Miss California Carrie Prejean, blasted by a Miss USA contest judge because she opposes gay marriage, may have grounds for a discrimination lawsuit herself against the Miss USA pageant, a legal analyst says.
"If she really feels some tremendous stress as a result of losing and I'm certain she's probably devastated from what happened to her she can articulate a viable claim for monetary compensation for psychic injury," said FOX News legal analyst Mercedes Colwin.
Prejean fielded a question during Sunday night's pageant from celebrity blogger Perez Hilton about whether every state should legalize same-sex marriage. Prejean replied that she is opposed to gay marriage, and her answer may have cost her the crown. She finished second to Miss North Carolina Kristen Dalton.
"She lost it because of that question," Hilton said Monday. "She was definitely the front-runner before that."

If she can she should sue his butt off! He asked the question. She gave an honest answer.
