Donald Trump gave the 21-year-old blonde and busty Miss USA a second chance. How big of him.
Kentucky's Tara Conner came thisclose to getting dethroned amid reports of her underage partying ways in the Big Apple. (She just turned 21 on Monday.) But after what was probably a heartfelt meeting this morning, the old Trumpster decided to give her a second chance. 'Cause Trump's like God in this case. He owns -- literally, with NBC -- the Miss Universe organization.
"In a tear-choked voice, Conner said, "In no way did I think it would be possible for a second chance to be given to me."Turning to Trump, she said, "You'll never know what this means to me, and I swear I will not let you down."
Trump said Conner would be entering rehab."
How much more Hollywood of an ending can you get? Too bad for Miss California, though. Had Miss USA gotten the boot, LA native and first runner-up Tamiko Nash would have captured the crown tiara.

You have an extra "/" at the end of the Tamiko link that is messing things up.
Fixed, thanks
well , too bad for Miss California. May be she should also think of a personal " meet up " with trump.
well with money and power anything can happen. maybe he got something in return that we will never know and dream of
I can only imagine what would bring about such a remarkable change of heart in Trump. Especially considering his seemingly zero tolerance policey the last time he stipped a girl of her title.
Well, at least I'm sure her tears are real.
Good for you TARA!!! ...We're proud of you in Kentucky ...!!
Do some research! Donald Trump has nothing to do with Miss America. The young woman is Miss USA. And if you don't think the difference matters, that is a bad commentary on your journalistic accuracy.
Because she is wearing a sash saying USA, this means she is not in the Miss America Organization, she is in the Miss USA organization; therefore she is Miss USA. Be careful that Miss America, Jennifer Berry, doesn't get a bad name because this says that "Miss America" not "Miss USA" was almost dethroned.
Tara Conner is Miss USA, not Miss America. Miss USA and Miss America are two different pageants.
