Tara Reid arrives in Oz
10 January 2007

Hollywood actress Tara Reid has been spotted arriving at Brisbane airport as she prepared to enjoy a break in Australia.

The star of the American Pie movies had to endure a gruelling 33-hour flight as she made her way from South America.

Never one to make a quiet entrance, the 31-year-old was whisked away as soon as she set foot on Australian soil, with a helicopter waiting close by.

This flew her to the Nerang River, where it landed on a floating helipad, before Reid was taken to her hotel on the Gold Coast.

'I'm feeling good but I'm tired,' the actress told waiting reporters.

'It's been a long flight but that was probably the coolest thing, landing in the helicopter.'

Although Reid was claiming that she needed some rest, it is clear from the star's itinerary for the holiday that she will be a very busy girl.

It all starts with a Magic Millions cocktail party at a casino, before she takes to the water with the dolphins at Sea World.

This is followed by a trip to the races, something Reid is very much looking forward to.

'I'm really excited about the races. I can't wait to see the races, the horses, the fireworks. It's going to be a lot of fun tonight. I'm really excited to be here in Australia,' she said.
