With only 11 days left in her tumultuous reign as Miss USA, Tara Conner's got a new strategy for staying relevant -- by donning a bikini for a sexy photo shoot. Wreckariffic!

"EXTRA" caught the rehabbed party girl, and 51 other swimsuit-clad beauties who will compete for Tara's tarnished crown to be the next Miss USA, posed for a group photo outside the of Universal Studios Hollywood earlier today.

Though the competition doesn't take place until March 23, a few of the ladies wanted the spotlight today, and jumped into a fountain to splash around for photogs.
