The New York Times says: MySpace Feels Tila Tequila's Wrath “'MySpace ... has been cutting down our freedom and taking away our rights slowly,' wrote Tila Tequila, a singer who is one of MySpace’s most popular and visible users." We say: Who says beautiful women can't be intellectual crusaders for our digital rights. Bravo, Tila. Brains and beauty. That's a winning ticket.

Time Magazine says: How Tila Came to Rule MySpace "As for what she does for a living, there isn't really a word for it yet. Nguyen, 25, who goes by Tila Tequila professionally, is some combination of rapper, singer, model, blogger and actress. We say: Tila makes her living by capitalizing on most forms of modern media. It's funny to see a crusty old magazine publication try to understand this.

TMZ.com says: Tila Tequila's 'Friends' Not Giving Single a Shot "Tila Tequila may be the most popular person ever on MySpace, but it turns out not very many of her 1.7 million friends wanted to shell out a buck for her first single." We say: Always highlighting the negative! Buried in its own article: "A week after the single's release, the video for "I Love U" ... was the most-downloaded music video on iTunes." Why not lead with that, TMZ?

AOL says: AIM Interviews TilaTilaTequila07: my peeps are throwing a party for me tonight at the Gentlemen's Club TilaTequila07: hot girls strippin all night TilaTequila07: you're invited =) CannonInMusic: You know I got plenty of homies that would HURT SOMETHING to see you in person.
