Miss Washington -- One Bad Apple!

Posted Jul 9th 2008 5:30PM by TMZ Staff

Miss Washington 2007 might wanna take the crown off before flipping off the camera, getting her Beer Pong on and making suggestive oral sex gang signs.

Elyse Umemoto, who was the second runner-up in this year's Miss America pageant, ran on a platform promoting diversity and women's empowerment. The Evergreen State must be so proud.

Miss Washington Executive Field Director Mike Miller tells TMZ the organization is "embarrassed," and issued this lengthy statement.

16. What is the point of these pageants? These vapid phonies just say whatever they think will make them "look" good, obviously they are not the least bit sincere. Why not just market them as the dog shows they are instead of trying to make the contestants and format seem commendable or worthwhile? By dog show I merely mean basing it (HONESTLY and openly) on looks alone.

17. You've got to be kidding. This is a scandal? Please. 1st of all she's not even wearing her crown in most of the photos. According to the pag. info - she's 23 - old enough to drink. who even cares? I am LMAO at the fact that TMZ 1. considers it scandalous enough for posting 2. gives a rip about a pageant winner

18. Face it, young women today are lacking morals, intelligence and CLASS. This chick is a fine example.

19. Lovely. I'm all for young people having fun and being cool, but this skanky girl behavior is just trash. She has her crown on for God's sake. I'm not a big fan of pageants, but if she wants to be a tough girl, she shouldn't try to be Miss America. Being cheap isn't empowerment, it's just stupid. You can be edgy and different without being a sleaze.

20. hey youth of america...yeah she's young, and is having fun and is human...but beauty queens are role models for young girls, if she wants to act this way then she needs to take off the crown. if she wants to carry on this way then maybe a role in Girls Gone Wild should be her career calling and not wearing a crown. Obviously she doesn't care for her crown anyway, one of her friends is modeling it in one photo. I agree with the other poster that said the committee not taking her crown is whimping out...many have lost theirs over stuff equal to this...so why is she an exception?

22. Wow, and leave it to TMZ to not only post these pictures, but call the field director! Some day with a little luck the TMZ goons will get caught in the camera and pay the price for it. What comes around...

23. Shocking a young girl partying having fun with friends.

24. All of the comments about removing her crown are probably coming from a bunch of fat old hags with nothing better to do than sit behind their computers eating their donuts and getting fatter, while making themselves feel better by ripping on beautiful young women. BTW~why isn't anyone talking about any of the good this yound lady did? Because it doesn't serve their purposes.

25. she's a phoney. she's scamming the pageant and making a fool of us. if she's the best this pageant can do -- then just close the whole thing down. what a waste!

26. I agree that she is a representative and should be held to higher standards. She was made aware of her obligations before she signed up for the pagent and she has disregarded the standards of the pagent. She should have her crown taken away. She quite clearly is either hanging around with the wrong people or is easily influenced, either way she is no role model or represetative for the country I live in.

27.

28. The bitch should be de-crowned. What a whore. I guess not much is going on up in Washington that they think they need to keep this bitch.......I say we take a vote through the TMZ family, after all we are the pulse of the nation, and see if she's "deal or dud".
I vote DUD!!!!!!!!

29. There is nothing wrong with a young girl having fun...what you kids don't understand is when you are reresenting a state or country, you don't do it in front of a camera, TIA!

Posted at 9:14AM on Jul 9th 2008 by Hello!

30. HAHA! I think its funny-I mean she is a total dumbass for doing that, but I don't think that anyone has thought beauty queens were scientists.
