Yes or No, is the Steve Harvey screw up fake?

Donald Trump (who sold the production rights to the show earlier this year) made the comment that this would not have happened had he still owned the production rights to the show. Classic bandwagon move.

J Jackson's nip slip

You misspelled dumb and you're criticizing Harvey for misspelling something on twitter, where you are writing with tiny onscreen icons and it is very easy to misspell words.

Since when was Valderrama a keeper? That dude was a baller of a midfielder. How do you screw that up????

Me likey Miss Philippines

Steve Harvey had sex with Miss Columbia that week.

NO. My guess is that Steve Harvey didn't know the difference between "First Runner-Up" & "Winner."

The card probably just read "First Runner-Up...Columbia" ASSUMING that Steve Harvey would realize that that meant the winner was the only contestant left...Miss Philippines.

They over estimated Steve Harvey's intelligence (which would be hard to do if you ever watched his talk/advice show)

I think he faked it. They announced that he got a new 3 yr deal this morning. The only people that really acted like they weren't in on this were the girls.

What say yee Letsrun?

It could work out well for someone:

I don't know if it was fake or not, but it's been hilarious how people have suddenly started acting like the whole pageant is actually important in the aftermath. Honestly, if the crowning had gone without a hitch, would anyone have even known that the pageant had even occurred?

From the comments here, apparently Harvey isn't the only one who doesn't know that the country is "Colombia," not Columbia.

It has to be true because Fox posted it.

It's live TV. Mistakes happen.

I thought it might be fake as i thought it was amazing how the tv cameras immediately focursed on the runner-up woman when he said, "I have to apologize."

Why would they pan over there? Of course, I guess tv producers are good but it did make me REALLY wonder.

And that is why...... it's fake

My friend who was either first or eleventeenth also ran at Miss Little Teen American Girl or Little American Girl USA or some such 50 some years ago and follows this drivel said she heard he read the teleprompter & did not read from the card. Some intern got the brown end of the stick, had to type the finishing information into the idiotbox and screwed up the announcement.

And far as the camera positioning I have not watched in years but I think in the past they announced runner -up with the camera swinging to the winner to get the moment of

I'm not runner up so I mus- -- Holy Fukinsiht!!!
