There was some controversy the weekend after the pageant at a Kentucky Derby party when Harris was photographed dancing with New England Patriots star wide receiver Randy Moss.
Reportedly at first the dancing was playful, but then "the second — and more provocative — photo shows Harris bent over in front of Moss grinding up against him as he holds her hip, which could be depicted as a simulated sex acting".
