Carrie Prejean Sueing the Miss California Organization

It seems that Carrie Prejean isn't going quitely. Prejean was fired from being Miss California earlier this summer by Donald Trump. According to sources, Carrie is filling a lawsuit against the Miss California organization and also against the California pageant organizers Keith Lewis and Shanna Moakler. Donald Trump is not mentioned in the suit.

Prejean filed claims alleging public disclosure of private facts, libel, slander, religious discrimination, negligent infliction of emotional distress, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Prejean's complaint alleges "conspiracy" and "wrongful conduct" agaist her by Moakler and Lewis. Even Perez Hilton is mentioned in the suit. Lawyer for the pageant organizatio and Prejean's lawyers are in the process right now of trying to settle this out of court. Seems like Prejean wasn't content with her 15 minutes of fame and wanted 15 more.

Carrie Prejean is No longer Miss California

After all the controversy surrounding her title of Miss California, Carrie Prejean has actually lost her crown. She was originally told by Donald Trump that she could keep her crown, but apparently she failed to uphold her contract with K2 Productions. Carrie skipped multiple pageant appearances and that is what cost her the crown. "This was a business decision, based solely on contract violations,"Keith Lewis, executive director of K2 Productions said.

What did Donald Trump have to say about this after supporting her through all the controversy? "I told Carrie she needed to get back to work and honor her contract with the Miss California Organization and I gave her the opportunity to do so," Trump said. "Unfortunately it just doesn’t look like it is going to happen and I offered Keith my full support in making this decision."

Tami Farrell will now hold the title of Miss California USA and Carrie plans to write a book.

Let's Forget About Miss California: Hello, Miss North Carolina!

Enough is enough. We are so sick of hearing about Miss California and her drama. We have decided that here at Pop Culture Madness, we're not going to report on the ridiculous controversy that this girl has caused with her semi-nude pictures and anti-gay marriage group affiliation. We're so sick of hearing about her and well, her lies. Trust us, she KNEW a photographer was taking those pictures of her, she was looking RIGHT AT THE CAMERA.

Let's get to know THE REAL MISS USA. Did you even know that Miss North Carolina was actually crowned Miss USA 2009? She's the real winner in all this - she beat out 50 other beauty queens in the live pageant televised from Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Kristen Dalton is 21 years old and aspires to be a motivational speaker, meet Miss North Carolina!

Check out an interview held with Miss North Carolina below, we want your thoughts. Does she seem more qualified and composed to hold the crown? I feel like the poor thing hasn't gotten an ounce of recognition over her victory because of the media attention surrounding Miss California.

What Do You Think About Miss California?

It all started when gossip blogger Perez Hilton was chosen to ask Miss California Carrie Prejean a question, and proceeded to inquire about her views on same-sex marriage. She answered that it was "great" that the option is available in some states, but that "in my country and in my family, I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman -- no offense to anyone out there." In her country? Don't we all live in The United States?





Hilton has proceeded to go on a media blitz attacking her and she's all over the Internet. Gay rights activist groups have spoken out against her as well. NOTE: Miss California didn't win the competition. Miss North Carolina actually won the crown! Did you know that? Poor gal, the media isn't bothering to really discuss her!

The beauty queen also went on Billy Bush's radio show on Monday, saying she believes her comment on gay marriage "cost me my crown," but she "wouldn't have had it any other way. I said what I feel."

What are your thoughts on this controversy? It seems people are split about her answer depending on their stance about the issue of gay marriage. Miss California was both booed and cheered for her answer.
