Miss Universe 2015 Shoe Sponsor Chinese Laundry Opens Up On Winner Mistake
Steve Harvey holds up the cue card which may have tricked him into incorrectly announcing the wrong Miss Universe victor.

“Sarah-Lorraine Riek really wasn’t happy when Steve Harvey presented Philippines’ Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach with the crown after initially saying Ariadna Gutierrez Arevalo had won”, said one pageant-watcher.
“I was confused. I wasn’t sure what was going on”, Wurtzbach told ET after her unprecedented pageant upset.
Manny Pacquiao has hailed the victory of the Philippines at the Miss Universe pageant as his nation’s revenge for the fighter’s defeat by Floyd Mayweather. This time there was a biracial beauty from Japan, a refugee immigrant from Australia and Indonesian Muslim girl too.
Harvey while making the announcement claimed that Miss Colombia, Ariadna Gutierrez, was the new Miss Universe. She bathed in applause for almost two minutes before Harvey slowly made his way back onto the stage. “They placed the crown on her, there is a photo and for me as a Colombian she will continue to be Miss Universe”.
“That would be a nightmare”, she said. “I was happy because I really wanted to win but felt sad for Miss Colombia”.
Mr Harvey said it was his mistake alone and that he would take responsibility for not correctly reading the card, which said that Wurtzbach was this year’s victor and Miss Colombia was actually the first runner-up.
Harveytook to Twitter to say: “I’d like to apologise wholeheartedly to Miss Colombia & Miss Philippines for my huge mistake”.
“I have to apologize”, he said.

We at TheCelebrityCafe.com feel for Miss Colombia’s embarrassment and pain, but we just had to laugh along at these reactions to Harvey’s Miss Universe gaffe. He called it a terribly honest human mistake, but misspelt the women’s home countries.
