Proving that public perceptions vary around the world, partygirl-turned-botched plastic surgery victim Tara Reid was paid a whopping $100 000 to show at the Gold Coast's Magic Millions carnival in Australia for some extra added Hollywood glamour." Their words, not mine.
Rocking a black embroidered John Cavill (a local designer) gown, Tara arrived at the racetrack by helicopter, escorted by a few local rugby stars.
During the big event where she rubbed elbows with Aussie advertising guru John Singleton and his kids, Tara said while she loved living the celebrity lifestyle, she was keen to leave her partygirl rep behind to focus on finding a hubby and starting a family. "I have grown up a lot ... I can feel my clock ticking ... I have calmed down a lot. I am 31 years old ... I was a partygirl when I was a girl, but now I am a woman. I am like a caterpillar turning into a butterfly."
