One thing I like about guest-blogging here while Kevin is gone is that I get to be far more gossipy and tacky than I ever am at WILLisms.com. In that spirit…
The ever-classy Tara Reid has a new show on the E! network, called Taradise. She roams around the world, getting wasted and exploring fabulous locations.
The network bills it (probably mockingly) as a way to improve international relations:
If America has an image problem in the world, Tara Reid is part of the reason, not part of the cure. Especially with nights out like these, with her drinking buddy Paris Hilton (don’t worry, nothing is popping out of her shirt, but I do warn you that supreme trashiness is ahead):

Larger versions can be found here (it is a work-safe site, but there is some adult language).
In my international travels, I have tried to get to the bottom of why some people in the world dislike Americans and American culture. It usually has less to do with American policy than you might think. One of the common threads, meanwhile, is that “Americans drink to get drunk.”

Will Franklin blogs at WILLisms.com.
Great.
We could send her to Saudi Arabia and see what happens.
As the girls at Go Fug Yourself (celeb/fashion blog) put it:
“… when your behavior and appearance makes Paris Hilton look like Grace Kelly, something has gone horribly, horribly wrong.”
Wait–better idea. Send her to noted party spot of the world, Pyongyang.
Eric D. Snider on Tara Reid in Alone in the Dark:
You know “Alone in the Dark” is going to be bad just by looking at the cast list. Tara Reid as a museum curator/archeologist? Who do they think they’re kidding? The only role she’s equipped to play is that of a drunken whore, which she does regularly in the tabloids and on “Inside Edition.” Anything smarter or classier than that is a stretch for her.
So true, so true.
You know, I used to think Tara Reid was kind of cute, at least until she got the boob job. Trouble with a capital T, but cute.
Now she’s just trouble.
fatman, I was thinking that same t-thing about Paris. What an utter waste. Kinda’ like a younger/slimmer Anna Nicole Smith. Why oh why do we have to suffer their celebrity and their high-minded intellect? Just a coupla’ boobs, I tells ya’… nothing more.
Dude, I’m telling Kevin you called his blog gossipy and tacky.
yikes. I question the patriotism of drunk girls with tacky skirts and very little underwear.
I hesitate to say it, but I think she’s so trashed even Paris wants to get away from her.
And what’s with the mini-van? Can’t Paris afford a limo?
What a glowing testiment to the “liberation” of the American woman.
For the sake of full disclosure. Am I the only honest man left in America? There is a time and a place for everything. There is a place for drunken sluts. That place is in bed beside me. Not on national television during prime time!
Maybe she just got typecast early on — you know, as Bunny:
____________
Bunny Lebowski: I’ll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.
Brandt: Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman. We’re all, we’re all very fond of her. Very free-spirited.
Bunny Lebowski: Brandt can’t watch, though, or he has to pay a hundred.
Brandt: Ah haha. That’s marvelous.
The Dude: Uh, I’m just gonna go find a cash machine.
Best comment from the site you linked:
I think Tara’s ass broke the site.
True dat.
Two words:
GITMO TORTURE
That makes it all worthwhile
God bless you, Wizbang Blog.
God bless you, and the work you people do with the animals.
And blondes. Who are drunk. And have breasts. And are drunk.
Tara Reid?
Giggety–giggety!!!
What? You mean that this isn’t what her function in life is, getting drunk and partying? What else is she going to do?
Taravision? I thought it was the reenactment of DRUNK GIRL.
(Not you, Will on Wizbang, but the episodic DRUNKGIRLVISION — utter oxymoron, I realize [not you, Will on Wizbang, but DRUNKGIRLVISION].)
The term “ugly american” did not come from our foreign policy. It came from the crap that Americans do while on vacation/holiday/whatever you call it.
I can’t tell you the number of times I have been in a foreign country and have seen the worst sort of behavior from Americans.
My favorite was the Fat Texan in Heathrow Airport, yes complete with Ten Gallon Hat, Boots, Levi Jeans and the drawl. Bitching at the poor lady who was taking his cash at the cost of the coffee! He bellowed something along the line of, “In Texas this cup of coffee would only cost $.50, this is a ripoff!” She took the cup out of his hand and told him he should go to Texas to get it then.

Hello Tara,
I love seeing you in magazines. I just got back from my second tour in Iraq and both times, I have had every picture that I could get my hands on of you on the walls beside my bed. I think that you are the most beautiful woman on this planet. You are an angel from above. Just wanted to let you know that you keep us going. Hope to talk to you!!
