Wow, just... wow. Words can't even describe the splendor that is MTV's newest realidating show "A Shot at Love: with Tila Tequila." In the show, 16 men AND 16 women vie for the heart of one Ms. Tila Tequila, who comes out as bisexual on the show. This format invites incredible drama potential in ways never before imagined by realidating shows. Who would have thought that a douchebag and a self-described lesbian would hook up in one of the first episodes? Or that, in order to understand how the other half lives, the most masculine bunch of fellas from all over God's creation would be forced to walk in, wait for it... high-heels! My gosh, blurred gender lines have never been so provacative, and delicious.
Oh Tila, what is it about you that captures the hearts and minds of this great nation? Is it that we don't understand how the face of a baby got on an otherwise normal-looking 20-something whore? After first joining MySpace under the designation: actor/singer/model, she became the most popular MySpacer ever with over 2 million friends. Strangely, when I joined MySpace as an actor/singer/model I had no such luck. I didn't even get an offer to host "Pants off Dance off."
But Tila Tequila is more than just a simple girl with a 2008 16-month calender. After being born in Singapore during her parents' immigration to the US, and moving to a gated community run by a "strict Buddhist temple," little Tila Nyugen found herself and became the Tila Tequila we all know today. Soon she was dabbling in recreational drug use, stabbing dudes with homemade shivs, and even joined a "cholo gang!"
With all her MySpace popularity, mp3, "Stripper Friends," available for download on iTunes, photo shoot in Maxim Magazine, and ALL the free publicity I just gave her, Tila Tequila is poised to take on the world. While she pits arrogant assholes and the most misandric lesbians MTV could find (except for the one mentioned above) against each other, we'll continue to watch with tireless anticipation to find out who finally tames this wild heart.
