(Newser) – The seminude photos of Carrie Prejean that emerged recently may not be the only ones—and the secret snaps could cost the controversial gay marriage opponent the Miss California crown, CNN reports. Pageant officials held closed-door meetings yesterday to discuss Prejean’s fate. “The reports say that there are more photos to come. We'll see what happens with those,” said a spokesperson. “They are going over the legalities and clearly she breached her contract.”

The co-executive director will meet with Prejean's Miss California runner-up “to discuss the possible next steps,” the spokesperson said. Meanwhile, Prejean’s publicist defended her to TMZ: “In her naïveté, an agent convinced her to pose for this photo to submit to a lingerie company, claiming they could make her the next Victoria's Secret model. She has since learned what a lie that was, and what a mistake it was.”

"We live in a land where you can choose to take topless pictures as a minor or have class and honor and choose the opposite. And you know what, I think in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that taking soft porn pictures is my right. No offense to anybody out there, but that's how I was raised."

Never pass up a good opportunity! She is being handed tons of chances to benefit herself right now, and why shouldn't she? People are so quick to judge (see keybored above) - as if we aren't all hypocrites on some level. I agree with TerrifiedCitizen - this is typical. America - the land of opportunity!
