Shanna Moakler, Miss USA in 1995, has resigned as executive director of the Miss California USA pageant, a day after Carrie Prejean was allowed to keep her crown.
Moakler said that she no longer believes in the organization.

Pageant owner Donald Trump said Tuesday that Prejean will remain Miss Calfornia.
