Treating herself to the best of both worlds, Tila Nguyen (aka Tila Tequila) has invited 16 guys and 16 lesbian women to live together with her under one roof in her new bisexual reality dating show.
"A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila," which airs Tuesday nights at 10 p.m. on MTV, is everything you love (or hate) about reality TV. ...

I was mostly surprised by Tila, who often plays the part of a ditz, who came off as well spoken, hip, but still with some intelligent and genuine qualities about her. Sure she wasn't exactly being genuine with the contestants, but she was being true to the viewer even noting when she herself was being too flirty, slutty or mean.
I think TV critics have bashed this show pretty harshly, but only because it drew a big rating. The show is heads above a lot of stuff MTV and VH1 pass off as entertainment, so why hate on this one show? Probably because it's the popular thing to do. Not unlike hating on Miss Ngyuen herself. It's almost as hip as being her Myspace friend.
