For the second time in a week, embattled beauty queen Carrie Prejean has lost a job.

This time, she was axed by clothing brand Sledge USA. Prejean had been slated to be the spokesmodel for the line's upcoming fall campaign, but according to brand manager Vered Nisim, Prejean didn't hold up her end of the deal.

"She did not keep her appointments at all. She refused to confirm a time and date, even though we were on a very tight schedule," Nisim tells E! News, adding that "it had nothing to do with her being let go as Miss California."

As for Prejean's Sledge sub? It's a matter of déjà vu...

The former Miss California USA is going to be replaced by current titleholder Tami Farrell.

Nisim says the decision to fire Prejean was made last week and the company had originally considered replacing her with Miss Teen USA, Stevi Perry. But Sledge went with Farrell after viewing her portfolio and discussing the matter with Keith Lewis, the executive director of Miss California USA.

"We have not worked with Tami before, but we understand from the Miss California people that she's great to work with, very sweet," says Nisim. Farrell's campaign shoot will take place tomorrow in Beverly Hills.
