'Still Standing': Carrie Prejean shares her moral high ground on The View


"Still Standing: The Untold Story of my Fight Against Gossip, Hate,
and Political Attacks" by Carrie Prejean  Credit: Carrie Prejean

With a book to promote, and an opinion to share, California beauty queen, Carrie Prejean dropped by for a chat with the women of The View, where she stated that making a sex tape "was the biggest mistake of my life."

While standing her moral ground on the set of "The View," Barbara Walters asked her about the other side of the scandal, about how recently released topless photos and a sex tape have emerged, and how this comes into play. 

Ms. Prejean defended her behavior stating that she "takes full responsibility for her actions" (making the sex tape), but that she was young (17 years old), trusted her boyfriend and never thought it would get out.  

Her new book, Still Standing: The Untold Story of My Fight Against Gossip, Hate, and Political Attacks describes her experience as Miss California: 

She tells of how she felt her world crashing down around her when she stated her opinion on gay marriage. Carrie Prejean had no idea, when she walked down the stage to face her final question before the selection and crowning of Miss USA, that her hopes, dreams, and reputation were about to come crashing down around her under a torrent of media attacks.

Her crime? To have answered honestly that for her—and for most Americans—marriage is defined as a sacred bond between one man and one woman. For the thought crime of saying this, Carrie Prejean went from being the likely winner of the Miss USA competition to being the certain loser. But worse, she would be subjected to a campaign of vilification, verbal abuse, and betrayal that did not even end with her being stripped of her title of Miss California.

Critics have questioned her sincerity of Christian values and moral character with the emergence of topless photos and a sex tape that she made for an ex-boyfriend.

Consider yourself warned: If you have a sex tape, destroy it, please.  Perhaps Dr. Drew could do a sex tape rehab next time round.
