TILA's Debut Single and Video 'I Love U' Set for Worldwide Digital-Only Release

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- The No. 1 girl on MySpace is set to become the No. 1 girl in the music industry. On February 27, 2007, Internet sensation TILA TEQUILA, who has over 1.6 million friends and half a billion page views on MySpace, is releasing her debut single and music video "I Love U" in a unique way -- as an independent, digital-only, global release.

Managed by Strategic Artist Management in Los Angeles and newly signed to United Talent Agency for all areas of representation, TILA has struck a partnership with global entertainment producer Endemol and digital label/distributor INgrooves for a worldwide first -- an all digital release of the single and video from the MySpace superstar.

"I'm incredibly excited to have some of the most amazing partners in the US and internationally who understand my vision of trying to do things differently," TILA TEQUILA says.

The video, a co-production by Endemol and TILA made specifically for the small screen, has been available exclusively on mobile phones around the world since February 14. The single, produced by multi-platinum-selling producer Lil Jon, will be available for an exclusive pre-release through iTunes and then March 13th to the rest of the Internet universe. iTunes will offer the video as a free bonus with the 99 cent U.S. download (prices vary by territory) of the song during the initial two weeks on sale.

Michiel de Gooijer at Endemol comments: "What makes this partnership so significant is that it plugs fans directly into the artist in every possible way. We've already had international success working with the music industry and mobile operators on our 'Get Close To ... ' format and this new deal represents another step forward in this area. TILA's video is tailor made for the small screen and is the kind of rich content that takes mobile entertainment to the next level."

This is the first ever music video for Endemol, whose credits include global television sensations such as Big Brother and Deal or No Deal. The production company continued its legacy of breaking new ground by premiering the video simultaneously around the world via mobile phones. "I Love U" is available on deck via Sprint USA, O2 UK, Vodafone Netherlands and many others. Endemol is handling direct worldwide distribution of the video and working with San Francisco based INgrooves on the online and mobile release of other assets. Further announcements are expected shortly.

In the US, TILA's video premier is available exclusively for Sprint subscribers with a Sprint Power Vision phone on the lifestyle channel "Fast Lane," operated by mobile media power house Versaly.

"We have always envisioned one day working with an artist like TILA, whose fan base is almost entirely digitally based," said Robb McDaniels, INgrooves' CEO. "More and more major label caliber artists like TILA are using the Internet and mobile networks to connect more directly with their fans, and INgrooves' global digital distribution platform and marketing experience support this effort in a cost effective manner."

MySpace, the launch pad for TILA's fame is a key marketing partner for the launch of this new model.

Since premiering in mid-February, TILA's music related and lifestyle videos have been viewed over 1.35 million times on Livevideo.com, another key marketing partner.
