KIDNAPPING victim turned women’s advocate Elizabeth Smart is stepping in to support an exploding revolt by beauty queens fed up with bullying and unchecked sexual harassment within the Miss USA pageant organization!
Smart, who was infamously snatched from her bedroom as a 14-yearold in 2002 and held against her will for nine months, reached out to former Miss USA Noelia Voigt after she abdicated her throne in protest of alleged abuses, igniting a campaign to oust pageant CEO and President Laylah Rose.
“I was made to feel unsafe at events without an effective handler, and this culminated in being sexually harassed,” Noelia, 24, reveals in her resignation letter.
As The National ENQUIRER reported, just two days after Noelia resigned, Miss Teen USA UmaSofia Srivastava, 17, gave up her crown to protest an allegedly toxic work environment.
