Despite being the most famous of the 17 contestants competing in Saturday night’s Miss Maine pageant, Jordon Hudson is only in seventh place in online voting ahead of the festivities. 

Anyone is able to vote for their favorite pageant hopeful for $1, with the public’s favorite getting an automatic place in the competition’s semifinals. 

Hudson has amassed 146 votes, far behind leader Lexi Bjork, who has 1,381 votes. In between the duo is Isabelle St. Cyr, the first transgender woman to compete in Miss Maine, who has 447 votes. 

Hudson has strutted her stuff in a pageant before, as the third-runner up at the Miss Massachusetts Teen competition in 2020. She also competed for the Miss Main crown last year, as the runner-up. 

The winner of Miss Maine represents the state at the Miss USA pageant, competing against the 49 other states and Washington DC. 

Hudson will compete in three categories during the competition – evening gown, interview, and fittingly, swimsuit – with a winner being crowned on Sunday, two weeks removed from when the disastrous CBS interview aired of her interrupting on behalf of 49-years-older boyfriend Bill Belichick.  

The family of the legendary NFL coach and current North Carolina football leader ‘is digging into’ his girlfriend with fears she could tear down ‘everything he’s built’. 

Hudson, 24, has been under siege for her role in their relationship weeks, with new twists coming earlier this week. 

On Friday, the ongoing Hudson drama took another twist, as former ESPN reporter Pablo Torre claimed Friday morning on his podcast that Hudson was told she was no longer welcome at the school’s football facilities.

He reported that high-ranking officials in UNC’s athletic department came to a decision last week that Hudson would not be allowed at the football field or inside the facility. 

The sports journalist also stated from a source that, ‘there is deep worry for how detrimental Jordon can be for not just North Carolina but Bill’s legacy, reputation – everything he has built and worked for over decades.’

Torre also made the bold claim that the Belichick family ‘has been digging into’ Hudson, with her antics over the last few weeks raising tons of red flags.   

However, a statement from Carolina Athletics to Daily Mail has strongly denied the story of Hudson being banned. It read: ‘While Jordon Hudson is not an employee at the University or Carolina Athletics, she is welcome to the Carolina Football facilities. 

‘Jordon will continue to manage all activities related to Coach Belichick’s personal brand outside of his responsibilities for Carolina Football and the University.’ 

In response to UNC’s denial, Torre posted on X: ‘UNC can now choose to describe or change its position on Jordon Hudson’s involvement however it wishes, following the publication of our episode. 

‘We requested comment and filed dozens of FOIA requests that were not satisfied. And we stand by the specific reporting in our episode, which came from the highest levels of the football program.’

Belichick, 73, is arguably the most accomplished football coach ever, leaving the New England Patriots and the NFL in January 2024 and making the shock move to college football late last year with the Tar Heels. 

He signed a five-year, $50million contract with the school in December and is busy preparing them for the upcoming season, which begins on September 1.

Hudson’s influence has already made things wobble in Chapel Hill, too. It emerged that her desire to be involved in the iconic HBO ‘Hard Knocks’ series curtailed the cameras’ involvement in Belichick’s work at the school.  

She was also slammed by fans after a ‘gross’ video emerged of Hudson, 24, dominating one practice last month. While players were busy working out on the field, Hudson was in constant interaction with Belichick and at one point even strolled onto the turf to fix his mic and headset. 

After her behavior during the CBS interview aired, Hudson has also been accused of hijacking another Belichick commercial by slipping into a yellow bikini and asking to be given a role in the shoot.

She also reportedly stunned the crew of a Dunkin’ Super Bowl commercial after ‘forcing’ her way into the ad.
