Celebutante Tila Tequila has sent out at least 160 tweets since the death of her fiancee, Johnson & Johnson heiress Casey Johnson, last week. While the reality starlet has fallen under fire for appearing more like an attention-seeking leech than a grieving widow, Tila says she’s turned to social networking and paparazzi photo-ops to deal with her grief because she has no one to talk to.
“Why do I tweet so much? Even BEFORE Casey passed away? BECAUSE I HAVE NO FRIENDS! THERE! THE TRUTH COMES OUT! Just pray 4 her please!” she posted on her Twitter account over the weekend, The Huffington Post reports. “PPL say I need 2 get off twitter & grieve with friends & family…WHERE? I DONT HAVE ANY! Casey was my only family & my Dogs! Worst day ever,” she added.
She has no family? Wait, didn’t Tila make a public announcement just last month claiming that she’s elected to be a surrogate for her childless brother and his sister-in-law?
The petite former MySpace pin-up has spent the better part of a week slamming her so-called “haters” in bitter Tweets and postings across the blogosphere. Her targets have included Casey’s childhood friends, Nicky Hilton and Bijou Phillips, who called in a police escort to retrieve the socialite’s two dogs from Tequila’s care last week.
Tequila told her followers the dogs were going to be euthanized, a claim Nicky and Bijou deny. Tequila has also criticized the Johnson family for torpedoing her now-axed appearance on Larry King Live.
