During the Miss USA pageant that took place near the end of April, Miss California, Carrie Prejean, was asked by super blogger Perez Hilton how she felt about gay marriage. In response to the question, she gave her honest opinion that she was raised to believe and did wholly believe that marriage is a union between only a man and a woman.
Silly, silly woman. How could she be so oblivious to who she was talking to? According to Urban Dictionary, "Perez Hilton (aka Mario Lavandeira), the self-proclaimed 'Queen of all Media', is an openly gay celebrity gossip blogger." His flamboyant rants and witty remarks amuse his readers almost daily. So how could a woman of such a heavy pageant background not realize that one of her judges is one of the gayest men in America?
In reaction to her controversial opinion, the media exploded. Did she lose her chance at a crown because a horrified Hilton wanted had a grudge? Is it actually possible that a grown man is so immature that he would let a woman's personal opinion interrupt his judging abilities?
She's been in numerous pageants prior to this one and should have realized by now that some people are so one-minded they can't handle what you have to say. So next time she's asked such a controversial question, she should smile, look pretty, and tell the people what they want to hear.
