Tara -- Starving For Attention?

Ya gotta love Tara Reid; she'll take whatever attention she can get, and work it.

TMZ spotted Reid, who looked a lot more glam than the train wreck we're used to seeing, coming out of Mr. Chow last night with her brother and a man she introduces as the "creator of iTunes," who resembled Mr. Clean in an L.A. City Seal tee shirt.

The resurgified "American Pie" star signed photos for all the hungry autograph seekers and even posed for photogs against a brick wall outside the restaurant. Most celebs at the Beverly Hills eatery are usually in a hurry to escape the cameras, but not our Tara!
