Confident: Tara Reid at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas yesterday


Botched cosmetic procedures shattered her confidence six years ago, but Tara Reid looked happy to be back in a bikini in Las Vegas yesterday.

The American Pie actress wore a bright green string two-piece as she attended the second annual Love Festival at The Palms Casino Resort.

Ripply tummy: Reid on the beach in 2007


It's the first time Reid has stepped out in a bathing suit since doctors corrected previous surgery that left her disfigured, according to America's Us Weekly.

She went under the knife in 2004, but her joint liposuction and breast enhancement operation went drastically wrong.

'It looked like I got completely butchered up,' she later said of her enlarged cleavage.

Of her liposuction, Reid added: 'I had body contouring, but it all went wrong. My stomach became the most ripply, bulgy thing.'

But she is once again comfortable in her own skin - so much so that the 34-year-old even posed for Playboy in December last year.

'I'm relaxed,' she told the publication at the time.

'I'm a young woman with confidence ... At the end of the day, I go to sleep knowing who I am.

'I'm happy with my life now, and I'd like to keep it this way.'

Reid, who has seen her career stall in recent years, is due to appear in a low-budget thriller called The Fields.
