MANILA, Philippines (Updated 1:29 p.m.) — It has been three years since award-winning host Steve Harvey had a momentary faux pas at a Miss Universe coronation night, yet the crucial moment still haunts him: Only now, he is one to join in at laughing at the mistake.

The Emmy-award winning TV host is back at the Miss Universe coronation for 2018. During the competition’s first cut where the Top 20 were named, Miss Costa Rica Natilia Carvajal—a TV host herself—shared a light moment with Harvey.

Steve blinked a couple of times and clapped back. “You all thought that was funny,” he said adding in a few fake laughs.
