One of the most ridiculous attention-getting statements ever.

From imdb:Reid: "I'm Not Stupid Like Hilton and Lohan"

Actress Tara Reid will never get into trouble with the authorities because she isn't "stupid" like party girls Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton. The American Pie beauty, 31, insists she is a reformed party girl and is no longer prepared to risk her career, insisting her work comes before her social life. She says, "I think the reason I never ended up in as much trouble as Paris or Lindsay seem to is that I'm not stupid, so I'd never do a lot of the things those girls do, and I've always had good friends around me. They need to straighten up a little bit and make better investments. And they should surround themselves with better people who don't let them get themselves in trouble. You'll never read a story about me going out and partying when I'm supposed to be working. Nor would I show up on a set drunk or miss a day's work - never."
Miss a day's work? What work? She hasn't been in anything in ages. Oh, Alone in the Dark and that was such a big hit. A movie called Senior Skip Day-quality! One of a billion Crow remakes (oh, Eddie Furlong, how far you've fallen!)... which I might actually have to see just because it has David Boreanaz who, in the Michael Wincott character, killed the main character and his girlfriend "on his way to becoming an immortal demon." Thank god he landed Bones or he might have stayed in flicks like that.

The reason this statement irks me is that, right now, neither Hilton nor Lohan are even much in the media. If she'd made this statement around the time that Lohan was caught with the cocaine and ran over the guy's foot, sure. But... Lohan's been in rehab for the past two months. She hasn't missed work because she's had no work. She fucked up on the set of Georgia Rule a couple of years ago. And as much as Hilton is kind of a media whore, she disappeared a bit also after her jail stint. Both Hilton and Lohan haven't made any real missteps in the past couple of months-yet, today, Reid feels the need to publicly decry them? That bandwagon passed months ago, dear. I think the drugs you did made you just a little slow.

I will say that I liked her in Girl, though.
