#3142706 Pictured: Carrie Prejean and Donald Trump on May 12, 2009 following the press conference in which Donald Trump announced Prejean would retain her crown despite racy photos being released and controversy concerning her stance on gay marriage.
As of this afternoon, Donald Trump officially declared that Carrie Prejean was officially “fired” and stripped of her crown as Miss California. Donald released a statement explaining his actions; ìI told Carrie she needed to get back to work and honor her contract with the Miss California USA Organization and I gave her the opportunity to do so. Unfortunately it just doesnÃt look like it is going to happen and I offered Keith [Lewis] my full support in making this decision. Carrie is a beautiful young woman and I wish her well as she pursues her other interests.î He went on to admit that Miss Prejean had pulled the wool over his eyes so to speak when it came to her behavior toward those who work for the pageant in saying, “To me she was the sweetest thing. Everyone else ó she treated like shit.”
