InstagramThe countless bikini pics Tara Reid posts make it seem like she's completely comfortable with her body, but critics of the super-skinny star claim she's using Photoshop to make herself look even thinner!
The 39-year-old Sharknado star's waistline looked a bit peculiar in the swimsuit photos she Instagrammed Sunday from her vacation in Mexico. It appeared as if the American Pie alum tried to digitally alter the shot to make her already tiny midsection even tinier. Only, because there's not much to Photoshop away in the first place, Tara's alleged edit looked a bit jagged and unnatural.
The former It Girl, who has yet to comment publicly on whether or not she did indeed Photoshop the pics, is accustomed to strangers critiquing her physique. She tweeted a picture of herself in a rainbow-printed bikini on Sunday, which another user of the microblogging site reposted, adding, "you need help and a couple of burgers!"
She responded to the user's dig lightheartedly, retweeting their insult and responding, "I just had 3 [burgers] 4 u."
Tara's petite frame has been under scrutiny for most of her career, but she's consistently claimed to be healthy. Back in 2008, she told OK Magazine definitively, "I'm not too thin."
"I go up 10 pounds, I do down 10 pounds," she said. "I was thin for a movie that I just finished...Now they're going to see me and say I'm too fat because I've gained 10 pounds...I can't win!"
Tara insisted she has a healthy relationship with food and exercise, but she has admitted to getting some bad plastic surgery in the form of a boob job! "I got my breasts done for the first time because my breasts were uneven. I was a 34B, but the right one was always bigger than the left," she told Us Weekly in 2006.
"First of all, I asked for big Bs, and he [the doctor] did not give me big Bs," she said. "He gave me Cs, and I didn't want them. At all."
"Right after the surgery, I had some bumps along the edges of my nipples, but the doctor said, 'Don't worry, it's going to be better,'" she recalled. "But after six months it started to get worse and worse."
She also admitted to getting liposuction, telling the mag, "even though I was skinny, I wanted—I'm not going to lie—a six-pack. I had body contouring, but it all went wrong. My stomach became the most ripply, bulgy thing."
"I'll never be perfect again," she told Us Weekly, "but I've got my self confidence back."
