Tara Reid looking like hell, hanging on to her security team as she exits the VIP Room night club in Cannes, France.

I kind of miss Tara’s party girl days. Not like she doesn’t party anymore, she has just been good at staying out of the spotlight.

I like the pic of her where it looks like she has a nut hanging out of her skirt. Heh.

Tara Reid checked into Promises Treatment Center less than a month ago and is expected to check out soon.

She is looking forward to starting her new year sober after years of public drunkenness.

The actress has the support of her family and friends who believe rehab was a step in the right direction.

A source who claims to be close to Reid says, “She’s doing well. The whole family is very positive about this being the new beginning for her. They [family] are taking steps to do everything they can to help Tara keep on the right track.”

Reid is expected to check out shortly.

Her publicist will not comment on what she is being treated for.

Oh, and remember all those blogs last month who claimed Tara was out celebrating her 30th birthday right after “checking in” to rehab?

UNTRUE.

It’s like one blog posted the three-year-old pics and everyone else picked it up, copied the photos and ran with it. No one actually checked to see if it was true. Go figure.

That is the trouble with celebrity blogs these days. They all copy each other.  It’s so lame. Gone are the days when there were only a few of us out there – each doing our own thing. It’s a big copy fest now…and I think it sucks.

For the record, the photos they posted were from a previous birthday – and Tara is 33.

“I’ve been a media target for years now. It does hurt my feelings, but what can I do? I have to move on. They are my battle wounds.”

Tara Reid thinks that the reason she isn’t working is because the writer’s strike is still in effect.

Hey, no one ever said this girl was the sharpest crayon in the box.

Before speaking to the folks at Fox News last week Miss Reid must have tossed a couple back or smoked a fattie, because what she said made no sense.

“I totally plan to go back into acting once the strike stops. The economy is so bad right now that people are afraid to put money back into acting. Even the shows that seem new, they really shot six months ago. So when it’s all back up again, I will go back into it. That’s my heart.”

Awhhh, isn’t that sweet? Tara actually thinks she still has a career! Heh.

And how is it actually possible for her to not know that the strike was over? Probably because no one told her. Why should they, she wouldn’t be working either way!

Ex-party girl Tara Reid is reportedly engaged to French fashion boss, Julien Jarmoune.

The couple haven’t been dating very long. They met while Tara was doing research for her new fashion line, Mantra.

A friend of Tara’s swears this is the real thing.

“Tara’s really in love with this guy, and he’s had an amazingly calming effect on her. She’s trying to clean up her reputation. Julien has definitely changed Tara for the better. It looks like she’s finally gotten her act together. They’re talking about a wedding next summer.”

Tara was engaged to Carson Daly briefly in 2000.
