Steve Harvey announces the
wrong Miss Universe:
Actor/comedian Steve Harvey, made a massive
error in announcing the new Miss Universe at the pageant this
past Sunday in Las Vegas. Harvey stated the new Miss Universe is Miss
Colombia, Ariadna Gutierrez, when the winner was actually Miss Philippines,
Pia Wurtzbach. In an awkward scene, live on
air, the crown was removed from Miss Colombia's head and placed
on Miss Philippines.
Steve Harvey blames mix up on the
teleprompter:
It has made the news all over the world and has become the source of intense laughter on social networking.
Harvey later apologized to Miss Philippines for the blunder he
blamed on the teleprompter. Harvey revealed the teleprompter
stated Miss Colombia, but the paper he was given stated Miss
Philippines.
Miss Germany's reaction is being heavily criticized on
Twitter:

People online are crying foul, stating the
incident is a cruel publicity stunt, as U.S. presidential
candidate, Donald Trump owns the Miss Universe pageant and had a
global scandal with the previous contest (Global
Backlash As Miss Jamaica Places 5th In The Miss Universe Pageant).
Some believe the incident was orchestrated for ratings at the
expense of Harvey, Miss Philippines and Miss Colombia.

Then another controversy erupted online when Miss
Germany, Sarah Lorraine, made comments in a video interview about Miss Philippines that were
slammed all over social networking. Miss Germany began to
trend on the social networking website Twitter for all the
wrong reasons, as people lashed out at her comments.

Photos also emerged of poor Miss Colombia
devastated and crying. It is understandable under the
circumstances, as that was a traumatic shock to sustain.
However, she needs to spin this thing into gold, by getting
commercials that spoof or poke fun at what happened at the
pageant. I also feel sorry for Miss Philippines, as her
moment was somewhat ruined.
It was a sad mix up, but it is better to laugh at it than cry. Here are some of the funnier tweets on Twitter about the pageant:

Miss Germany, of course, you were
participating in this event. What was your reaction when you
saw that Ms Colombia was the Miss Universe, and then all of
a sudden, they said it was a mistake and she was not Miss
Universe anymore?
Ms Germany: I couldn’t believe it. I was so
upset. For me, Miss France was the real winner. I was very
happy for Colombia. Actually she really deserves it(Miss
Colombia), but I’m really not happy with the result and so
were the other girls. I’m sorry to say that.
You, and all the candidates, went to Miss
Colombia directly. When you saw they were taking the crown
from her, why did you go to Miss Colombia instead of going
to congratulate Miss Philippines?
Ms Germany: Because none of us voted for
Philippines. I’m sorry to say that.
Can you elaborate on that?
Ms Germany: No, I don’t want to elaborate on
that. But we really like Colombia and we’re really happy for
her. I just can’t stop my emotions right now. I’m really not
happy with the results. I wish Pia the best in life and
career. But I’m really not happy with the results.
What have you done if that would have
happened to you (what happened to Miss Colombia)?
Ms Germany: Well, that’s probably like the
most, like, awful situation ever and ever. Like that’s not
fair. You get crowned Miss Universe…like there are so many
things…that you need to take away the crown. I’m so sorry
for her. That’s probably the first that ever and ever
happened in her life. Well, I would handle the situation
properly. You have the crown, like, be proud, to represent
my country and I’m proud. Best crown.
Thank you so much. What is your name?
Ms Germany: Sarah Lorraine.
