Tara Reid, 47, scintillates in black sheer number, candid about being pioneering 2000s party girl
Considered by many to be the “godmother of partying” in Hollywood, Tara Reid spoke candidly about her reputation while insisting she didn’t get in trouble like many famous party girls who came after her.
The 47-year-old actress starred in a stunning cover spread Mr. Warburton Magazine in which she talked to Derek Warburton about her wild reputation.
Before Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and the Kardashians became known as party girls, it was Tara who was seen as the trailblazer in the early 2000s.
She said, “I was the first to start with this image.”
However, Tara believes that the story of her being a “bad girl” was a misconception.

The American Beauty actress explained, “The difference is I never made sex tapes. I’ve never done anything wrong.
“I’ve never even gotten a ticket. But what I did get punished for was that if I wasn’t shooting, I went straight to Europe. I’d pop bottles, and I had a blast!”
The facts seem to support the star’s claim as there is no mugshot of her on the internet, nor is there any record of a DUI or jail time.
The article was accompanied by a stunning image showing the star in many stylish Marc Jacobs looks.
Perhaps the dumbest of all, Tara was seen rocking a sheer black polka dot top over a matching bra.
She completed the look with a shimmering midi skirt, leopard heels and a black scarf around her neck.
Her signature wavy blonde locks were styled by hairstylist Johnny Stunz.
Tara’s bold make-up included shimmery eye shadow and pink lip as it was done by Garret Gervais with Face Stockholm x Derek Fabulous.

The actress believes that her acting career would have been more successful had she settled down and had a child.
She explained, “I’m not married, I don’t have kids… and I think in Hollywood if you don’t have kids or aren’t married, you’re being judged.
“So they still think you’re that party animal from 40 years ago. But all of a sudden, when you have a kid and get married, “Oh she’s grown up, she’s great.”‘
Tara again brought up her unfounded “bad girl” reputation, claiming that she hasn’t been able to shake it off due to her lifestyle choice of remaining single and childless.
She said, ‘What if you can’t have children or you don’t want to get married? You can’t judge people by that. And it’s the only thing I think is really unfair about our society.”
Tara used the example of other famous women, including Jennifer Aniston and Chelsea Handler, who opened up about the societal pressures of motherhood.
She explained, “If it’s meant to happen, it will happen, but you can’t keep dragging people along with it. Get over it, there are other things to talk about.
“I think people should leave privacy alone when it comes to that kind of personal stuff.”

Tara rose to fame in a supporting role in the hit coming-of-age movie series American Pie.
She was only 23 when she played the role of girl next door Vicky alongside Jason Biggs and Jennifer Coolidge.
Since the release of the first American Pie in 1999, the franchise has built a cult following, and another cinematic sequel was bound to be a blockbuster.
