Brittany Boltinhouse, the 27-year-old former Miss North Carolina USA, is suing the pageant organization and its president for defamation, claiming they branded her a racist and a bigot to cover up the fact that they stripped her title over her conservative Christian beliefs. Boltinhouse filed the lawsuit on August 23 in Duplin County Superior Court, naming Miss USA president Thom Brodeur, the national organization, and North Carolina pageant producer A-Blaize Productions as defendants. The timing was pointed: she filed one day before the Miss USA competition kicked off in Miami, Florida, ensuring the suit would land while the pageant world was watching. The suit does not challenge the organization's authority to take away her crown.…Open
