Newly released surveillance footage from the Chicago-area hotel where Tara Reid claims she was drugged last month shows the actress downing more drinks than she recalls.
Reid, 50, maintains she was drugged on Nov. 23 at the DoubleTree Hotel by the Chicago O’Hare Airport, insisting she had just one drink, before being wheeled out on a stretcher and taken to the hospital.
Hotel security video, published by TMZ on Friday, shows a bartender bringing a glass of liquid to the “American Pie” actress, who’s wearing a coat and beanie. Reid then pours the contents — which look like white wine — into a wine glass and drinks it.
A different bartender then brings over another refill, as Reid chats up other customers. She then pours that into her wine glass, which she takes with her as she packs up her things and says goodbye.
Another clip shows Reid — no longer wearing the coat, but still wearing the beanie — on the other side of the bar, drinking from a wine glass as she talks with a man, who TMZ identified as YouTuber Sean P.
Reid allegedly named the internet personality in her police report, accusing him of slipping a roofie into her drink. He has denied her allegation.
The surveillance video was published on the heels of Rosemont authorities telling local outlet WFLD that footage they reviewed did not show anyone tampering with Reid’s drinks. They contended that footage only shows a bartender covering a glass that Reid left behind when she went outside to smoke.
Cops are awaiting hospital records and potential chemical testing results.
Reid insisted to TMZ on Wednesday that she only recalled “having one drink and waking up in the hospital the next day without remembering anything.”
