Former Miss USA runner-up Carrie Prejean is firing back at California pageant officials with a lawsuit over the questioning portion of the pageant.

“If Carrie had not answered the question in support of traditional marriage ... she would most certainly still be Miss California,” Prejean’s attorney Charles S Limandri told Foxnews.com. “So we are requesting a new set of questioners, namely the White House Press corps.”

The 22-year-old beauty queen filed a complaint Monday morning in Los Angeles Superior Court. Prejean lost her crown three months ago for what state pageant officials claimed was a “breach of contract” and failure to attend scheduled appearances.

“Over the past two months we have worked hard to provide overwhelming evidence that Miss Prejean did not violate her contract. She did not deserve to have her title revoked” Limandri claimed. “We have done this in an effort for people to know the truth. But the truth didn’t work. So we want a do over with a new softball question like the ones the White House reporters serve up.”

“All of this mess happened because of that stupid gay marriage question,” Prejean stated. “So I want a new question, an easy question, you know, like that guy Gibbs gets all the time. Maybe something about what kind of puppy I’m gonna get if I win.”
