Tila Tequila goes to the Gathering of the Juggalos in Illinois - says " 2 thousand people ran after us, trying to kill me" Unfunny: she looks like she got hurt. However, dude, you went onstage at a Juggalos gathering why did you think that was a good idea?

I just read her Wikipedia page and I still don't know who she is.

i'm sorry "we're jagglos" is no excuse.

I did not know what Juggalos were. Now I know. This is why I love the internet.

I know what Juggalos are but like Ardiril I still don't know what Tila Tequila does or why they hell she whould be on stage at an ICP show.

I saw Vanilla Ice open at an ICP concert. I have been sprayed with Faygo. Please try to contain your jealousy.

Tila Tequila is a crazy, self-destructive person and probably needs to be protected from herself. She also makes up stuff a lot, so it's hard to believe any story she tells, even this one.

Yeah TPS, that faking track-record of hers makes me a bit wary. Actually if it was fake, then going on stage makes perfect sense, because we'd all expect juggalos to be violent toward Tila.

If she actually went on stage at a juggalos gathering, again, dude why did you think this was a good idea, you're Tila Tequila, voted the most likely to be hated by the juggalo community.

Sorry, can someone explain this to me (briefly)?
Tila Tequila I know as an attention whore with 50 gazillion myspace friends & a bi-sexual dating show.
Juggalos I know as a bunch of not so bright crankypants fans of those those guys who want to know how fucking magnets work.
How did those worlds collide, and why do the latter hate the former so much?
(I read both their Wiki entries, and my eyes kinda glazed over, so maybe I missed something there.)

All I know about the Juggalos is what I've seen in the Juggalo Gathering Infomercial and the Juggalo News, and from that it seems rather obvious that they wouldn't like this (NSFW images of Tila who basically wears nothing all the time and not safe for ears song).

I didn't even know she was a singer until now. Wow. Lets compare. Insane Clown Posse : In Yo Face.

Each day I learn there are entire realms of the universe of which I have to this point remained utterly ignorant.

I really wish I didn't know all this. I have to for my job no, honestly, I do, really! I need to keep updated on what passes for pop culture these days they don't pay me enough

Wait, ICP is still around? I'm excited about this.

ayo Dabitch what was this girl doing talking to older men on the internet? why did she think it was a good idea?

posted by Firas 15 August | 12:52

What the hell was that supposed to mean? That there's no difference between a twelve-year old girl who is randomly approached and groomed by what she perceives is a trustworthy adult on MSN who declares themselves to be from a well known brand, and an adult woman who is a pop-starlet who has a long-standing MTV career in both reality shows and some pop songs, whose music is the polar opposite of the music played at a Juggalo gathering? Is that what you mean? Because that's pretty weird thinking mate.

If I were playing in a band like, say "Nouvelle Vague" (a girl can dream!), I don't think I would be a hit at for example, a speed metal festival. In fact, I'd chose not to play there because the likelyhood of speed rock fans getting right peeved at my smooth bossanova is pretty high.

posted by dabitch 15 August | 12:59

I don't think there's no difference. my point is just cause you think the juggalos are cool and all doesn't mean they get to hit whomever regardless of the situation

I gotta admit I have a bad taste in my mouth about anything regarding them ever since I read a comment elsewhere link removed so it's just bile by association. I'm gonna slap the poster who made that comment when I catch him.

posted by Firas 15 August | 13:09

hang on, rewind. Sorry for getting my fur up, did you mean I was blaming the victim? That is uncool, no matter who the victim is agreed. That's why I said "Unfunny - it looks like she got hurt". However, this being Tila, we don't really know, she is rather famous for lying her ass off on a daily basis. Still, I did put the reserve in there with Unfunny.

ANd for the record, I don't think the juggalos are cool. I do know that everything she represents is the polar opposite of what they represent. So it looks like a match made in hell. Whomever booked that concert for her should be fired. Even if it was her.

Jesus, right above the comment you linked there's Juggalove dating service... Woah.

I'm sooo stopping myself from making a meta about it an year on
It needs to go!!! *tries to relax*

Maybe we all need some ~~Juggalove~~ kittens to hug.

posted by dabitch 15 August | 13:28

I would think firecrackers and crap thrown at an ICP concert stage would be pretty much business as usual.

Just a note folks: we don't link to problems we have at Metafilter.

What's a girl gotta do to become a trending topic on Twitter, cuz #tilatequila didn't make it.
