Tara Reid's rehab stint 'a publicity stunt'?

Washington, Dec 31 (ANI): Actress Tara Reid's recent romp into Malibu's Promises Treatment Centre has created uproar after it was reported she was receiving free treatment in the rehab.

According to Star magazine, Promises were looking to save their ailing business so they gave the American Pie starlet a free ride at their facility - which is otherwise rumoured to be 1600 dollars per night.

However, the rehab facility's rep has called the reports false.

"Promises is committed to keeping the identity of clients private to the best of our ability and Promises does not comments on its fees," Fox News quoted a rep from the rehabilitation facility as telling Tarts.

"All client 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 rep added.

The rep also said that the suggestion that Promises would search Hollywood for a celebrity who needs rehab in an effort to garner publicity is 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. (ANI)
