Donald Trump is holding a Tuesday morning press conference to announce the fate of Miss California. Update: SHE KEEPS THE CROWN

Her crown was put in jeopardy as she may have lied by signing a contract stating she had never posed nude or semi-nude.

Trump owns the Miss USA pageant.

There once was a gal named Prejean
Who ran afoul of the Pageant Machine
She smiled sweetly at Trump
Who was such a chump
That he declared her pics clean

She is there for her T & A and the fact that she has no qualms about flaunting them in a teensy bikini in front of the whole world. She is not there because of her brain so who cares what she thinks.

There was no mention in regards to her contractual obligations as Miss California, and whether she breached contract becoming a spokeswoman for "Opposite Sex Marriage". I believe she has a right to her own opinion and that is one of the great things about America. At the same time though it is ridiculous to believe that the California pageant directors were lulled by her in a short conversation in Trump's office. Trump is a notorious media drama queen and adores all the attention he gets from media for doing things like this. Needless to say, if I was under breach of contract with Donald Trump, as a male I would be kaput. I'm glad she gets another chance to be another loud anti-gay voice on TV. There always seems to be such a shortage. Oh and thanks Donald for subsidizing Obama and Clinton's views on same sex marriage to coincide with the brilliant Miss California's answer which she struggled to spit out.

Poor Donald, He's now going to have to go back and define what semi-nude means in his contract..­.because somepeople (persumably conservatives) would have thought it a bit stricter than he applied it.

Shocker - the Donald spares another blond beauty queen!

Ok, so Miss California managed to hold on to her precious crown - clothes or no clothes, gay marriage or "opposite" marriage. Hmmm, but I think her greatest challenge of all still awaits her.

Miss California, now that you have totally pissed off the entire global gay population, I wish you luck in your quest to find another hair stylist, make-up artist, clothing/shoe designer, and stylist who will want to work with or on you.

Beauty Queen Rule #1 – NEVER bite the hands that keep you looking so unrealistically beautiful.

We love to protect the white and young. There are soooooo many things in this nation that really does not become an important issue until it affects that demographic. .if this were an African American young women with the same pictures would the right have the same reaction to protect her

If she had been black and made the same statements, yeah, I think those churches would still have jumped to her defense - and to top it off, they'd be playing the race card and declaring that she was being persecuted because she was black as well.

Hopefully, this is one more nail in the coffin of beauty pageants, which represent the very worst of America's misogynistic sub-culture. Legalize and regulate prostitution; leave the "scholarship" programs to the scholars..­.and just grow-up. The educated world is laughing at us, and not without cause.

The same people who were outraged by the split second peep at Janet Jackson’s goodies and demanded action are the ones defending this hypocrite for showing so much more.

Well Janet is not a ''God fearing christian'­'....so I guess she doesn't matter .


I think christians are fully aware of their hypocracy.­...they just choose to ignore it . It would be kinda hard to be a good christian if they didn't ignore it !

I saw the latest photos. The wind had nothing to do with what was revealed. CBS was fined $550,000 for Janet Jackson's split second wardrobe malfunction and Miss California keeps her title for showing a lot more. Lies and hypocrisy.

First, unfortunately, there are some issues wherein "agreeing to disagree" is a problem. What would have happened to my marriage - to a man of a different race - if we, in this country, had "agreed to disagree" about interracial marriage and just simply kept the status quo anti-miscegenation laws in place. Some of the same groups thumped their Bibles in opposition to interracial marriage just a few decades ago and shouting again about values and using the Bible to excuse their intolerance.

Second, Ms. Prejean does have the right to her opinion - but so do those who disagree with her. They aren't infringing upon or denying her freedom to speak her mind. They are simply exercising their right to speak their opinion in response.

Finally, She wants people to have compassion, respect and tolerance for her opinion but is not willing to practice this where gay marriage is concerned. She doesn't have to agree with it - but why work to ensure that people are denied that right. She claims to recognize and respect diversity - but wants the same restrictions put on gay marriage that were once put on interracial marriage.

Does she even realize that the most of speech she gave is applicable to the pro-gay marriage argument??

Things to teach our next generation. Success should easily come regardless of lying. Lying and cheating is ok, as long as you're beautiful.

why is this thing even an issue? What's the importance of her "job"? How does she go out and do whatever it is she's supposed to do having mired in this controversy.

She will always be remembered as the girl who didn't disclose her previous modeling experiences to the pageant board...

She is suppose to be a role-model for the youth, isn't that why they're giving her a scholorship in the first place, isn't that the point of this beauty contest??

Nah, the point of this beauty contest is to parade nearly nude young women in high heels on a stage.

and make Donald even richer. why do you think he wanted her to keep the crown? so people will keep on talking and the next pageant will be watch by more people. it's all about Donald's money, nothing to do with principles and abiding by the terms of a contract, nothing to do with fairness, nothing to do with real beauty, after all his organization paid for the fake boobs. those fake boobs are investment for Donald and he knows he's going to make more money for as long as this woman and her controversy continue to hug the news.
