Tara Reid has shared details about a frightening incident in Chicago, saying she believes her drink was spiked at a hotel bar, leaving her unconscious for several hours.

The American Pie star told TMZ Live that she was fortunate not to have been sexually assaulted during the episode.

According to Reid, she went to the hotel bar around 10:30pm Saturday and returned to the hospital by midnight, waking up approximately eight hours later.

She recalled leaving her drink unattended briefly, and when she returned, a napkin covered the glass, something she says she did not place there. After drinking her wine, she says she quickly lost consciousness.

Videos obtained by TMZ show Reid slouched in a wheelchair around 12:30am and later on a stretcher being taken to an ambulance just before 1am.

Hospital staff reportedly told her she had been “drugged,” though she described their explanation as vague and did not ask for specifics.

Reid, who has publicly discussed past struggles with substance use, emphasized that she only had one glass of wine that night.

She also noted that some YouTubers were filming in the hotel during the incident. Reid is reportedly considering filing a police report to investigate the matter further.
