All that plastic surgery to repair her former plastic surgery seems to have done wonders for Tara Reid. Her hair and makeup look gorgeous. She must be laying off the sauce too, because she looks quite sober and clear-eyed at the AFI Festival showing of “The Fountain” in LA on Saturday.

Maybe her next movie will actually play in a theatre somewhere. Pictures [via]

Tara Reid has admitted that she hired a cheap hack who made her look like a Frankenbarbie, ruining her movie career, sending her into a drunken depression, and forcing her to steal swag in order to survive. She said she sold her story to US Weekly in order to pay to get some stuff fixed, and hopes that her next direct-to-DVD horror film helps her afford the mortgage on her condo:

That’s great of poor Tara to come clean and all, and maybe she can make friends with pregnant Tori Spelling now that they’re both selling their sad tales to US to run as cover stories during slow news weeks.

We haven’t seen any pictures of Tara lately apart from the pitiful scene where she got shut out of Hyde and waited patiently, making self-depricating comments. Either she’s so “last week” that she doesn’t warrant the space on the paparrazi’s digital memory cards, or she’s staying out of trouble by not hitting the celebrity hot spots while she’s recovering from surgery.

She looks really cleaned up the cover of US Weekly, and maybe she’ll settle into a comfortable sober lifestyle of relative obscurity, but I doubt it.

You may have seen this yesterday on TMZ, but I usually don’t view videos from their site because they launch a pop-up window, take a while to load, and have loud commercials before them. Here’s the YouTube version. Poor Tara Reid waits outside of Hyde nightclub while Paris and Kim Kardashian come bouncing by and are waved right in. Girls Gone Wild creator Joe Francis comes out and give her a hug and a kiss while she’s waiting at the front of the line with a dejected look on her face. She supposedly said “I’m so yesterday,” but I didn’t hear it with all the background noise. She’s also said to be drunk, but I vote for just a little tipsy. She was probably saving the rest of her liver for the remainder of the night.

Unfortunately there’s no coverage of her being let into the club, but I hope for poor Tara’s sake it was just cut out for dramatic reasons.

Tara Reid squeezed some hapless bearded man in between her ankles while out for a swim. She might have been on vacation from her life of drinking and showing up at events, but it was probably just a day at the beach since she was seen at an X-Games kickoff party on 8/2.

The Chic Mommy has an hilarious Tara Reid interview, in which she says her “hooters are under control.” They were making most of it up though. Sky.co.uk had the original from an FHM interview back in February, and it has some real gems:

Yeah, you heard that already, I know. Poor Tara hasn’t got a chance.

The girl’s face looks like wax, but she’s actually quite pretty when she cleans up. Tara serves as a good example for why one should stay off the juice.

Tara Reid has lamented the fact that people don’t take her seriously as an actress after she’s photographed stumbling all over town in various states of undress. Well it looks like her prayers have been answered and she no longer has to resort to swiping swag, because her brother has created a role custom made for her as the girlfriend of a professional bowler.

A source at ONTD reports that producers were looking for unpaid extras. If they can’t even afford to pay a paltry sum to the poor extras, what’s the film going to look like? It’s gonna suck…

Here’s Tara rocking the early 90s makeup with a friend outside of Cafe Med. This guy is probably gay, as you can see in these earlier pictures of him with the party girl.

Tara Reid was seen out in LA this weekend heading to a club with a new guy. No one at the JJB bulletin board where I found the picture knew who he was, so his identity will remain a mystery for an hour or two until an eagle-eyed blogger identifies him.

Lindsay Lohan hates to be compared to the often visibly-soused Reid. Lohan has said that she doesn’t want her constant partying to jeopardize her career:

Lohan thinks that if she drinks moderately and sticks to doing coke it’s still ok to go most nights of the week. (I made that up obviously, but it could be true.)

Here is Reid with her potential new beau.

Two more after the jump.

Tara Reid and Haylie Duff watched Paris and Nicky walk the catwalk at the 2BFree Fashion Show.

Paris and Nicky posed backstage in what looks like a hotel room. Paris is so inebriated that she comes off as desperate rather than provacative. Eight more after the jump.

Normally that is not news, but there’s a video of a very drunk Tara getting into her car. She must not be able to afford a cab. [via]

A wasted Tara Reid was leaving Dennis Rodman’s Newport Beach House on Wednesday morning when she drove her car into another vehicle. She then made a wise move by giving the driver a wad of cash instead of involving the authorities:

Reid most recently made news by enlisting the help of her friends to clean out the goodie bags at the Diamond Aquifer pre-Oscar suite. Here she is on the day in question hauling her loot.
