Tara Reid experienced a minor meltdown while shopping in Los Angeles last week.
The actress recently paid a visit to All Saints in an effort to find an outfit for Coachella. When store employees refused to give Reid a discount, she allegedly started screaming at the staff .
An anonymous individual who witnessed the incident said Tara Reid demanded a discount because she was famous. When employees at the shop disagreed with her shopping philosophy, she threw a fit and began yelling at the people behind the counter.
“She was screaming. She had to be escorted out by security. She seemed drunk,” a source explained. “[She] began to scream at them and was escorted out.”
Although this sort of behavior might seem out of the ordinary for most shoppers, apparently Tara Reid gets discounts in the United Kingdom and Paris because she essentially acts as a billboard for the brand.
“She gets photographed, so they give her huge hookups. We told them we get a discount, and they said they’d email the press team,” a representative for the actress explained to the New York Post . “Tara didn’t think it made sense and asked them to check again.”
The rep added that Tara Reid didn’t get escorted out of the store by security. She reportedly left the store on her own free will. The actress also left the shop without any of her potential purchases.
“She was definitely not drunk. People love to say Tara’s hammered and this and that … whoever is saying that is not on Team Tara,” the representative continued.
Reid’s contribution to the world of cinema has dwindled in the past few years. Her last big-screen endeavor was Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg’s sequel American Reunion . She can be found next in the high-concept horror flick Sharknado .
