The Miss USA pageant representative from Pennsylvania resigned her crown, claiming the contest is rigged, but organizers said she was upset over the decision to allow transgender contestants to enter. A posting on Miss Pennsylvania Sheena Monnin’s Facebook page claims another contestant learned the names of the top five finishers hours before the show was broadcast. Donald Trump, who runs the Miss Universe Organization, called Monnin’s claims ‘‘totally ridiculous’’ in an interview Wednesday on ABC’s ‘‘Good Morning America.’’ The pageant’s winner, Miss Rhode Island Olivia Culpo, told WPRO-AM she knew Monnin ‘‘fairly well’’ because contestants were often positioned alphabetically by state. She said Monnin’s original resignation was based on her stance on the pageant’s policy on transgender contestants. (AP)
