Dethroned Miss North Carolina USA winner Brittany Boltinhouse has filed a defamation lawsuit after being stripped of her title – where she accused pageant bosses of covering up the reason why her crown was removed. Her lawyers have accused A-Blaize Productions — the pageant producers — and Miss USA president Thom Brodeur of “maliciously coordinating to publish a false public narrative portraying [her] as a racist, homophobe, and intolerable bigot to be shunned from public life,” according to a lawsuit, which was filed on Sunday and seen by The Post. The lawsuit was filed on the eve of Miss USA, which kicks off in Miami, Florida, on Monday.
