Carrie Prejean believes she has been "attacked."

Former Miss California Carrie Prejean is now using semantics to convince everyone that her reported "sex tape," the one that cost her a lawsuit with pageant production company K2, is not actually a sex tape. Why? As Prejean told "The Today Show" on Tuesday morning, "You can call [the tape] whatever you want to call it...I was not having sex in the video...it was me by myself." She says that the video came out after she sent it to her boyfriend as a teenager.

She says that she regrets the decision to make the tape, but feels that it is yet another way that the media is trying to attack her for her transgressions. Much of the controversy surrounding Prejean began when she took a stance against gay marriage at the 2009 Miss USA pageant, and much of the backlash against her has been a result of that.

Prejean also told Meredith Viera that if she was a man, that this wouldn't be a problem. She claims to have been "Sarah Palin-ized," referring to the former Alaska Governor who has been criticized numerous times by the media for her stances on everything from gay marriage to evolution in schools.

At the end of the interview, Prejean drops one final bombshell is saying that pageant owner Donald Trump actually divided up the girls before the telecast into the ones he thought were attractive and the ones he felt were not.
