(Reno, NV) — The head of the Miss USA pageant is being suspended after a contestant claims this year’s competition was rigged. After the pageant was held on October 3rd, several Miss USA contestants went on social media suggesting there was favoritism toward Miss Texas. On TikTok, Miss Montana Heather Lee O’Keefe claimed there was a lot of proof of favoritism towards the winner, and presented evidence. The head of Miss USA, Crystle Stewart, denies the allegations but is being suspended while the parent company, Miss Universe, conducts a full review.
