A sheriff says reality TV actress Tila Tequila complained that audience members pelted her with stones and feces during an outdoor music festival in southern Illinois.

Hardin County Sheriff Tom Seiner told a Carterville TV station it happened early Saturday at the Gathering of the Juggalos. That's a weekend festival based around the band Insane Clown Posse and other groups from Psychopathic Records.

Seiner told WSIL-TV that Tequila, whose real name is Tila Nguyen, complained that she was injured when audience members threw rocks at her. Seiner said Nguyen also complained that feces were thrown.

The sheriff also said one man stabbed another, though not fatally.

Sheriff's Department dispatcher Jimmy Barnard said early Sunday that he had no other details.

Perhaps this will deter Tila from ever getting on a stage again. One can only hope...

From what I understand, other than the thrown feces and rocks, and the non-fatal stabbing, everyone had a really nice time.

And we are supposed to care? Never heard her perform. Don't care to. Reality show "stars" are nothing more than publicity hounds after all the money they can make from it. Bring us some real news -- and while you're at it, put some REAL talent on show.

Ehh, I've had hotter. She's all fake junk like Snooki! Riding on fake fame. I commend the audience for kicking her off, she was at the wrong crowd, period. Tila, I suggest you walk away from this and not dare keep the issue going with chickensh_t tweets from across the country.

"The sheriff also said one man stabbed another" - Hardin County, Illinois. Hmmmm - a report from the Dunkin Donuts stake-out?

Is there a Interstate By-Pass ?

No, this is what resulted from the "basket" girls in the Saigon bars. Any of you "dad's" recognize her?

Well duh Teeela; why the surprise. At a Juggalos Gathering of Insane Clown Posse and Psychopathic Records, one should expect rocks & crap to be thrown.
