Carrie Prejean Says Answer to Gay Marriage Question Cost Her Miss USA Crown
Miss California is not backing down from the answer regarding gay marriage she gave on Sunday night’s Miss USA telecast.
Carrie Prejean told FOXNews.com that she had “no regrets” and was happy with the answer she gave when a Miss USA judge, the gossip blogger Perez Hilton, asked about her stance on same-sex marriage.
“I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman,” she said on the live broadcast. “No offense to anybody out there, but that’s how I was raised.”
YOU DECIDE: Did Miss California’s answer cost her the crown?
One person who was offended was Keith Lewis, co-director the Miss California competition, which Prejean won to make it into the Miss USA pageant. Lewis told FOXNews.com that he was “saddened” by Prejean’s statement.
“I am personally … hurt that Miss California believes marriage rights belong only to a man and a woman,” said Lewis in a statement.
