In a recent interview with Bustle published on December 14, Tara Reid, who was once romantically involved with NFL legend Tom Brady, shared her perspective on his current interviews, noting an increased level of confidence, which she described as “cockiness.”
Reid explained that during their casual encounters in the past, Brady used to be more carefree, skinny, and lighthearted. However, she observed a shift in his demeanor, particularly in his interviews, where he now appears more serious and self-assured.
Reid’s comments sparked attention on social media, with people discussing her characterization of Brady as “cocky.”
In response to the chaos, she took to X, formerly Twitter on Friday to clarify that she meant “confident” instead of “cocky.”
She emphasized that she intended to compliment Brady and said that she had nothing negative to say about him.
“As for cocky I meant confident. I was saying I feel like he used to be more shy that’s all didn’t mean it in a bad way, I was trying to compliment him. But he deserves it he accomplished so much and I am so happy for him, Tom Brady. I would never have anything bad to say about him,” wrote Tara.
