And yet another Christofascist bigot dances up and joins the ever-growing Conga Line of Lies and Mendacity. Ms. Carrie “No Offense But Gays Are Second Class Citizens” Prejean may be looking at a hairpin turn in her career trajectory:
Having been stripped of her Miss California glory when she failed to make her contractually-obligated public appearances, Prejean was sued by the pageant when she failed to pay them back $5500 they had loaned her for breast implants. She, in turn, filed a lawsuit against them claiming they had discriminated against her over her religion.
According to TMZ, the lawsuits ended today during a surprising meeting between the lawyers for both parties.
As the pageant lawyers played a DVD for Prejean featuring a naked woman in a porno film, she reportedly said, “That’s disgusting.”
But when the camera moved along that naked body to show her face, the words stopped. Fifteen seconds later, the lawsuit was dropped.
The moral of the story: before going all pious and self-righteous at the sight of a porno film, it’s a good idea to make sure that person being penetrated in every orifice for all the world to see isn’t YOU.
Here endeth the lesson.
UPDATE: Think we should tell them?
NAAAAHHHHHH!

Holy shit that’s funny!!! On the net yet?
My Hoover has more in its bag than she has material
between her ears.
Personally I had no qualms with her being honest when she was asked, but if you can’t lose based on your response why even have pagent questions?
It’s silly to me that she tried all this moral highground stuff when she’s done this. While I’m not familiar with Miss America pagent rules, this seems like something that’d disqualify a participant.
Phatbiker – I think so, I’m looking for it now.
Torontonian – I have an acorn squash sitting on my kitchen counter that’s more intelligent than Carrie Prejean.

Ya think?
It couldn’t be considered an entry in the “talent” competition?
FYI peoples — Sounds like it’s not online:
Good morrow, all!

I forget the reason now but, last month I went onto the MA website and contacted them regarding one of their rules. This seems to be something they are not ready to share with just anyone, but given this post, I suppose we can guess what one of them might be.

Well, that didn’t work very well (don’t get this embed stuff).

This won’t hurt her with the “Christians.” There’s nothing they love more than someone who has a “moral lapse” and is sorry.
And they can do it again and again and again and get forgiven every time. A woman could have 50 abortions and be embraced by the foetishists as long as she pretends she’s wracked with guilt over them. That’s why they hate gays so much but love people like Larry Craig and Ted whatthefuckshisname.
Prejean competed in Miss USA.
It is a separate corporation from Miss America, has a talent segment and gives scholarships.
The Miss USA is a feeder into the Miss Universe contest.
Wiki -
“The Miss USA pageant was conceived in 1950 when Yolande Betbeze, winner of the rival Miss America pageant refused to pose for publicity pictures while wearing a swimsuit. Pageant sponsor Catalina decided to pull their sponsorship off the pageant, and create their own competition”
Oookkkay.
Sorry; ‘a separate corporation from Miss America which has a talent segment and gives scholarships.’
Bene D. – thanks for correcting my error
Europe’s different for ‘beauty queens’. Sure, she gave up the crown but sex-tapes in the Jolly Ole England dust-up.
err… should have been ‘no sex tapes…’
JAB – Blame WordPress OK, that works for me. Thanks
