is Philippines! - (laughing) No-ho-ho!
I mean, yes, but no.
- There's so many emotions in that face; I can't begin to describe.
- She doesn't even know what to do!
Get out there, girl. Get your crown.

- Awkward AF.
- And then Miss Columbia's still just standing there
with the crown on her head!
- (Steve Harvey) Listen, folks...
- This is so uncomfortable. I feel uncomfortable. (giggles)
- (Steve Harvey) This is exactly what's on the card.
- How do you not read that right though?
- (Steve Harvey) It was my mistake.
It was on the card. - That poor guy.
- (Steve Harvey) A horrible mistake. - "Horrible mistake."
Yes, Steve.
- (Steve Harvey) I can show it to you right here.
- You know, I've seen a close up of this card.
It's, like, pretty... it's pretty clear.
- (Steve Harvey) It's still a great night. - Is it?

Thank you all.
♪ (triumphant music) ♪ - (laughing) I can't watch.

No one in that entire clip is a winner!

- (Finebros) Did you know about this before today?
- I did.
I read a lot about it on Twitter, but I had not seen that video.
- I did.
- How could you not?
- It was all over Twitter.
- I didn't know about it until it was viral the next day.
- My wife was looking at her Facebook feed and she said,
"(seriously) Oh no."
And I thought, "Who died?"
- As someone that has done hosting things in the past,
that's my greatest nightmare.
- (Finebros) Why is this the type of thing
that would go that crazy in social media? - Someone messed up on TV,
and usually that makes for a story in today's day and age.
- The Internet loves fails. (Finebros chuckles)
It's, like, one of the biggest, sharable things.
- You just can't watch it without feeling uncomfortable.
My pits were sweating.
- It is the most uncomfortable thing that could ever happen at a pageant.
Everyone loves to see an uncomfortable moment,
but not be in it.
- The things that succeed on social media
are people getting little glimpses of the human condition,
and one of those is just that feeling
we all know of being just so embarrassed and disappointed
and thinking you got something.
There's so many emotions.
- (Finebros) How do you think Steve Harvey did in terms of covering
for this mistake once he realized it? - I don't know.
Kind of just real average?
I just don't know how you messed that up in the first place.
- He could've done it a lot quicker. That was a long pause.
He was just slowly walking over.
- I think it was good. - I know.
- He owned up to it. He said, "Don't blame the women.
You know, this is all on me."
- I think he did a good job.
Was it awkward? Was it painful?
Was it gloriously entertaining? Absolutely.
- I'm not gonna lie. The temptation to stand there
and be like, "Hey, no one's gonna know.
Let me just pretend this is what the card says."
I mean, he owned up. He showed the card.
How else could you have handled the situation?
I think he handled it the best he could have.
- (Finebros) What about the decision to decrown Miss Columbia
while they were still on the air? - That was the worst part.
Couldn't you wait?!
- They probably have built-in policies for so many things, but not that.
The show had to wing it.
- They should've had a back-up crown
because that's awkward as AF.
- They should've had a second crown and said,
"Oh no, no, no. We're doing it different this year.
Two Miss Universes!"
- It happened so fast that no one had a second
to really process the entire situation.
- That's a tough decision to make, but then at the end of the day
you also have to think about
that that's Miss Philippines' moment as well.
- (Finebros) If you were Miss Columbia,
how do you think you would have reacted?
(Finebros snickers)
- This! This moment right now!
- You would've seen it in my eyes.
I would've started crying, but I would've keep smiling.
- Anyone would've reacted the same way Miss Columbia reacted,
which is with the saddest smile I've ever seen in my life.
- Well, what do you do?
You just go-- (heavy sigh)...
and then you just moonwalk out of that bitch.
You just get out of the way because it's not your time any more.
It's not about you any more, (laughing) and you thought it was.
- (Finebros) So you do a lot of live performing.
Has there ever been something that went horribly wrong?
- Oh god, that's hard.
- Luckily, I'm Miranda, so if I mess up
I can blame it on the fact that Miranda's an idiot.
- Things go wrong in my shows all the time.
One time, I was singing this song where the first half starts acoustic
and we had started it in the wrong key, and then all these tracks come in
and I'm a tritone off
and you just to smile and be like, "Keep singing."
- I make mistakes all the time.
I mean, I do stand-up comedy
and sometimes I totally see the punchline of a joke
as the first line and I'm like, "Wait!"
It's kind of just about... how you handle the situation.
That's why I can respect and kind of relate to Steve Harvey.
You know, it's a tough situation to be in.
- (Finebros) So back to this event,
many have said this was a conspiracy.
- Really? - (intrigued) Oh!
- (sighs) That's gonna happen.
- Yeah, I've heard that, which is crazy!
- I think it's a conspiracy because everyone benefits.
Miss Columbia... - Benefits the most.
- ...was not a part of the conspiracy.
But Miss Philippines was.
Roll the tape back, look at Miss Philippine's face
while they're crowning Miss Columbia--
she has this, like, "Pssh. Wait a second." - "Not for long."
- I would like to believe I have enough faith in humanity
that you wouldn't dash a poor woman's dreams
on national television.
- (Finebros) Are there elements, when you watch this,
that make you think maybe it was? - No.
It's too genuine.
- I don't know a single black man, other than Kanye,
who would agree to making himself look like a jackass.
- I would not put anything past PR and marketing people.
- I did believe that when he messed up
he was like-- I could also see the gears spinning
in his mind of, like, "Oh shoot. Oh shoot. I did something wrong."
- It was done too well to be an actual conspiracy,
but it has all the same effects as if it were a conspiracy.
- Who talks about Miss Universe?
No one talks about it, so the fact that we're all talking about it
means it really was an incredible publicity stunt,
if that's what it was.
- (Finebros) So finally, who do you feel worse for?
Steve Harvey or Miss Columbia? - (torn) Oh my gosh!
It sucks for both of them, but I felt bad for Steve
'cause if he didn't [bleep] it up, then...
there's no feeling bad for Miss Columbia.
- Oh, Miss Columbia for sure!
(laughing) Like, no, who cares about Steve Harvey?
- Steve's gonna be fine.
Miss Columbia, definitely, I feel sorry for her.
- Athletes visualize success.
These girls visualize being crowned a winner,
and so her visualization that she's probably had
from a pre-teen until present day
just happened for her in real life, and then got taken away.
- Miss Columbia.
They've worked so hard for it, so to have this kind of awkward moment
be the story of your involvement in that--
it's gotta suck for her, so I do feel really, really, really bad.
