Career

Reid began her career at the age of six in 1982 on the game show, Child's Play. As a child, she had roles in a number of commercials for McDonald's, Crayola, and Jell-O. She grew up in New York City, and attended the Professional Children's School alongside such celebrities as Christina Ricci, Ben Taylor, Jerry O'Connell, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Macaulay Culkin.[2] Although her breakthrough role was in American Pie in 1999, followers of the 1998 cult film The Big Lebowski already knew her as Bunny Lebowski. Reid spent the late 1990s appearing more often on the cover of tabloid magazines than on screen. Her extroverted social life soon gave her a reputation as a party girl; in fact, U.S. magazine In Touch Weekly, recently voted Reid "top party animal".

On the night of November 4, 2004, Reid was embarrassed at a highly-publicized photo shoot at Puff Daddy's 35th birthday party at Cipriani's Restaurant in New York City, when her dress fell, exposing her left breast. Photos of Reid having larger, perkier breasts than before had been circulating the Internet for several months before the incident, igniting rumors of Reid having undergone a breast augmentation. Scar tissue was visible around Reid's nipple, confirming rumors of breast implants. The photographs were widely distributed. In August 2005, she publicly admitted getting breast augmentation surgery.[citation needed] In October 2006, she admitted in an interview with Us Weekly that she also had liposuction.[9] In the interview she also discusses how her plastic surgery "went wrong," and also explains why she decided to have plastic surgery done, saying that her breasts were uneven and that she had saggy skin. In the same interview, Reid's new plastic surgeon, Dr. Steven Svehlak, reported that he performed a procedure called a doughnut mastopexy to correct her original breast augmentation. is the 308th day of the year (309th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

Tara Reid goes wild again (and again) - Celebrity Insights- msnbc.com (612 words)
Tara Reid leads the party posse at Club Tribu in Split, Croatia, during the taping of a segment for her new E! show "Taradise." The show was formerly to be called "Wild on Tara." If someone thought better of that title, perhaps Reid will think better of her endless party-girl antics.
Reid's curiously contoured stomach, and the lingering (but still unconfirmed) speculation that she might have engaged in a bit of reconstructive magic — speculation, incidentally, that has also been invoked about other parts of her anatomy that she inadvertently displayed to the world during a little dress-strap mishap last fall.
Reid was apparently intended as the latest in a line of luminary hosts, but perhaps she and her handlers realized that “Wild On Tara” mostly connoted (a) her reputation for enjoying adult beverages, not always in moderation, and (b) the vigorous-if-not-romantic endgame that might result from (a).
