P - let it go. She may not have given the best answer possible, but she has every right to state her own personal beliefs even if it cost her the crown. Don't put yourself on a lower level by beating the dead horse. Keep posting the emails of the biggots who are writing you though - thats awesome!
you know what. . . she did lose the crown cause of that and she deserved it. . . she is ignorant and needs to shut her trap. . . she needs to get the sand out of her vag!
You may have shot yourself in the foot on this one Perez. While Miss California is White Bread conservative, your hissy fit makes you look like a raving, angry gay with an agenda.
You made a GREAT POINT to say how she should have answered regarding individual states should decide for themselves, but when you resorted to name calling, you discredited your cause.
so what was she supposed to do, lie? she was asked a question and she gave her answer! If you wanted to answer for her you should have given her "the right answer" for her to say…. I don't agree with her but she's entitled to her own opinion and beliefs. Maybe next time this event should be scripted so these girl's answers are "right"
No what she is saying is SCREW BEING FAKE! You are SUCH an asshole Perez. SHE HAS A RIGHT TO HER OPINION, NO MATTER WHO SHE IS AND WHETHER SHE IS IN A BEAUTY PAGEANT OR SOMEONE WALKING DOWN THE STREET. YOU ARE DISCRIMINATING AGAINST HER, SO YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN HER! GET THAT THROUGH YOU FAT POTATO HEAD YOU PEDO
It's funny to see the guy in green in the background waving at the camera. Miss California stands for her believes saying: "I THINK I believe? So she even isn't sure of what she believes. If Miss California is standing for her believe well guess what… SO IS PEREZ!
I see nothing wrong with her answer. She is entitled to her opinion just like you are. You have no right shoving your views down our throats just because you feel that you and all gay people should be allowed to marry. Just like I won't try and shove my views down yours on why I don't think you should be allowed to do it. You should of never asked that question knowing that there are people out there that do not see it your way and never will. Now you attack her for her beliefs because they do not conform to yours. Good for Miss California for sticking to her views and not letting anyone back her into a corner.
Last I read… twenty-nine states have a constitutional ban restricting marriage to one man and one woman. I don't know why Perez champions Vermont as being some big turning point for his cause/agenda.
Get over it Perez!! The woman said what she believes!! You are enjoying your name (or faux name) being out there way too much…and you talk about actual celebrities for doing that.
Good job Miss California for sticking to your beliefs! We are all American and allowed to speak our own opinion!!!! She never said she was going to parade for same sex marriage! Get over it Perez!
She's not offensive nor politically incorrect. She speak for herself, which yes she's allowed to do Perez, AND a lot of people who feel the same way in this country of ours. You're sounding real whiney and you posting people's emails with their contact information is like my 2 year old telling on his brother. As a blogger you have to expect both good and bad feedback. You're dealing with the public all over the world. I like you but wish you would rise above some of this because it's so monotonous.
Good job, man. You voted against her not by being unbiased and leaving personal opinions out of it, but because she said something you didn't like. Freedom of speech is dead in this country because people like you feel the need to destroy the lives of anyone who says something stupid (and she did say something very stupid) instead of letting them live with egg on their faces on their own. She's a retarded blonde, and they say stupid things. Ask Paris. That doesn't give you the right to go on a witch hunt to destroy them.
And why the hell are you and Paris famous? Is American culture so bankrupt that we make any spoiled over-priveleged heriess to be a celebrity?
People who live in glass houses shouldn't be calling the kettle black. In other words, you're all kinds of hypocritical by expecting people to be politically correct when you yourself are NOT. You keep shoving YOUR opinions down our throats but you take offense when someone, like Miss California (who admittedly did NOT give the smartest answer), has the courage to stand up to you and for her own beliefs. What, you can dish it out but you can't take it?
Oh My Gosh!!
Enough already! You're missing the point - she may have said something policitically incorrect and all that other yada yada. You say she's too irresponsible to be a Miss USA winner annnnd the bottom line is she ISN'T!!
Yes, perhaps she shouldn't have said it, but then she would always (and clearly does) have been thinking it, you can't just change minds!! I wish you the best Perez but this is getting boring and childish now.
Especially when you've made your name from ripping celebrities to pieces on a daily basis.
What bothers me most is that this bitch is playing the matyr for stating her beliefs without taking any accountability for giving a a lackluster response to a tough question!
Why isn't she entitled to her opinions, just like you are, Perez? I also say screw political correctness, all the PC bullshit has just gone too far! People are scared to death to speak their minds!
We all listen to your opinions on the gay marriage subject, but you're not the end-all, be-all. Just because you disagree with her, doesn't mean she can't have her own feelings on the subject.
Miss USA should be a reflection of where our country is going not the oppression of its history. Why can't people just be happy with others being happy?
It is about time someone in the United States actually spoke their mind honestly. Whether you agree with what she said or not is not the point. The point is that she is honest and answered a direct question with a direct answer. Good for her. We really do not hear honesty anymore. The shame of it is that because of her honesty, she did not win the crown, which only shows how people would prefer a manipulator and dishonest person to be representing our country if it is in a position as trivial as a beauty queen.
She could have answered the question better. She could have said she believes one way and she realizes other people believe differently, that she is willing to learn and understand. You are the one who has behaved poorly, calling her the c word. Obscene.
This is getting fucking tiring you asshole! How many times are you going to shove this story down our throat? How many times are you going to hate on her for not having YOUR opinion you fucking hypocritical fuckface asshole!!! I hope this blows up in your fat ugly face! And what is it with you calling others fame whores while you show you're ugly face everywhere talking about what a horrible person she is?? soak it up fatboy, soak it up!
Perez- I found that incredibly eloquent and well worded. She is Miss USA, and a large percent of the population is either gay or supportive of gay rights, including gay marriage, and hopefully that percent will keep growing larger and larger. Preach it sister!!
Good for her, she spoke her mind instead of feeding to the liberal hollywood crowd. And wow that girl is absolutely beautiful.
Perez you are a hypocrite. If she would have said she wanted same-sex marriage federally legalized then you would have applauded bringing in politics into the pageant. I get that you are upset but come on!! AND government bailouts is NOT the same realm as same-sex marriage so stop comparing it.
politically correct would be a the gay community accepting a "civil union" as their definition of marriage, not tryin to change the beliefs of religious people. when will they learn that can't change a person's view. we are entitled to our opinions. just like i don't believe in god or gay marriage. try to take it away from me. ill take ur for a cup of coffee.ur losing perez
How pathetic you are, Perez. Just because someome doesn't think like your WARPED MIND does, you go around bashing them all over TV, the internet, etc…… You are a pathetic excuse for a human being!!!
Also, since when did saying the name "Jesus" offend anyone? I am a Christian, and last time someone said "Allah" or "Mohammed" to me, I don't recall being offended. Funny though…if she was Muslim and was publicly praising Allah you wouldn't have a thing to say about it. Such a double standard…
Hi! So I'm glad I'm the first to leave a comment…This is absolutely absurd!Mr. Hilton puh-lease you honestly need to relax…Its understandable that you have a certain lifestyle and she offended you with her opinion but thats exactly what it was- an opinion! I stand by Miss California and the response she made…Not everyone is for gay marriage and Im pretty sure you know that otherwise it wouldnt be such an issue of controversy. Let her be…everyone had their own beliefs- it doesn't give you the right to bash them and call everyone a B***h…Theres a HUGE world out there if you didnt notice and other people say crueler things about gay marriage and just homosexuals in general! I do have lots of buddies who are gay and lesbian and whatever makes them happy i totally support…but not everyone is OPEN MINDED… Honestly, you think everyone is going to agree with you on this?? Please let me know cuz I'd love to see your response
How disgusting….not her, you!
She is entitled to her opinion, whatever it may be. She made no slanderous or derogatory remarks. You are the offensive & politically insensitive one here. If some doesn't agree with you and your beliefs than they are horrible bigots that we need to shun and make as outcasts. Basically you are telling your readers that instead of saying how they truly feel and what they believe, they should lie their a**es off because that's the only way you'll be on top. But again, what can you expect form a 30 year old boy who makes fun of a 15 year old girl and calls her a slut
Honestly, this shouldn't even be blown out of porporation the way that it is. It would have been simple enough if she stick to the normal pagent queen answers but she didn't. Everyone has their own beliefs and views not everyone is going to agree on one thing. If she were to say that being gay or having a gay marriage is a sin now that would be a different story. As a supporter of gay marriages, I do agree that it should've been worded differently but again its her own beliefs and I can't fault her for that.
Geez man, cut it out already. You're making a thunderstorm out of a puddle.
Isn't America supposed to be "the land of the free" ?? She was HONEST and BRAVE enough to give her TRUE OPINION. She wasn't being offensive at all, not even hypocritical. Or are you saying that EVERYONE should think and answer just the way you do so we can be "politically correct" ? You, my friend, are the one being irrational.
Finds it outrageous that the same laws that give you the right to have this website and talk all this mess, are the same laws that allows Miss California to have HER OPINION! God forbid somebody have an opinion that differs from yours, we all know how this world would suck if we were all just like you. So she's a conservative, get over it. If you are so narrow minded, maybe it's your opinion that she lost the crown because of her OPINION, but maybe she should have been scored on the fact that she had the courage to speak her true feelings and not lie about it just to get the votes. She was honest to herself, which is all we can ask. You really need to get off your pedestal cause it's ridiculously cloudy from where you are sitting. By the way, I am pro whatever makes YOU (as in each person individually) happy. I don't care for ignorance but I'm not here to judge. So stop throwing stones at someone who is doing something you do everyday. SHARING HER OPINION~HER TRUTH, get over it and try acting like you want people to act towards you, your mother shoulda gave you that advice growing up.
I would just like to say that Miss CA was only doing what you make a living doing. Stating her opinion. You asked her a question, so you should have been open and WILLING to accept her answer. Not to belittle and criticize her. What would have rather her done? Bend to the pressures of the media and her peers and compromise her beliefs? Wouldn't that have been much worse than staying true to herself and her beliefs? You yourself have many opinions and express them freely no matter who you may offend, and think nothing of it. In fact you earn your living doing so. So who are you to go to such lengths to trash talk somebody who was doing nothing more than answering your damn question. You need to drop it. You are starting to look like an idiot not to mention you yourself are coming across as an arogant know it all.
The more this drags on, the more intelligent and poised she looks and the more irrational and hateful you look Perez. You really should drop this for your own good.
You SERIOUSLY need to stop it, Perez. You're coming off as a bigger idiot than normal. She has a right to her opinion. You really give fags a bad name.
oh Perez estás muy pesado con tu cruzada, pides tolerancia pero tu no la tienes. Cada uno que piense lo que quiera. En España hay matrimonio gay desde hace tiempo, lo respeto pero pido respeto para las otras opciones
The fact of the matter here is.. although she did come off as an ignorant, closed minded "twit".. Perez is making her look a million times better everyday by showing how she reacts to the media and how he reacts to the media. There is no reason he should be acting out the way he is, any person with common sense could have very easily made their point that she was not a good mouth piece for USA not being an advocate for equality for everyone WITHOUT resorting to calling names and getting worked up to the point of making oneself look like a total asshole. I understand she was sticking by what she believes in but as someone representing our country as a whole, what does that say to the people who look up and inspire to be like her, she could have just as easily said I was raised in a Christian household where it was believed marriage should be between a man and a woman, but looking at things from a governmental standpoint I do believe every person should have the same right to marry who they love.. the end. But Perez is making her look like the classy one in all this so.. good job Perez.
If she wants to stand up for HER beliefs, then she shouldn't be competing for USA. There is nothing wrong with standing up for what you believe in, but you also should be considerate of how your beliefs affect other people! Perez isn't the idiot, he never once said she needs to deny her feelings, but because she is representing the entire country, she should at least attempt to be neutral.
Because she is representing EVERYONE not just those like HER.
Honestly do we care who Miss USA is???? Our country never watches this sh*t…get over it perez, yes her answer was "incorrect" but she didn't win, get over it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fame whore…worry about your thinning hair…
Perez: you should stop being so intolerant of those who advocate traditional marriage. She is California's representative, and if I'm not mistaken, California's voters recently took a stand to protect the traditional concept of marriage. So even thought you're not happy that proposition 8 passed, Miss California was still representing her state's view. She was not being divisive with her answer. She was being honest. You were the one being divisive by asking such a charged question.
In another interview she says she was biblically correct.
but we're supposed to separate church and state??? even if she thinks thats biblically correct she should still want to make it legal because other religions dont read the bible and we have freedom of religion in this country…I am a christian that has gay friends and I know how to separate church and state and Im smart enough to know that how to separate and accept people of all races and sexual orientations. Its about educating yourself about it all.
im still proud that she could state her opinion on national tv…even though i dont agree. She can have her opinions and she can fling it around as much as she want….Just like I will and gay people will keep fighting for their rights.
and to teach people like her that they deserve everything she does. They pay taxes.
they love and they have feelings.
most religious people seem to think they're all hethans and wild…not the case.
ignorance
why does anyone expect a beauty pagent contestant to answer a question outside of hair and makeup w/ any real knowledge? let her "think" she feels whatever way she wants to thinks she feels….who cares. it's probably her only thought this month…….
No dumbass, you are. It's ok for her to have those opinions. However, when you are running for any kind of public service you represent EVERYONE, and I do believe gays and lesbians are included in that. She is in the realm of public service and therefore needs to keep her big mouth shut. She could have answered that a million different other ways and still maintained her opinion. Do you think that if it had been a racial question she would have answered in the same blunt manner? HELL NO. There are ways to answer tactfully while keeping true to your morals. One way for example is "While I personally believe that marriage is a religious bond between a man and a woman, I do respect the rights of all people in this country and believe that if they feel their rights are being violated, they take the proper course of action through the channels we have set up in our legal system." Viola! She kept true to her morals (albeit ones I find disgusting) yet RESPECTED the opinions of the people she is supposedly representing.
Ms. California is praying for "us" thanks but no thanks, if you don't believe in equality for all, your "prayers" are missing a key element- I'm so over people using religion to sound like they are compassionate! So fake, so 1700's… next.
Thank you, Perez, for the continuation of treating women as objects to be paraded around like a cow at the county fair. The whole Miss USA pageant is disgusting to me, and does nothing for the advancement of our gender.
Really dude, social justice is required for a shitload more groups of people than just gays and lesbians. If you really want social justice for ALL, you should have told the Miss USA people to shove it.
if you didnt want her opinion than you shouldnt have asked where she thought all states should legalize gay marriage…. really. you are just being a baby complaining about her offending all these people. she didnt want to offend anyone she was just being honest. when she answered she wasnt trying to make people happy she had the option to give the "politically correct" answer but decided to be honest instead.
This is AMERICA. Free speech. Freedom of expression. Freedom of beliefs. If Perez Hilton is allowed these freedoms why isn't a beauty pageant contestant? Freedom of speech is freedom of speech - whether it's considered "PC" or not. PH, you're just an intolerant hag!
It really comes down to her making a bigoted comment. For her to say now that she was just being honest is hardly reassuring — in fact it only confirms that she was wrong for the crown.
Considering how much of Miss USA is a total farce. The canned hair, skin, body, and mindless opinions, I find it refreshing that she actually had an opinion that offends you. A real woman of beauty is a woman who doesn't sell herself out to please the people with closed minds.
Mario/Perez…whatever….YOU NEED TO SERIOUSLY LET THIS GO !!!! First, I respect Ms. California, you know why, because she expressed exactly what she felt and she is still expressing her feelings publicly. I have no issues with homosexuals; however, you must understand that not everyone agrees with homosexuality (its just life and the way the world works, not everyone is going to feel the way you do). Ms. California answered your question honestly and now you need to get over it. I am not sure whom you think you are but your opinions is not worth much more than others. Additionally, as a black woman, I find it offensive when homosexuals (you are not the first) compare their struggles to black people fighting for equality. You walk down the street and no one has to know you are gay … a black person walks down the street and one look at my skin and they know I am black. Therefore, my race struggling for recognition and equality is NOT the same as someone fighting for their sexual orientation. The world does not have to know you are gay and stop attempting to convert the universe. Everyone has different views and opinions and that is what makes our world UNIQUE !!!
Perez the reality of the situation is she stood up for her beliefs — YOU just didn't like her answer. In your interview with Matt Lauer you came across as a bitter person, who has no tolerance for a differing point of view.
We may not agree with her stance, but I give the lady credit for being honest. Personally, you asked the question to get more attention for yourself, which is unfortunate given that this was a pageant for the ladies — not for the Queen of all Media.
I would not be surprised if you just killed a lot of your ad revenue with your vengeful media blitz.
Re: sexiijessii226 – i definitely agree, she claims she worked so hard for that crown and everything but she KNEW that if she wanted to win that badly that she was gonna have to put her beliefs aside and give an unbiased answer. she says she wouldn't change it, so you know, let's just give up on her AND the subject because she's being extremely ignorant. yes, she did the right thing by standing up for her beliefs and yes, she is most certainly entitled to her own opinion, but she was at the wrong place and time to be undiplomatic.
she didnt lose the crown because of your question she lost the crown coz she is a dumb bitch who cant answer the question. I mean she said we live in a country where we can choose same sex or opisite marrige hello not true .Plus she shouldnt have been so offensive and religouse about it and people who are against same sex marraige are stupid it doesnt affect her if others get married and can be happy she must be stuck in cavemen times stupid. This is why i HATE religion.
okay i actually got through watching the video…and perez you have taken it too far…you can't even breathe and your rant makes no sense..you sound like a dumb a$$, cry baby who rants and doesn't make sense, just because you didn't get your way..you are trying to TELL her how to act…oh i see PEREZ wants to be a contestant next year, that's why he's starting all this mess…I doubt they will have you on again.
Why are you posting these? They make you look bad….or are you so warped that you think you look right? You come off, as usual, like a total dick. BTW I'm pretty sure Matt thinks you're douche xoxo
She did exactly what you would do Perez, when asked for an opinion - she gave it straight - but with one difference. She took into consideration other people while not compromising herself or her beliefs. She has to leave politics and religion at the door? Please. Carrie Prejean has her priorities bang on. She's praying for you - this girl should have been Miss USA.
We want a Miss America who can speak her mind. Not one that's pressured into saying what a group of people want her to say. She said what the MAJORITY of Americans say in private. She's just got the balls to stay true to her beliefs in a public forum. Get over it. Gays can do what they want; they can have legal agreements drawn up, commitment ceremonies. Why do they need everyone to recognized them as being like a heterosexual married couple? They're NOT like a heterosexual married couple. The world doesn't need to sanction Gay marriage for them to live their lives as they please. Just because humans do things doesn't make it natural or acceptable to everyone. Be happy that you have the FREEDOM to live your life as you want. I really dislike you for sabotaging this woman, you knew full well what you were doing. You are not a honorable person. Even gays should be ashamed of you. I'm sure they're not ALL underhanded and mean spirited like YOU.
she lost, so who cares. it's a freakin' beauty pagent, so who cares. and politically correct is subjective. i don't agree with her. whatever. she comes off like a vapid shell of a person, but, who cares?
stop giving her air time. her 15 minutes has been way too long.
Get over it you cry baby bitch. She is a butterface..that is why she lost you dick hype.
P - let it go. She may not have given the best answer possible, but she has every right to state her own personal beliefs even if it cost her the crown. Don't put yourself on a lower level by beating the dead horse. Keep posting the emails of the biggots who are writing you though - thats awesome!
Ohhh perez please shut the fuck up already….
yeah.. one just like Perez herself.
Check again Perez. I think your hubby missed suckingggg a turd off your wee wee. Poor thing.
Political correctness has cost us our right to think for ourselves!
you know what. . . she did lose the crown cause of that and she deserved it. . . she is ignorant and needs to shut her trap. . . she needs to get the sand out of her vag!
You may have shot yourself in the foot on this one Perez. While Miss California is White Bread conservative, your hissy fit makes you look like a raving, angry gay with an agenda.
You made a GREAT POINT to say how she should have answered regarding individual states should decide for themselves, but when you resorted to name calling, you discredited your cause.
Love you anyway!
oh my GOD would you get over this? you're in your 30s for fuck sake, grow up!
so what was she supposed to do, lie? she was asked a question and she gave her answer! If you wanted to answer for her you should have given her "the right answer" for her to say…. I don't agree with her but she's entitled to her own opinion and beliefs. Maybe next time this event should be scripted so these girl's answers are "right"
I'd say the egotistical and materialistic "Miss Whatever She Won 2009" suits everyone just fine…….
*
holy shit - talk about beatin' a dead horse……..
No what she is saying is SCREW BEING FAKE! You are SUCH an asshole Perez. SHE HAS A RIGHT TO HER OPINION, NO MATTER WHO SHE IS AND WHETHER SHE IS IN A BEAUTY PAGEANT OR SOMEONE WALKING DOWN THE STREET. YOU ARE DISCRIMINATING AGAINST HER, SO YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN HER! GET THAT THROUGH YOU FAT POTATO HEAD YOU PEDO
WHATEVER…can we move on?
.
.
Newsflash: Americans don't all think the same about the same thing.
.
.
She IS an idiot though
Society is too PC.
so stupid.
GET THE FUCK OVER IT PEREZ!
OLD NEWS
This is why SHE LOST!
LOST LOST LOST! She is a LOSER! She LOST! I think that's why she is pissed. CUZ SHE LOST LOST LOST!
LOSER
LOSER
LOSER
LOSER
LOSER
LOSER!
If i wasn't gay, i would hate fuck this girl, try to give her some perspective.
It's funny to see the guy in green in the background waving at the camera. Miss California stands for her believes saying: "I THINK I believe? So she even isn't sure of what she believes. If Miss California is standing for her believe well guess what… SO IS PEREZ!
I see nothing wrong with her answer. She is entitled to her opinion just like you are. You have no right shoving your views down our throats just because you feel that you and all gay people should be allowed to marry.

You should of never asked that question knowing that there are people out there that do not see it your way and never will. Now you attack her for her beliefs because they do not conform to yours. Good for Miss California for sticking to her views and not letting anyone back her into a corner.
"Screw political correctness" , i think she learnt this from u Perez
Let it go Perez - YOU are wrong in sooo many ways. She has the right to her beliefs as you have the right to perform oral sex on a man.
.
Move on…
She needs to HUSH UP while shes still ahead!!
Thank GOD! He obviously didn't WANT A DUMB BITCH becoming Miss America.
"Thy will be done … BITCH!"
Last I read… twenty-nine states have a constitutional ban restricting marriage to one man and one woman. I don't know why Perez champions Vermont as being some big turning point for his cause/agenda.
Get over it Perez!! The woman said what she believes!! You are enjoying your name (or faux name) being out there way too much…and you talk about actual celebrities for doing that.
Good job Miss California for sticking to your beliefs! We are all American and allowed to speak our own opinion!!!! She never said she was going to parade for same sex marriage! Get over it Perez!

You're dealing with the public all over the world. I like you but wish you would rise above some of this because it's so monotonous.
dont worry Captain Stupid is praying for us
Good job, man. You voted against her not by being unbiased and leaving personal opinions out of it, but because she said something you didn't like. Freedom of speech is dead in this country because people like you feel the need to destroy the lives of anyone who says something stupid (and she did say something very stupid) instead of letting them live with egg on their faces on their own.

You keep shoving YOUR opinions down our throats but you take offense when someone, like Miss California (who admittedly did NOT give the smartest answer), has the courage to stand up to you and for her own beliefs. What, you can dish it out but you can't take it?
LOL @ At the guy waving in the beginning.
He looks like a lime.
Yes!!! I love Carrie! Everyone should be able to stand by their own beliefs without being bashed in the public spot light! Its AMERICA!!!!
first?
and OMG LET IT GO PEREZ!!!
Oh Perez-Why are you being so mean to someone that does not agree with you? Can't we agree to disagree?
Oh My Gosh!!
Enough already! You're missing the point - she may have said something policitically incorrect and all that other yada yada. You say she's too irresponsible to be a Miss USA winner annnnd the bottom line is she ISN'T!!
Yes, perhaps she shouldn't have said it, but then she would always (and clearly does) have been thinking it, you can't just change minds!! I wish you the best Perez but this is getting boring and childish now.

She is a Straight Supremist - period.
A bible bigot.
Same that used to defend laws against people with different skin color from getting married — they were bible bigots too.
Same that used to defend slavery quoting the bible - just bible bigots.
Straight Supremists = White Supremists
The Straight Supremists will reward here - which is what she wants.
Yeah you go Mario keep on showing the world just what a asshole you really are.
This is getting fucking tiring you asshole! How many times are you going to shove this story down our throat? How many times are you going to hate on her for not having YOUR opinion you fucking hypocritical fuckface asshole!!! I hope this blows up in your fat ugly face! And what is it with you calling others fame whores while you show you're ugly face everywhere talking about what a horrible person she is?? soak it up fatboy, soak it up!
Perez- I found that incredibly eloquent and well worded. She is Miss USA, and a large percent of the population is either gay or supportive of gay rights, including gay marriage, and hopefully that percent will keep growing larger and larger. Preach it sister!!
Good for her, she spoke her mind instead of feeding to the liberal hollywood crowd. And wow that girl is absolutely beautiful.
Perez you are a hypocrite. If she would have said she wanted same-sex marriage federally legalized then you would have applauded bringing in politics into the pageant. I get that you are upset but come on!! AND government bailouts is NOT the same realm as same-sex marriage so stop comparing it.
politically correct would be a the gay community accepting a "civil union" as their definition of marriage, not tryin to change the beliefs of religious people. when will they learn that can't change a person's view. we are entitled to our opinions. just like i don't believe in god or gay marriage. try to take it away from me. ill take ur for a cup of coffee.ur losing perez
Re: Biznatch – Exactly right. Don't ask for tolerance when you show none in return.
Good for her. Perez, chill out. Just because not everyone believes the way you do doesn't mean they're "dumb bitches." Get over it.
I LOVE THE LADY GAGA IN THE BACK! LOL NICE!

CHIEF KUNT OF THE UNIVERSE!!!

I WANT A PRINCIPLED AND HONEST MISS USA!!!!
GOOD FOR YOU CARRIE!!!!
How pathetic you are, Perez. Just because someome doesn't think like your WARPED MIND does, you go around bashing them all over TV, the internet, etc…… You are a pathetic excuse for a human being!!!
Gotta give her credit for being honest. That's why you have this fab career Perez, for saying what you think, even if it pisses people off.
Mario be proud you now sound as stupid as you look.
The bottom line is that she should have been more prepared to answer that question, she is Miss California.
Also, since when did saying the name "Jesus" offend anyone? I am a Christian, and last time someone said "Allah" or "Mohammed" to me, I don't recall being offended. Funny though…if she was Muslim and was publicly praising Allah you wouldn't have a thing to say about it. Such a double standard…
Hi! So I'm glad I'm the first to leave a comment…This is absolutely absurd!Mr. Hilton puh-lease you honestly need to relax…Its understandable that you have a certain lifestyle and she offended you with her opinion but thats exactly what it was- an opinion! I stand by Miss California and the response she made…Not everyone is for gay marriage and Im pretty sure you know that otherwise it wouldnt be such an issue of controversy. Let her be…everyone had their own beliefs- it doesn't give you the right to bash them and call everyone a B***h…Theres a HUGE world out there if you didnt notice and other people say crueler things about gay marriage and just homosexuals in general! I do have lots of buddies who are gay and lesbian and whatever makes them happy i totally support…but not everyone is OPEN MINDED… Honestly, you think everyone is going to agree with you on this?? Please let me know cuz I'd love to see your response
How disgusting….not her, you!
She is entitled to her opinion, whatever it may be. She made no slanderous or derogatory remarks. You are the offensive & politically insensitive one here. If some doesn't agree with you and your beliefs than they are horrible bigots that we need to shun and make as outcasts. Basically you are telling your readers that instead of saying how they truly feel and what they believe, they should lie their a**es off because that's the only way you'll be on top. But again, what can you expect form a 30 year old boy who makes fun of a 15 year old girl and calls her a slut
Get over yourself Mario! People in this world have different opinions. Live with it already. Not everyone is gay! Jeez!!
Honestly, this shouldn't even be blown out of porporation the way that it is. It would have been simple enough if she stick to the normal pagent queen answers but she didn't. Everyone has their own beliefs and views not everyone is going to agree on one thing. If she were to say that being gay or having a gay marriage is a sin now that would be a different story. As a supporter of gay marriages, I do agree that it should've been worded differently but again its her own beliefs and I can't fault her for that.
Geez man, cut it out already. You're making a thunderstorm out of a puddle.
Isn't America supposed to be "the land of the free" ?? She was HONEST and BRAVE enough to give her TRUE OPINION. She wasn't being offensive at all, not even hypocritical. Or are you saying that EVERYONE should think and answer just the way you do so we can be "politically correct" ? You, my friend, are the one being irrational.
And for the record, I'm gay :p
Finds it outrageous that the same laws that give you the right to have this website and talk all this mess, are the same laws that allows Miss California to have HER OPINION! God forbid somebody have an opinion that differs from yours, we all know how this world would suck if we were all just like you. So she's a conservative, get over it. If you are so narrow minded, maybe it's your opinion that she lost the crown because of her OPINION, but maybe she should have been scored on the fact that she had the courage to speak her true feelings and not lie about it just to get the votes. She was honest to herself, which is all we can ask. You really need to get off your pedestal cause it's ridiculously cloudy from where you are sitting. By the way, I am pro whatever makes YOU (as in each person individually) happy. I don't care for ignorance but I'm not here to judge. So stop throwing stones at someone who is doing something you do everyday. SHARING HER OPINION~HER TRUTH, get over it and try acting like you want people to act towards you, your mother shoulda gave you that advice growing up.
I would just like to say that Miss CA was only doing what you make a living doing. Stating her opinion. You asked her a question, so you should have been open and WILLING to accept her answer. Not to belittle and criticize her. What would have rather her done? Bend to the pressures of the media and her peers and compromise her beliefs? Wouldn't that have been much worse than staying true to herself and her beliefs? You yourself have many opinions and express them freely no matter who you may offend, and think nothing of it. In fact you earn your living doing so. So who are you to go to such lengths to trash talk somebody who was doing nothing more than answering your damn question. You need to drop it. You are starting to look like an idiot not to mention you yourself are coming across as an arogant know it all.
The more this drags on, the more intelligent and poised she looks and the more irrational and hateful you look Perez. You really should drop this for your own good.
enough is enough
You SERIOUSLY need to stop it, Perez. You're coming off as a bigger idiot than normal. She has a right to her opinion. You really give fags a bad name.
I love that she has stood up for what she believes in.
I love that Perez has as well.
.
God Bless America.
oh Perez estás muy pesado con tu cruzada, pides tolerancia pero tu no la tienes. Cada uno que piense lo que quiera. En España hay matrimonio gay desde hace tiempo, lo respeto pero pido respeto para las otras opciones
The fact of the matter here is.. although she did come off as an ignorant, closed minded "twit".. Perez is making her look a million times better everyday by showing how she reacts to the media and how he reacts to the media. There is no reason he should be acting out the way he is, any person with common sense could have very easily made their point that she was not a good mouth piece for USA not being an advocate for equality for everyone WITHOUT resorting to calling names and getting worked up to the point of making oneself look like a total asshole. I understand she was sticking by what she believes in but as someone representing our country as a whole, what does that say to the people who look up and inspire to be like her, she could have just as easily said I was raised in a Christian household where it was believed marriage should be between a man and a woman, but looking at things from a governmental standpoint I do believe every person should have the same right to marry who they love.. the end. But Perez is making her look like the classy one in all this so.. good job Perez.
If she wants to stand up for HER beliefs, then she shouldn't be competing for USA. There is nothing wrong with standing up for what you believe in, but you also should be considerate of how your beliefs affect other people! Perez isn't the idiot, he never once said she needs to deny her feelings, but because she is representing the entire country, she should at least attempt to be neutral.
Because she is representing EVERYONE not just those like HER.
Honestly do we care who Miss USA is???? Our country never watches this sh*t…get over it perez, yes her answer was "incorrect" but she didn't win, get over it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fame whore…worry about your thinning hair…
with all this publicity she will now probably get her own talk show.
Perez: you should stop being so intolerant of those who advocate traditional marriage. She is California's representative, and if I'm not mistaken, California's voters recently took a stand to protect the traditional concept of marriage. So even thought you're not happy that proposition 8 passed, Miss California was still representing her state's view. She was not being divisive with her answer. She was being honest. You were the one being divisive by asking such a charged question.
In another interview she says she was biblically correct.
but we're supposed to separate church and state??? even if she thinks thats biblically correct she should still want to make it legal because other religions dont read the bible and we have freedom of religion in this country…I am a christian that has gay friends and I know how to separate church and state and Im smart enough to know that how to separate and accept people of all races and sexual orientations. Its about educating yourself about it all.
im still proud that she could state her opinion on national tv…even though i dont agree. She can have her opinions and she can fling it around as much as she want….Just like I will and gay people will keep fighting for their rights.
and to teach people like her that they deserve everything she does. They pay taxes.
they love and they have feelings.
most religious people seem to think they're all hethans and wild…not the case.
ignorance
why does anyone expect a beauty pagent contestant to answer a question outside of hair and makeup w/ any real knowledge? let her "think" she feels whatever way she wants to thinks she feels….who cares. it's probably her only thought this month…….
Re: Biznatch –
No dumbass, you are. It's ok for her to have those opinions. However, when you are running for any kind of public service you represent EVERYONE, and I do believe gays and lesbians are included in that. She is in the realm of public service and therefore needs to keep her big mouth shut. She could have answered that a million different other ways and still maintained her opinion. Do you think that if it had been a racial question she would have answered in the same blunt manner? HELL NO. There are ways to answer tactfully while keeping true to your morals. One way for example is "While I personally believe that marriage is a religious bond between a man and a woman, I do respect the rights of all people in this country and believe that if they feel their rights are being violated, they take the proper course of action through the channels we have set up in our legal system." Viola! She kept true to her morals (albeit ones I find disgusting) yet RESPECTED the opinions of the people she is supposedly representing.
Ms. California is praying for "us" thanks but no thanks, if you don't believe in equality for all, your "prayers" are missing a key element- I'm so over people using religion to sound like they are compassionate! So fake, so 1700's… next.

Thank you, Perez, for the continuation of treating women as objects to be paraded around like a cow at the county fair. The whole Miss USA pageant is disgusting to me, and does nothing for the advancement of our gender.
Really dude, social justice is required for a shitload more groups of people than just gays and lesbians. If you really want social justice for ALL, you should have told the Miss USA people to shove it.
You've lost a bunch of my respect, man. Really.
if you didnt want her opinion than you shouldnt have asked where she thought all states should legalize gay marriage…. really. you are just being a baby complaining about her offending all these people. she didnt want to offend anyone she was just being honest. when she answered she wasnt trying to make people happy she had the option to give the "politically correct" answer but decided to be honest instead.
I FEEL BAD FOR NORTH CAROLINA!
I FEEL BAD FOR NORTH CAROLINA!
I FEEL BAD FOR NORTH CAROLINA!
she should be enjoying her win and success, but all everyone cares about is Miss California's answer. Poor girl, no one is talking about her.
This is AMERICA. Free speech. Freedom of expression. Freedom of beliefs. If Perez Hilton is allowed these freedoms why isn't a beauty pageant contestant? Freedom of speech is freedom of speech - whether it's considered "PC" or not. PH, you're just an intolerant hag!
you are a bigot!! I'm ashamed of you!
Definition of BIGOT-
NOUN:
One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ. (ie Perez Hilton)
I see Fox news or the View in the brain washed wonders future ughh.
It really comes down to her making a bigoted comment. For her to say now that she was just being honest is hardly reassuring — in fact it only confirms that she was wrong for the crown.
This bitch makes me wanna barf!
Considering how much of Miss USA is a total farce. The canned hair, skin, body, and mindless opinions, I find it refreshing that she actually had an opinion that offends you. A real woman of beauty is a woman who doesn't sell herself out to please the people with closed minds.
Mario/Perez…whatever….YOU NEED TO SERIOUSLY LET THIS GO !!!! First, I respect Ms. California, you know why, because she expressed exactly what she felt and she is still expressing her feelings publicly. I have no issues with homosexuals; however, you must understand that not everyone agrees with homosexuality (its just life and the way the world works, not everyone is going to feel the way you do). Ms. California answered your question honestly and now you need to get over it. I am not sure whom you think you are but your opinions is not worth much more than others. Additionally, as a black woman, I find it offensive when homosexuals (you are not the first) compare their struggles to black people fighting for equality. You walk down the street and no one has to know you are gay … a black person walks down the street and one look at my skin and they know I am black. Therefore, my race struggling for recognition and equality is NOT the same as someone fighting for their sexual orientation. The world does not have to know you are gay and stop attempting to convert the universe. Everyone has different views and opinions and that is what makes our world UNIQUE !!!
Perez the reality of the situation is she stood up for her beliefs — YOU just didn't like her answer. In your interview with Matt Lauer you came across as a bitter person, who has no tolerance for a differing point of view.
We may not agree with her stance, but I give the lady credit for being honest. Personally, you asked the question to get more attention for yourself, which is unfortunate given that this was a pageant for the ladies — not for the Queen of all Media.
I would not be surprised if you just killed a lot of your ad revenue with your vengeful media blitz.
Later,
Betty
Pigrez you are one Ugly F*ck!!!

Did your Mother F*ck a horse, pig mule or all 3 at once!!

Damn you F*gly!!!! Andt still FAT!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!
Let it go Perez, you WON!
Re: sexiijessii226 – i definitely agree, she claims she worked so hard for that crown and everything but she KNEW that if she wanted to win that badly that she was gonna have to put her beliefs aside and give an unbiased answer. she says she wouldn't change it, so you know, let's just give up on her AND the subject because she's being extremely ignorant. yes, she did the right thing by standing up for her beliefs and yes, she is most certainly entitled to her own opinion, but she was at the wrong place and time to be undiplomatic.
she didnt lose the crown because of your question she lost the crown coz she is a dumb bitch who cant answer the question. I mean she said we live in a country where we can choose same sex or opisite marrige hello not true .Plus she shouldnt have been so offensive and religouse about it and people who are against same sex marraige are stupid it doesnt affect her if others get married and can be happy she must be stuck in cavemen times stupid. This is why i HATE religion.
okay i actually got through watching the video…and perez you have taken it too far…you can't even breathe and your rant makes no sense..you sound like a dumb a$$, cry baby who rants and doesn't make sense, just because you didn't get your way..you are trying to TELL her how to act…oh i see PEREZ wants to be a contestant next year, that's why he's starting all this mess…I doubt they will have you on again.
another gay man performing reverse racism on straight people!
this is why I hate GAYS …GO FUCKING DIE OF AIDS U FUCKING RACISTS!!!
Why are you posting these? They make you look bad….or are you so warped that you think you look right? You come off, as usual, like a total dick. BTW I'm pretty sure Matt thinks you're douche xoxo
She did exactly what you would do Perez, when asked for an opinion - she gave it straight - but with one difference. She took into consideration other people while not compromising herself or her beliefs. She has to leave politics and religion at the door? Please. Carrie Prejean has her priorities bang on. She's praying for you - this girl should have been Miss USA.
We want a Miss America who can speak her mind. Not one that's pressured into saying what a group of people want her to say. She said what the MAJORITY of Americans say in private. She's just got the balls to stay true to her beliefs in a public forum. Get over it. Gays can do what they want; they can have legal agreements drawn up, commitment ceremonies. Why do they need everyone to recognized them as being like a heterosexual married couple? They're NOT like a heterosexual married couple. The world doesn't need to sanction Gay marriage for them to live their lives as they please. Just because humans do things doesn't make it natural or acceptable to everyone. Be happy that you have the FREEDOM to live your life as you want. I really dislike you for sabotaging this woman, you knew full well what you were doing. You are not a honorable person. Even gays should be ashamed of you. I'm sure they're not ALL underhanded and mean spirited like YOU.
you shouldn't have made that c-word comment on MSNBC
she lost, so who cares. it's a freakin' beauty pagent, so who cares. and politically correct is subjective. i don't agree with her. whatever. she comes off like a vapid shell of a person, but, who cares?
stop giving her air time. her 15 minutes has been way too long.
