Brittany Boltinhouse was crowned Miss North Carolina USA on June 28, 2026. On August 5, 2026, organizers A Blaize Productions announced she was being stripped of the title after a review of newly surfaced information. Reports linked the decision to old social media posts that allegedly contained racial slurs.
In an August 7, 2026, interview, Boltinhouse claimed she lost the crown due to her conservative Christian beliefs, while organizers denied this and said the move was based on past conduct that did not meet pageant standards. The matter has now taken a new turn as Brittany Boltinhouse has filed a lawsuit against Miss USA.
