This morning on the Today show,Matt Lauer interviewed, Tara Conner, Miss USA, her first post- rehab interview. Conner admitted to Matt that she displayed "basically insane" behaviour,was an alcoholic, "equal opportunity" drug user, dishonest and a master manipulator . Conner also hinted at "abuse" in her past, but wouldn't discuss details as she wanted to respect the privacy of her family. Lauer didn't accept no for an answer and came at her like a battering ram, trying to get Tara to speak about the "abuse". Tara didn't give in so eventually Matt let it drop.
Tara was also sporting a new hair style, with bangs, a much softer look, I'm sure to make her appear more innocent and younger. There was a lot of "therapy speak" and Tara appeared to be very media savvy and smooth in her answers to Matt. The Miss USA pageant does a great job with PR!
My favorite quote from the whole interview was when Tara said that she had an "allergic reaction" to the drugs and alcohol. An allergic reaction that makes you hook up with Miss Teen USA in Manhattan Bars.
Tara then went on to promise Matt that she would never, ever pose nude for Playboy.
