Miss California trumps pageant http://www.valentinovip.com/ controversy
Miss California Carrie Prejean has kept her crown, standing by her opposition to gay marriage and defending posing for topless photos.
Prejean, Valentino Pumps Sale 21, made headlines last month at the Miss USA pageant when she expressed her opinion on gay marriage; she claimed her answer - that marriage should be between a man and a woman - cost her the Miss USA crown.
After the pageant, she met with the National Organisation for Marriage and spoke at an event for the group which opposes same-sex marriage. Topless photos emerged of her and it was revealed the beauty pageant Valentino Ballerinas helped pay for her breast implants.
Miss USA Valentino Slingbacks pageant owner Donald Trump praised Prejean for her beauty and standing by her opinion, and he judged the topless photos as acceptable for her to continue her reign.
"If her beauty wasn't so great no one really would have cared," he said at a news conference.
Prejean's Miss California title was not in doubt because of her opposition to same-sex marriage, but because she was operating independently of pageant organisers and had failed to disclose her topless photos. Prejean said the photos were taken for modelling agency applications, not for publication.
The question about gay marriage was posed by Miss USA judge and celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton, who then railed against Prejean's answer in his blog.
"I exercised my freedom of speech and I was punished for doing so," an emotional Prejean said at a news conference.
"This should not happen in America. It undermines the http://www.valentinovip.com/valentino-sneakers-c-71/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Valentino Sneakers Sale constitutional rights for which my grandfather fought for [in World War II].
"I believe no one should be silenced if they are speaking from their heart. I am a model. I am a Christian," she said, adding that she forgave everyone Valentino Rockstud Flats who had attacked her for her anti-gay marriage opinions.
