Tila Tequila is willing to forgive the XXX website that posted her allegedly stolen tape -- as long as the price is right.
Tequila's lawyer just fired off a cease and desist letter to 4tube.com -- the porn site that's posting footage of Tila getting up close and personal with a naked man. In the letter, obtained by TMZ, Tila's lawyer claims Tequila is willing to settle her case as long as the site removes the video ... and coughs up $280,000.
Tila claims the video clip was snatched off a laptop she reported stolen about two years ago -- and was never intended for public viewing.
According to the letter, the porn site has 2 weeks to respond -- or Tila proceeds full speed ahead.
... tick tock.

More naked drama for Tila Tequila -- this time over a sex tape she claims was stolen off of her laptop computer.
Just days after she Ustreamed herself in a naked rant, a new XXX video surfaced on a porn site called 4tube.com featuring Tila in a very compromising adult position with a naked man.
Tila doesn't know why the video is surfacing now, but she claims it was ripped from a laptop that she reported stolen roughly two years ago -- and now she's threatening to sue the site for posting the clip.
TMZ spoke with Tila's lawyer, Cyrus Nownejad, who told us, "A police report has been filed for Tila's stolen laptop computer which contained that specific clip. I am currently in the process of sending a cease and desist letter and a notice of intent to sue if it's not removed."

With her clothes on -- and forming coherent sentences -- Tila Tequila explained that her naked late night meltdown was caused by flashbacks from her alleged violent run-in with NFL star Shawne Merriman.
Still tired from all the one woman action, Tila told us she buckled from all of the pressure related to her lawsuit against Merriman and she "just kind of flipped out a little bit."
The price tag on that lawsuit: $1.5 million, according to Tequila, who says she'll donate it all to charity.
Tila also says she's no Rihanna -- duh -- and that's why she feels compelled to talk about the alleged abuse.

Tila Tequila's lawyer blames his client's meltdown on former BF Shawne Merriman.
Attorney Cyrus Nownejad tells TMZ he thinks the "domestic violence" incident with Shawne in September may have "pushed her over the edge."
Nownejad acknowledges something is seriously wrong with Tila and he's trying to figure out how to get her some help.
Tila just took down her Ustream, showing her dancing nude and talking crazy in front of the camera. She also went off on Shawne and his alleged drug use.
Tila is suing Shawne for $1.5 mil over the September incident..

Tila Tequila has stripped down naked to go on a bizarre, rambling rant -- live on her Ustream page.
We're told Tila has been at this for hours ... ranting about everything from her personal hygiene to her case against San Diego Chargers linebacker Shawne Merriman -- calling him a "woman beater."
She continued, "I am an angel ... because I am here to save the world with my army."
Tila also claims "this is the last time I'll ever be on ustream ever again."
Earlier in the rant, Tila said, "People call me an attention whore .. or whatever ... but excuse me I'm a grown ass woman and I'm confident in myself ...I think a woman's body is a beautiful thing ... that's why I'm a lesbian ... I was born naked ... anybody who is against that is gay and in denial."

We didn't think it was possible for Meghan McCain to hang out with a bigger fame whore than Heidi Montag.
We were wrong.
The Presidential wannabeen's daughter went to Mr. Chow this weekend with the one and only Tila Tequila -- who proclaimed Meghan was her new "girlfriend."
John would be so proud.

You'd think the Stingaree nightclub in San Diego would bring up mad memories for Shawne Merriman -- but you'd be wrong.
Merriman was at the club again this past Friday -- less than two weeks after a night of partying there led to an alleged altercation with reality queen Tila Tequila.
The San Diego D.A. decided there wasn't enough evidence to charge Merriman.

She claims she was assaulted by the team's linebacker -- but Tila Tequila says she still watches Chargers games.
We got Tila going to her lawyer's office yesterday, where she said she did watch Monday's NFL game ... but wasn't paying much attention to their star player Shawne Merriman, the guy she claims choked her out.
Why the lawyer? As TMZ first reported, Tequila is looking into a civil case against the football player after the D.A. decided not to file criminal charges against the guy -- this
could be step one.

TMZ has obtained these photos of Tila Tequila taken the day after her alleged run-in with Shawne Merriman -- and it's obvious by the bruises, Tila had a rough night.
Tila claims she was "choked and physically restrained" by Merriman after she tried to leave his residence. Merriman says he was trying to keep a drunk Tequila from getting on the road.
The San Diego D.A. announced yesterday it would not prosecute Merriman due to insufficient evidence.

The San Diego District Attorney has declined to prosecute Shawne Merriman over accusations that the NFL star choked Tila Tequila and refused to trapped her in his mansion.
The San Diego D.A. just released the following statement:
"After a thorough review of the investigation into the Sept. 6, 2009 incident at the Poway home of Shawne Merriman, our office has determined there is insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that any crime was committed. The case is now closed."
UPDATE: The General Manager of the San Diego Chargers has issued the following statement: "It's really good news for Shawne. We're happy things worked out for him on the legal front."

Tila Tequila made her first appearance out in public since her alleged attack by Shawne Merriman -- and was sporting some serious bruises!
As TMZ first reported, Tequila met with investigators from the San Diego District Attorney yesterday to discuss the altercation, where she alleges the Chargers star "choked and physically restrained" her last weekend.
Merriman claims Tila was drunk and he was simply trying to "encourage her to stay until safe transportation could be provided."
When asked yesterday by paps if she'll forgive Shawne, Tila replied "I don't know."

We've learned Tila Tequila is currently meeting with investigators for the San Diego District Attorney to discuss the alleged altercation she had with San Diego Charger Shawne Merriman.
The case was handed over to the D.A. yesterday by the San Diego Sheriff's Department. Tila claims Shawne "choked and physically restrained" her as she was attempting to leave his home early Sunday morning.
Shawne is telling a different story: Tila was drunk and he was simply trying to "encourage her to stay until safe transportation could be provided."
The D.A. will ultimately decide if charges will be filed against Shawne.

We're one step closer to finding out if Shawne Merriman will face charges over the alleged Tila Tequila choking incident -- the District Attorney's Office is now reviewing the case.
Today the DA's office was given all of the information gathered by the San Diego County Sheriff's Department -- which include Tila's citizen's arrest warrant from this weekend accusing Merriman of two felonies: battery and false imprisonment.
The DA can either file charges, reject them, or refer Tila's accusations to the San Diego City Attorney's office for consideration as misdemeanors.
