TMZ has learned that a lawyer for Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo is trying to keep photos of the couple having sex out of the weekly magazines and off the Internet.


Photos of the couple were published in this week showing the two in the nude in a jacuzzi at a private resort in Mexico. TMZ has learned that the rest of the roll shows the two not only making out, but having hardcore sex in the hot tub.


High-powered Hollywood attorney Marty Singer has sent a letter to the weekly mags, warning them that should they publish the steamy pics, they'll face one mother of a lawsuit. Don't mess with Marty!


Singer told TMZ

"The photos that were taken of our clients by a Mexican photographer violated Mexican law and were a clear invasion of privacy, and we have threatened to take legal action against third parties who publish the photos."

Ok look yes there are laws to protect celebs privacy but come on if you dont want everybody to see you like this - don't do it outside at a resort because there's always someone watching!!!
