Tara Reid laments her party gal image

Tara Reid wants to prove she’s a great actress instead of a party girl. The actress says the media has unfairly represented her and that she just needs a good movie to break the stereotype.
“I think there must be a journalist school where students are taught how to kill Tara Reid,” the 29-year-old actress says in a Steppin’ Out magazine issue on newsstands Oct. 12. “The one thing I want to say about American journalists is: why is partying and having a good time bad?” Reid says. “And how come when someone else gets messed up or is a junkie or gets DUI’d and goes to rehab and is considered a hero again?”—Agencies
