Brittany Boltinhouse has been dethroned just weeks after being crowned Miss North Carolina USA.Miss USA Organization chairman and CEO Thom Brodeur announced Wednesday that Boltinhouse, 27, was stripped of her title after what he described as conduct that violated the organization’s standards discovered in a “thorough review of recently surfaced information.”Although Brodeur did not specify the conduct, he said the pageant “does not tolerate racism, homophobia, transphobia nor language that strips any person of their dignity — whoever they are.”“This is not a policy written for a press release, it is the floor of what it means to represent this brand,” the statement said. “A title here isn’t a trinket. It is a position of trust, extended by an organization and accepted by a woman who agrees to carry a standard in public.”He continued: “When that standard is broken, the title cannot continue as though nothing happened. What was brought to us was not a single moment. It reflected conduct over an extended period of time.”Brittany Boltinhouse has lost her Miss North Carolina USA title after being crowned June 28 (Instagram)“That is why this outcome was reached and I stand behind it without qualification,” he said.Boltinhouse has yet to speak out about the decision, but Brodeur emphasized that her statement will be made soon.The Independent has contacted Boltinhouse, who was crowned June 28, for additional comment.More follows on this news story.
