Miss New Jersey Amy Polumbo released the photos allegedly used to blackmail her on Thursday, the day on which directors of the pageant were to decide if she can continue to wear her crown.

Polumbo told NBC's "Today" show that the photos show her "not in a ladylike manner" and that she "felt sick to her stomach."
"I want to end this," Amy Polumbo said hours before she was to meet with pageant officials who will decide whether she will represent the Garden State in the Miss America pageant.



The pictures include one showing what Polumbo said was her boyfriend apparently biting her breast through her shirt, another of Polumbo in a limousine wearing jeans with her legs spread in the air, and another of her in what appears to be a Halloween costume dress holding two small pumpkins up to her breasts.
"It's not in a ladylike manner. I'm not a robot. I'm a human being," Polumbo said.
There were also photos of Polumbo drinking, but the 22-year-old college student said she was of legal age when they were taken.
Polumbo said she didn't think the pictures should lead to the loss of her crown but said other people might interpret them differently.
"What I think is OK, someone else's eyebrows could be raised," she said.
