Reality star and MySpace legend, Tila Tequila, has decided to give faith a shot. TMZ reports that she has been taking classes at a temple in new York to begin the process of converting to Judaism. She even went as far as skipping Christmas altogether in order to focus on her transformation.

TMZ spoke to Tequila and her choice to convert.

"As time passed, I started to become more and more fascinated with Kabbalah, the culture, and the way of life of the reform Judaism religion," she explained.

"I just feel like the Jewish people have such a beautiful way about them, and I can't wait to officially be Jewish! Shabbat Shalom."

Tequila will most likely observe Reform Judaism, as she quips that “Orthodox is a little hardcore for me at this stage,” but anything is possible. Who would have thought that people would still be taking the time to report news bites about her?
