Shanna Moakler Resigns Over Miss California Controversy
That little “miscommunication” problem between Miss California codirector Shanna Moakler and crown-holder Carrie Prejean was clearly not as done a deal as Donald Trump would have liked us to believe.
Just one day after the Donald dismissed Moakler’s urgings to strip Prejean of her Miss California title and announced that the controversial beauty queen would remain the face of the Golden State, Moakler has resigned as the organization’s co-executive director.
“Since the press conference yesterday, I had a chance to think about what has taken place, and I feel that at this time it is in my best interest to resign from the Miss California USA organization,” Moakler said in a statement this morning.
“I cannot with a clear conscious [sic] move forward supporting and promoting the Miss Universe Organization when I no longer believe in it, or the contracts I signed committing myself as a youth.”
Those would be the same contracts, Moakler has long asserted, that Prejean violated.
