Duplin County Woman Says Miss NC USA Title Stripped over Conservative Christian Beliefs
Organizers said a review found conduct inconsistent with pageant standards, while first runner-up Myla Hadley will take over and compete at Miss USA.
- On Aug. 5, organizers formally stripped Brittany Boltinhouse of her Miss North Carolina USA title weeks after she won the state pageant. Runner-up Myla Hadley will assume the title and compete at the Miss USA pageant later this month.
- A Blaize Productions stated the decision "followed a thorough review of recently surfaced information" inconsistent with organizational standards. Reports indicate the removal occurred after social media posts containing racial slurs attributed to Brittany Boltinhouse resurfaced.
- Miss USA CEO Thom Brodeur stated the decision "reflected conduct over an extended period of time," while the 27-year-old Brittany Boltinhouse told the Carolina Journal she was judged by an "untrue narrative" during a 12-minute interview.
- Brittany Boltinhouse, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, maintained she was removed for her political and religious beliefs. A Blaize Productions stated it does not condone online harassment or personal attacks against Boltinhouse or her family.
- Myla Hadley takes over the title immediately, moving forward at the Miss USA pageant later this month. Organizers emphasized their obligation to uphold the integrity of the organization, its titleholders, and sponsors in making the decision.
