"Sharknado" actress Tara Reid walked off Jenny McCarthy's radio show after refusing to answer questions about her participation on the dodgy US reality show "Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars" and her past with plastic surgery.
According to the New York Post, McCarthy started the interview by telling Reid that she loves her on this season of "Marriage Boot Camp" and asking if the actress was glad she got involved in the drama-filled show.
"It is not worth the time to talk about," Reid responded.
When McCarthy pressed for more details, 40-year-old Reid made it clear she would not be talking about the reality show. "Babe, I asked you, please let's not talk about the show. We're all here to talk about 'Sharknado'."
McCarthy, 43, then switched gears to the fourth installment of the cult film, clearly trying to diffuse the situation by asking if Reid had to get in shape before shooting.
"It's not like you really need to get into shape. It's Sharknado. It's, like, fake sharks. They're rubber,"Reid retorted.
For a few seconds the tension settled before McCarthy brought up another sore subject: Reid's plastic surgeries.
McCarthy asked if Reid was done going under the knife. "No, I haven't had any surgery for a while Jenny. I think I've made that clear, like, about 100 times. Maybe that's because you only read the bad things, but I made that really clear (for) so many years, but read what you want to read," Reid said.
McCarthy started to say something else, but Reid cut her off with, "It was really nice talking to you and really good luck with your show."
It then seemed like McCarthy had had enough, wishing Reid good luck and adding, "I hope your knees get a little wobblier than they already are."
There is no word on whether the ladies made up after the show.
