Carrie Prejean Goes Down. Literally!

Former Miss California runner-up, Carrie Prejean had her day in court yesterday, though it didn’t turn out quite the way she had hoped. The Beauty Pageant almost Queen was suing Miss California USA Pageant officials for a litany of charges including public ridicule, anxiety, depression and loss of sleep stemming from the official’s handling of her career.

Everything was going fine until the defendants started playing a extremely graphic homemade sex tape starring none other than Miss Prejean, herself.

It’s been reported that it only took about fifteen seconds of playing the tape before Prejean decided to drop her lawsuit. If all litigation could only end so quickly.

1. Apparently that video tape is very revealing.
The woman is a hypocrite and a liar. She has a problem with gay marriage, because it's just not right, but taking your clothes off at a young age and posing for suggestive photographs and making a nude film is OK. :eyes:

Thank God her 15 minutes ARE UP! She's as fake as her boobs.

11. No chance of the vid making it to youtube
If TheDirty's lawyers dubbed it as too raunchy for their website, there's no way it will ever be on youtube.

19. It's now possible to be taped doing things you don't want
your mother to know about without your knowledge. All it takes is a nanny cam that you can pick up for a song and dance online.

While I love seeing sanctimonious, hypocritical frauds taken down, I do have to ask about this one.

But yeah, it's wonderful to see her moral outrage collapse so fast.

12. So does this mean she does have to pay back the $5,200 for her breast implants?
Wasn't that the counter suit the pageant had against her?

14. Hypocritical moral beliefs--hey, anyone who can stand up for them gets grudging
admiration from me. Then they can go, well, do what Ms. Prejean did (only to herself).

a few other positions as well.

16. She should have asked the defendants: "Are you talking to me?"

Here's a woman who would not take it anymore. Listen you people. Here's a woman who would not take it anymore. Here is a woman who stood up.

34. No, but I guarantee there's a morals clause in her pageant contract somewhere.
She's suing because she didn't win--but if she didn't play by the rules she agreed to, she voided the contract. And SHE dropped the lawsuit; it wasn't dropped for her.

Doesn't matter in the least to me what kind of movie she made, just that if she signed a contract that she kept up her end of the agreement.
