Former Miss California Carrie Prejean told an audience of conservatives
in Washington, D.C., on Friday that her comments against marriage
equality at the 2009 Miss USA pageant in April were the result of
divine intervention.

Prejean, who lost her Miss California crown but apparently not her halo in the uproar following her statement that marriage should be between a man and a woman, addressed attendees at the Value Voters Summit, according to Politico.com.

“I’m so proud of the answer that I gave,” she said on Friday. “God chose me for that moment.”
