Why Carrie Prejean lost her Miss California crown

Prejean: No longer Miss California

(Corbis)

Best opinion: TMZ, Kansas City Star, Village Voice

"Carrie Prejean is officially out as Miss California USA because she doesn't play well with others," said TMZ. The controversial beauty queen—who clashed with blogger Perez Hilton because of her anti-gay marriage stance, and who almost lost her crown for posing topless in photos—was fired by the producers of the Miss California pageant for "breaching her contract." Apparently, Prejean "has been a no-show for appearances" and hasn't been asking for "clearance to do her extracurricular" projects.

"What a difference a few weeks has made," said Lisa Gutierrez in the Kansas City Star. Just last month, Miss USA organization co-owner Donald Trump decided to let Prejean keep her crown despite "controversy over topless photos of her that surfaced online." But Prejean will probably be fine. She reportedly "wants to write a book," and maybe Fox will give her a job—"she recently subbed as a host on the network's morning show Fox & Friends."

All I can say to Carrie Prejean, said Michael Musto in The Village Voice, is good riddance! "I'm thrilled about this turn of events—it's poetic justice." She's not a "nice" person, she's a hypocrite, and her anti–gay marriage comments during the Miss USA pageant were not only intolerant, they were "dim-witted."

Posted by Christian Response, Wednesday, June 10, 2009, 6:19 pm Hey Michael Musto, you're the hypocrite. You say that she's intolerant for her views. Well, if you're so tolerant then why don't you tolerate her and her views? You're just as intolerant.Though I think Carrie Prejean actions are wrong, I do want to point out Mr. Musto that you're just as much the hypocrite that she is. If you hate intolerance, then you should start tolerating everyone...even the intolerant

ABC 061608I believe that marriage is the union between a man and a woman. Now, for me as a Christian, it's also a sacred union. You know, God's in the mix. interview Rev Rick Warren 081608I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage. MTV 110108Stand up to the intolerant and dimwitted Obama and leave Prejean alone. Maybe you could help make the world better instead of making it more hateful. Get a back bone!
