On Sunday night Steve Harvey, host of the 2015 Miss Universe pageant mis-announced the winner. Moments after announcing Miss Colombia won, Harvey said he made a mistake and announced Miss Philippines is Miss Universe. "I will take full responsibility for this," said Harvey. "This is exactly what's on the card." The audience responded to the awkward error with boos. The camera captured Miss USA nudging a chocked and confused Miss Philippines to tell her she should go to the front.   The outgoing
Miss Universe removed the $300 thousand crown from her fellow country woman's head and placed it on the actual winner, Pia Alonza Wurtzbach, as everyone took in the bittersweet moment.


Seconds after the crowning, the "Family Feud" host paced the stage with a look of disbelief on his face as if the error was brought to his attention. The remainder of the 80 contestants did not flood the winner with congratulatory kisses as is the usual scene. The sudden change was anti-climactic.

Miss USA, Olivia Jordan was the second runner up.
