Desperate to milk attention after the San Diego County D.A. decided not to press charges against Shawne Merriman, Tila Tequila zeroed in on a new target:
Chris Brown.
The back story, if you’re unaware: Tila alleges that Merriman, who plays for the San Diego Chargers of the NFL, assaulted her at his house a week ago.
He said he was only trying to keep her from leaving his house and driving home drunk. She may have been jealous about a foursome he wanted to have.
Merriman was arrested, but D.A. said yesterday he would not be charged.
Angry that she can’t milk this for more attention justice will not be served, Tila egged on admitted woman-beater Chris Brown over and over on Twitter.
Whether she’s posing for risque pics, pretending to be bisexual or calling out celebs who have nothing to do with her, Tila Tequila will do anything for publicity.
Note that Chris, who recently pleaded guilty to assaulting Rihanna, is not involved in this whatsoever, Tequila just started a Twitter feud for no reason.
But it got so bad that Brown felt the need to respond:
“NOT TRYNA BE RUDE but i keep hearing tila bringing my name up. ur 15 seconds of fame has ended. dont try to gain fans by dissing me. godbless.”
At least he took the high road, mostly, though he did get in a small dig.
Not that we blame Chris for firing that one back, since he’s already been punished by the court and public… and has nothing to do with Tila Tequila.
