Miss USA may have been a ‘Miss Nevada’ carpetbagger

Miss USA may be a carpetbagger, according to a new report that questions just how long the beauty queen — who competed as Miss Nevada — actually lived in the Silver State.

Miss USA Nia Sanchez, who was crowned Sunday, competed for the Miss California crown in 2010, 2011 and 2012, but failed to win each time, Fox reported, citing a source.

The source also claimed that Sanchez barely met the Nevada pageant’s minimum residency — and never actually lived in the state.

But Sanchez said there is “no truth” to the allegations.
