The mysterious case of Ms. Carrie Prejean

[ShadowHM]

As for harder to find contestants who haven't inhaled or posed nude. I blame digital cameras, and the internet. 10 years ago people didn't take pictures of themselves doing stupid stuff and distribute it to the entire world. So it was easier to leave it behind when you grew up.

It isn't *just* the taking pictures of yourself doing stupid things. It is that digital cameras are hidden in cell phones now and there can now be pictures of you doing stupid things that you thought were done in private. Michael Phelps now understands that, to his sorrow and considerable loss of income for endorsements. I am quite sure that he is not the only person who has found that privacy isn't just eroding, but gushing away in a torrent.

Back to the OP, I have to wonder why there is such a desire to idealize anyone, let alone young women who have a lot to financially gain from appearing to be 'wholesome'.
