The “American Pie” actress, aged 50, was hospitalized on Sunday, November 23. She fell unconscious while staying at a hotel in Rosemont, Illinois. Reid informed TMZ about her experience, which was reported on Monday.

• She alleged that the drugging occurred after ordering a drink at the hotel bar.
