From an AP story about some sort of lame-o Donald Trump controversy:
Miss California USA can retain her crown after questions arose about semi-nude photographs taken of her as a teenager…
”We’ve reviewed the pictures carefully,” Trump said at a packed news conference at Trump Plaza in New York City.
The other half of this story is much more interesting. One of the celebrity judges says Miss California would have won the competition if not for her stance on same-sex marriage:
Trump also defended the answer Prejean gave at the April 19 Miss USA pageant. She was asked her view of marriage by blogger Perez Hilton. Prejean said she believes marriage is between a man and a woman.
”It’s the same answer the president of the United States gave,” Trump said. ”It’s the same answer many people gave. She gave an honorable answer. She gave an answer from her heart, and I think for that she has to be commended.”
