Tila Tequila attack at Gathering of Juggalos was planned

Tila Tequila said that she was attacked at a concert called the Gathering of Juggalos late Friday night and into the wee hours of Saturday morning.

While Tila Tequila has engaged in what turned out to be false claims that she was the victim of domestic abuse or harm from another one of her so-called multiple personalities, this time she's telling the truth.

Moreover, the attack that Tila Tequila suffered at the Gathering of Juggalos concert - an annual festival of indy music and alternative or "underground" life that's best described as a rough version of Burning Man - was planned.

According to tweets by Nathan Rabin from AVClub.com and a blog called Juggalo Holocaust, there were informal yet openly communicated plans to harm or harass Tila Tequila in some way.

Tila Tequila was to perform at Gathering of Juggalos

In some comments and blogs, people asked why Tila Tequila was even at the 11th annual Gathering of Juggalos concert in Cave-In-Rock, Illinois? The event, called "The official Psychopathic Records and ICP annual fan gathering event," had Tila Tequila as one of its name concert acts according to the website poster and "Sugar Slam" who mentioned this in the promotional video for the event.

On Nathan Rabin's Twitter account @nathanrabin, he issued the following tweet that apparently was before Tila Tequila went on stage as part of what was called "Ladies Night:"

Contemplating ditching Green for Tila Tequila. Word is she'll be met with critical brickbats. And actual bricks perhap.

In other words, there was at least a chance that someone planned to harm her using a brick.

Nathan Rabin continued on Twitter with a series of tweets that give a good idea of what happened:

Tila Tequila took off her top in a desperate bid to win back the crowd. It did not work.

After a half naked, clearly lip-synching Tequila was so inundated with projectiles that she ran offstage they shut ladies night down.

Then again, I left at 5 AM like a pussy so I don't entirely know whether Li'l Kim managed to perform before a sea of enraged Juggalos or not

"A sea of enraged Juggalos," indicates something really went wrong. And according to the blog
Juggalo Holocaust Tila was warned that there were plans to harm her in some way via commentary from her own blog. Here's some of what was posted at the blog:

Rage "I'm waiting around for a blogger to post about the juggalos throwing pee-filled balloons at this bitch."

ITS ICP NOT IKP "you better watch your head..YOU WILL BE BOOED OFF STAGE JUST DO EVERYONE A FAVOR AND STAY HOME!"

jdubb "im throwing rotten hot dogs at you that are gonna be sitting in a warm cooler filled with hot water out in the sun untill that friday… they have also been in my fridge for over a year... i fucking hate you and i will teach you not to come back to the gathering."

And unless you have doubts that some of the people who go to the Gathering of Juggalos throw stuff, take a look at what happened to wrestler Tracey Smothers, who had a Confederate Flag jacket on and was stupid enough to wave a Confederate Flag after a wresting match:



It's one thing to say Tila Tequila should not have gone, but apparently she was a named act that was to be paid for her work. Some claim that Tila is making up the blood stains in the photo, but from the online accounts of what happened and the harm some threatened to do to Tila Tequila if she came to the Gathering of Juggalos, that's not the case.
