Donald to Carrie Prejean: You’re Fired
June 10th, 2009
It’s an age-old story: If you don’t do the job you’re hired to do, you’re out, even if you’re a beauty queen. Donald Trump released a statement today saying he fired Miss California USA, Carrie Prejean, after she failed to honor her commitments to that post.
Carrie was wrapped up in a bit of controversy after the Miss USA pageant, when she answered contest judge Perez Hilton’s question abou gay marriage by voicing her opinion that marriage should only be for "opposite" couples, meaning heterosexual. However she’s lost her post because she didn’t fulfill the terms of her contract, not because of her views.
First runner-up to Carrie, Tami Farrell, will take over the duties of Miss California from here on out.
Miss California: It’s Not About Perez
May 13th, 2009
Although Miss California, Carrie Prejean, and blogger Perez Hilton have been sparring publicly since he asked her about gay marriage during the Miss USA pageant, the beauty queen says she’s forgiven the gossiper for saying bad things about her.
“I don’t appreciate the things he said about me," she told FOX & Friends this morning. However, she insists fighting with Perez isn’t important. "This isn’t about him, I want to show that I love him regardless. It’s the kind of love that I want back and the respect that I want back as well."
Donald Trump, director of the pageant, also weighed in on the situation and his decision to let Carrie keep her crown.
“Look at the controversy that’s been caused and ultimately this controversy has been fantastic for the pageant which is doing really well and just got a three-year extension, by the way, on network television," says the ultimate businessman. "And, Carrie has also done, whether we like it or not, from Perez, Carrie has been the biggest beneficiary. She’s fantastic and people now get to see how fantastic she is. I happen to like Perez Hilton.”
Carrie made the rounds at FOX, speaking with Sean Hannity last night as well. She revealed her dream to be a model, specifically for Victoria’s Secret.
"Whether it’s the pink line which is a less more revealing or, you know, to be a Victoria’s Secret Angel. I think that would be amazing," she revealed.
How about Playboy?
"Absolutely not," she affirmed. "And I even got a ridiculous offer by Vivid Entertainment to do a $1 million pornographic film which I think is ridiculous."

Disgraced Miss Nevada Irate at Trump Over Miss California
May 12th, 2009
In the wake of Donald Trump’s decision to not take away Miss California USA Carrie Prejean’s title after semi-nude photos of her showed up online, former Miss Nevada USA Katie Rees, who was stripped of her title in 2006 following a similar incident, is… well, let’s just say she isn’t happy.
“An accurate word to describe me is irate,” the 24-year-old beauty queen tells Extra. “If you’re semi-nude, you’re semi-nude and it says so in the contract. And [Prejean] broke the contact… She should’ve had her crown taken away just like mine… For her crown not to be taken away is absolutely outrageous.”
Katie also sees a very important difference between her situation—where personal photos of her behaving badly were made public—and Carrie’s.
“The fact is Carrie purposely posed nude for these pictures. I did not," she explains. "I was a teenager who accidentally was out having a good time with her girlfriends and was unguarded… I just wonder if Mr. Trump knows what he put me through. What I’ve gone through these past two years. The strong woman that I’ve had to become to fight for myself.“
And rather than just cry over spilled milk, Katie says, "I am speaking with my lawyer right now.”
Check out the full interview when it airs Wednesday night on Extra.
