SEE IT: Miss Colombia’s Real Thoughts on Steve Harvey’s Mistake

It happened during the final moments of the Miss Universe pageant Sunday night at The AXIS in Las Vegas, as host Steve Harvey presented the prestigious award to Miss Colombia. The only problem? He read the wrong name: Miss Philippines was the real winner of the evening.

And the mix-up happened live. In front of the world.

Following Miss Colombia’s triumphant crowning (or so she thought!), the host of the evening awkwardly walked to the center of the stage. “I have to apologize…the first runner up is…Colombia,” he stammered. “Miss Universe 2015 is…Miss Philippines!”

Here's what Miss Colombia had to say about the situation.

In Steve Harvey's defense, he looked mortified by his mistake and he owned it. Take it from me. When you're live on the air mistakes happen. Some are larger than others, but we are all human.
