New Mess Miss USA Crowned


The reign of terror Tara is officially over, and Miss USA Tara Conner passed her crown on to Miss Tennessee, Rachel Smith.

Conner offered Smith this sage advice: "Be yourself and put your own flavor on the title"--just as long as that flavor isn't whiskey, vodka or beer.

Tara has future plans to look forward to, which include writing a book (of course), correspondence work, and some acting.
