Tila Tequila raised a storm after she described Hitler as a special and sweet kid who was rejected by art schools and later bullied.

The 32-year-old model had earlier posted an image of herself on Facebook wearing a swastika arm band, Nazi uniform hat and silver stripper getup while standing in front of Auschwitz concentration camp, the New York Daily News reported.

Tequila also drew comparisons to her own life, saying that she had felt mocked and rejected when she had tried to convert to Judaism in recent years.

She also wrote that she never hated anyone and just because she feels sympathy, compassion, and forgiveness for others such as Hitler, doesn't mean that she's a monster.
