In a Wednesday interview with Larry King, former Miss California, Carrie Prejean, accused Larry King’s questions about why she settled her lawsuit against the Miss USA Pageant “inappropriate.”

“You sued the pageant after they fired you, they countersued, and then you accused them of a number of things including religious discrimination, clearly an issue important to you,” King asked. “Why did you settle? You don’t have to tell me the terms of the settlement, but why settle since you had a fight to carry on?”

“You know what Larry? Everything that was discussed in mediation, I’ll say it again, is completely confidential. I’m not, I’m not gonna be able to talk about that,” Prejean retorted.

When King replied back in confusion, pointing out that he was only asking about why she settled, not the terms of the settlement, Prejean fired back, accusing him of being “inappropriate.”

Prejean later threatened to leave the show after King took a call from a gay man in Detroit, asking the anti-marriage advocate what would she do if a gay friend were to ask her about marital advice.
