Carrie Prejean's lawyer has termed a lawsuit filed by USA pageant officials seeking return of the money the pageant paid for her breast implants as 'appalling and pathetic.'
The surgery cost $5,200 and Pageant officials claim Prejan entered into an oral agreement to refund the money. In a statement released to RadarOnline.com, Carrie's lawyer states:
"This is just the latest installment in K2 Production's ongoing smear campaign against Carrie Prejean. They have proven, once again, that they will use whatever scurrilous accusations they can dredge up – or invent – to try and tarnish Carrie's reputation and her good name. It is both appalling and pathetic to see K2 and their friends in Hollywood try to destroy this young woman simply for standing up for her beliefs."
In their lawsuit, K2 had stated that they "agreed to loan Ms. Prejean money to pay for breast augmentation surgery so that she (in her opinion) would be more competitive at the Miss USA 2009 pageant" and "the idea for Ms. Prejean to have the breast augmentation surgery came from Ms. Prejean herself, not from K2 Productions or the Miss Universe Organization."
