Meet The Royal Navy's First Woman Warship Commander
Kathy Griffin Quizzes 'Bachelorette' Emily Maynard
Miss North Carolina may have won the Miss USA competition, but Miss California took top honors as Most Likely to Get Her Ass Kicked on the Way to the Parking Lot. When out-and-proud blogger and guest judge Perez Hilton asked Carrie Prejean what she thought of legalizing gay marriage, the 21-year-old Miss California word-horked about "opposite marriage" (huhhh?) and rambled, "In my family I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there but that's how I was raised and that's how I think that it should be between a man and a woman."
In a video response, a typically restrained Perez called Prejean a "dumb b----" and ranted that she lost not because of her answer, but because of her inability to answer diplomatically.
We hate to say it, but we (ugh) agree with Perez on this one. Maybe somebody should call Carrie and tell her that you're not supposed to swallow the Crest White Strips.
Tell us: Do you think Perez had a point? Or was Carrie right to be honest?

The comments here are missing the central point. Miss USA is supposed to represent ALL of the USA not just the "christian, heterosexual, white" population. Miss California's opinions should be much more center than the answer she gave. Obviously she doesn't care about a very large population of Jews, Muslims, Agnostic/Athiest, Gay/Straight people that support same sex marriage, etc. These questions are designed to be tricky to see how the contestant handles them - ideally in a diplomatic manner. Miss California is obviously not able to be diplomatic and therefore not qualified to be Miss USA. By the way, if she is such a "christian" why the hell did her dresses and swim suit look like they belonged on a street walker at Hollywood and Vine?

Mr? Hilton has forever tarnished, and quite possibly destroyed the Miss USA pageant. Where's the tolereance? I for one have no problem with gay marriage, but I sure wish he would ask me, in a public forum, what I think of him.

She gave her honest opinion unlike a politician who dances around and sidesteps an answer to a politically charged answer. For this she should be applauded and not penalized.
My question here is how did they allow a queer to become a judge? Perez with him calling Carrie a dumb bitch? He should be sued! If anyone is a dumb bitch it is he! Perez needs to realize the majority of America does not condone this deviant behavior. Men having sex with each other! The Miss USA pageant is going down the drain!
Myself being a Christian will never watch this pageant again or support sponsers of the USA pageant. The majority of America feels the same way as I do. Both of these contestants were beautiful but Carrie gave her honest answer which she knew before hand would most likley kill her chance for the title. For this alone she should have been crowned the winner!

If Perez wanted to be so politically correct then he should also have asked the Black Contestants if they thought it was racist to have a Black Miss USA with no white contestants and why they(Black Girls) were allowed to participate in the Miss USA Pageant..Shouldn't there also be a White Miss USA?
The question about Gay Marriage should never have been asked..This was just another perverted a$$hole trying to grandstand for Gay Marriage which the majority of America is against.

She gave her opinion which happens to be bible based. We all know the saying "God created Adam & Eve".....not "Adam & Steve".
God gave us free will.....hopefully we should act according to his standards.
if one chooses not to, that's on them.

Just because we are all not a bunch of queers, Perez is going to get on his soap box and whine. Get over it Perez. Miss California stood for what SHE believes and you should stop trying to persuade everyone to be gay like you. There should be Adam and Eve not Adam and Steve. ONE MAN, ONE WOMAN. You rock Miss California!!!!!!

ONE COMMENT WAS CORRECT: THAT QUESTION IS AS STUPID AS ASKING HER IF SHE WAS A VIRGIN AND IF NOT WHY? THE QUEEN HILTON needs to get off his throne and go back to being a man. What a poor excuse for a gay man. AND PERSONALLY, I DONT GIVE A WHALES SPIT WHOSE GAY OR NOT. oh excuse me, should I have said "Enchanted" instead of gay? am I being PC? EXCUSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE MEEEEEEEEEE
she had the right to her opinion and LOST BECAUSE OF HER HONESTY AND SHE KNOWS IT. Well as far as I'm concerned Miss Calif won for her honesty and the Queen loses for his disrespect for it. He's the kind of "ladie" that gives gay men a bad rep. Shame on you Nancy Boy

She has every right to express her opinion. You should not push your gay agenda on anyone. Who wants to respect a queer queen wanna-be like hilton anyway?

Up until last night I felt everyone was entitled to their own opinion. I felt sorry for the Gay and lesbian communities and felt they should have equal rights like the rest of us.Perez changed that for me in his handling of the answer. I was always taught if you don't want the answer don't ask the question. He acted like a spoiled brat who didn't get his way. He stole the crown from Miss Ca. He should be barred from further judging and you go girl for speaking out on your beliefs

Typical liberal tolerance. If you want to know what liberals are like, just pay attention to what they are accusing conservatives of.

Welcome to America. The land of opportunity, where everyone has an equal chance. That is, as long as they agree with the gay judge who shouldn't be there in the first place. Who does this guy think he is? To ask such a politically charged question of just one contestant, then call her a dumb bitch when she doesn't agree with him? Top honors should go to Miss Calif. for standing up for what she believes, and not lying like so many people would. It is time that the radical left stop pretending that they are the "tolerant" ones. They also need to realize that they also are NOT the majority after all.

How dare Carrie agree with the majority of voters in her state as well as every other state that has voted on gay marriage? How dare she agree with Barack Obama and John McCain on one of the few issues they agreed on in the campaign. Homosexual activists, if you don't want someone's honest opinion, don't ask. You wouldn't feel any better about yourself even if you could bully everyone into saying they agree with you. Way to go, Carrie, for a soft yet clear answer about what you believe.

The question should never have been ask. His name calling is not very diplomatic. Her answer was her honest faith and for that she should be respected. I don't think he should ever be asked to judge anything again.
