The American Pie actress speaks out against her body critics
Wednesday, 29 October 2008
Tara Reid has a message for anyone wishing to criticize her body: Enough already!
After unflattering bikini shots of her surfaced last week, Reid faced a barrage of Internet attacks aimed at her post-surgery figure. "I've been a media target for years now," the actress, 33, tells PEOPLE. "It does hurt my feelings, but what can I do? I have to move on."
Yet moving on has been difficult, especially because Reid has to live with the evidence of the past – the scars on her stomach from a 2004 liposuction surgery and subsequent reconstructive surgery in 2006. "They are my battle wounds," she says of her "uneven" abs.
Producing independent films like 7-10 Split and working on her first clothing line, Mantra, keeps her busy. The line of bikinis, t-shirts, and casual wear is inspired by her moods.
"Red is for love, green for luck, white for peace – everything gives you a mantra of the day," says Reid, who is currently dating business partner Julien Jarmoune. "I made this line about feeling good about yourself."
