Image is everything: now a closet drinkerAww, poor little souse. It must make her parents proud to know their daughter is the poster child for liver disease at the tender age of 31. While Tara has gotten better at keeping her voracious binge drinking out of the public eye, her liver is looking like a hamster in a Cuisinart.
Insiders report that Tara was admitted to a Marina del Ray hospital earlier this month where doctors found elevated liver enzymes, a possible pre-cursor to cirrhosis and liver failure. The feisty little lush was said to be filthy, foul-mouthed and abusive to the minders who accompanied her.
According to the National Enquirer in this week's print edition, a witness at the medical facility said Tara was "emaciated" and that her face was covered with red blotches. Well, duh. The girl was going through withdrawals and probably couldn't keep any food down. At least she wasn't having sex in a dingy stairwell or jacked up against a urinal.
