SYDNEY — A former beauty queen with a penchant for assaulting people is finally paying her dues. <br /> <br />News.com.au reports that on Dec. 16, Brittany Nicole Poteet, who goes by Nikki, was accused of beating up boyfriend Wade McKenzie at Neutral Bay, on Sydney’s North Shore. <br /> <br />She had to appear before an Australian court and was charged with assault for causing the 29-year-old man bodily harm. McKenzie has since taken out an apprehended violence order against her. <br /> <br />The 2011 Miss Virginia USA was already making headlines before she moved to Australia in 2014 — but for all the wrong reasons. <br /> <br />Her then-roommate accused her of smashing furniture and uttering gay slurs at him and his friends. She also allegedly attacked an ex-boyfriend in 2013, punching him in the face and snaring him with a fish hook. <br /> <br />Charges in both cases were dropped, with Poteet denying any wrongdoing.
