Get ready for lots of six-second bikini selfies from Tara Reid!

The 39-year-old Sharknado star joined Vine Wednesday, and although she is fully clothed in her first two videos, she's every bit as entertaining as she is on her other scantily-clad social media accounts.

In her very first Vine, the former American Pie star essentially makes herself into a human GIF, acting out, "When Girls Go to the Hair Salon they be like..." She wails dramatically in the clip as a stylist fusses over her hair. "Ah, you're ripping out my hair," she cries (although if you watch closely, you'll see it's actually Tara playfully removing her own extensions).

Tara's second Vine doesn't disappoint either. She fends off a fake shark, animatedly demonstrating her caption of, "When I See a Shark I be like..."

She even gets in a plug for Sharknado 3, warning, "Hey, I hear there's a Sharknado coming. Get out of here!"

Tara will be reprising her role as April Wexler for the campy Syfy franchise, and she's beyond excited for the freakish storm to hit the "Feast Coast"—aka DC to Orlando and everywhere in between.

Ian Ziering will also be back for the third film, and apparently the whole Sharknado team has high hopes when it comes to celeb cameos. Just last month, in fact, Tara reached out to Lady Gaga on Twitter, telling the recently engaged pop star, "a we really want you to be in #Sharknado3 but we are having a hard time getting in touch with your people please tell them [heart]."

No word yet on whether that will happen, but don't count out the possibility of seeing some very recognizable faces in the flick. Plenty of stars appeared in Sharknado 2: The Second One, including Matt Lauer, Al Roker, Kelly Ripa, Michael Strahan, Billy Ray Cyrus and Andy Dick.

Hopefully Tara will post some teasers of what to expect on her social media accounts—Twitter, Instagram and now, Vine, too!
