Insane Clown Posse: Tila's Beatdown Was Her Own Fault
The band gave Tila "fair warning" of her impending juggalo assault. Laurence Fishburne disowns his porn star daughter. Halle Berry would rather go naked. Tuesday gossip hedges its bets.
- Tila Tequila's juggalo beatdown reaches its inevitable victim-blame phase: Insane Clown Posse says they gave Tila "fair warning" that their fans might assault her. "We told her about the rumor [that the juggalos would attack her] and she didn't care," said insane clown Violent J. "We paid her before the show and assured her that even if things got out of hand, she could keep the money if she had to leave the stage." Tila's treatment was "fucked up," he argued, but she wouldn't have gotten so fucked up if she's left the stage earlier. Meanwhile, Tila's post-juggalo media blitz includes interviews, photos of her breasts, and a paparazzi shoot at LAX upon her return from juggahell. [TMZ, E!, Radar, image via Splash]
- According to Montana Fishburne, Laurence has officially disowned his porn star daughter. "I'm not going to speak to you until you turn your life around," he alleged told her in their first conversation since she became a porn star: "You embarrassed me. You used your last name. No one uses their real name in porn." He has a point: Her Vivid Entertainment debut advertises her as "an A-list daughter." When pornos advertise tertiary ties to male A-listers, it's usually because the star used to be his mistress. (See also: Woods, Tiger.) Montana has reinvented the A-list namedrop porno, which is is a little bit revolutionary! But mostly it's just gross. Do you really want us to thinking of your father when we watch you get railed from behind? [TMZ]
