Prejean Defends Sex Tape

Dethroned former Miss California CARRIE PREJEAN has defended the sex tape she made as a teenager, insisting she has learned from her mistake.

The footage leaked onto the internet earlier this month (Nov09) and was said to feature the blonde beauty “doing very graphic things to her body.”

Prejean admits the recording is real and takes “complete responsibility” for the tape she filmed aged 17.

She tells U.S. talk show host Larry King, “There’s a video out there of me that I sent to my boyfriend at the time. And it was for private use. But does that justify my actions? No. And I take complete responsibility for the decisions that I made when I was a teenager. And I’ve learned a lot from it.

“It’s so important to realise that nothing is private anymore. I’m not perfect, and I’ve made mistakes, and I have learned from it. But I think that the biggest thing is that you own up to it, you take responsibility, and you just move forward.”
