Tara Conner to compete for Miss Universe title
BALTIMORE -- Tara Elizabeth Conner, 20, of Russell Springs, Ky., was crowned Miss USA in the 55th annual pageant last night.
"I am an easygoing, down-to-earth girl," Conner said. "Throughout my life, hardships and different experiences have made me a very humbled, yet strong individual. It is because of these life lessons that I have become the person I am today."
She will compete July 23 in the Miss Universe competition in Los Angeles.
Miss California USA, Tamiko Nash, 26, of Los Angeles, was first runner-up.
The 51 contestants were trimmed to 15, then 10 semifinalists and finally five finalists for last night's competition.
The five finalists were asked questions.
The pageant is co-owned by Donald Trump and NBC, which aired the competition.
