As he continues to languish in a Romanian jail amid a probe into human trafficking and rape allegations, adult comedy show South Park skewered the former kickboxer using a character based on him.
The episode called Spring Break, which aired in the US last night, centres on dad Randy Marsh who is determined to spend the holiday period partying and drinking.
But he gets fed up with his "nerdy" son and friend, and pleads with Alonzo Fineski - based on Tate - to help him.
Randy says: "Look, I'm just trying to combat the messages that the liberal left is putting out to young men about their male instincts being toxic.

"I'm trying to show my son and his nerdy little friend what a real party is because society wants them to be ashamed of their masculine natures."
Alonzo, clutching a gun and a cigar, replies: "I will call some friends."
In a later scene, police officers burst into the party and one tells Alonzo to "freeze", adding: "That's Alonzo Fineski, the Romanian sеx trafficker."
Alonzo swears and the pair get into a gunfight before he flees.

South Park - which airs disclaimers saying all characters even if they're based on real people are fictional - previously mocked Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in a cheeky episode about the "Prince and Princess of Canada" moving to the fictional town in a bid for privacy.
Tate, 36, has been accused of sex trafficking, but has not been charged and denies all allegations made against him.
The controversial influencer built up an image that appealed to teenage boys - creating an online empire that made him one of the most searched people on Google.
Masquerading as lifestyle advice, much of the content is considered highly sexist and is seen as promoting violence against women.
His influence has had a worrying spread amongst young men and boys, with one UK MP saying he is "brainwashing" children.
Tate, who initially gained fame after a short-lived appearance on Big Brother, was arrested alongside his brother Tristan, 34, on December 29.
They are accused of running a trafficking operation and exploiting cam girls - but strongly deny all allegations against them.
The pair have been repeatedly denied bids for freedom as Romanian prosecutors have been granted several 30 day extensions as the investigation continues.
