The following entry is not from on The NewsEdge but follow-up to topics from past shows. Hence, Off the Edge. The comments are mine. Blame me….
Donald Trump held an expected press conferenc concerning the status of Miss California, Carrie Prejean. If you have been following the story on Charlotte’s Fox Newsedge, you understand the controversy that started during the Miss USA pageant. New semi-nude, more revealing pictures have been released in the last couple of days adding to the complexity.
The Donald has said Prejean will get to keep her title as Miss California and Miss USA runner-up. He explained that their exists racy photos but this is the 21st century. Additionally the problem with Prejean not responding to the Miss California officials was a “miscommunication” and has since been resolved.
Carrie herself spoke in a sometimes emotional speech. Her explanation for the sem-nude pictures was that the first was taken by a friend when she was 17. The other photos were taken by a photographer for a photoshoot but any nudity was caused by very windy conditions and those pictures should have never been released. If you look at the pictures (I have the rest of the pictures below) you will notice her hair barely moves which is NOT indicative of windy conditions. She also mentioned that these pictures were photoshopped so some of her speech is confusing. She also to confuse thinghs further, hinted that these were pictures taken between shots but she looks like she is in a pose for each. She also when asked about disclosing about the pictures before the pageant when she signed the contract seemed to complaign the contract was twelve pages long.
Carrie stated she is not working for the National Organization for Marriage. She said she would forgive everyone who spoke against her include Perez Hilton as her faith dictates. She will continue her duties and public appearances as Miss California.
Perez Hilton was never refferred to by name but by Judge #8. Mr. Trump stated Judge #8 scored Prejean very low although no specifics were given. From what had been released previously it would have not affected Prejean’s results in the pageant.
Watch Fox Charlotte Newsedge with Morgan Fogarty & Brotha’ Fred tonight where I am sure they wil have additional coverage.
