Tila Tequila naked? And this is news because ... ?

Tila Tequila, never known for her shyness or sobriety or an excess of clothing, had a naked, ranting meltdown Wednesday night on her UStream channel, and today the video has been taken down. And Tila's lawyer told TMZ.com today that he's trying to get help for the star of MTV's "A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila." 

Tequila, whose real name is Tila Nguyen, had filed a lawsuit this week against former boyfriend Shawne Merriman of the San Diego Chargers, seeking $1.5 million in damages for alleged domestic abuse in a September incident.

The legions of folks who follow Tila (we feel silly calling her "Tequila") on Twitter and elsewhere online are almost used to this sort of thing. Believe us, we'd love to link you to lots more than we're doing, but dang, that girl has a mouth on her.

It's all fun and games and naked people -- until the lawyers show up.
