Carrie Prejean, Miss California, Cancels Larry King Appearance

Questions are swirling about why Miss California Carrie Prejean canceled her appearance on Thursday night's "Larry King Live."

CNN reps declined comment to Huffington Post on Prejean's cancellation. King, at the top of his show, announced that Prejean had canceled.

"Late this afternoon, she canceled her appearance," said King without providing further explanation.

Paula Shugart, the president of the Miss Universe Organization, told King that Prejean was simply exhausted from traveling too much in recent days.

TMZ.com is reporting that Prejean was too busy partying and celebrating her 22nd birthday on Wednesday night:

Carrie celebrated her 22nd birthday in Atlanta last night. She was scheduled to do Larry's show tonight in L.A., but her people called hours ago and said Carrie had a birthday party last night and she was really tired and took a flight that put the airhead in the air at the time Larry airs.

Prejean is scheduled to be a one-day guest host on "Fox & Friends" on May 27, reports US News & World Report.

Way to go Carrie.......

Carrie has proven just how intelligent she is. Larry's was most certainly planning a little trap for Carrie and I'm glad she waited until the last minute to deny him the pleasure.



Maybe it's a little payback for Larry's total whitewash of Perez Hilton when he appeared on Larry's show. King never once mention Hilton's vile misogynistic rant against Carrie.



Score one for the intelligent, gorgeous young lady.

A slap in the back of the head to old Follywood King.

Come someone please tell me why it's such an outrage that she doesn't believe in gay marriage? This is nothing new, there are millions of people who voice their opinions about it everyday on almost every form of media. I am for gay rights, but she is entitled to her opinion is she not, without this fake a s s " I am outraged" attitude? It really makes no sense.

[johndtuttle]

It is an outrage that an obvious idiot would use her bully pulpit and own lack of values to preach the curtailment of the civil rights of others.

For example: "She without sin can be the first to throw stones".

Well, she clearly does not meet the moral purity of her faith she says condemns marriage rights for all so yea, we hate hypocrites.

[ctman47]

Yes indeed, she is entitled to her opinion even if I do not agree with it. But she shoud expect blowback because:
1. She claims to be against "opposite" marriage becuase it is unnatural and against the
intentions of God.
Breast implants are unnatural and against the intentions of God.
2. She is utterly unbending and self-righteous in her attitudes and statements based upon
being a "better" Christian.
She has a significant number of semi-nude photos. Would the churches put those in their
weekly newsletters.
3. She whines about her rights being taken away when she is try to take away rights of others
who are God-fearing, religious and patriotic in pretty much the same percentages as the
rest of us.
She seems to be driven more by a hightened desire for fame and money that belief.
That is why we are speaking out against her. Not because she voiced an opinion we do not agree with.

[LMPE]

Whatever. The point is that this woman is an embarrassment to humanity.

[IWantTofu]

It's amazing how someone who didn't have a realistic chance of actually winning the Miss USA competition, even if she gave a "politically correct" (which means a logical and sane) answer, has managed to stay in the spotlight. It's news that she is not going to be on the Larry King show?

[shiningstarra]

Does anyone remember who won?

[opine2u]

Carrie Prejean sure is one beautiful woman, the earth this world and the United States of America, only have so many knockouts, and she's certainly one of them. She should be given a crown for just being, let alone, having one heck of a mind to go with her wonderful looks. A country's treasure are not always and not only its cold statues, real flesh and blood can just as easily warm the heart and get the pulse going.

[KarateKid]

You must really be hard up.

[protagonia]

That comment was as staged as an Old West Show shootout in the middle of a dusty street.

[JerryLevy]

If CNN canceled the appearance, I understand as they would probably have an issue with her. If she canceled the appearance, I would be surprised given how easy a Larry King interview is. This guy is the wettest of noodles.

[omobob]

Maybe Mr. King might ask a question she didn’t see coming like "what kinds of books or magazines does she read?". Sorry, that was just so irresistible.

[sengal68]

Maybe she just doesn't like his bad breath.

[YunekFlava]

Ms Prejean wanted to "be treated with deference" and King bulked.

[WVP]

Good riddance I say...she's been getting too much air-time as it is. Won't she please go away and let us all get on with issues that actually have substance and matter?

[wilray]

She has always had plenty of airtime, and she will always have plenty of airtime. With Prejean, every day is airtime, and some days it's also hot air time.

[sengal68]

Like what, marriage for gays? don't think so.

[Loompa]

Boy, you liberals sure get upset at people who disgree with your ideas, don't you! Live and let live!

[WVP]

WHAT? I couldn't hear you over the complete irrelevance of this remark.

[protagonia]

LOL! New favorite!

[BlackJAC]

Boy, you gops sure don't seem to understand that America rejected you back in November and therefore nobody wants to hear what you have to say, don't you? What say we have a little less sniveling and a little more loving and defending America from you for once?

[kristin1030]

actually we just get annoyed with hypocrisy and self-righteousness

[IWantTofu]

Boy you conservatives sure get upset at people who disagree with your ideas, don't you! You're the pot calling the kettle black.

[protagonia]

Bring Oompa in. Loompa needs a nap.

[KansasWrangler]

Anyone remember what happened to Anita Bryant after the Orange Juice boycott? There isn't an advertiser anywhere who is going to touch this hot potato, and she will certainly have no future in the entertainment industry. She better be looking for that rich Repub politician who she can look good on the arm of.

[glesslib]

That is exactly what will happen. She'll marry some Babbitty Chamber of Commerce type, settle down and homeschool the kids, then stand behind him smiling vacantly while he declares for Governor of ?

[mmgbizgirl]

Can this story die already!!!

[nowarpleez]

She seems to have a permanent scowl on her face. She's a hypocrite.

[roblabrousse]

She's tough as nails. This is a little piranha with water balloons. A girl doesn't get to the top of the pecking order in the Miss USA contest by being nice. She's got sharp claws. Her tramp pictures, the boob job, the make-up and the sex object conscience only point out this girl will use anything to get what she wants. Pouty yes. Innocent,christian girl no. Knows how to peddle hr body yes.Hears Satan and God in hear head ,,well...no. Liar, yes. Living obscenity when it comes to truth and integrity yes.

Her flesh act will only get her so far and she's already used her body to get where she is now. It won't be surprising to see her in a Playboy spread or nude in some other type magazine. That's what her self worth is about, her physical appearance. That's really all she has.

[Loompa]

Do I detect a bit of envy here, robla?

[blaising]

This isn't the "Sims" honey...

[JimBozo]

It's a relief to see her with her mouth closed. I was beginning to think that her lips couldn't close over those giant fluorescent choppers in her mouth.

[Applecheeks]

Ya, THOSE are real!

[NTexasHillbilly]

SWhe borrowed Norm Coleman's plates.

[protagonia]

Hilarious!

[NTexasHillbilly]

She-not SWhe.
