That's Why The Lady is a Tramp

A little name calling, a few naughty pics, and a little sympathy.

So to recap: Fake breasts? Encouraged. Swimsuit competition? Required. Underpants pictures? Shocking!Prejean, who stated in her pageant contract she had never appeared nude or semi-nude, has meanwhile been formally offered a million dollars by adult film studio Vivid to "star" in one of their films. TheDirty.com is referring to her today as a "homophobic debutant," while the commenters there and elsewhere have been considerably less charitable in their assessments of the golden state "skank." Which is why, somewhere around the umpteenth reference to her "hypocrisy," I started to feel pretty dirty myself. I may not understand or agree with any of Prejean's life choices, but I can't feel good about hating her for hers either.At a crucial moment in her career as a beauty queen, she filled out a form and was dishonest about her past. She hid from the truth, from who she had been and what she had done. She is now bearing the punishing consequences of the choice, in the form of public scorn and likely stripping of her title. At another moment, on stage, she was honest. She expressed her view about marriage and got called out as a homophobe and a bitch for it. Whatever anyone may think of her opinion, it seems pretty ambushy to ask for it and then excoriate her for giving it.
