On Wednesday, 17-year-old Miss Teen USA UmaSofia Srivastava made a shocking statement that she resigned from the crown. She stated that “no longer fully aligns with the organization’s direction.” At the beginning of the week, Miss USA Noelia Voigt also resigned seven months into her reign, citing mental health challenges. It is the first time in the pageant’s 72-year history a title holder voluntarily stepped down. According to a source, Srivastava and Voigt have been forced by iron-clad contracts to smile despite “harmful workplace conditions silently.” “There is an urgent need for intervention at the leadership level.”
