Biography
Early life
Reid was born in Wyckoff, New Jersey to Donna and Tom Reid, both of whom are teachers and day care centre owners. She has a younger sister, Colleen, and two brothers, Tom (who is a twin of Colleen) and Patrick.[1] Reid grew up in New Jersey.
Career
Reid began her career at the age of six in 1982 on the short-lived 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". She has appeared as J.D.'s (
Zach Braff) girlfriend in the NBC comedy
Scrubs.
Taradise, her half-hour television show on the E! network, premiered in September 2005; it was cancelled the following month. The show was an updated incarnation of E!'s popular series Wild On, where a celebrity host or model traveled to exotic locations to party with locals. Previously during Summer 2005, she was busy shooting Incubus in Romania at an assortment of clubs with Bucharest's local socialites. In January 2007, Reid filmed a commercial with Daniel Conn for Dodo, an Australian phone and internet provider.
Personal life
Carson Daly made a cameo appearance in Josie and the Pussycats, in which Reid played the Pussycat Melody. The two began a romantic relationship shortly thereafter. In June 2001, Reid and Daly broke off their engagement.[3] She previously had dated Russian hockey star, Sergei Fedorov. In the late 1990s she dated actor Steve Burton and still is close to him and his family.[4] She briefly dated New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Kyle Boller, New York Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey,[5] and tennis player Mark Philippoussis.[6]
On the night of November 4, 2004, Reid was embarrassed by a wardrobe malfunction 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.[7] In October 2006, she admitted in an interview with Us Weekly that she also had liposuction.[8] 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 Us Weekly 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.While touring Australia, she has been spotted on the Gold Coast with Sydney comedian Chris Taylor and has been modeling clothes for the reject shop.
On
New Year's Eve 2006, at a large celebration in
Chicago, Tara made several numerical errors in hosting the minute-long countdown for the year. A video of the incident circled the Internet, leading to wide-spread criticism of her intelligence and level of inebriation.
