Steve Harvey to return as Miss Universe 2016 host?
Miss Universe 2014 Paulina Vega (centre) speaks to the audience as she transfers the crown from Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez to victor Miss Philippines Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach. I was able to bring happiness to my country after becoming Miss Universe for only a couple of minutes…

In a letter addressed to Ariadna via The Miss Universe Organisation, Steve wrote that the deal will: “more than make up for any fame and fortune you might get as Miss Universe”.
In an awkward moment broadcast live Sunday night on Fox, Harvey announced Gutierrez as the new Miss Universe, when in fact judges and fans had named her the first runner-up. I could give the joy of being #MissUniverse to my country only for a few minutes, today thanks to that COLOMBIA and the LATIN community sounds in every corner of the planet.
It was a success in many ways, but his bungling of the victor announcement – he briefly crowned Miss Colombia before correcting himself and saying that Miss Philippines actually won – went viral and humiliated the comedian.
“This is exactly what’s on the card”, Harvey said, holding it up, clearly distraught.
“It just was a flat-out mistake”, the CCO said. “I want to thank each and everyone of you who have sent messages of support and strength”, she captioned a shot of herself at the pageant that showed her hands in the shape of a heart.
Harvey has since apologized repeatedly for his mistake, and even the Miss Universe organization offered the host an olive branch and invited him back. “As well as the wonderful contestants”.
She added that she was proud to have taken part in the Miss Univese competition, joking that she did hold the crown for Colombia, however brief it may have been.
It was also reported that Harvey had received an invitation to return as the host of the 2016 Miss Universe pageant. “The happiness that you must be feeling must be incredible”, she wrote to Pia in the post.
