Tara Reid

According to Star Magazine,Tara Reid's recent romp into Malibu's Promises Treatment Center (which also housed other troubled Tinseltowners Lindsay Lohan andBritney Spears) was given to her for free and that unlike all other patients, the "American Pie" starlet's bags were not searched.

But as it turns out, Miss Reid really does have to pay for her Malibu stay which is a rumored $1600 per night.

"Promises is committed to keeping the identity of clients private to the best of our ability and Promises does not comments on its fees," a rep from the rehabilitation facility told Tarts. "Allclient belongings are searched, as are all incoming packages. Rooms are subject to search at random and all clients are treated the same and expected to follow the same set of rules with no exceptions."The treatment facility's rep also said that the suggestion that Promises would search Hollywood for a celebrity who needs rehab in an effort to garner publicity is libelous, offensive and without any basis in reality and are demanding the magazine print a retraction before further action is taken.

Reid checked into Promises on December 9 but declined to announce publicly what she was being treated for.

A rep for Reid also confirmed that the actress is certainly not receiving free or special treatment on her road to recovery.

A publicist says Tara Reid has checked herself into rehab. Jack Ketsoyan said Friday that the "American Pie" star went to the Promises Treatment Center. He did not specify what she was being treated for or when she entered the facility.

"We appreciate your respect to her and her family's privacy at this time," he said in a statement.

Reid, 33, earned a reputation as a drunken partier after famously being photographed on a red carpet with her breast exposed, apparently unaware that the strap of her dress had fallen off.

Her film credits include "Van Wilder" and "The Big Lebowski." She also hosted the short-lived, half-hour show "Taradise" on E!
