(Newser) – The California beauty who lost the state pageant to Carrie Prejean is eying the tiara, TMZ reports. Prejean’s” beliefs are not what is in question, but her contractual obligations to the Miss California USA program,” Tami Farrell wrote officials, alluding to semi-nude shots of Prejean that may violate pageant rules. Farrell offered to refocus attention on “more positive aspects of the program.”

Farrell vows to be a less controversial face for the Miss California USA pageant.

If she didn't lie about the pictures and the number of them (which is a breach of her contract) then there would not have been an issue.

ive seen the so called "nude" shots Prejean....Ive seen more exposure at Redondo Beach, than those picts (thus far released)...I still have yet to be convinced this media frenzy is anything but retaliation

I agree you see the same thing or more on the cover of Maximum each month...if she had answered the question the way that judge wanted her to then none of this would even be going on.
