Actress Tara Reid and former accused killer O.J. Simpson were among the elite who had trouble getting in and out of parties at the Kentucky Derby over the weekend.
Tara Reid was left red faced at a celebrity feast before the famous horse race when she reportedly misplaced her identification. Louisville police refused to let the star into the party on Friday night because they didn't know who she was and as she couldn't prove she was who she said she was.
After a lengthy chat, the authorities decided to let Reid enjoy the party, but not before the altercation was caught on camera. Reid insists the matter was completely blown out of proportion. She later said, "I was waiting for my friend to come in."
I guess the cops didn't see the photos from the P. Diddy birthday bash last November when Reid's boobs flashed an entire roomful of photographers for a long time, and then she got all huffy about it when the pics appeared on the internet. (Click on the link and wait for the page to load - and if it loads slowly in your browser, it's even funnier.) Speaking of the Diddy thing, how can you not know when your boob is hanging out? I've only heard of two chicks in my life who could walk in a room and NOT notice such a total slip of the dress strap - Anna Nicole Smith, Tara Reid, and my former college best bud Diane. Wait. That's three.
Meanwhile, back at the Derby ... things apparently got a little weird during another party when Usher had O.J. Simpson’s girlfriend thrown out. According to the New York Daily News, it all happened early Saturday morning when Usher spotted Simpson at a party being given by Stuff magazine and invited him to join him in his V.I.P. corner.
A witness observed: "O.J.'s girlfriend kicked Usher in the leg. Usher didn't know she was with O.J., but when it happened his security threw her out of the party." O.J. had to go outside in order to talk to security to let her back in again.
