A Queen in a Mess!

This video shows how bad at communicating a person can be. During ten minutes of an interview, Carrie Prejean managed to not answer some questions The View asked her. First of all I have to say that I find it ironic that her and Sarah Palin are idolized for their Christian values, but both managed to break the rules they promote.

Instead of sitting here  judging Carrie Prejean, I would like to reflect in what would I do if I was her? She has to defend herself from the sex tape and naked pictures that are floating around, but at the same time has to keep her opinion about same-sex marriage the same. She is in a mess! It seems now that she is using her book to do clean her image from the evil gays that are now attacking her and trying to get dirt about her from her ex-boyfriends; and evil Christians who are judging her and not understanding that she is just a victim of a male-dominated society that expects women to be a sexual object.

She is probably tired of the same kind of interviews, but she really needs to be less aggressive. Although acting as a victim works well for her, and saying that she takes full responsibility for the tape is good; she should focus on answering the questions asked instead of attacking her interviewers. Whenever she felt that the questions were too charged for her, she instantly played the victim card, or the read-it-in-my-book ad. It seemed like she was more interested in selling copies of her book rather than cleaning her image. Maybe that is why she wrote the book in the first place: because she is not able to simply answer a question about the reasons of her behavior without flipping out. She would look better if she controlled herself better.

Her situation is very controversial, and she is clearly getting a lot of attention. It seems, to me, that she is very concerned in promoting her book rather than doing things right. Her answers are making her look even worse. I definitely wouldn’t want my sister to think of her as a role model.
