I’m not perfect, I do drink. I do smoke. Carson Daly can’t go out and get messed up, he can’t smoke in front of kids – he’s the face of MTV, and he has to be good. But me? I can.

Meaning of the quote

She can do things like drink and smoke, even in front of kids, because she isn't the public face of a big company like he is. Tara believes she can act differently than someone who has to be a good role model all the time.
