Miss Philippines Speaks Out About Her Awkward Miss Universe Win — See What
Considering the genuine grace and humility that Gutierrez has already displayed throughout this entire affair, it’s likely that Miss Colombia would probably forgive Harvey for that, too.
Miss Philippines shocked upon receiving the crown on December 20.
In another backstage interview, Wurtzbach, who was crowned Miss Universe after Harvey returned to the stage to say that he’d made a mistake, was basically speechless.
The host followed up after the the dramatic show with a honest apology tweet to all his followers.
“I have to apologize”, Harvey said.
“None of this was done on goal”.
Our source said there is “no way” the mistake was done for publicity, as some news outlets have questioned, but could be chalked up to Harvey simply being under-rehearsed.
Tune in to the shocking video below.
The actual victor, Miss Philippines – 26-year-old Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach – might have felt the confusion most of all. Disgusting mistake… but I can show it to you right here.

The camera switched to a bewildered-looking Wurtzbach, who came back on the stage to get the crown as the same celebratory music repeated.
Do you think it was right of them to take away Colombia’s crown? “But as Miss Columbia was very conservative and also respectful, I would have done as she did”, Miss Santa Barbara County Arianna Lemus said.
Earlier, during the pageant when she was asked about the U.S. reopening a military base in the Philippines, she said the two nations have always shared a good relationship with each other and due to colonisation, the Philippines still has the USA culture.
“I was watching Miss Universe with my family”.
Of course it didn’t take long for social media to react – with Justin Bieber being one of the first to stick the boot in.
“I take responsibility for this”.
Trump said Monday that he regretted the mixup, adding that it would never have happened under his watch.
