Tara Won't Be Gone With the Wind

Next year, Tara Connor will relinquish, on schedule, her title as Miss USA when a new young princess is given the crown by a panel of all-star celebrity judges, some of whom whose names I will recognize.

Before last week, that would have pretty much meant the end of this young beauty's time in the spotlight. After the new winner was crowned, it is very possible that the world would little note nor long remember the reign of Tara.

That is, until she (allegedly) took drugs, drank alcohol before turning 21 and kissed a girl.

In the era of Paris Hilton, Tara Connor is now a celebrity with staying power. And you can thank those sweet lesbian kisses.
