Ex-Miss North Carolina USA Brittany Boltinhouse believes she was stripped of title because of political stance

Ex-Miss North Carolina USA Brittany Boltinhouse broke her silence on Friday, suggesting that her politics and conservative religious beliefs may have played a part in her coveted crown being stripped.“I believe and think I was stripped from my title because of my political stance and my belief system as a conservative Christian woman,” Boltinhouse, 27, told the Carolina Journal in an interview published Friday.Boltinhouse, until then, had remained mum since her sudden dethronement over alleged racist social media posts.Throughout the interview, Boltinhouse emphasizes that she is a proud member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and a “God-fearing woman” who prioritizes her faith, which she believes may have played a role in the conflict.Boltinhouse told the Journal that “all I can say is that I think and believe that my my title was ripped from me because of my beliefs.”She was formally dethroned from the position on Wednesday after pageant organizers performed a “thorough review of recently surfaced information.”The controversy surrounding the former beauty queen arose when she allegedly used the N-word multiple times and bizarrely referred to herself as “toxic” in resurfaced posts under the username ‘Sosa the Stallion.'”The crown was handed over to runner-up Myla Hadley following Boltinhouse’s ouster.
