for her issues.

As we first told you, her team is already exploring options, including mental health treatment, detox and dual-diagnosis programs -- all aimed at getting her back on track.

Rick Harrison is pushing back at claims made by his son Corey about his six-figure medical bills following Corey's motorcycle accident and complications that followed ... saying he covered the bills and Corey isn't in debt to him.

The "Pawn Stars" star tells TMZ ... "As far as I know, I paid all of Corey's medical bills long before he put the GoFundMe out. He is a grown man in his 40's and is responsible for how he handles his finances."

As we reported ... a GoFundMe was launched to help Corey cover outstanding medical bills, rent, medications and therapy -- and to pay back money he said he borrowed from Rick and friends who helped foot the hospital costs.

Dillon Brooks went to social media to let his fans know his focus is all on ball after his DUI arrest ... sharing footage from a workout to his Instagram page.

Brooks posted several clips Friday afternoon ... showing him putting up shots at the Phoenix Suns' practice facility with trainers by his side.

It's unclear when exactly the workout took place -- it could very well be from Friday ... which would mean he wasted no time getting back to normal after he was booked hours earlier.

Killer Mike says he's tired of watching poor kids fight wars ... arguing countries that want to go to war should send entitled rich kids instead.

We caught up with the four-time Grammy winner at LAX Thursday ... and we had to ask the politically active star for his take on the devastating conflict in the Middle East.

Britney Spears' son Jayden James isn't shying away from driving after his mom's arrest on suspicion of DUI ... in fact, it's quite the opposite.

Check out these photos of Jayden tooling around Thousand Oaks, CA Friday in a Mercedes-Benz.

Britney's 20-year-old son has the convertible top dropped ... so he's not exactly shying away from the paparazzi. It's the first time we've seen Jayden since Britney was arrested Wednesday night in Ventura County.

Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy’s ex-boyfriend Michael Bergin is finally speaking out about his portrayal in the new FX series "Love Story" … sorta.

Jeremih won't be hitting the road with B2K or Bow Wow after all ... because it's just been announced a health issue is going to keep him from going on tour with the crew.

The singer-songwriter took to social media to announce he's dealing with a health issue that's stopping him from embarking on the "Boys 4 Life" tour.

In a statement to TMZ, Jeremih's manager Dilla tells TMZ ... "[Jeremih's] condition continues to be closely monitored by his doctor. Jeremih and his team are focused on his care and recovery and are deeply grateful for the understanding, patience, and continued support from fans, partners, and the touring team during this time."

Dilla did not clarify what medical condition is keeping Jeremih from going on tour.

Ben Stiller is ripping the White House for using a clip from "Tropic Thunder" in a social media post promoting America's war capabilities.

The "Tropic Thunder" director and star quote-tweeted a video mashup from the White House's official X account and told them to remove a brief clip from his satirical comedy.

The brief "Tropic Thunder" reference is a clip of Tom Cruise's character dancing. A bunch of other blockbusters and video games are featured in the mashup.

Former "Call Her Daddy" cohost Sofia Franklyn is dropping a new memoir ... and while spilling plenty of tea about her life, she says the writing process jogged her own memory in a pretty wild way.

In a Q&A about her upcoming book "Daddy Issues" Sofia revealed she wrote about a time she she’d smoked crack ... only to realize as she was processing the memory, it had actually been methamphetamine.

According to Sofia, once she really started digging into the memory while writing, the details clicked and she realized she’d gotten the drug wrong all along.

Corey Harrison says his dad Rick stepped in to help cover his massive medical bills after his motorcycle crash ... but it's no free ride -- telling TMZ the "Pawn Stars" patriarch "isn't made of money."

"Big Hoss" tells us Rick reached into his pocket and paid at least half of Corey's six-figure hospital bills after a terrifying motorcycle accident in Mexico earlier this year ... but says people shouldn't assume Rick can simply bankroll everything.

Fact is ... Corey says people are cutting the cord, and the family isn't making the kind of money it did during the peak of "Pawn Stars" years ago. Plus, Rick has plenty of other expenses to tend to -- he recently got married and has 5 other kids.

Dr. Drew says Britney Spears needs to focus on two key areas of her life after her DUI arrest ... substance abuse and bipolar disorder.

The good doc joined us on "TMZ Live" Friday and we asked him about Britney firing her sober coaches in the weeks leading up to her DUI bust.

Dr. Drew says sober coaches aren't the solution ... he says Britney's best bet would be to address her addictions with treatment, and that in turn would help with her bipolar diagnosis.

The siblings previously came to a settlement agreement with the Jackson estate ... and, as part of that settlement, the judge found Cascio and company signed off on handling disputes like this in private arbitration, as opposed to the public court system.

Britney Spears has some hurdles in front of her after her recent DUI arrest ... but at least her biopic won't be impacted.

"Scary Movie" director David Zucker is weighing in on Marlon Wayans' claim that Harvey and Bob Weinstein stole the franchise ... telling TMZ this kind of thing happens in Hollywood all the time, and in his view it's just part of the business.

We caught up with David in L.A. Thursday, and while he says he doesn’t know every detail of the situation, he defended a studio's right to make creative decisions ... pointing to his own experience with his "Naked Gun" franchise.

Britney Spears had pills in her possession when she was arrested for DUI ... and TMZ has learned those pills are in the process of being tested, and the results could theoretically mean jail time.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... the pills were Adderall -- something she got while recently in Mexico. Our sources say one of the reasons Britney goes down to Mexico so often is to obtain the drug.

Our sources tell us ... those pills will be tested to determine if they contain pure Adderall or an additional substance. It's not uncommon that certain drugs obtained in Mexico are laced with fentanyl, cocaine, meth or other substances.
