LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – It was a heart-breaking moment for millions of Filipinos who were rooting for Miss Philippines, Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, to be crowned this year’s Miss Universe.  When the final moment came, Miss U.S.A was named 2nd runner-up, Miss Philippines as 1st runner-up, and Miss Colombia as the new Miss Universe — a back-to-back victory following last year’s winner Paulina Vega, also of Colombia.

Then, all of a sudden, the whole universe turned around a full 360 degrees.

Apparently, pageant host Steve Harvey  wasn’t wearing his contact lenses during his emceeing duties and read the wrong names when he announced the 1st runner-up and the new Miss Universe.

Quickly, Harvey apologized and said that it was actually Miss Philippines who had won the crown.

It was the most dramatic ending ever to an international beauty contest.

What followed were reports of heart attacks in Colombia and the Philippines.
