Tila Tequila successfully negotiates peace in the Middle East, world rejoices

By jozjozjoz | Thursday, June 12, 2008 | 20 Comments

tila tequila Tila Tequila successfully negotiates peace in the Middle East, world rejoicesIn other completely false news, Tila Tequila is the reason that California dropped its ban on gay marriage last month.

Ok, we all know that Tila Tequila was not responsible for negotiating peace in the Mid East nor the recent court rulings in California. But can you believe that she’s actually giving herself credit for the latter?

“It is because of me — I definitely think [my show] has helped the movement,” she told Usmagazine.com at the Hollywood premiere of The Love Guru on Wednesday.

“Before it came out, everyone was still a little apprehensive about [same sex relationships],” she said. “Then they realized, ‘Wow, everyone is really into this stuff, and it is fine.’ The next thing you know, [gay marriage] is legal.”

Thank you, Tila.

Forget all the truly groundbreaking hard work that LGBTs have done over the last few decades. Forget everyone at Stonewall, Harvey Milk, organizations like PFLAG and COLAGE, Ellen DeGeneres, Sheila Keuhl, Matthew Shepard, Barney Frank, Jenny Pizer and Doreena Wong, any of the Gaysian heroes compiled by Prince Gomolvilas, and countless others who actually deserve some credit for this… WE OWE IT ALL TO YOU AND YOUR MTV REALITY SHOW, TILA!

Blech. Joz, I can't believe you actually gave in and posted about her!

But at least, you beat me to it--and was about as sardonic.

And hey, what about me? Am I not a hero? Dammit! ;)

Well, Yvespaul, let's not dismiss the truly and completely bisexual here. If Tila really is fluently bisexual, it's not "changing [her] mind". Although, you were right about the circus part, but that's reality tv for you. I'm waiting for the premier of "Ow, My Balls!"

And from what I've seen, I don't think Tila is a Rhodes Scholar. Hot, but that's about it.

Yeah, if anything her show hinders the progress of GLBT by telling people that homosexuality is a circus and homosexuals can easily change their minds on who they love and it is a choice for some.

But I think she's just saying it for publicity. I still believe that no Asian is that dumb. She's just playing with the media... I pray.
