Another American Idol
Okay, this post has nothing to do with the show American Idol but she would be qualified, in some regard. This post is due to the new nude pictures found of the winner of the Miss California Pageant. You may remember this woman as the Miss America contestant who, in response to Perez Hilton's question, said that gay marriage should not be legalized. Pictures have been found of the California winner topless, posing with her back to the camera while covering her chest, looking back and smiling. These pictures caused an uproar because it is in the contract that the Miss pageant contestants are not allowed to partake in or have partaken in any nude modeling. Miss California's response to these pictures was that they were taken for modeling shots when she was a teenager and that she didn't understand what was going on. She tried to explain that she was very young and that she didn't know that this was wrong. The pictures, in fact, do not show her breasts or her butt, just her open back. I do not feel that Miss California should be revoked of her title just because of these pictures, as they are not, in my opinion, actual nude modeling pictures. I can understand how they might be up for question, but having a bare back is not nudity, and not inappropriate.

While I think Miss California Carrie Prejean is an absolute moron I do agree with you about the pictures not being enough to revoke her title. The only reason that this is an issue is because of the attention she's been receiving lately due to her idiot reply to the gay-marriage answer ( i mean i am pro gay marriage , and i also respect those who aren't--but seriously Carrie, no matter what you believe- it's all about politics, remember that little thing called tact??) Anyhow, I think that these pictures wouldn't even be a news blip let alone a controversy if she wasn't in the middle of this gay marriage issue! I don't like this woman at all and originally I thought, ya know what take that ignoramus' crown and title for those pictures. But Lena you did make a good point that these pictures really don't seem to be in true violation of the contract as they are not really showing anything too graphic and therefore I think that she should be able to keep her title. I mean, she already lost respect of half the nation, at least let her keep her crown and sash.
