Equality California, Carrie Prejean Offered Ad Space During Pageant

Eqca

The Miss California USA pageant has offered Equality California and Carrie Prejean airtime during this year's pageant, which takes place on Sunday. Equality California has accepted the offer, and will air an ad featuring Mary Kate and her two moms, Frances & Cynthia.

No word yet on whether Prejean will accept the offer, which was sent by pageant director Keith Lewis, although this might be a good opportunity to start hawking her sex tapes. The offer:

Dear Carrie,

You may have heard that MISS CALIFORNIA USA 2010 will be broadcast for the first time in more than fifteen years. Although you and I are involved in litigation, I feel that offering you the opportunity to pre-tape a brief message is in keeping with my desire all along to deal fairly in spite of the situation. Please let me know by Wednesday October 21, 2009 if you would like to do so and I will attempt to make suitable arrangements.

Best regards,

Keith Lewis

Report: Carrie Prejean Called Her Sex Tape 'Disgusting'...Before Realizing It Was Her

TMZ is milking the Carrie Prejean sex tape revelation, releasing a few details at a time. The latest snippet relates what happened when the Miss California USA lawyers allegedly showed it to her:

Prejean "When the video started playing, Carrie's first reaction was 'that's disgusting' ... and Carrie denied it was her. Then, the camera angle changed ... and panned up to her face. She was caught red-handed ... so to speak. Carrie was rendered speechless and immediately began talking with her lawyer. We're told it took about 15 seconds for Carrie to drop her $1 million dollar demand."


Carrie Prejean Fake Boob Lawsuits Dropped

TMZ reports on this important development:

Prejean "Carrie Prejean and the people behind Miss California USA have dropped their lawsuits against each other -- meaning the "biblically correct" beauty queen doesn't need to reimburse the pageant for her boob job. We just received the following statement from Miss Cali USA: 'Carrie Prejean, Keith Lewis, and K2 productions have dropped their claim against each other and wish each other the best in their future endeavors. We are moving forward from the past and looking towards the crowning of two winners and the new look of the upcoming MISS CALIFORNIA USA pageant, telecast live on November 22nd.'"


Miss California Lawsuit: Carrie Prejean Owes Us for Her Fake Boobs

K2 Productions, the company behind Miss California USA, is suing former Miss California Carrie Prejean, saying she owes the $5200 for breast implants, among other things.

The NYDN reports: Prejean "Ex-Miss California Carrie Prejean stiffed pageant organizer K2 Productions even though she requested the surgery 'to be more competitive' at the April 2009 Miss USA pageant and verbally agreed to repay the K2 loan, a complaint filed yesterday states...The new suit accuses Prejean of missing events, lying about semi-nude photos, negotiating an unauthorized book deal and using her title without authorization to help promote the National Organization for Marriage's "campaign of intolerance" against gay marriage. K2 asks for the proceeds from Prejean's planned book, the $5,200 from the breast surgery and other relief. "

The suit even gets Biblical: "She attempts to cast herself as a virtuous young woman and the victim in a supposed conspiracy against her...Had [Prejean] heeded the guidance of the Gospel of John, who admonished only those who are without sin to cast stones in judgment, she might have avoided this legal battle."

Added Keith Lewis: "We are saddened by the necessity to file a counter-claim today against Carrie Prejean...We are continuing to prepare for our upcoming telecast of the Miss California USA pageant on November 22nd, but the integrity of the Miss California USA organization and the values it represents requires us to respond and present the truth. Our claim is not about financial reward, and all profits awarded will be donated to a charity that promotes the values of our organization."

A Chicago gay men's beauty pageant ended in blood after a judge, unhappy with the results, beat another judge with the trophy while one of the contestants assaulted him with a sharp object, the Chicago Tribune reports. The victim suffered a broken jaw and required stitches on his hand:

"Leroy Tinch (left), 28, of the 2200 block of Emerson Street in Evanston and Anthony Johnson (right), 23, of the 8200 block of Keating Avenue in Skokie were both charged with aggravated battery with great bodily harm, a class one felony, said Andrew Conklin, a spokesman for the Cook County state's attorney's office. The men were ordered held on $75,000 bond by Circuit Court Judge Maria Kuriakos Ciesil. Prosecutors said the men were at the pageant at 3350 W. Jackson Blvd., where Johnson was a contestant and Tinch was a judge. Johnson allegedly became angry with another judge after he voted for different contestant, grabbed the trophy and hit the judge in the head with it. Tinch then jumped in and began hitting the judge with a sharp object (a knife, according to NBC), cutting him over his left eye, Conklin said."
