Hannity, who wrote the foreword to Prejean’s new memoir, “Still Standing,” talks a bit about the sex tape rumors, which Prejean calls “the biggest mistake of my life.”

The Carrie Prejean sex tape video came into play during Prejean’s settlement negotiations with Miss California USA Pageant officials (she was looking to gain more than a million dollars).

The lawyer for the pageant showed the Carrie Prejean video, a solo act of Prejean, well… you know… and voila! Prejean walked away from the negotiations with nothing from the settlement.

TMZ.com apparently had the video some months ago, calling it “extremely graphic” and choosing not to post it because “it was so racy.”

Carrie Prejean’s tell-all book will be available next week. Doesn’t everyone have a book these days??

Miss Malibu Tami Farrell will serve as replacement to the fired Carrie Prejean.

So, why did Donald Trump finally fire the controversial Miss California?

Trump released this 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 her other interests.”

Effective immediately, Miss Malibu Tami Farrell, the first runner-up to Carrie Prejean in the Miss California USA competition, takes the crown.

Did the Miss America 2008 pageant turn the institution on its ear and deliver a new competition? Well, they at least lightened things up and did away with the poufy hairdos, so that’s a start. Of course, the TLC reality show “Miss America: Reality Check” did help each contestant makeover their old-fashioned pageant look.

Here is a Miss America 2008 video clip, crowning Miss Michigan, Kirsten Haglund the winner:

And just for fun, a video clip from “Miss America: Reality Check.”

Hosted by Michael Urie (who plays snarky Marc St. James on “Ugly Betty), “Miss America: Reality Check” takes a behind-the-scenes look at the 52 Miss America contestants as they live together in an L.A. Mansion and (according to the TLC press release) “participate in an intense set of events and challenges designed to prepare them for the final event.”
