Back in 2007, LALATE was one of the first to even write about Semel appearing in celebrity circles. Semel would come up in the context of Lindsay Lohan. Back then LALATE wrote: “Lindsay Lohan has a new bff. According to reports, her new bff is the Courtenay Semel, daughter of CEO Terry Semel”.

Semel first appeared in E! reality show “Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive,” with Fabian Basabe, Brittny Gastineau and Katy Benetar.

Now, in 2008, Tila Tequila and Semel are all smiles together, clearly happy, and looking very cute together.

Here are some adorable pictures of Courtenay Semel from 2007 with Lohan and now with Tequila in 2008.

After Shot of Love 1 was done, Tila said that she wasn’t doing Shot of Love 2. Then suddenly, without explanation, she was signed on to do it again.

If you remember, Shot at Love 1 was an enormous premiere for MTV. It’s ratings covered on LALATE were unbelievable. So now that Shot of Love 2 is done, Tila is now saying no mo ‘gain for Shot at Love 3.

But do you believe her?

“MTV asked me to do another season, but I don’t want to do that right now,” Tila Tequila told In Touch magazine. “I’m going to do something else with my life. It’s time to move on.”

Good for Tila! As LALATE NEWS turns 1 year old on August 22, fans will be happy to know that Tila has remained one of the most read celebrities on LALATE this first year.

So is there a TINAY? Tila dating Courtenay Semel? No confirmation from the two, simply chatter that they hang out together. And a New York Post article claiming Tila loves doing shots with Semel …. of vodka, that is.

Do you think they look cute together?

You have to love the “dirty dancing”. Is there a way that Tila dances that isn’t dirty? Also reportedly in the house, possible Dancing with the Stars star Lance Bass and his boyfriend.

She’s sorta cute. Semel is certainly prettier that Samantha Ronson.
