For the older folks here, this kinda reminds me of the Cheryl Tiegs Sports Illustrated transparent swimsuit controversy in the 70's. She posed for most of an hour in a wet swimsuit you could see through and then claimed she didn't know what everyone was photographing. It didn't fly then, and most likely Miss California's claims won't fly now either. Like she doesn't know what's going on while she's posing, and where the photogs is pointing the camera?

I always choose to believe people are telling the truth until they prove they shouldn't be trusted. As more and more comes out it doesn't look like she was being completely truthful.

And I agree with the two-sided tape comment. If you don't want to accidentally expose yourself there are things that one can do to make sure that doesn't happen.

Crow is hard to digest, but it seems it's getting harder and harder for folks these days in all walks of life to step up to the plate and eat their share when necessary.

With that being said personally I think it's a pretty cheap move to purposefully put photos out there to make her look even worse than what others were making her out to be in the first place and then making money on it. Does not speak well to our society, but not surprising either.

The firestorm started when she gave a truthful answer to a rather unfair question at the pageant. If she'd lied then, she probably would have won the top prize, although I imagine those photos would have come out in that case, too.
