Tila Tequila has bared her bosoms this month in support of Keep A Breast Foundation’s online auction of painted plaster breast casts. The one-of-a-kind celebrity casts combine sculpture, philanthropy and symbolic artistry to raise awareness about breast cancer detection and prevention.

The bidding for Tila’s breast cast reached $44,500 over the span of 12 hours and the auction doesn’t end until Nov. 6 at www.keep-a-breast.org. Other casts featured in the auction are hosts of E! Entertainment’s That Morning Show and Cristal Camden of The Girls Next Door.

“I am so excited to be able to work with Keep A Breast Foundation!,” Tila wrote on her blog yesterday. “It’s a great charity that I work with that help raises money for Breast Cancer [Awareness].”

Tila helped to up the auction by making promises of a personal phone call and kiss for the winner and that she would donate up to $10,000 for people to tweet about the Keep A Breast Foundation and the auction.

“Wow! I just checked and now my boobies are at $44,500.00!!,” Tila tweeted. “Incredible!!! I’m gonna cry of joy! xox.”

All of the breast casts were painted by artists Mike Maxwell, Caia Koopman, Carly Ealey, Brant Sandor and Randy Janson and will benefit the foundation’s mission to raise awareness across the country about breast cancer prevention and early detection.

Tila Tequila has accused San Diego Chargers’ linebacker Shawne Merriman of choking her — but he strongly denies it.

According to officials from the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, police were called to Merriman’s San Diego-area home early Sunday morning after the 27-year-old reality star (real name: Tila Nguyen) says she was choked and later made a citizen’s arrest.

Merriman, 25, was charged with battery and false imprisonment, according to police.

But a lawyer for Steadman denies the allegations, telling the San Diego Union Tribune, “At no time did Mr. Merriman assault her; at no time did Mr. Merriman keep her against her will.”

His lawyer says Steadman was only trying to keep Tila, whom he said was “extremely intoxicated,” safe when he attempted to prevent her from leaving his home.

But Tila shot back on her Twitter page, writing: “I am allergic to alcohol. It has been publicly known for years. That is how I got the name Tila ‘Tequila’ cuz the irony. I can’t drink.”

The results of the investigation will be given to the district attorney’s office, which will decide whether to charge Steadman.

TMZ has learned Tila Tequila’s lesbian girlfriend was arrested in Vegas last night — for allegedly hitting on a guy!

According to law enforcement sources in Las Vegas, it all went down outside of Pure nightclub when a boozed up Courtenay Semel, daughter of former Yahoo! CEO Terry Semel, “smacked” a security guard in the back of the head on her way out of the place.

Courtenay was immediately detained by Caesars Palace security while members of her posse — including Vegas showman Jeff Beacher — waited for cops to arrive. Four hours later, law enforcement arrived and issued Semel a citation for battery. We’re thinking daddy can probably cover the fine.

Attempts to reach a rep for Semel were unsuccessful.

Has Tila Tequila given up a third season of her hit show A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila because she’s already found the real thing with new girlfriend Courtenay Semel?

“MTV asked me to do another season, but I don’t want to do that right now,” Tila told In Touch at the T-Mobile Sidekick LX Tony Hawk Edition party in Los Angeles. “I’m going to do something else with my life. It’s time to move on.”

Tila doesn’t need help dating, anyway. Though the bisexual star says she was “humiliated” after being rejected by Playboy model Kristy Morgan in the season two finale of A Shot at Love, now she confirms that she’s happily dating Courtenay, the daughter of Yahoo! CEO Terry Semel — and former galpal of Lindsay Lohan — who was by her side at the T-Mobile event.
