Earlier Trump had let Carrie Prejean slide in terms of the semi-nude photos that appeared on the Internet. He also let her slide in terms of making appearances without the permission of the Miss California organization. However, he couldn't ignore the fact that she wasn't making the appearances she was supposed to make.
The Miss California Organization said, in a statement to Access Hollywood:
“The Miss California USA Organization, in conjunction with the Miss Universe Organization and with the blessing of its owner, Mr. Donald J. Trump, announced today the termination of Carrie Prejean as Miss California USA 2009, citing continued breach of contract issues."
Trump added the following in a statement:
“I told Carrie she needed to get back to work and honor her contract with the Miss California USA Organization and I gave her the opportunity to do so. Unfortunately it just doesn’t look like it is going to happen and I offered Keith my full support in making this decision. Carrie is a beautiful young woman and I wish her well as she pursues other interests.”
Miss Malibu Tami Farrell, who was the Miss California first runner-up, is now Miss California.
