Vanessa Williams Is Over Nudie Beauty Scandals

Vanessa Williams was pressured into resigning her Miss America post in 1984 for the same thing Miss California just got away with -- gettin' nekkid on camera -- so we figured she'd be ticked Carrie Prejean kept her crown....

The original nudie beauty queen stonewalled us, but if you watch the clip, you probably have a pretty good idea what she really thinks.

16. Ummm, okay, I just watched the clip and she simply looks blase and annoyed. You can't read anything into her expression. Wishful thinking and nice attempt to create drama where there isn't any, TMZ.

18. Um, Vanessa's picks may be more graphic, but at least she didn't lie about it. She gave up her crown gracefully -- besides you know that skank ho has more bones in her closet that have not surfaced yet. and i'm sure Vanessa had a lot to say about miss. california, but she is too much of a lady to say it publicly. -- watching Larry King now, DONALD IS A MEDIA WHORE!

19. What kind of crack are you guys smoking? She was licking another chick's spread eagle crack. That is not the same thing. Also, the magazine she appeared in had an underage centerfold that month (Tracy Lords). If you try to purchase a copy of it now you could get arrested in some states. Not exactly the same thing you gay lovers

20. Vanessa Williams and Carrie Prejean aren't even in the same class! VW paid her dues and yes, her pics were way more graphic...but she handled all of it w/grace and class. Plus, i think time has told the tale that VW is incredibly talented, beautiful and successful. Who could wish her ill will? She turned in HER crown. CP is a LIAR, has violated her contract, lied about her pics, LIED about a "wind blew her top open"....she's such an idiot. i'm sure history will remember her as a liar who blew whomever she had to to keep her crown.

21. WOW! Vanessa is GORGEOUS! She puts these 20 year olds to shame!

22. I challenge TMZ to print the photos of Vanessa Williams beside those of Carrie Prejean, unedited, and let someone who's not BIASED decide if they're the same thing. Cuz they're not! TMZ is starting to get annoying. It's too bad, it used to be entertaining.

23. NOT the same thing at all -- the Wiliiams photos were extremely racy, and even by today's standards would be considered somewhat scandalous (whereas the Prejean photos are pretty mild). You guys need to let this story go. I think what really kills you is that NOBODY knows or cares who won Miss USA, but EVERYONE knows who Carrie Prejean is. Wait -- you are just contributing to her success and publicity, you dumbasses! Just let it go.

24. TMZ - why do you keep doing this? Vanessa had XXX pictures out there. Carrie has Miley Cyrus pictures out there. Carrie's weren't ever published by her own consent. Carrie's were bought by people trying to make a buck. Why not show Shanna's - that role model . It's only fair if you are going to critisize Carrie every day. Show who's the one of the one's leading the lynching. Shanna has no room to talk. Vanessa is successful today. Shanna, is trailer park style.

25. Do you have the stupidest people working for you or what?

At least edit the videos.

26.
I really like Vanessa and think she has come a long way. She is a good actress and has a beautiful voice....so let's not forget she is talented besides being very beautiful.

However, I remember those pics and they were disgusting. I remember them in Hustler Magazine and in one of the pics she was totally nude licking the booty crack of another nude woman.
She apologized and totally owned up to what she did in her press conference.

So someone showing their boob is a benign thing in comparison to Vanessa's pics.

Vanessa did turn lemons into lemonade and went on to record songs, and be in movies.

NOTE TO ALL MODELS AND/OR PAGEANT GIRLS - BE PREPARED IF YOU BECOME FAMOUS ONE DAY, EVEN IF IT IS FOR 15 MINUTES - EVERYTHING YOU HAVE EVER DONE, AND PICTURE THAT WAS EVER TAKEN OF YOU WILL BE PULLED OUT AND SOMEBODY WILL SELL IT TO MAKE MONEY. REMEMBER - NO ONE HAS YOUR BEST INTERESTS AT HEART - EXCEPT YOU - SO WATCH WHAT YOU DO BECAUSE IT WILL COME BACK AND BITE YOU LATER BECAUSE SOMEONE IS GOING TO USE IT TO MAKE THEMSELVES SOME MONEY!!!

27. I just saw Vanessa's Penthouse pics -- THEY ARE NOT THAT BAD PEOPLE -- The ones where she is posing with the other woman looked staged for artist drawing purposes - like when Penthouse published Madonna's nude photos, they were pictures she was taking for art. In the art world, the human body is a work of art, and many models pose nude for art. Look at the pictures again, dumb asses, before you judge!!

28. Why didn't she OR her escort just say, "oh fk off you fkn QUEER, since ALL TMZ paps sound EXTREMELY GAY.

29. In her pictures, Vanessa was having oral sex with a woman. That is not the same as topless pictures.
