My mistake! Disaster on Miss Universe 2015 as Steve Harvey announces the WRONG winner - and then Miss Colombia has to take off her crown and give it to Miss Philippines on live television
PUBLISHED: 03:22 GMT, 21 December 2015
Steve Harvey announced the wrong winner of the Miss Universe 2015 pageant on Sunday night - and the crowd watched in heartbreak and horror as the crown had to be removed from the head of one contestant and placed on another.
Miss Colombia had been wiping away tears of joy as the $30,000 blue diamond and topaz crown was placed upon her head and she was named Miss Universe 2015, winning the title for her country for the second year in a row.
But her glory only lasted for two minutes.
Just as Ariadna Gutierrez was blowing kisses and waving to her adoring fans she was informed, on live television, that it was actually Miss Philippines Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach who was meant to be wearing the crown.

Fellow contestants flocked to congratulate Wurtzbach after she was revealed to be the true winner of the pageant
The embarrassed host even showed the results card to the camera to prove that it had truly been his own personal mistake
