OlderCarrie Prejean: Satan Was Tempting Me
Miss California Carrie Prejean made a Monday morning radio talk show appearance on James Dobson’s daily Focus on the Family program.
The 73-year-old evangelical author and radio host asked Carrie about her Miss USA Pageant answer regarding gay marriage. Carrie said (via USAToday): “I felt as though Satan was trying to tempt me in asking me this question. And then God was in my head and in my heart saying, ‘Do not compromise this. You need to stand up for me and you need to share with all these people . . . you need to witness to them and you need to show that you’re not willing to compromise that for this title of Miss USA.’ And I knew right here that it wasn’t about winning. It was about being true to my convictions.”
Topless photos of Carrie recently surfaced on various websites. They were supposedly taken after she turned 18 (she’s 21 now). The fate of her Miss California title will be decided Tuesday (May 12) by Miss USA contest owner Donald Trump.

Ugh, I wish this girl and her hate would just go away already
perez asked her what her thoughts were on a particular topic and she gave an honest answer. she wasn’t trying to change anyone’s opinions and she wasn’t critising those opinions that differed with hers. she hasn’t hurt anyone except maybe herself by exposing herself to so much scrutiny. she has been forced to defend herself in a way that is completely out of proportion to the situation. the hatred exhibited towards her is rediculous, classless and disturbing….and it’s coming from different people for different reasons.
those who preach tolerance should show tolerance if they want anyone to respect them. it can’t be one sided.
I understand how people are defending her right to state her own opinion-afterall she just answered according to her own beliefs. But as a Christian myself, I hate how so-called “Christians” like Miss California, use their religion to judge and condemn how other people live their lives but don’t apply those rules to themselves. Afterall, where was God when she decided to take those nudey pics?
God isn’t hateful and spiteful and only ignorant angry judgemental people like to believe he is, so they can spew their own hate towards other people. Doesn’t matter if you are gay or straight, if you are good person, God ain’t gonna send you to hell, no matter what the Bible says.
oh come on. there’s nothing wrong with expressing opinion. we liberals are all for that (even if it is coming from right-winged nut jobs). I don’t agree with her views on gay marriage or.. “opposite” marriage (pfft.. ‘opposite’ marriage…) but she has the right to express it. so leave her and her silicone breasts be.
I’m not religious and I’m all for gays having equal rights but if the devil was to manifest himself in someone, I have no doubt it would be a tool like Perez Hilton.
She was asked for her opinion and she gave it. Whether you agree or not that was her opinion and I admire that she was true to herself. As for the topless photos, they are out there but from what I have seen they don’t show anymore than a bikini does at the beach.
Who are the retatrds that buy in to all this Bull**it! Give it up already…that girl is just a simple-minded pagent girl…I mean come on, shut up already!
I completely love that fact that God is concerned about Miss America’s title being defended. Did he wake up and go” HOLY CRAP - not Miss America! Not That!” And even better yet, God - who has not spoken to anyone for centuries decides to speak to Miss America! I suppose if I were god I would speak to Miss America, beats the hell out of conversing with the gas station attendant I suppose. Oh, nice boobs.
LOL . . .wow that is a great excuse. I haven’t heard that one in awhile . . .”the devil made me do it” Whatever.
She’s expressing her convictions!!
Why does that scare so many on this board? God says “blow ye hot or blow ye cold……….”
So she’s standing up for what she believes in. She isn’t trying to make you think like she does…she is telling us where she stands because the Bible says homosexuality is an abomination before God.
Take up your gripes with God folks!!!!!!!
@eva: The hate is not respecting someones choices in their own life. Whether two guys want to get married in all honesty is not yours or my business. Using religious points is just silly as most if not all gay people don’t even care about the religious point(church marriage) of any of it but the legal point. Putting sugar on something you say doesn’t truly make it sweeter but mask it. Also, saying you don’t think gay people are normal is hateful and disrespectful. Again, what is normal and your normal doesn’t represent the whole of the U.S. or any country for that matter. Also, in regards to going off topic the point was still in reference of the topic ;-)
She’s COURAGEOUS!!!!!!!!
She said her convictions are more important than a silly title.
She’s right!!!!!!!!!
Boy, doesn’t it suck when people stick their noses in your personal business and make nasty judgments about who you are and say we should strip away something that you think you deserve as much as anyone else?
Welcome to karma, byotch.
robins 3: The bible also says eating shellfish is an abomination. So the almighty hates gays and shellfish. How effing retarded.
stop asking these loaded questions if you dont want an honest answer. Period. it was a set up by that perez. she didnt hate on anyone. i dont think gay people should get married. i do think they are entitled to full benefits etc. and should be treated with the same respect as everyone else. Bottom line they cant procreate so they are not equal. but they should not be discriminated against either. and i dont give a rats ass what any of you think. the minute a man gets a man pregnant or a woman gets a woman pregnant let me know.
Debbie: Not everyone wants to procreate or thinks procreating is the only reason to get married. It’s about two people. If they decide to add to the mix then they can by adopting. You know, like men and women who can’t have children naturally do. Pull your head out of the bible and out of your ass.

What religion were you raised in?
ri23
Why does Carrie’s conviction scare the poop out of you? You hold a strong opposing opinion. What if you are wrong? Or are you God?
Hey r1 23
I suppose you support the hate bill in Congress? It supports pedophiles! Are you a supporter of pedophiles too?
Was satan tempting her to stop showing up at her contractual Miss Califoria gigs too? This girl is just a bigoted clown. Ya know what??? saying what’s in your hart is NOT admirable when what’s in your heart is bigoted & ugly……..
robins3: I’ve actually studied many religions: christian, buddhist, pagan, hinduism? What do you care? What does “23″ have to do with anything? Nothing scares me about her convictions. What if she’s wrong, what if you’re wrong? Yes, I am god. How did you know?
robins 3: Oh, I love it when you freaks combine gays and pedophilia. Hey, genius, the two are not the same. Nevermind sweety, go take a nap and Jesus will make it all go away.
What religion were you brought up in? Why so scared to answer that question?
I didn’t ask what religions you studied since you were grown. I don’t care about what religions you’ve studied.
ri23 **** wad. my point is they are not equal and no matter what spin you put on in they are not equal whether they want to procreate or not. and also **** wad i am not religious sorry. adoption is not reating a child the natural way so they are not equal.
robins 3: My childhood? Piss off. You’re a fundamentalist christian. Yeah. That’s what I thought.
