Oh no oh no!
Not sure how many of you caught the Miss Universe Pageant but it was a total uproar. The Miss Universe contestant from Philippines, Pia Wurtzbach, won the 2015 pageant crown in Las Vegas, but after Steve Harvey had mistakenly announced Miss Colombia as the winner. It happened so quick but for some reason you could see it in the eyes of Wurtzbach’s that she was the real winner.
Harvey went back on stage and told everyone he had mistakenly read the wrong name. Miss Colombia was, in fact, the first runner-up of the pageant. Miss Philippines, Pia Wurtzbach, was the real pageant winner.
Harvey took full responsibility of the mishap, telling viewers the card had the right name listed for Miss Universe winner — he just said the wrong name. Which happens to the best of them! We are all human and make mistakes, this is just one example.
I had my hopes set on Haiti of course but the world has the final say. Congrats to all the contestants and the final winner, Miss Philippines.
