Tara Reid was touted as one of Hollywood's next "It Girls" when she starred in American Pie in 1999, but her frequent wild nights out curbed her career in a big way. Reid told Rolling Stone in 1999 (via The Huffington Post,) "When I go out to drink, I really drink. I black out sometimes. I don't know how I manage my life when I black out but I still function and just keep going."
She checked into rehab in December 2008, just a month after telling People that she didn't plan on getting into any more trouble. "Trust me: I've done enough of everything for a lifetime! I partied. I had fun. I ate and drank and dated a million guys, but I'm so happy with where I am right now," she said. "I don't need to do any of that anymore."
Despite her stint, Reid told Access Hollywood in March 2012 that her partying was "not that bad" and that she simply learned to "be more discreet" about having a good time.
However, by February 2014, she told In Touch, "I went [to rehab] by myself. I put myself there. It was the greatest decision I ever made... The hardest thing was walking through the door for the first time — finally admitting that I had a problem. I had been in such denial." She added, "Rehab saved my life... I am clean and sober and I am excited."
