The resignations of the reigning Miss USA and Miss Teen USA in the space of a few days have put the pageants' parent organization under the microscope — especially as the young women cited mental health and differences in values as their reasons.
NEW YORK, United States — The resignations of the reigning Miss USA and Miss Teen USA in the space of a few days have put the pageants' parent organization under the microscope — especially as the young women cited mental health and differences in values as their reasons.
Michelle said she had worked closely with Miss USA Noelia Voigt — a 24-year-old Venezuelan American who was crowned in September — and had seen "a decline in her mental health" — an issue Voigt mentioned when she resigned on Monday. She called her time as Miss USA "incredibly meaningful," highlighting her charity work and being the first Venezuelan American to win the title.
Srivastava — a self-described "first generation, Mexican-Indian American" from New Jersey — said Wednesday she was relinquishing her crown as her "personal values no longer fully align with the direction of the organization."
