"You're Not Fired": Apparently Doing Cocaine Is Okay With "The Donald."
Yes, I agree that forgiveness is important. And I think that everyone deserves the opportunity to get another chance after they make a mistake; because we ALL make mistakes. However, I really feel Miss USA, Tara Conner, should have been fired by Donald Trump.
For those of you out of the "loop" on this story, Miss USA (Tara Conner) was seen out in NYC a few weeks ago drinking (she was under-age at the time) and making out with another female pageant winner. Also, she allegedly tested positive for cocaine and has allegedly snuck males into her apartment at Trump Plaza.
Now, with the exception of the cocaine use, one could "trump" all of Conner's wild antics up to typical "youth." But, it needs to be kept in mind that this is Miss USA. And Miss USA is chosen to be a role model for many young women in America. Miss USA has to set an example and (from what I understand) is required to sign some kind of "morality" agreement.
So the under-age drinking (which most of us did) and the public display of affections are not appropriate for Miss USA. And the cocaine use, DEFINITELY not okay.
She should be fired. I am totally fine with Donald Trump kindly sending her off to rehab, but she should still be fired.
When you choose to step into the public limelight (as a celebrity, politician, or even Miss USA) you need to realize you will be watched closely. And whether you like it or not, people are going to criticize you. And to some extent, you are a role model in the public eye. So be prepared to have people try to knock you down.
And as for the Miss USA role, she chose to enter the pageant. She chose to accept the crown when she won. She chose to accept the responsibilities that come with it. She chose to not hold up her end of the deal. She should be tossed out.
But hey... Mr. Trump was probably thinking all about ratings. And his pageants have not been performing well in the ratings on TV for many years. This little incident may have been what was needed to pump some "fire" back into this event.
The next Miss USA could be a "bad girl" too. And we all like to watch bad and wild girls go crazy on TV!
Instead of the standard interview questions asked of the finalists, the hosts next year will ask each contestant to snort a line, do a shot and kiss another female contestant. Whoever does it the fastest gets the most points for that category.
