Bio
Carrie Prejean was a contestant in the Miss USA pageant in 2009.
Representing California, she finished in the top five. However, she created quite a stir when she answered a question from judge Perez Hilton.
Prejean said she was raised to believe that marriage is between a man and a woman. The crowd actually booed as a result, while Hilton frowned. He later called her a "dumb bitch," but apologized for that remark.
Prejean is entitled to her (biased) opinion, but she should have known it would earn her negative points with Perez.
In June 2009, Prejean was fired as Miss California because she continually violated her contract. She then sued pageant officials for religious discrimination.
It was then revealed that Carrie made a sex tape and she backed off her lawsuit. God bless Prejean. She's the best/worst.
UPDATE: Prejean got engaged to Kyle Boller, a former NFL quarterback, in early 2010. We wish them the best.

Quotes
We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage ... I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there.

Carrie, You done good. You said the right thing about gays. They have no business even thinking about marriage. Gays are a disgrace. God may love them, but not their actions. I know God loves you for the words you spoke. If I were from California, I'd be proud that you said what you did, and I would have to bet that your parents are even prouder. I know you must feel sad at not having won the pageant, but God put you down in the good book that night. God Bless, Lew

Her answer was incoherent..... Whether one marries the same sex or the opposite sex isn't a choice. Being gay isn't a choice, and therefore, one DESIRES to love and marry the same gender. Straight marriage is a right and same sex marriage is not. That's the issue. That was the question. She answered it incoherently and that's why she lost.

For the record, I am in favor of gay marriage.
However, I think it is OUTRAGEOUS that we are now asking political and religious questions at beauty pageants.
Who the hell appointed Perez Hilton GRAND GAY INQUISITOR GENERAL?
Now that we can target Christians with impunity, What are we going to do next?
Go after jews? Muslims? Anybody else gay people don't like?
Perez Hilton is a fat jerk!

Carrie, you are my miss universe, you are my queen and i love you.

Miss Cali is cuter that Miss NC. Her answer could have been more smooth, but she has guts. Whether you believe or not she stuck to her convicitons and that is something that most people run from.
I will stick with intestinal fortitude anyday.
OBTW, social political question are great for pageants otherwise how do you know they have an IQ.

Carrie , you did a great job of defining marriage and you have your opinion which is aligned with the majority of the people of our great country . "God Bless America"

Carrie, thank you. You speak for all of your fellow Christians who don't have the stage to do so. I once lost a job because I told a gay young man that I didn't want to hear about his sex life. I was the bad guy. As Christians we have to worry about offending others who don't give a crap if they offend us. Thank you.

Wow so it's okay for Perez Hilton to call her a dumb bitch, but it's not okay for her to tell her opinion on gay marriage? Personally I'm for gay and lesbian rights, but seriously if that's what the girl believes then it's within her first amendment rights to say so. She doesn't deserve to be booed on stage, it's not like she was trying to attack the gay and lesbian community. jeez.

I do not see where it was a question of religion. Carrie was being honest with herself. She never said anything about gays. She just said that she believed MARRIAGE was between a man and a woman. She has integrity in the way she said it.. Perez Hilton is a man with no integrity. It is easy to see this in the he responded. He has disrespected every gay and lesbian out there. He has shown that they do not have integrity. I respect carrie as an American for she gave her opinion and held her head high. She did it with respect, dignity, and honesty. Why don't we say the truth... that this man is not worth a ..... I want someone to stand up for what they believe in...isn't that what we want an AMERICAN to stand for... We don't want it to be someone that does not feel....is not honest.... as American we should cherish that we have such a honest..good person reperesenting us... I feel we have allowed the integrity of the pageant be destroyed by a man with no honor....how sad
the issue is the integrity of the judge in the way he responsded... the pageant should have discredit him and proetected the integrity of the pageant and this honest lady... not a question on rather she won or lost.... but integrity...not an issue of religion... I never heard her say because god said...
