Bossip has just learned that Shawne Merriman was arrested for choking out Tila Tequilla.

Tila placed a call early Sunday morning alleging that her boyfriend San Diego Charger defense Sean Merrimen physically assaulted her:

Early Sunday morning, Shawne Merriman was arrested on suspicion of physically assaulting Tila Tequila, a model and television personality. He was taken into San Diego County Jail.

Tequila, whose real name is Tila Nguyen, placed a call at 3:45 a.m., accusing Merriman of choking and physically restraining her. She claims Merriman prevented her from being able to leave his house, and signed a citizens arrest at the scene, charging him with battery and false imprisonment.

Another case of swirl love gone wrong to add to the list.  Developing…

    For those who claim only black women make bad choices in men,whatcha gotta say about this? Women make bad choices – race has nothing to do with it. The only reason I brought up race is because when a black woman is the target of DV, people are always accusing black women of making bad choices.

    what is it about the black male/female dynamic that makes it normal to see a black male willingly get caught up with a swollen head gook?

  • I’m Just Me- WE WANT A GENTLEMAN IN THE STREET BUT A FREAK IN THE SHEETS…YES NEGRO!!!

    I agree with Khristal he does look like a woman beater and the type that uses violence to solve problems.

  • Lakeshow

    Ok Cynthia & Khristal, why dwhen I click on both of your links, it goes to the same website? Coincidence? I think not!! You are obviously tha same person

  • Jay the Real One

    He was angry she was walking around with Ray J’s drawers on her head

  • Jay the Real One

    @ dis yo girl

    Actually he has been busted for steroids before

  • Jay the Real One

    This tramp didn’t have a mark on her and the cops said they HAVE to make an arrest when a complaint is lodged.

  • http://perryone779@yahoo.com rose by any other name

    She was chopping down RayJ and saying she was pregnant by him~ what a skank for sure~~!!

  • Faithful

    @I HATE LOL!!! Did someone get their dinner pissed in this evening??? Why so much hate?? You must really have inner demons and feel your self esteem is minimized by the ‘Black man’. You despise the fact that President Obama, a “Black man”, made it to the white house before you. STFU!

    Now…who is SHE??? I don’t really like reality shows, so I’ve never heard of her. And though she may have had a following, she was a nobody.

    His dumbass probably has roid rage, for real and need his WHOOPED!! I’m talkin bout till he’s coughing up blood. Choked her out huh? 4real? And yall on here defending him like it’s ok cuz she’s a bird or a squirrel as one of the posters said. If that was CB it’d be something different. Bump that! She’s under 5′ and he’s well over 6′. She’s probably a buck o five and he’s no less than 250? If that was two men fighting professionally, she’d be light, feather-weight and he’d be heavyweight…*blank stare*** how much sense does that make? I’m just sayin’

    Men who fight women are cowards. They don’t fight men their sizes,only smaller and they have a complex about themselves. If you know more than one personally, they all usually share that in common.

  • Donte C. Love

    He is probably on some new steroids the league cannot detect. That is all it is about with some of these athletes, taking stimulants the medical tests cannot detect. I work out all natural to keep my guns in top form! :D

    DUDE UGLY AS HELL

    wtf!

  • Z (Queen of Bossip Society)

    My birthday was lovely! I hope you all though of me as much as I know you do…anyways who cares about this story…its all about me today.

  • Prettywhitegirl

    That is what Tila gets for sleeping with a black gorllia monsters. When will white, hispanic and asian women learn? Negroes are nothing but savage beasts. When you sleep with a Negro monkey, you are digging your own grave.

  • Z (Queen of Bossip Society)

    I hate to admit it…but I prefer to date white guys and some hispanics as long as they are not the greasy type with too much jewelry.

  • lauren

    Hate to say it but i’d do that to her too. She is definitely annoying and looks like an alien! Girl ain;t bi….she’s bi-chic. She’s shady and fake…punch her out next time Shawne!

  • THEY KILLED MIKE

    LMAO @ KENDRA, SILKEN DOVE, & FATAL

  • silentjay

    Hey Bossib lay off the Swirl thing already. People date and in some cases marry people of different ethnic back grounds and anyone can end up in abusive relationship regardless of race. Grow the #$%@ Up.

  • white male

    Hooking up with Tila is like hooking up with FLavor Flav

  • memchee

    Didn’t he get into trouble over roids not too long ago.

    I’m not surprised by the over the top anger!

  • deesac

    First of all my 2%. It does not matter if your 2ft 2inches. A big mouth is a big mouth. I also believe he made a bad choice of a woman but that’s his decision. Fellas if you got to put your hands on someone to be with them then its time to split up.

  • rico 9

    oh- i forgot to say-

    @pretttwhitegirl- what the hell are you doing on this site? go somewhere else and talk shit.more like uglywhitegirl.

  • love me or hate me.

    @prettywhitegirl

  • love me or hate me.

    @prettywhitegirl
    You already are destroyed and if you have children I feel bad for them they are destroyed to b/c they have you for a mother.SMH

  • love me or hate me.

    @j
    Just because Tila did some reality tv doesn’t mean she deserves to be choked out. Nobody deserves that.
    I’m really taken aback by all the hatred I see in the comments here. No wonder there’s so much war and destruction and death in the world. *smdh*

    I co-sign,it deeply disturbes me how much racism I see on this site.SMH!

  • bman

    Prettywhitegirl

    DIRTY BLACK HO!

  • WTF

    @Yvonne.

    I agree with you. If it had been ‘roid rage she would have looked worst than RiRi. I have worked these kinds of cases before (black and WHITE), and I have seen quite a few instances where the woman and man gets into an arguement, things get heated and the woman calls the police and somethings exaggerates the situation. The fact that there were no marks, and the seemed reluctant to arrest him seem suspicious as the claim by the white girl in the Kobe case or the black “dancer” in the Duke University case. The fact that the men in these charges weren’t likeable or in interracial relationships only sours the public’s opinion of them.

    I think we’ll have to wait for information on this one.

  • WTF

    sorry for the typos above. I was in a hurry.

    This woman is a menace and he looks like crazy…

    On September 6, 2009 the San Diego Sheriffs Department responded to a citizens complaint that was initiated by Tila Nguyen (aka Tila Tequila). I was taken into custody based upon that complaint. At the time, I was concerned about her welfare given the intoxicated state she appeared to be in and I encouraged her to stay until safe transportation could be provided. We would all do our best to help a friend if we considered their actions to be detrimental to their personal safety. I in no way caused any harm to Ms Nguyen, however, paramedics were called and she was examined but no injuries were reported. She was released and has since returned to Los Angeles, California.

    There have been no charges filed against me. I want to thank the San Diego Sheriffs Department for their professionalism. I will continue to cooperate fully with the Department and I look forward to clearing my name regarding these false allegations. I want to put this behind me so I can continue to focus on a successful season for the San Diego Chargers.

    Merriman also said that Nguyen is not his girlfriend. According to reports, the couple had been at the Stingaree nightclub on Saturday night and stayed until closing in the early hours Sunday morning. “They seemed in good spirits throughout the evening and were enjoying themselves,” the statement said. “There was no outward indication of any problem between the two of them.”

    From the looks of things, Nguyen spent a good portion of the weekend with Merriman, even attending the Chargers-49ers preseason game on Friday night. She sent out messages throughout the past few days, professing on Twitter how smitten she was.

    SOUNDS LIKE SOMEBODY IS MAD THAT THEY GOT DUMPED TO ME. NOBODY SHOULD EVER GET ATTACKED, AND IF HE DID THAT HE DESERVES THE MOST PUNISHMENT ALLOWABLE, BUT FROM WHAT I JUST READ, I THINK SHE WAS MORE INTO HIM THAN HE WAS INTO HER….BASED ON THE FACT THAT HE’S 6’4 WEIGHS 265lbs. AND BASICALLY HITS LIKE A MACK TRUCK, I’D GUESS THAT THIS IS A TOTAL FABRICATION ON HER PART TO SAVE FACE……
