Tami Farrell has taken over Carrie Prejean's responsibilities as Miss California.
The former first runner up was pressed into service after Prejean was fired by Donald Trump and pageant officials on Wednesday.
FOXNews.com got the first online interview with Farrell, and asked her about the tumultuous past 24 hours.

FOX: Congratulations. Bit of a strange way of becoming Miss California?
Tami Farrell: Yes, it was definitely a crazy phone call to receive, but Im excited to represent the state. I only found out yesterday! It was definitely some interesting news to receive but Im just so excited.
FOX: Are you disappointed now that you wont be able to compete again for Miss California and have the opportunity to go on to compete for Miss USA?
Tami Farrell: I think I had a bit of a blessing. When I was 18 years old, I was Miss Teen USA, so I had a taste of being a national titleholder and being in the competition. But being able to do things here within the state is great. I am pursuing acting and a screenwriter so being able to focus on projects within the state is a real blessing to me.

Frankly, it looks like an improvement over yesterday's model.
So what is her opinion on gay “marriage”?
She certainly is beautiful.
Not Guilty.
Not sure, but if she hooks up with her predecessor, I’m buying the video
Seriously, I thought FoxNews was supposed to ask all the tough questions. Not even a hint.
Meh. I like the other one better.
"My hobbies include lobbying for anti-smoking legislation, posing next to electric cars, and dancing at homo weddings!"
That's the important thing. There should be checklist the liberals can test all the Miss USA pageant contestants on so that we can be absolutely sure they will spout the liberal line on command - like trained dogs (since that's how liberals think of women).
Probably just my opinion, but if I were Miss Tami,I would have turned it down, just on principle.
Just nice...hot...
The tough questions were already taken.
The other gals boobs look fake. This one’s look real.
I’m glad she’s getting her life together again. She took it pretty hard for awhile after I dumped her.
no one is gonna ask that
if so she should say “same as president obama’s”
That would have been priceless and knocked Donald down a few notches. I still haven't heard exactly which appearances Prejean missed but of course that wasn't why she was fired.
She needs breast implants.
