Is the Miss USA Pageant fixed?

That's what one former beauty queen is claiming.

Miss Pennsylvania, Sheena Monnin, gave up her state crown and called out the Miss USA organization on Facebook, saying the pageant is "fraudulent, lacking morals, inconsistent and trashy!"

Monnin also claimed another contenstant saw a list of the top five before the show started.

On Wednesday, Donald Trump, the owner of the Miss USA PAgeant, denied the charges.

"I think the primary issue was that she lost and she's angry about losing. And frankly, in my opinion, I saw her for barely a second. She didn't deserve to be in the top 15," said Trump.

Trump now plans to sue.

As for the contestant who supposedly saw the top five list? She said Monnin is lying.
