Djuan Trent, a Former Miss Kentucky, Comes Out as 'Queer'

[joeybee12]

Djuan Trent, who won the crown of Miss Kentucky in 2010 and finished in the top 10 of the Miss America competition in 2011, has made history by coming out as a lesbian – the first national pageant contestant to do so.

She made the announcement in a lengthy post on her blog.

"I have written and re-written and deleted and restarted this post more times than I care to share," she wrote, "and after all of that I have finally realized: 'There ain't nothin' to it, but to do it.' So, here we go folks …"

"I am queer."
