Melbourne
(ANI):
The
legal
spat
between
former
Miss
California
Carrie
Prejean
and
pageant
officials
has
come
to
an
end
after
both
the
parties
reached
a
confidential
settlement.
Prejean
and
the
organisers
issued
a
joint
statement
saying
they
"wish
each
other
the
best
in
their
future
endeavours."
According
to
TMZ,
the
22-year-old
sought
more
than
a
million
dollars
during
her
settlement
negotiations
until
the
lawyer
for
the
pageant
showed
her
a
XXX
sex
tape,
featuring
her
as
the
protagonist,
reports
the
Daily
Telegraph.
The
beauty
was
said
to
have
taken
about
15
seconds
to
take
back
her
demands
and
agree
to
a
100,000-dollar
payout.
The
entire
amount
reportedly
bares
the
cost
of
her
attorneys
and
leaves
her
empty
handed.
Prejean
was
dethroned
after
being
caught
up
in
a
controversy
involving
her
open
opposition
to
gay
marriage
and
a
nude
photo
shoot.
She
slapped
the
state
organization
with
a
lawsuit
alleging
she
lost
her
title
over
her
religious
beliefs.
The
pageant
accused
her
of
missing
events
and
filed
a
countersuit.
