Prejean Derangement Syndrome

Well, the lovely Miss Carrie Prejean is back in the news again. Seems her foodfight with the Miss California organizers is just never going to end. Now the petty folks who run the pageant are trying to hit her up for $5,200 they supposedly paid for her breast implants. All I know is it was money well spent, IYKWIMAITYD.
Deposed beauty queen Carrie Prejean still owes $5,200 for breast implants floated by pageant organizers in January, a new lawsuit claims.

Ex-Miss California Carrie Prejean stiffed pageant organizer K2 Productions even though she requested the surgery "to be more competitive" at the April 2009 Miss USA pageant and verbally agreed to repay the K2 loan, a complaint filed yesterday states.

Prejean was stripped of her crown June 10 for alleged contract violations.

She later sued, accusing pageant officials of targeting her for a pageant answer she gave opposing gay marriage.

"Even before she became notorious for that answer and the ensuing media storm, Ms. Prejean was already causing difficulty," the K2 counter-suit states.

"With her new-found notoriety, an inflated sense of self, and the lure of financial gain available to her, Ms. Prejean turned even further against the Miss California USA organization."
Meanwhile, did you know she has a book coming out?

I'm sure this will be well received in the angry left community.

In other hot babe news today, it's been revealed Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr is concerned people think she's too skinny. This is very troubling. Since when did models concern themselves with their weight?
Model Miranda Kerr blames the camera angle for her looking seriously skinny in a recent photo shoot.

Her swimwear shoot in Sydney last week for Grazia Australia sparked concern since the normally curvy model seemed to show a dramatic drop in weight, says the Daily Mail.

But the 26-year-old defended herself.

"The exaggerated poses for the shoot have made me appear thinner than normal from behind, but I am the same weight and measurements I have maintained for more than three years," she told Grazia Australia.

"I am conscious of not only maintaining but promoting a healthy lifestyle and I wouldn't be able to sustain the hectic nature of my modelling commitments if I wasn't 100 percent committed to feeding my body the food, vitamins and minerals it needs," she added.
She then proceeded to dine on a breadcrumb for lunch. Maybe it's just me, but she looks fine.

Carrie Prejean to Sue Miss California Officials

Good for her. And good for us since we get another opportunity to run a photo of the lovely Miss Carrie Prejean.
Carrie Prejean’s attorney, Charles S. LiMandri announced today that the former Miss California USA is filing a complaint in the Superior Court of California against Miss California USA officials Keith Lewis and Shanna Moakler, and publicist Roger Neal. The complaint cites damages to Miss Prejean including libel, public disclosure of private facts, religious discrimination, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and negligent infliction of emotional distress.

Miss Prejean was fired from her role as Miss California USA in June of this year, following several months of controversy over her answer at the Miss USA pageant regarding same-sex marriage. Lewis claimed Miss Prejean’s termination was due to a violation of contract. Miss Prejean’s complaint will refute that allegation, and demonstrate that both the chronology and factual evidence clearly show she lived up to all her contractual obligations, but was fired, harassed and publicly attacked solely due to her religious beliefs.
Countdown to a meltdown from Ms. Perez Hilton is on...

Update: A reader says 'Photos of Carrie Prejean are like Lay's Potato chips....you can't have just one.'

Indeed! What was I thinking?

New Miss California: Marriage Is Between a Man and a Woman

Too funny. Heads are definitely popping over this, and said on Fox News to boot.
Tami Farrell, the newly crowned beauty
queen who is replacing the ousted Carrie Prejean as Miss California, apparently holds the same view as her predecessor, Carrie Prejean, that marriage should be between a man and a woman.

Fox News host Neil Cavuto asked Farrell, who is Christian, on his show today:

"[Prejean] went out and said that a marriage is between a man and a woman. Do you share that view?"

Farrell responded in the affirmative with a simple, "Uh huh."


"You do, OK," said Cavuto.

Farrell quickly added: "I don't think that I have the right or anybody has a right to tell somebody who they can or can't love. And I think that this is a civil rights issue. And I think that the right thing to do is let the voters decide."
Uh, which they did already.

Update: Via Hot Air, the video.



Not exactly a ringing endorsement and as noted, maybe she's not reading the cue cards right. Best point of all, and one many have wondered:
“You know, I think it’s hilarious right now that the world is turning to beauty queens for the answers for this. I think it’s an important issue and I think that it’s one that I don’t think I can win a battle. I don’t want to be any more divisive than it’s already become.”

Carrie Prejean Fired as Miss California


Well, it looks like the angry left finally got their way. I hope they're happy.

Just disgraceful.
UPDATE: We learned Carrie just received her letter of termination. She is officially out.

We've learned "biblically correct" Carrie Prejean will lose her Miss California USA crown today because she doesn't play well with others.

Sources connected with the pageant tell us even Donald Trump has now had it with Carrie, because she's violating her contract by not getting clearance to do her extracurricular stuff.

We're also told Carrie has been a no-show for appearances she was supposed to make for the pageant organization.

The firing, we're told, is strictly based on Carrie breaching her contract. It's not based on her political and moral views.
Sure.

This will just officially make her a martyr.

H/T Ace.

More here.

Update: Roundup here. While Prejean may have (gasp!) come off like a diva to some, her detractors miss the larger point. None of this would even have occurred if it weren't for the contrived outrage over her beliefs. Heck, if we want to punish divas, Barack Obama would have been dismissed a month ago.
