Tara Reid hits out at Celebrity Big Brother producers

By Phil Norris

Latest Celebrity Big Brother evictee Tara Reid has slammed the reality show's producers for giving viewers the wrong impression of her.

The 35-year-old became the third person to be evicted from the house last night after being nominated along with Darryn Lyons, Lucien Laviscount and Bobby Sabel.

After being shown a clip in which she railed against fellow contestant Lyons, claiming he wouldn't be in the show for long, the American Pie actress became annoyed.

"I feel like you guys took the toughest times and showed that," she told presenter Brian Dowling, adding it was "no wonder" the public voted her off.

Reid went on to reveal she had a "love-hate relationship" with paparazzo Lyons, who she accused of bullying some of the other housemates.

"I thought he picked on people," the newlywed explained.

Tara becomes the latest Celebrity Big Brother evictee, following Sally Bercow - the wife of House of Commons speaker John Bercow - and David Hasselhoff's ex-wife Pamela Bach-Hasselhoff off the show.

Laviscount, Lyons, Sabel, Jedward, Kerry Katona, Amy Childs and Paddy Doherty are still in the running to win this year's series, which is the first to be shown by Channel 5.
