A Tara Reid-Welcoming Promises Attempts to Assert Its Integrity
3:30AM Kyle Buchanan | Not long after we reported on Tara Reid getting free rehab at Promises, a rep for the rehab facility contacted us, took us into a quiet, seaside-adjacent massage room, and began a healing confrontation. More »
Promises Malibu Now Admitting D-Listers For Free With Proof Of Notoriety
4:13AM Kyle Buchanan | Though our wintry economic climate provides plenty of reasons to drink, it also leaves us with little money to spend on lavish, unhelpful rehab facilities. How bad have things gotten? Just look at Promises! More »
Whitney From ‘The Hills’ Gets Spinoff, New Fake Boyfriend
7:20AM Kyle Buchanan | MTV’s worst-kept rumour has finally been confirmed: eternally OMG-faced Whitney Port (seemingly the most normal member of The Hills) has gotten her own NYC spinoff show, The City. According to Us, “Port, now a Diane Von Furstenberg employee, reunites with ‘a best friend from her past’ and meets ‘a guy she’s head-over-heels for.’” Translation: MTV provides Port with brand-new, camera-ready pals (including NYC socialite Olivia Palermo) and a carefully focus-grouped boyfriend! Paparazzi snaps of Port filming have strongly suggested that the teased love interest is Aussie musician Jay Lyon, who already has one ignoble celebrity relationship on his resume: More »
Can Tara Reid Just Walk Into Hyde For Her Reality Show Cameras Without Having To Be Humiliated By An Asian Paparazzo? Thanks.
8:50AM Seth | While most of her employment opportunities of late have come from Down Under in the capacity of a celebrity shot-girl for hire (do they swirl down your throat in the opposite direction, we wonder?), Tara Reid has apparently also been keeping busy on our own shores, gearing up for an exciting new reality show. (We see no mention of it on her IMDb page, so we’ll assume the first season of Tarafied: Celebrity Foreclosure is a staight-to-web venture.) In the above TMZ segment, one of the scripted verité sequences requires the frequently botched actress to enter formerly fashionable Hollywood social establishment Hyde. One of TMZ’s stanchion-shackled documentarians then helpfully offered some improvised crowd noise—which leads, for some reason, to the frustrated crew repeatedly pointing out his Asian heritage: first disparagingly, then, as a means of bridging the paparazzo/Z-list-entourage divide. Oh, let’s just let TMZ’s Great and Powerful Harv explain it. Roll it, Harv! More »Is “Will Tara Reid Save Dancing With The Stars” A Rhetorical Question?
11:01AM Clem Bastow | It’s probably safe to say that when your celebreality franchise is on the blink and the person you look to as your ratings saviour is Tara Reid, to borrow a phrase from Tilda Swinton’s Angel Gabriel in Constantine, you’re fucked.
Because that seems to be precisely what Dancing With The Stars is looking into, now that Daryl Somers has drifted off, chasing the great microphone in the sky, and the series is not feeling as fresh or edgy as it once did, mainly because, well, they’re running out of “stars” to dance with.
Hoping to amp up interest in the tried and tested formula, production company Freehand are keen to snare an international name to compete on the show after taking over producing rights from Granada.
But following rejections from sizzling UK chef Gordon Ramsay and US style guru Carson Kressley, the calibre of potential celebrity contestants is dropping faster than former host Daryl Somers’s overnight exit from the show last year.
Freehand has been sounding out managers ahead of compiling a list of stars interested in dancing, with desperate C-lister Tara Reid the latest name to be asked to slip into the sequins.
More body-for-hire than on fire, the surgically enhanced blonde accepted as little as $3500 to turn up to parties while visiting Australia to host the tastefully named Hookers costume ball earlier this year.
Ooh, only $3500 to turn up to a crap party! What a cheap whore! Seriously, if someone offered me $50 to come to the Hookers & Deviants Ball, or even $15 to stand outside my local 711, I’d probably take it.
I’m aware that Tara Reid is not the best example to use here, but surely the measure of talent and/or personal value in instances like this is something other than whatever celebrities get paid to appear at things? Or are we all just commodities these days?
SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!! More » Tara Reid Is Coming Down Under!
9:46AM Jess McGuire | We received numerous emails from tipsters yesterday declaring their complete panic at news notorious Hollywood party girl Tara Reid is planning a move to Australia!
Reports SameSame –
Reid has been offered a recording contract with SonyBMG and is set to move into the Rex Apartment Building in Sydney’s Potts Point in March, according to PR man Mark Patrick in the Sunday Telegraph yesterday.
In January 2007, Reid was brought to Australia by ad exec John Singleton and retailer Gerry Harvey. “I love Australia. The people are amazing and I love Australians, they’re a lot of fun and just really good people,” said Reid at the time. It was Singleton who introduced Reid to SongBMG head Denis Handlin, so we’re laying the blame directly on him.
There’s so much we can’t comprehend about the above. John Singleton, a man who allegedly knows what’s hot and what’s not, thinks Tara Reid is the shizz? Tara Reid sings? Tara Reid is being signed by SonyBMG? They’re unable to record whatever musical monstrosities she comes up with overseas? TARA REID IS MOVING TO AUSTRALIA?
Wait, what are we saying? This is great news for Defamer Australia, Sydney-based paparazzi, and amorous Bourbon and Beefsteak attending rugby league players. Welcome to Oz, Tara! More » 
6:25AM Defamer Hollywood | As we noted last week, the holiday season is a happy time for actress-turned-party-host Tara Reid, who’s willing to crisscross the globe, clad in Santa hat and matching furry Grey Goose bottle-holsters, to bring 80-proof cheer to Yuletide revelers on every continent. Sadly, Page Six cites a report claiming that promoters have been lowballing Reid on her asking price, allegedly refusing to meet her previous personal appearance fee. Maybe once prospective employers see how successfully she kept the good times rolling at her recent Hooker’s Ball gig, she’ll be able to push her quote back into the five figures.

Tara Reid Enjoys Playing Hooker For The Evening
11:07AM Clem Bastow | We would’ve reported this yesterday but it took us a day or so to eat our collective hats – we assumed “Tara Reid appearing at Discovery Nightclub in Darwin” was the new “Vin Diesel appearing at the Rooty Hill RSL“, but apparently we were wrong!
H-list “star” Tara was publicised as the VIP guest at the Darwin nightspot’s annual Hookers Ball to wide derision from the press, but it seems Ms Reid carried out her duties – and damned if she didn’t have a ball (arf arf) doing it!
The American Pie star said those criticising her had got it wrong.
“People who want to bag me out are narrow-minded,” she said.
“This is a costume party and everyone is out to have fun and be a little bit crazy. It would be like bagging Halloween.”
…Reid took centre stage at the Ball before a packed crowd after 10pm.
While in Darwin she plans on taking a helicopter tour, getting up-close and personal with a crocodile, and hosting a charity dinner.
“Getting up-close and personal with a crocodile”? That’s the sort of stuff that starts the press talking, Tara. Maybe it’s time for a new PR agent? More »
