Pageantry

Beauty queen stereotypes be damned -- because the new Miss USA Olivia Culpo pulled a Hilary Swank the night she took the crown, and celebrated by chowing down on a CHEESEBURGER!

The freshly crowned Miss USA tells TMZ she wasn't able to eat for several hours following the pageant in Las Vegas Sunday night. So, when 2 am rolled around she did what everyone else does in Vegas ... ROOM SERVICE!!!

Olivia tells us she ordered a cheeseburger feast up to her Planet Hollywood Hotel room -- complete with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and yes ... (gasp) a side of fries. Sorry guys, no shake.

Olivia admits devouring the entire burger, but insists she only ate "a few fries."

Back in 2005, Hilary Swank famously chowed down on Astro Burger hours after she won an Oscar.

Gotta love skinny chicks who can stuff their faces ... unless you're fat.

HOT CHICK JUSTICE -- former Miss Arizona Teen USA Tori Vance has officially been charged with DUI after her boozy arrest earlier last month.

TMZ broke the story ... Tori was pulled over two weeks ago in Hollywood after making an illegal u-ey. According to law enforcement, Tori showed signs of intoxication when cops approached her vehicle, so they gave her a field sobriety test ... which Tori flunked.

Tori was placed under arrest and taken to the cop shop, where she was booked for DUI.

18-year-old Tori now faces two counts of DUI and faces up to six months in jail if convicted. And since she's underage, she could lose her license for a year.

After all the hoopla to compete, transgender beauty queen Jenna Talackova LOST the title of Miss Universe Canada ... but DID manage to win something else -- Miss Congeniality.

Talackova took the stage Saturday night in Toronto -- along with 61 other Canadian women -- as the first transgender to compete in the Miss Universe beauty competition ... but was axed after the top 12.

If you recall ... the 23-year-old fought tooth and nail just to be allowed in the competition after it was discovered she was not a "natural born female" and underwent a sex-change operation 4 years ago.

Although she didn't make it past the semi-finals, Talackova took home a different prize ... she was one of four women to be named Miss Congeniality.

The real crown went to 26-year old Sahar Biniaz.

Disgraced former Miss USA Rima Fakih has managed to avoid the slammer in her DUI case ... as long as she can stay out of trouble for the next 6 months.

A Michigan judge sentenced the 26-year-old beauty queen to 6 months probation and 20 hours of community service ... after she pleaded no contest last month to driving while visibly impaired back in December. Fakih must also complete an alcohol education course.

As we previously reported, cops say Fakih was disoriented and was slurring her speech after she was pulled over for speeding and weaving through traffic.

The woman who won the title of Miss Dominican Republic 2012 ... has been forced to relinquish her crown after officials discovered the ultimate skeleton in her closet -- A HUSBAND!!!

25-year-old Carlina Duran has been 86'd from her post ... after pageant officials say she violated a rule which requires all contestants to be single.

According to reports, Duran has been married since 2009 ... and never told anyone about her ol' ball and chain ... until AFTER she was outed as a MISSUS.

Now, the crown will be passed to the 1st runner-up -- Dulcita Lieggi.

So, we gotta ask ...

Gloria Allred can't stop talking about Donald Trump's junk -- because even though the Miss Universe pageant has already changed its rules regarding transgenders competing ... she's still calling him and his manhood out days later.

Allred and Trump have been trading barbs for weeks after Gloria inserted herself into the controversy surrounding transgender beauty queen Jenna Talackova. Gloria claimed she was fighting for the rights of transgenders to compete in the pageants run by Mr. Trump ... who says the policy change was already in motion before Gloria even got involved.

But here we are, days later, and Gloria still can't let it go ... telling our photog yesterday she'll recant her "small penis" statements about Mr. Trump if he'll change his rule ... A RULE THAT HE'S ALREADY CHANGED!!!

Former Miss USA, and current DUI defendant, Rima Fakih is picking up some crisis management tips from two of her beauty queen sisters ... one of whom is no stranger to controversy.

Fakih was arrested back on December 3 for driving under the influence. Cops said Fakih's blood alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit.

Miss USA 2006 Tara Conner -- who almost lost her crown over "inappropriate behavior" and allegations of drug use -- tells us she reached out to Fakih because, "I know how horrible it feels to have the media air your dirty laundry and it is important to have a support system."

Fakih also got a call from Miss USA 1995 Shanna Moakler who says, "I told Rima the transition to life after the crown can be tough, but we’re a sisterhood and we help each other out."

Former Miss USA Rima Fakih barely said a word in her DUI case hearing today ... but the judge WENT OFF on her lawyer.

Long story short -- the judge was HOPING to hear that Rima's team had banged out a plea deal with prosecutors. But after the lawyers started making excuses ... she got mad. REALLY MAD.

The judge set a bench trial date for March 14 -- which means if she doesn't strike a deal by then, she runs the risk of facing the maximum penalty ... 93 days in the slammer, plus fines.

2010 Miss USA Rima Fakih was HAMMERED when cops arrested her for DUI this weekend ... this according to Michigan police.

According to the police report, obtained by the AP, Fakih was initially stopped when officers noticed the 26-year-old speeding and weaving through traffic in Detroit early Saturday morning.

Cops say Fakih "immediately identified herself as Miss USA."

According to the report, Fakih took a breathalyzer and blew more than TWICE the legal limit -- once blowing a .19 and then a .20. The legal limit in MI is .08.

Officers claim they also found a half-empty bottle of wine on the floorboard behind the driver's seat.

Former Miss USA Rima Fakih was arrested in Michigan early Saturday for suspicion of drunken driving ... this according to an attorney for the beauty queen.

Police would not confirm the arrest -- and Fakih even tweeted yesterday she wasn't even in Michigan -- but her attorney, Donald Elder, told the Detroit Free Press, "Unfortunately she was."

Elder told the paper Fakih was "very saddened and very apologetic for the situation that she is in right now."

As for the tweet, Fakih posted around 5:00 PM on Saturday: "Let’s clear things up now.... I’m NOT in Michigan and I’m NOT in jail! Wrong Fakih."

The tweet has since been deleted.

Mrs. America doesn't give it up for free ... even to bigshot TV producers ... and now the company behind the pageant is going after a network that aired the competition without paying up ... this according to a new lawsuit.

The Mrs. America pageant (it's like Miss America without the oral sex ... just KIDDING!) ... claims it had a deal with My Family TV to bank 50% of all ad revenue on the broadcast of the 2011 contest.

Mrs. America claims My Family TV had 60 days to pay up after the May 8th broadcast -- which featured Florence Henderson BTW -- but the network has flaked out in a big way.

Now, Mrs. America is demanding their money -- more than $50,000.

So far, no comment from My Family TV.

Shanna Moakler is doing her best dainty beauty queen "goodbye" wave to California ... and taking her talents to The Silver State ... to take a new gig with the Miss Nevada USA organization.

Shanna has been a MAJOR factor behind the scenes with the Miss California pageant -- and was credited with helping Miss California USA Alyssa Campanella take the Miss USA title in 2011.

But sources tell us she's looking for a new challenge and feels Nevada is the perfect fit.

Felma -- who is 100-years-young -- beat out 74 other contestants and while she did not have to endure talent or swimsuit competitions, they all underwent 15 minute interviews before the crown was awarded to Schrimshire.

As part of her illustrious duties, Felma will travel to various nursing homes and community events.

Congratulations, Ms. Alabama Nursing Home!

Question is ...

A rep for the Miss USA Organization tells TMZ, it was Megan Burgess' resident assistant at her University of Arkansas dorm who called the cops on Megan for being a drunk nuisance -- and when police found her, she was sitting in the snow outside by herself.

But the Miss USA Organization isn't holding any grudge -- telling us, Megan "is a sweet girl who exemplifies the values of a Miss Teen title holder and is mortified about this."

The rep adds, "She even called over to us and said she was 'sorry if I brought any shame on my state.'"
