Brittany Boltinhouse has sued the Miss USA Organisation after losing her Miss North Carolina USA crown. The beauty queen claimed officials falsely branded her racist and bigoted. Her lawsuit also accused pageant officials of defamation and civil conspiracy.
According to the lawsuit obtained by TMZ, Boltinhouse named the Miss USA Organization and CEO Thom Brodeur. She also named the operators of the Miss North Carolina USA pageant. She alleged that officials smeared her publicly after removing her crown.
Her attorney, Patrick Mincey, said the case focused on what happened afterward. He argued that officials labeled Boltinhouse racist, ******* phobic, and transphobic. He also claimed her political views influenced the decision to remove her.
Boltinhouse reportedly supported Donald Trump and Charlie Kirk. She had also criticized President Biden's Transgender Day of Visibility. Her lawsuit claimed officials used old social media posts as a reason to remove her.
The controversy began after old posts from 2017 and 2019 resurfaced. The posts showed Boltinhouse repeatedly using the N-word. She acknowledged making the posts but denied being racist, ******* phobic, or transphobic.
