mila tequila’s channel on youtube is dedicated to deep-diving into the elaborate bygone beef, personal drama, scandals, and crimes of the likes of Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Nicole Richie, and the infamous Bling Ring. In other words, the legendary alleged history of ’00s Hollywood.

The channel is only a month old but has already accumulated 85.5 thousand subscribers. mila tequila acknowledges at the beginning of each video their primary source of information they draw on is the glorious ’00s blog, Pop Culture Died in 2009. Their videos are essentially organised timelines of events, accumulated from archives shared by PCD2019 and other sources. So, if you want to be seriously blasted by the Hollywood past, go check out that blog.

The YouTube’s channel’s published videos include a deep dive investigation into what really happened in the legendary alleged feud between Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton.

Not to mention, the two-part 70+ minute video essay explicitly detailing the alleged highs of all kinds and lows of Lindsay Lohan’s time in Hollywood in the 2000s. The two videos deep-dive into everything from films to feuds to rehab to her alleged scorned ex-girlfriend to where she is now ( in Saudi Arabia, if you’re wondering).

There’s also a video spilling the tea on the timeline of robberies committed by the infamous Bling Ring. The Bling Ring was the name given to a group of thrill-seeking teenagers who successfully robbed the homes of Hollywood’s biggest socialites in the late 2000s. They stole from Orlando Bloom, Megan Fox, Lindsay Lohan, and Paris Hilton before they were caught.

After publishing their latest video on The Bling Ring, Mila is now working on a video that will spill the tea on alleged the four-way feud between Miley Cyrus, Mandy Jiroux, Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez. Back in the yonder years between 2008 and 2010, Miley Cyrus had a little Youtube series called The Miley and Mandy Show she made with her backup dancer and bestie Mandy Jiroux.

The pair supposedly had edgy Disney channel beef with Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato, mocking them regularly on their Youtube series. What’s the tea? We’ll find out before the end of January.

There are also breakdowns of Kim Kardashian’s origin story, a deep dive into the Olsen Twins, and an investigation into the fall from grace of Amanda Bynes on the way.

Maybe its because I was a little too young in the 2000s to comprehend the elaborate details of the trials and tribulations of these celebrities and their feuds, but there is something so satisfying about having it all laid out more than a decade later. There’s nothing I find more relaxing than adding to the catalogue of my useless celebrity knowledge.
