Miss California ... Carrie Prejean Naked Photo Scandal
The blogosphere is ablaze with buzz about topless and semi-nude photos of controversial anti-gay marriage activist Miss California Carrie Prejean. We hear there’s a whole series of these suckers about to leak. The first photo, which appeared just a few minutes ago on TheDirty.com, shows a woman — who bares a stricking resemblance to the beauty queen — staring seductively into a camera while wearing only a pair of pink panties and using a strategically placed arm to cover her naughty bits.

Shame…

Alicia Jacobs, Entertainment Reporter at KVBC in Las Vegas, has seen all six of the photos and says some are much more revealing. Alicia believes the flicks may have been taken after Carrie’s pageant-financed breast augmentation about six weeks ago.

1. Such a typical "family values" hypocrite.
I bet we find out she's on Oxy too.

9. I'm glad someone is willing to "stoop."
She needs to be discredited, that's why. We don't need any credible spokespeople of hatred. Look at Anita Bryant. The man who pied her in the face is a hero, whether he "stooped" or not, because he made a mockery of her. This new fascist "beauty queen" should also be discredited.

15. OK fine but discredit her for what she said not because she took some topless photos (if true)
Edited on Tue May-05-09 06:43 AM by ddeclue
big deal... how many hollywood actresses have done nude scenes in this day and age.

She certainly wouldn't be the first such contestant to have appeared this way.

As I said who gives a damn about her getting nekked? I sure don't.

And what really is the difference anyways when you are talking about beauty contests where women parade around on TV in skimpy bikinis for men to gawk at? If the contest was being truly honest about it they'd all be naked anyways would they not? Of course we can't do that on network TV.

And finally who cares about beauty contests in the first place? I mean how mysogynist and anti-feminist and out of date can you get? This kind of stuff should have ended 30 years ago but somehow manages to go on year after year.

What do you really expect from contestants in the first place anyways?

These are really just the first "reality TV" shows where the contestants are exploited in exchange for money and fame (however fleeting).

In fact beauty contestant answers to interview questions (regardless of the question - think Ms. Teen South Carolina a few years back) have long been a running joke - why should you expect better from Ms. California anyways?

22. Many actresses refuse to do nude photo shoots. Maybe most.
And Miss CA announced that she was a big Christian and yet posing nude for photos is a huge no no in that 'faith' of hers. The same writer, St. Paul, who wrote the only NT words against gay people also commanded that women remain silent in the gatherings, head covered, and at all times they must have modest dress, not meant to draw attention.
The fact is that she's a liar. She herself does not follow the words of Paul, and yet she grandstands that others must do so. A fake.
And also, by the way, the rules of Miss California state that such photos are not premitted. So she broke the rules that she agreed to abide by, the rules that paid for her immodest surgical adormnents. She took the benefits, and broke the contract, broke her word.
Many others who have won 'crowns' have lost them due to such rule breaking. Specifically for posing nude. That is the way the beauty world rolls.
The rules is the rules.

31. First of all, many do give up roles for those reasons
also, many of the nude folks you see are in fact body doubles, stand ins, not the actors at all. Yep.
There are many body parts of many actors you think you have seen, but have not. Yep.
Furthermore, an acting role is not the same as a photo shoot. There are lots of people who would do various things for a dramatic porpose that would not do the same thing as themselves, for no reason but to make impactful photos. Ask the folks at Playboy if you don't belive me.

3. The girl paraded around in a tiny bikini.
That was during the official competition. Why on earth would photos of her (if that is her) in a semi-nude state be some sort of ground for losing her crown?

30. There is a difference between a bikini and being nude
which you can find out by going to a beach filled with bikinis and taking off your clothing. Are you seriously unaware of that?
Plus, rules in a competition do not have to make sense, but they must be equally applied to all contestants. She signed up to follow those rules, in order to gain from the event and title. She had many other options if the ruels did not fit her agenda. Other contestants fulfilled their end of the contract and she did not. This is not fair to the other contestants.

34. Ummm...they are not "told to parade..."
they work very hard to be allowed to do the bikini thing. It is years of focused work, and even surgical alteration. They ask to do that, they beg, lie, cheat and steal to do that. And, in order to make that bikini parade, they also agree to many rules and regulations. It is a contest. A contest that one gets in by winning many previous contests, all with virtually the same set of rules and standards. Rules that say they can not do nude stuff.

51. Vanessa lost the crown more because of the homoerotic element of the photos
If memory serves a number of the photos had her naked in suggestive poses with another woman.

That's a little more out there for a Miss America contestant than some semi-nude modeling where the exposed flesh isn't much more than what one finds during the stage competion.

I don't care for her features either, regardless of her politics. Of course she is conventionally attractive, but not my thing. Well, I'm gay anyway so there you go.

6. She isn't really an anti-gay-marriage "activist."
Edited on Tue May-05-09 01:01 AM by Occam Bandage
She was asked a question and she responded to it. Her response was offensive to me, but it was an honest response to a question. That isn't activism.

Then Perez started calling her a bitch, alluding to calling her a cunt, and other such niceties, and she went on TV to defend herself. That isn't activism either. I don't at all like her, but calling her an "activist" seems a bit off.

I think that qualifies her as an activist.

Miss Calif. in ad attacking gay marriage

WASHINGTON, April 30 (UPI) -- Miss California USA Carrie Prejean, who told a national pageant audience she opposed gay marriage, is in a new U.S. TV ad attacking gay-marriage activists.

The ad called "No Offense" was launched in Washington Thursday by the National Organization for Marriage.

14. "She Needed The Money"
It's the ends justifies the means time again. The first thing that struck me about this babe was the word "ambitious"...willing to do whatever to be a "star" (whatever that notion may be). She gladly let others pay for her implants...wanna bet she made people's lives miserable until they came through...and that she would have done other things to push for "the top".

Now let's see...which "excuse" does she use? Was it just a "publicity shoot"? Ya know...all the "others" do it. She needed the money for school or some other poor girl story. Now why does the cynic in me expect the "video" of her...ya know...one of those "hot college girls gone wild"...that was another way to reach "the top"...get noticed, feed the ego and a quick couple bucks as well. And of course, have the holier-than-thou attitude to keep up pretenses.

Methinks Ms. Prejean may be enjoying all this publicity...she's surely the "winner" of her contest as she'll be doing teevee shows and has become a right wing pin up girl. Let see how far this 15 minute ride goes...the meter is running....

36. Which makes it worse than the Vanessa Williams case
According to Wikipedia (on some things it's okay), Vanessa Williams won Miss New York the year after her nude photos were made.

Carrie Prejean got her breast augmentation after she was named Miss California USA. Somehow I suspect she knew about the morals clause in the pageant contract before she had the photos made--after the Vanessa Williams scandal I assume that's the one part of the contract they really make sure you understand.

44. It's because of original sin.

People became wanton, lustfilled creatures after the incident with the serpent. Thereafter Adam and Eve became aware of their nakedness and knew shame. When women are stripped or unclothed in the bible, it's a punishment for their harlotry, etc..

45. The same book that gives them the 'anti-gay' verses
Edited on Tue May-05-09 11:06 AM by Bluenorthwest
gives them very detailed rules for the modest dress of all, but in particular of women. Here is a prime example:

1st Timothy 1:9 "In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array"

So in my country, we have Christianity and opposite Christianity. She practices the opposite kind.

43. Some of the comments there are quite revealing...
"Ha! She is a beautiful reason for men to NOT be gay! I thought with all the hoopla surrounding this photo that we would see a “Playboy” type photo rather than the “Sears” lingere version. Get real, you left-wing liberal Christian haters! Barbi-dolls are more exposed than this!"

Wow! Miss Prejean can cure the gay? I wonder if Jesus and the women who followed him ever did that...

It's funny how there's no mention of it in the New Testament. You'd think if Saint Paul had known of this kind of miracle he wouldn't have been so down on Christian women of immodest appearance. Or maybe he just didn't appreciate how all the cute gay guys suddenly went straight whenever a good Christian woman showed them her breasts.

I'm going to hell because I'm suddenly imagining St. Paul wishing he had his own miracle breasts. It's good to be queen. Or maybe she did...
