Fans rejoice over Miss Universe 2015 'plot twist'

Philstar.com

MANILA, Philippines — The cheers at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, California on December 20 grew louder as host Steve Harvey announced that Miss Philippines Pia Wurzbach is this year's winner.

Harvey initially announced Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutiérrez as the 64th Miss Universe but took back the announcement as he realized he misread the card containing the results.

The almost unbelievable twist immediately set social media on fire. While some call it the "the worst mistake in TV awards show history," fans of Wurtzbach dub it as  the "best blunder" in history.
