Tila Tequila will still get paid £100k

Her racist past was revealed which led to her being kicked out of the house but a loophole in her contract means she will still receive her fee.

Tila Tequila was kicked out of the Celebrity Big Brother house after just one day but will still receive her full £100,000 fee.

It was discovered that the US reality star, 34, had made comments sympathising with Adolf Hitler which caused an immediate backlash and led to her being kicked out by Channel 5 bosses.

However, it's now been reported that despite her racist views, Tila - born Thien Thanh Thi Nguyen - didn't 'technically break any rules' of her appearance contract.

It was thought originally that Tila may have to return the sum but according to the Daily Star a 'contractual loophole' means she will keep the cash.

A source told the paper: "Channel 5 has tried to get the money back but can't because on paper it's her money. Technically she didn't break any rules in the house, so she hasn't voided her contract."

It's a disappointment for the Jewish watchdog Campaign Against Anti-Semitism, who exposed the star in the first place.

A spokesman said: "It is unfortunate if Channel Five now has to pay a Hitler sympathiser a large sum under the terms of her contract.

"This should be a lesson to producers who make the mistake of casting an anti-semite in their programmes."

Glad she got paid, would have been disgusting if they made her come over and possibly miss other work to do the show and kicking her out for stuff they should have already known.

[Gusto Brunt]

And so she should get the money. :D

It would have been dodgy if they didn't pay her, it was Endemol's fault for signing her despite knowing about her past. They knew what the press were going to say once she went in.

Lmao 100k for less than 48 hours on tv, goals tbh :joker:

It wasn't even 24 hours, was it? She went in on Day 1 and by the next day's (Friday 28th August) she was gone.
Yeah less than 24 is less than 48 but saying less than 24 is a lot more impressive, and she did a lot more in the house than a lot of housemates did tbh so she pretty much made up for it

I agree. I don't believe for a second that noone in the production company was aware of her past. It's their own fault.

She deserves nothing the dirty little Nazi lover

Missing work? :hehe: she was in the **** pile. This would have been her first "work" since about 2009.

I'm still bummed bc she would've been such a ****ing great housemate
