    OOoooh! I saw this last night, but was afraid to start a new topic cause the other was was locked. But this is the article I read

    http://gaystarnews.com/article/miss-...troversy030412

    UPDATE: Trump contacted TMZ.com late Tuesday and made clear Talackova would be able to compete in the Miss Universe pageant if she were to win Miss Canada.

    'We go by the law, she can compete if she wants to,' Trump said. 'The law of Canada is very clear and the law of the United States is very clear.'

    But he added there would be 'no apology whatsoever' to the beauty queen.

    'Frankly, if she competes that's wonderful and if she doesn't compete - maybe she thinks she can't win - that's fine also. I couldn't care less.'
    That guy is such a *prick!!!!* On one hand at first I was like...screw him and his fucking pageant! But on the other, she has to get through that one to make it to the Miss Universe. Very interesting though that the rules of the competition should follow the law. And by law, she *is* a woman, and will be recognized as such in all other pageants where by law and contest rules, she qualifies.

    Did I mention Donald is a prick??

    To be fair it was live and she was probably nervous, also it was probably something that wasn't planned in advance.

    I despise Trump big time. He's one of those celebs I turn the channel when I see. Ironically the other celeb who brings out such hate is Rosie O'Donnell who he's fighting with.

    My opinion about this is what I have stated and that is she lied. Now if the transgendered issues wasn't mentioned, she applied and was rejected then yes she would have a case. However, she lied and no matter how discriminatory it was, the fact she lied "trumped" it all.

    I still wonder what would have happened if an older woman or a woman who was married or had a kid went through this. Probably no attention at all. In fact there have been women disqualified for this and not a peep.

    http://www.tmz.com/person/jenna-talackova/

    This one reads" Hotel guests OUTRAGED over bikini shoot".

    "Problem is ... the pool at the Wilshire is located on the roof -- right beside the "Roof on Wilshire" restaurant -- and diners weren't too pleased when Jenna stripped down to a bikini right in front of them, posing for shots."

    "We're told diners complained -- and the restaurant staff asked Jenna and her crew to pack it in, insisting the shoot was interfering with business. On top of that, we're told Jenna also failed to get permission from the hotel to shoot in a public area."

    The video at the bottom of this link is Donald Trump saying " he could care less". I think he's enjoy the media attention and the financial bump this attention has created.

    What doesn't make sense is that after he's said sure go ahead and compete, why is Talackova saying Trump is not being clear?

    I did notice the pre-written commentary that Talakcova was struggling to get through. It was painful to watch.

    Well we all know that people who perform in front of people are never nervous and are always ready for unrehearsed interviews O_o

    She's now just an attention media whore, just like her nutso lawyer Gloria Allred (who never met a camera she didn't like).

    I'm sure they chose the location for maximum, uh, visibility. And it's not the restaurant -- that hotel's pool is an exhibitionist's dream. It puts you about 300 ft in the air, on top of the hotel, and surrounded by L.A. office buildings in mid-town.

    They went looking for attention.

    If they wanted to be discreet -- and had some measure of class -- they would have booked her into the real Wilshire, which is the Beverly Wilshire in Beverly Hills. But then of course, nobody would have noticed her, since at the better hotels, discretion is part of what you pay for.
