I don't know much about Perez Hilton, but based on his judging performance at the Miss USA pageant, I think he's a jerk.
First of all, the issue of same-sex marriage has no bearing on what is essentially a beauty pageant -- particulary when other contestants got less-divisive questions.
Second, if he or any of the other judges voted against Carrie Prejean because of her non-PC answer, they have shown themselves to be unworthy judges of a beauty pageant. Miss Prejean spoke her mind, refusing to bow to pressure, and deserves much credit for that. Mr. Hilton, on the other hand, should conduct his personal crusades in other (appropriate) forums.
