Miss California USA honcho: Prejean may have violated contract by posing "partially nude" at 17

Carrie Prejean -- I Was Only 17!

Posted May 5th 2009 5:17PM by TMZ Staff



So someone sent us pictures two days ago of Carrie Prejean -- showing the Miss California/Miss USA runner-up modeling topless, partially covering her breasts with her hands and wearing panties. So, we ask, What would Jesus think?

We contacted Carrie's rep, who gave us this statement yesterday: "This was a photo that was taken several years ago, when Carrie first started modeling. In her naivete, an agent convinced her to pose for this photo to submit to a lingerie company, claiming they could make her the next Victoria's Secret model. She has since learned what a lie that was, and what a mistake it was to have the photo taken."

A short time later, we got a second statement: "Is there any allowance for the fact that she was a minor when the photo was taken, that would allow you not to post? She was only 17."

We had our doubts ... especially when comparing the photos to photos of Carrie at the Miss California Teen USA pageant in 2004, a few months before her 18th birthday. But we just got a handwritten statement from Carrie herself, and she's towing the line: "The photo in question was taken when I was a minor, several months before the 2005 pageant. The photo was not meant for disclosure to the general public."

A honcho at Miss California USA told us Carrie may have violated her contract, because she represented several times in writing that she never posed nude or partially nude for any photo. We're here to tell you ... that's not true.

We haven't posted the pics and won't unless we know she was over 18.

1. Wow - DUers really care a lot about this kinda shit.

2. Care? No. Amused? Yes.

7. yeah, but she is no longer Miss CA. She has become a polarizing political figure...

...solely for the purpose of furthering her own career, just like joe the plumber.

This woman is another anita bryant. Bryant had a heavy hand in turning back the clock on gay rights in this country. Is it really that much of a surprise that we can barely remember who actually did win Miss USA, but we all know who Carrie Prejean is?

I don't give a DAMN if she comes off like a barbie doll. she's a dangerous mouthpiece of the idealogical right. If she is going to exploit her "wholesome sexuality" to spread fear, lies and hatred, then, hell yeah! if at all possible, use her previous unwholesomeness to take her down.

8. Fascinating.

9. oh , I get it. you're spock now.

:eyes:

right. you think you're cool enough to dismiss my statement with a chin rub.

3. as much as I think she's a lunar tick, I think the idea that the picture will take her down

but not her other stuff just makes me shake my head.

for one thing, I don't get the whole beauty contestant/professional virgin thing anyhow. Why advertise virginity unless you intend to sell it? (line from a very old movie)

4. Speaking of mss california

5. but swimsuit competition is fine

Yeah, bikinis aren't partially nude or anything.

I wouldn't mind seeing the idiot stripped (you should pardon the term) of her 'title', but the standards are getting kinda blurry. Partially nude? Really? That's a deal breaker for pageants that encourage, if not demand, skimpy swim-wear that would never hold up to water? :rofl:

6. She's flashing the sign of the Devil in that pic!!!!!!1!!1
