Now that she's no longer under the watchful eye of Donald Trump and the Miss USA Organization, Tara Conner has started surrounding herself with a more adult crowd -- like adult film star Tera Patrick!

The former Mess USA turned it out on the red carpet at Spike TV's "Guy's Choice" Awards on Saturday, by posing with her new buxom porntress pal. Let's be friends!

Tara may have gone to rehab to save face, but, unfortunately, her pancake makeup leaves her sporting a porn face. Someone give these ladies a facial!
