More than two decades after she shot to global fame as the sweet and sharp-tongued Vicky Lathum in American Pie, Tara Reid is sparking debate among fans.

The 49-year-old actress recently sat down for an interview that has sparked widespread conversation online, not just for what she said, but for how dramatically different she now looks.

Fans were left stunned after a clip of Tara’s interview resurfaced on TikTok via the Back to the Best podcast.

Many took to the comments section to express their surprise at her transformed appearance. "That’s… I mean… I hope she is ok," one wrote, while another simply commented, "Wow. She looks so different."

In a previous interview with the Los Angeles Inquisitor, the star directly addressed the long-standing speculation that has surrounded her health and body image, hitting back at rumours with a quiet, firm clarity.

"I have no anorexia and never have," she said. "And I definitely don’t have any bulimia. I’m terrified of throwing up, so that’s not going to happen. And I love food too much."

"Anyone that says I’m anorexic or bulimic, they’re wrong," she continued. "Leave me alone. Pick on me for something else, but not on those two things."
