2007,” said Paula M. Shugart, president of the Miss Universe Organization, which owns the Miss USA pageant, according to the Associated Press.
“The pictures were disgusting,” Miss USA co-owner Donald Trump told Larry King on CNN Thursday night. “These pictures were pretty far out there and that is not representative of Miss USA. We had no choice but to terminate her.”
It seems Katie was doing the same underage partying Miss USA Tara Conner did which almost costs her the crown. And now, Katie Rees wants a special Christmas present from Donald Trump: a second chance. I guess Donald Trump does not have much choice but to grant Katie the second chance since the billionaire granted the same wish to Tara Conner or else Donald will be known as the guy who practiced double standard when it comes to beauty queens.
Earlier, Donald Trump announced Miss USA Tara Conner, who had come under criticism amid
rumors she had been frequenting bars while underage, will be allowed to keep her title. “I’ve always been a believer in second chances,” Trump, who owns the Miss Universe Organization with NBC said. Trump later said Conner would be entering rehab.
Conner won the title in April and has been living in New York. Recent media accounts of heavy drinking brought a storm of criticism since she was underage at the time. In a tear-choked voice, Conner said, “In no way did I think it would be possible for a second chance to be given to me.” Turning to Trump, she said, “You’ll never know what this means to me, and I swear I will not let you down.”
