Miss USA pageant contestant shows what an idiot she is... [View all]



Miss Ohio Audrey Bolte on Sunday cited Julia Roberts' prostitute character in the film Pretty Woman as a role where women were portrayed in an "accurate and positive way."

“Do you think women are depicted in movies and on television in an accurate and positive way? And please give us an example," Judge Marilu Henner asked the top five finalist during Sunday's Miss USA pageant on NBC.

"I think it depends on the movie," Bolte replied. "I think there are some movies that depict women in a very positive role, and then some movies that put them in a little bit more of negative role. But by the end of the movie, they show that woman power that I know we all have."

"Such as movie Pretty Woman," she pointed out. "We had a wonderful, beautiful woman, Julia Roberts, and she was having a rough time, but, you know what, she came out on top and she didn’t let anybody stand in her path."
