"Tara Reid didn&amp;apos;t spend enough time doing her homework. Appearing on Discovery&amp;apos;s Shark After Dark with Sharknado co-star Ian Ziering on Tuesday, Aug. 6, the 37-year-old actress confused the audience -- and herself -- while discussing the mating habits of animals. &amp;quot;How do a whale and a shark have sex?&amp;quot; she asked.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Today, I was like, all right, I don&amp;apos;t wanna, like, sound stupid when I do this show today, like. . . so I learned a little education on sharks,&amp;quot; Reid explained to host Josh Wolf. &amp;quot;So I look up sharks on the internet and I see whale sharks so I&amp;apos;m like that must mean that a whale and a shark have sex and then it made me think how do a whale and a shark have sex?&amp;quot;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;There is a thing called whale sharks and then I realized whales are mammals and sharks are animals so they have nothing to do with each other,&amp;quot; the American Pie star continued, unaware of Zieling and Wolf&amp;apos;s confused expressions. &amp;quot;So basically the dolphins have sex with each other but the sharks don&amp;apos;t, so then I thought how is it such a thing?&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nWith no sign of stopping -- even with laughter filling the room -- Reid continued to share her misinformation. &amp;quot;But the difference is there is a whale shark which is the biggest shark in the ocean, he&amp;apos;s also scary and then you have the great white who&amp;apos;s also scary. There are over 400 kinds of shark but the whale shark is kind of interesting because he&amp;apos;s so mean &amp;#x2013; he&amp;apos;s like a killer.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nThough she tried researching for the Syfy film, word is still out on whether or not Reid will be reprising her role as Ziering&amp;apos;s estranged wife April in the Sharknado sequel.\r\n&amp;quot;There is no script for sharknado 2 until i read it then i will make a decision but everyone that is saying i got cut that is not true#liars,&amp;quot; Reid tweeted on July 28, denying rumors at the time that she would not be returning."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
