Reality star Ashley McNeely has died. The West Virginia native, who appeared on A Shot at Love With Tila Tequila and the subsequent spin-off, That's Amore, was found dead in his apartment Thursday, E! News can confirm. Beckley police were called to check on a possibly deceased person at his apartment complex yesterday afternoon, where EMS pronounced McNeely dead. He was reportedly 35 years old. As Lieutenant David Allard told E! News, an acquaintance or possible girlfriend dialed 911. "She had found him, which is my understanding," Allard said. Wow! This is definitely an interesting twist on reality programming.Anyone who is aware of what is going on in MySpace knows Tila Tequila. It's a little hard to miss her if you keep up with pop culture.Now, she has a show that pits the guys against the girls in a battle of love. Oh, yeah, we've seen that before. The twist here, however, is that all of the girls are lesbians. Tina declares herself bisexual and the lesbian girls have to live with and battle the straight guys for her affection.The first episode is an indication that this will be a hot show. The parade of girls in their sexy outfits was amazing. I wish there was something equally amazing to say about the guys, but the testosterone display at the beginning sort of put them behind, in my opinion. Is Tina bisexual? Based on the first show, I doubt it. She was definitely more into the women. We'll see as the show progresses. Page 2
