Judge Calls Miss California 'Dumb Bitch' For Same-Sex Marriage Answer
"She gave the worst answer in pageant history," says Hiton. "She got booed. I think that was the first time in Miss USA ever that a contestant has been booed. She lost not because she doesn't believe in gay marriage. Miss California lost because she is a dumb bitch." "This is how a person with half a brain answers the question I posed her, which is Vermont recently legalized same-sex marriages, do you think other states should follow suit? Why or why not?" "Well, if I was Miss California with half a brain, I would have said: 'That's a great question. That's a very hot topic in our country right now and I think that is a question that each state should decide for themselves because that's how our forefathers designed our government. The states rule themselves, and there are certain laws which are federal." "She could have said something along those lines, but she didn't. She gave an awful, awful answer which alienated so many people and Miss California, Miss USA, she doesn't alienate, she unites, she inspires. I am so disappointed in Miss California in representing my country, not because she doesn't inspire gay marriage but because she doesn't unite." "I could not believe she became first runner-up. If that girl would have won Miss USA, I would have gone up on stage, snatched that tiara off her head and run out the door. Then I would have probably been arrested, but you know what? So be it." However, Carrie Prejean isn't rolling over. In an interview Monday, Prejean admitted it may have cost her the title but she wouldn't have changed her answer: "It did cost me my crown. I wouldn't have had it any other way. I said what I feel. I stated an opinion that was true to myself and that's all I can do." "It is a very touchy subject and he is a homosexual and I see where he was coming from and I see the audience would've wanted me to be more politically correct. But I was raised in a way that you can never compromise your beliefs and your opinions for anything." Here's how Miss California answered the question at Sunday's pageant: "I think it's great Americans are able to choose one or the other. We live in a land that you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage. And you know what in my country, and in my family, I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman". She lost out to Miss North Carolina, Kristen Dalton.
Gay judge Perez Hilton says Miss California Carrie Prejean is a 'dumb bitch' for answering his same-sex marriage question the way she did, no matter what she believes in.
