This was actually covered by Gawker, and (I think) Fleshbot, a few days back- it was initially thought to be two Miss Universe contestants (Gawker's Azaria Jagger somewhat cynically suggests that it was because of the Western assumption that all Asians look alike), but it transpires that it was actually between Ayoung-Chee, her boyfriend, and a friend.
Someone needs to take on the responsibility of telling beauty queens that it is ok to say 'no thanks' to a request to digitally capture the sexytimes. They may not know. Such as.
What is it with pageants and porn? Why don't they just cut to the chase and replace the "talent" section with "sex tapes".
Hey, it'd make them more interesting. People might actually watch them then!
I originally read "assignation" as "assassination" and was thinking there was some strange real-life Zoolander thing happening on the pageant circuits that I'd missed. Sex tape makes more sense.
At least two out of three of Hef's old girlfriends were Miss Hawaiian Tropics. It's not surprising. Pageants kinda center around the same idea that porn/sex tapes/whatever you wanna call it do.
Ugh, can't we have something more creative than a threesome. If people are going to keep releasing sex tapes for publicity, I'm going to expect them to up their game. Naked twister, anyone?
@mfnher: You know this is a good point. The spate of Beauty Queen Sex tapes could glut the market and create demand for more specialized or higher quality sex tapes. Capitalism!
Prejean claims she was 17. If she is telling the truth (for a change) then she committed a felony. It is a violation of child porn laws to create or distribute pornographic material involving minors. There is no loophole for minors who film themselves.
Earlier this year several teenage girls in Akron, Ohio were arrested for doing exactly what Prejean did. The point wasn't to send them to Leavenworth, but to inform the public that this is a serious offense. As we've seen, these images get passed around, and they often wind up in the hands of predators.
Prosecuting Preajean would go a long way toward combatting ignorance about this issue. Besides, she seems to be a good candidate for a lengthy period of community service. #sextapes

@AfroJezeBella: Make him wear the tiara!
@futuremouse: I'm sensing an increase in production value. There will be multiple camera shots and a craft services table.

How the hell does this make her a hypocrite?
This stinks of gleefully blaming the victim because you don't like her. She didn't release that fucking tape, some jerkwad betrayed her trust.
Her odious opinions do not make this magically ok. #sextapes
