Tila Tequila was brought in for an appearance at the 2010 Gathering of the Juggalos for who-the-hell-knows what reason, and apparently the crowd was, how shall was say, unappreciative of her presence there. The swarm of Juggalos became hostile the moment she stepped on stage, pelting her with objects. Tequila emailed gossip website TMZ about the incident, and said:
"DUDES were throwing HUGE STONE ROCKS in my face, beer bottles that slit my eye open, almost burnt my hair on fire cuz they threw fire crackers on stage, and they even took the shit out of the port-o-potty and threw shit and piss at me when I was onstage."
Tequila continued that she tried to escape back to her trailer, but "2 thousand people" ran after her, where the crowd proceeded to break the trailer windows and began shaking it before police arrived to break up the scene. The website also reports Tequila required stitches to her face because her cuts were "squirting blood."
The 4-day festival is a mecca for thousands of fans of Psychopathic Records acts, described as a "Juggalo Woodstock" by Violent J of the Insane Clown Posse.
