PENNSYLVANIA - June 6, 2012 (WPVI) -- Miss Pennsylvania is resigning from her post, just days after the Miss USA Pageant took place.

Sheena Monnin wrote on her Facebook page that she turned in her crown, because the pageant was "fraudulent, lacking in morals, inconsistent, and in many ways trashy."

Monnin later claimed another contestant had seen a list of the top 5 finishers, before the Miss USA show even started.

Good for her. Time to make a stand.

maybe she’ll run for office, or call Donald and ask for job on the pageant, one can hope. Make a Diffence, Stand Up America!!

[IbJensen]

Hooray for a GOOD young American miss!

[donozark]

Actually, she resigned from her position so she can spend more time with me...

[napscoordinator]

Hopefully she will return all the money and prizes she received as well.

"fraudulent, lacking in morals, inconsistent, and in many ways trashy."

uhhhh....hate to be the one throwing cold water, but did none of that occur to you BEFORE you decided to enter a beauty paegent?

[Uncle Slayton]

There must be a “home video” or some naked pictures of her.

[netmilsmom]

They sgn a contract. If she resigns then she must return everything.

[Vendome]

She swore she’d stop calling me if she won.

Now I don’t know...

[Bronco_Buster_FweetHyagh]

I will never ever release my home videos and pictures with her, so don’t blame it on me.

[bramps]

As long as it’s not because she’s a man or a cannibal.

[MulberryDraw]

...according to organizers the beauty queen was upset over the decision to allow transgender contestants to enter.

more fairness and equality...

[SeaHawkFan]

They sign a contract. If she resigns then she must return everything.

If there is fraud involved in the contest, I doubt the Miss USA Pageant is going to try to get anything back. In fact, she might have quite a counterclaim for all the money she spent related to the contest.

[detective]

Gee, she says a beauty contest is fake. I can’t believe it. Next they will be saying professional wrestling is fixed.

[who knows what evil?]

Leave her alone, Trump. Jerk.

[TribalPrincess2U]

I suspect most everything is this way.

Good for her for coming to her senses.

[TigerClaws]

Why is some deviant type even judging WOMEN in a beauty contest?

Every pageant seems to come down to some PC litmus test question and only if someone is in favor of the extreme left... they get the boot.

Any doubt Miss America would have lost if she’d said this was a pageant for WOMEN ONLY, not freaks?

[Shelayne]

According to the article, the decision to allow a transexual into the Miss Universe Pageant (an extension of Miss USA) did not sit well with this young lady. Good for her.

If this is the case, I expect a thorough trashing of her is forthcoming.

Miss Rhode Island (winner)

Miss Pennsylvania (one of the losers)

Compare ! ... Miss PA = sour grapes! Miss Rhode Island looks fresh !!

This article has been rewritten and added to in the last few minutes. "It originally ended with Miss Rhode Island Olivia Culpo was crowned the winner of the Miss USA pageant." I thought "And why is that important and as an asterisk to the article which doesn't really go into detail?" The back story is there was a question regarding transgenders being allowed to compete with women. Can't get to the original article.
