EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Porn Company Offered To Sell Tila Tequila's Sex Tape Back To Her, But Says 'She Went Crazy'
Feb. 16 2011, Published 8:00 a.m. ET
Although Tila Tequila claims to be distraught about her lesbian sex tape being released, Vivid Entertainment owner Steve Hirsch says he gave her the opportunity to buy it back, and she declined.
"I met with Tila last week and she wanted to buy that tape back. I told her she could for the right price, but she went crazy saying it was too much money and she'd already bought another one back.," Hirsch told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.
"I told her if she's not happy, then sue me. I have a call in to one of her attorneys, so we'll see what happens."
As RadarOnline.com was first to report, Tila admitted to reaching a settlement in which she won the rights back to a sex tape she made with an ex-boyfriend in 2004.
"It's already out and doing very, very well and I expect it to continue to do well," Hirsch said of the tape titled Tila Tequila Uncorked - a lesbian threesome that leaves little to the imagination.
"It's really the first all-girl celebrity sex tape so people are really interested in that and Tila is really good, and it shows in the tape. As a result, the sales have been beyond our expectations."
In fact, the tape is doing so well that Hirsch said Tila has already joined the ranks of all-time best sellers Kim Kardashian, Kendra Wilkinson and Pamela Anderson.
EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS & VIDEO: The Sex Tape Tila Tequila Doesn't Want You To See
In a statement released to RadarOnline.com, Tila said she was "disappointed that it has surfaced," but took responsibility for making it.
"Although this video was not meant for the public to see, I hope that this will not affect my career and that I will continue to work hard at achieving my goals in this industry," Tila said.
"Sex tapes don't hurt anyone's career," Hirsch explained.
"It could probably be argued that in most cases it's helped their career."
