Katherine Nicole "Katie" Rees (born August 11, 1984) is an American former beauty pageant titleholder who was crowned Miss Nevada USA 2007.
She was to compete in the Miss USA 2007 pageant, but was dethroned in December 2006 following the release of sexually charged pictures of her taken at a Florida nightclub three years prior.
Rees won the title of Miss Nevada USA 2007 on her first try in a state pageant held in Las Vegas on October 8, 2006.
[2] On December 21, 2006, Rees was stripped of her crown by the Miss Universe Organization[2] with the approval of pageant co-owner Donald Trump.
On January 27, 2007, Celebrity Web Site TMZ.com published one of the sets of photos that got Rees in trouble with the Miss Universe Organization.
During the programme, she was shown being questioned by Customs Officers at Sydney airport after swabs of her bag and laptop gave positive readings for cocaine and/or methamphetamine, and she was unable to give the full name of her traveling companion/friend.
"[6] Rees was arrested again Tuesday (Sept. 1, 2015) after her boyfriend of 10-months, Kevin “DJ Kulprit” Sims, was pulled over by Las Vegas Police for allegedly speeding and failing to signal when changing lanes.
