With an ongoing role on Scrubs, three movies in the can and a coal miner on her dance card, things look pretty good for the former Hollywood party girl—good and sexy!
STUFF: You went to high school with a bunch of other actors, including Jerry O’Connell. Did you see Kangaroo Jack out of a feeling of obligation? TARA: I did see Kangaroo Jack. [Laughs] When you know someone forever, you see them and you just laugh. It’s cute.
Paris Hilton is another friend of yours. What do you think of The Simple Life? I think it’s hilarious. I think they’re adorable on it. It’s totally two different worlds that intertwine, and it’s funny to see how they interact.
Have you seen her infamous sex tape? No, I haven’t. I don’t want to watch my friends have sex. That doesn’t really do it for me.
Have you talked to her about it? No offense, but even if I did, I’m not going to tell you. That’s personal. If she’s not talking, why would I be the one who said something?
Because it might help me get a promotion! You auditioned for the role of Mary Jane in Spider-Man but didn’t get it. Did you root for it to fail miserably? I know I would have. If you got hung up on every movie you didn’t get, you’d quit. That’s just bitter. If I don’t get it, it wasn’t meant to be. Whatever cards are dealt to me, I’ll deal with them. But if I don’t get something, I’m not angry at the people. There’s always another movie.
