Wrong Woman Declared Winner at Miss Universe Pageant
环球小姐闹乌龙
Miss Colombia was wrongly declared Miss Universe at the 2015 pageant in Las Vegas this December. She wore the crown for a few moments, before the host, Steve Harvey realized his mistake. Miss Colombia was actually the runner-up, and Miss Philippines was the winner. In one of the most awkward moments in pageant history, the crown was removed from Miss Colombia's head and placed on the head of Miss Philippines. Steve Harvey apologized to the audience and the contestants and took responsibility for the mistake. In his apology tweet, Steve Harvey misspelled Colombia and Philippines. His tweet was removed and reposted with the correct spelling.

今年12月,“环球小姐”决赛在拉斯韦加斯举行,“哥伦比亚小姐”被“张冠李戴”。在为“哥伦比亚小姐”颁发桂冠后不久,主持人史蒂夫·哈维意识到犯了大错。事实上,哥伦比亚小姐”为第二名,第一名是“菲律宾小姐”。作为选美史上最尴尬的一幕,桂冠从“哥伦比亚”头上移交到了“菲律宾”头上。对此,史蒂夫·哈维向观众、参赛小姐道歉,并对这次错误负责。在他的“推特”道歉信上,哈维拼错了哥伦比亚和菲律宾的英文名称。并随即删除重发。
