Tila Tequila Doing Well After Rehab: Reportedly Recovering From Eating Disorder & Drug Addiction

25 May 2012 9:44 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

When reality star Tila Tequila headed off for a monthlong stay at a Florida rehab center, she wasn't just dealing with drug addiction but an equally deadly eating disorder that left her frail and rail-thin, reports RadarOnline.

Earlier this year, the 30-year-old was hospitalized following a reported brain aneurysm and drug overdose that nearly killed her.

Sources say the overdose wasn't accidental. According to TMZ, Tila's roommate told police that Tila had "tried to kill herself all week." Following her hospitalization, the former MTV reality star agreed to enter rehab for substance abuse and treatment for other psychological issues -- which we now know to be an eating disorder.

"Tila is a really small girl to begin with so she usually weighs around 100 pounds, but at the height of her sickness she was down to around 75 pounds," a source close to Tila told RadarOnline. "She began to realize she had »

'Between Two Ferns' goes big time: Zach Galifianakis jousts with Tina Fey and Jon Stewart

7 May 2012 12:24 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

For fans of Between Two Ferns, the hilarious bite-sized webisodes in which a passive-aggressive version of Zach Galifianakis awkwardly interviews quickly chagrined celebrities, the promise of a full-length television episode threatened to be almost too much of a good thing. Would Comedy Central, which aired the special last night before The Comedy Awards, ruin the low-rent vibe of the show by throwing millions of Viacom dollars at the funnyman? And could the show hold up over the course of a half hour, rather than the quick four-minute hits that have so delighted you during your lunch break.

Samantha Ronson's single: Not only was the DJ/musician supposedly spotted with ex Lindsay Lohan while in New York, but she performed on Live with Kelly. The rendezvous overshadowed the awkward appearance, which may have been her (smart) plan. Lindsay is always great for deflection. »

Tequila: 'I Thought I Was Dying After Suffering A Brain Aneurysm'

9 April 2012 6:31 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Reality TV star and internet pin-up Tila Tequila has opened up about the medical emergency that put her in rehab earlier this year, revealing she thought she was dying after suffering a brain aneurysm.

The 30 year old accidentally overdosed and suffered the aneurysm last month and immediately checked into a treatment centre in Florida.

She tells Us Weekly magazine, "I can remember feeling like the bones were popping out the side of my head, the pain was so bad. I took some medications and tried to go for a nap, but when I woke up I was vomiting."

Tequila's roommate found the star almost unconsciousness and dialled emergency services.

After the scare and the rehab, Tequila insists she feels like a new woman: "I feel like I have been reborn. I should have died and feel blessed to have another chance at life and I intend to grasp it. I got excellent treatment and I did a total detox of all substances and medications. This was really tough but I managed to do it."

She now hopes to help other celebrities who find themselves in similar situations.

Tequila adds, "I love talking to people and hopefully I can help them if they have problems. This whole experience has made me think about going back to school and taking psychiatry classes as I feel like I could really help people who have issues." »

Dina Lohan Signs Up To Celebrity Hotline Service

22 March 2012 3:06 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Lindsay Lohan's mother Dina has signed up to a new celebrity hotline service allowing fans to get directly in touch with her so she can "tell the truth" about tabloid rumours.

Dina Lohan, her ex-husband Michael Lohan, former Party of Five actor Jeremy London and reality TV star Tila Tequila are among the names available to contact via Dial-a-Star.com, which charges U.S. callers a minimum of $50 (£31.25) and between $10 (£6.25) and $25 (£15.63)-a-minute to speak to the stars.

American talk show host Wendy Williams called the hotline to chat to Dina Lohan on Thursday morning and caught the Mean Girls actress' mum in the middle of household chores at her home in Long Island, New York.

And Lohan admits she decided to make herself available to fans after seeing all the false reports about her and her daughter's lives.

She says, "It's really a cool concept. The guy is a genius who's doing it (sic)... They approached me a couple of days ago and I said it sounds like a really cool idea 'cause for me as a parent and being in the entertainment world for 30-odd years there are so many inaccuracies in the media and for me, if I can get people to call... you can reach out and tell the truth as to all the Bs (bulls**t) out there about your life... That's why I personally did it." »

17 March 2012 1:55 PM, PDT | HollywoodLife | See recent HollywoodLife news »

John McCain's daughter, Meghan, is in 'Playboy' next month and wait until you hear what she had to say! She didn't hold back one bit about her sex life, rumors about being a lesbian and her love of Jack and Coke! Meghan McCain was almost in the White House as the First Daughter, had her dad, John McCain, beat President Barack Obama in the the 2008 presidential race -- and it might have been a nice change in pace! The 27-year-old political maven is outspoken and doesn't hold back or try to act perfect, something she demonstrates in a hysterical and telling interview in April's Playboy. "I love sex and I love men," Meghan says, explaining that she loves to hang out with people who identify as bisexual (ala Tila Tequila) because she has fun, not because she's dating them. "I’m not a lesbian, if that’s what you’re asking. »
