Because beauty pageant drama absolutely counts as a pop culture topic, I would like to take this week to update my readers on what has basically become one of the most overrated "scandals" in beauty pageant history.Carrie Prejean, a contestant for Miss USA 2009, came shooting into the spotlight when judge Perez Hilton asked her whether she felt every U.S. state should legalize gay marriage. Prejean's response: "I think it's great that Americans are able to choose one way or the other. We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage. And, you know what, in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman, no offense to anybody out there. But that's how I was raised and I believe that it should be between a man and a woman."

Needless to say, the media exploded. Some people attacked her for being a bigot, others defended her for expressing her faith and her right to believe whatever she wanted. She gained instant fame-though she lost the Miss USA pageant.

Of course, with instant fame comes instant scandal, and Prejean was no exception.

Despite her projected image as a wholesome girl next door, over the last few months, a total of 30 (thirty!) nude photos and 8 (eight!!!) sex tapes of Prejean have surfaced.

When the first sex tape showed up-recorded, by the way, by Prejean herself when she was still underage-she called it the "biggest mistake of her life." Since then, RadarOnline has uncovered seven more "biggest mistakes of her life," all of them solo performances, just like the one sex tape that the religious beauty queen has admitted to. And there are 30 photos of Prejean, most with her topless, some showing everything, and most taken by Prejean using her reflection in a mirror.

In her new book, Still Standing, Prejean writes, "God gave us our bodies, and it's perfectly right that we use them in ways where we can give glory to God by making our bodies, our temples of the Holy Spirit, strong and fast."

Thanking God for a great body is one thing, but if you're going to profess to be the good girl, Carrie, you might want to stop taking naked videos of yourself and letting them get leaked to the media. Just a hint.
