Carrie Prejean's father, Will, believes his daughter will not be stripped of her title as Miss California in wake of the growing scandal surrounding the semi-nude and topless photos she posed for during her teenage years.
Will Prejean told Radar Online that he was "extremely excited" about a news conference being held Tuesday by Donald Trump, owner of Miss USA.
If he does know something about what Trump will say, he would not reveal what it is, only that it was "confidential" and would be announced in due time.
The father of the embattled, unintelligent beauty queen also said he has not seen the Carrie Prejean nude shots, and "does not care" if they exist.
Regarding the other criticism directed at Carrie - for her adamant stance against gay marriage, Will Prejean said his children were brought up to believe that marriage is between a man and a woman, and accused the other side of intolerance.
In a separate interview with E! News, Carrie's father noted that none other than Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has been personally in touch with his lightning-rod spawn: "She called her directly to offer support," he said.
Carrie Prejean has the support of Sarah Palin ... and of gays and lesbians, according to her father, Will. No word on what rock Will is currently residing under.
While he did not reveal the exact words of wisdom Palin offered, he clarified that the call came prior to Carrie lying about the racy photos that surfaced.
In addition to Sarah Palin, the proud father also claims that Carrie Prejean had been receiving well-wishes from an even more unbelievable source.
"The gay and lesbian community has been supportive of Carrie," he lied said, despite every shred of evidence to the contrary. "It's been overwhelming."
"Everyone has been coming up to Carrie and saying, 'We may not agree with you, but we respect you for what you say.' And they're very emphatic."
The elder Prejean also spoke out about explosive reports involving his nasty divorce with Carrie's mother and claims that he said Carrie's stepdad was gay because he had a mustache. Will denies this and says his family is very close.
He also addressed rumors that his ex-wife is now seeing a woman. Asked about this, Will, in a strange response said: "No... but she loves to play bingo." There you have it, folks. Consider that issue cleared up.
Should Carrie Prejean lose her crown?

Crazy Dad? I don't see anything that he said that was crazy. I see far more craziness coming from those attacking Carrie Prejean. BTW, what rock are you currently residing under?

bottom line, she broke the rules AND lied about it. Tami Farrell seems more genuinue and worthy of the crown, assuming she doesn't have a similar scandal waiting to pop up, which would not surprise me at this point.
this has nothing to do with gay marriage, btw, she broke the rules and that is that. at this point it is ireelevant, and i am not stating my view on that issue one way or the other

If you consider those nude photo's, and she was a minor at the time, then someone should be prosecuted for showing them in public. Truth is they are not nude any more than poses I've seen on television in commercials for hand soaps and other beauty produces. To quote Jerry Sienfeld THIRTY years ago... "it's not sex until the nipple makes it appearance". This type of attack is really atrocious coming from the directors of a beauty pageant in La La land were a "G" string is considered formal wear. There is enough material in her underwear to make 3 of those pageant string bikinis.
What a vile low life campaign this is. The whole religious thing is a distraction just like the people who are trying their best to drop the race card in there somewhere. They are the nuclear weapons of the gay agenda. I'm a liberal but this left wing extremism is really inexcusable. Another ism like terrorism!! I had no opinion on gay marriage before this but what an eye open in the manipulative fascist methods.
What phase are we in now Mario (Hilton), Lewis, Moakler, .... lets trash her family.

"I did not have sexual relations with that woman" A President didn't lose his job when he lied.

Who. Fucking. Cares? Everyone knows that the whole beauty queen thing is a fucking joke. NOBODY takes them seriously, their job is to smile and look pretty (and be extra tan). ANd now one of them has expressed an opinion and the world doesnt know up from down. Give me a break. This is NOT news worthy. How about the economy, bringing our soldiers home, Education, Jobs....you know, REAL issues. This world would be better off without beauty queens, UGH!!!!!!!

I really don't understand how the alleged nude photos have anything to do with her stance on gay marriage. They are two completely different issues. She should not be stripped of her title because she does not support the gay and lesbian community. If the nude photos are real, and she knowingly lied about them when competing in the Miss CA & Miss USA pageants then yes, her title should be taken away. But neither issue should influence the other.
In regards to what her dad said, I didn't read the full interview, but it seems as though you cleverly took bits and pieces of an interview, put them together in such a way that they negatively reflect upon the Prejean family, and then proceeded to add bits of negative comments here and there to influence the readers' opinion. I understand that this isn't an unbiased news site, but please, maybe you could at least try to be discreet?
And if you did present the information accurately: maybe the random bingo comment was a little weird - but is it seriously that big of a deal? Is that really the context in which he responded to the question? And I don't find it that hard to believe that some gays & lesbians would support Prejean's ability to voice her opinion to the public.

This is from a discussion on the "Miss USA" website
If the Miss USA pageant becomes seen as the gay pageant, run by gay activists, that choose gay men to judge female beauty (or maybe just how much they like their answers) -- and that design questions to promote a gay, aggressive, an unpopular political agenda -- and that uses beauty queens for the No on 8 campaign, the Miss USA pageant is finished.
The public won't understand that Miss California was fired for photo(s) that show less than the bikinis they wear in the pageant -- by a Playboy bunny!
They will understand she was fired for expressing her opinion honestly and straightforwardly.
The directors spoke out against Miss Prejean's answer. We *know* who asked Carrie Jean for *her* opinion, and *she* was expected to give it. Were the *directors* expected to give their *critique* of her opinion? Disclosing her boob job was hitting below the belt as were attacks on her family. Most would prefer that to be kept private. Miss USA directors destroy contestants?
Every article will point out that she will have been fired by a Playboy bunny and gay activist. Many will imply that she was fired for giving an honest answer that intolerant gay activists hated.
You can line up the facts however you want. The reporters will line them up to sell their product.
(Try to say you fired her for lying. Will everyone that's never lied please raise their hands?)
Most readers share will Miss Prejean's opinion. Most of your potential viewers will too.
Good luck with the Nielsen ratings after that.
I can see the headlines after that: Miss USA Pageant: You're Fired.
I'm sure the reporters will remember how Trump likes controvery to promote Miss USA pageants. Keep stretching this one out. We'll see how that works out for you.
Will the public approve of beautiful, 21-year-old Carrie Prejean's vilification, one that the directors took part in? *This* controvery one is casting a pall over the pageant. Why have judges? Why not just let the directors choose the winner, if that's what they're going to do anyway?

So where were you folks when Tara Connor was photographed engaging in same sex relations with another woman at a bar?
I think it's very hypocritical that people want to call for Carrie's crown, but they let Tara stay Miss USA even after she admitted violating her contract by being an alcoholic, cocaine addict, prescription drug abuser and photographed in various states of dress acting very unprofessionally in a bar? And remember how she spent 2 months in rehab instead of spending those 2 months touring as Miss USA?
Sometimes I think people forget what the definition of hypocrite is.
