Another Miss USA Scandal??? Stripping???
Recently crowned Miss USA 2010 Rima Fakih is getting a lot of attention for her stage talent. Hours after Fakih’s pageant win, photos surfaced of the 24-year-old beauty competing in a radio station stripping contest, which she reportedly won.
Detroit’s Mojo in the Morning claims Fakih won their Stripper 101 contest in 2007. If the rumors are true, Fakih joins a long list of pageant winners involved in embarrassing scandals, including:
• Ashley Harder turned in the Miss USA crown in 2007 when she became pregnant;
• Leona Gage was Miss USA 1957 for a while – until officials learned she was not only three years younger than she claimed, but was married twice and had two children;
• Tara Connor, Miss USA 2006, tested positive for cocaine and was rumored to have brought men into her Trump Place apartment against pageant regulations;
• Vanessa Williams, Miss America 1983, resigned when Penthouse published pictures taken years earlier of Williams and another woman in compromising positions;
• Miss California 2009 Carrie Prejean was criticized after topless photos she’d taken surfaced.
