Prejean Nabs Book Deal



It didn't take long -- ex-Miss California Carrie Prejean has nabbed a book deal, reports the Associated Press.

Prejean, stripped of her Miss California crown and responsibilities last month, will publish a memoir called Still Standing from Regnery Publishing, a conservative publishing house that has released books by Newt Gingrich and Ann Coulter.

Prejean believes she was fired because she vocally opposed same-sex marriage after Miss USA judge Perez Hilton asked her about the subject during the April competition in Las Vegas. The San Diego native ended up taking second place in the competition.

California pageant executive director Keith Lewis said Prejean was actually relieved of her responsibilities because she blew off Miss USA events to speak out against gay marriage at unsanctioned appearances.

    (To the tune of "I'm Still Standing", Elton John) She should know just what it's like Her heart like winter freezes just like ice And there's a whole d@mn country saying "we don't care" She's another fake, just like her plastic b00bies there And we told this fool she didn't win Well look at her, she's coming back again She's got a thing for love but it can't be gay Let's hope she talks a little while, and finally fades away Don't you know she's still talking louder than she ever did Looking like a hypocrite, whining like a little kid She's still talking after all this time Listening to right-wing Christians makes me want to lose my mind She's still talking yeah yeah yeah She's still talking yeah yeah yeah Once she thought that she would win But intolerance is a mighty sin The mean ol' media cut her down And if her life was just a circus she'd be a clown by now Don't you know she's still talking louder than she ever did Looking like a clueless ditz,

    I'm betting that insidious weasel and wearer of cheap trash fashion keith lewis buys a copy, and then has the bad taste to ask Prejean for an autograph to boot! Ditto overdone fatso Moekler and that combed over silver spoon Daddy made me rich knucklehead Trump! Yeah, there'll be a lot of them gay agenda haters lining up and Barnes and Nobles too, masquerading as heteros! But they'll stand out like a sore thumb, as you can always tell by the way they walk! HA! That's funny!

    @Joe Reid: Obviously some people care. Knock it off with the lame "who cares?" comments. If you don't care, then go away.

    The trees aren't "Still Standing". She's what, twenty-something, and she's no incredibly impressive sportsperson or actor, how long will this book be? Two pages, three, "Down with the gays." Ah, Four words long, maybe not so much of a waste of paper.

    Still Standing? The only things Carrie Prejean stands for is bigotry, hatred and ignorance.

    No one should post any comment about PJR stupidity. The best way to get rid of this loser is by ignoring him altogether.
