Rosie O'Donnell is not going to be happy. Miss USA Nevada Katie Rees may get that second chance she asked for. On a report broadcast on the nightly entertainment show Extra TV on Thursday, Donald Trump said he is considering giving Katie Rees like 'Mulligan' to the former Miss Nevada.

If she isn't given another shot, runner-up Helen Salas will take the reigns and the crown of Miss Nevada USA 2007.

But in an interview on Extra, Trump stated that he still has not made up his mind if he should boot the beauty queen. Tara Rees was originally given the heave-ho when photos of her topless and bottomless emerged on the Internet. The then 19-year old was caught on film cavorting in suggestive poses with both men and women.

"The pictures are pretty bad," Trump said in the interview. But he refused to rule out a second chance. When pushed as to which way he was leaning Trump replied that he would "rather not say."

In an earlier interview with Fox News just a week ago, the billionaire owner of the Miss USA pageant said the photos were unacceptable. Trump's Miss Universe Organization released a brief statement a week ago Thursday confirming Rees "had been relieved of her duties," and replaced by Salas.

But at a later press conference the former Nevada champ insisted that the snapshots did not provide an accurate picture of the person she really is.
