**UPDATE:

The Miss Universe organization tweeted out a correction Sunday night, claiming that Steve Harvey, and their teleprompter, was in fact correct when he declared Miss Philippines Gazini Ganados the winner of this year’s National Costume category.

.@IAmSteveHarvey had it right: Miss Universe Philippines Gazini Ganados is the winner of the #MissUniverse2019 National Costume competition! Congratulations, Gazini.

The tweet did not, however, explain why Miss Malaysia Shweta Sekhon, dressed in her full regalia, was on stage with Harvey to accept the honor. Nor did they explain a previous, since-deleted tweet congratulating Sekhon for winning.

Another Miss Universe pageant, another embarrassing mix-up when it comes to announcing a winner.

On Sunday’s broadcast of the Miss Universe pageant, host Steve Harvey announced the wrong National Costume winner after a teleprompter mishap. The mix-up, this time around, wasn’t nearly as dramatic as when he announced the wrong Miss Universe in 2015.

The 62-year-old comic, who was hosting for the fifth year in a row, inadvertently announced the wrong contestant as the winner of the National Costume category, and was corrected by the real winner.

“Earlier this week, all the contestants competed in a National Costume contest,” Harvey explained. “Here’s a look at the winner, Miss Philippines.”

However, the real winner was, in reality, Miss Malaysia Shweta Sekhon, who took to the stage in a truly jaw-dropping ornate gown that represented the culture and traditions of her country.

Sekhon asked Harvey for the mic and quickly made sure to correct the mistake, explaining, “It’s not Philippines, it’s Malaysia.”

Harvey was quick to explain that this mishap was not, in fact, his fault, but stemmed to a teleprompter mistake.

“Well, let me explain something, I just read that in the teleprompter,” Harvey said, before turning to the producers in the control booth. “Y’all gotta quit doin’ this to me. I can read! They are trying to fix it now, but this is what they did to me back in 2015.”

“This is Malaysia,” Harvey added, having learned from the mistake. “I really love this national costume of Malaysia.”

Harvey later joked, after she explained the significance behind her gorgeous costume, that he was “scared to say your name,” presumably fearing yet another mixup.

This wasn’t Harvey’s only controversial moment of the night. The comic also got slammed on Twitter while talking with Miss Colombia Gabriela Tafur, where he joked about the infamous 2015 snafu, and she said that he was “forgiven.”

“You’ve forgiven me [but] the cartel has not,” Harvey quipped. “They’re not handling it the same way.”

While it may have been an off-the-cuff joke from Harvey, the comment immediately sparked some backlash from critics who took to Twitter to slam the comic for his remark, which many felt was offensive and inappropriate.

Philippines’ Top 10 streaks ends with Miss Universe 2019 pageant

  • The Philippines’ Top 10 streak in the Miss Universe pageant finally came to an end
  • This record first started with Venus Raj and ended with Miss Universe 2018 Catriona Gray
  • This year’s representative for Miss Universe pageant Gazini Ganados failed to advance to the Top 10

For straight nine years, Filipina beauty queens have managed to take a spot in the Top 10 finalists in the prestigious Miss Universe pageant held every year. A record was solely achieved by the Philippines.

The almost decade-long trend started with Maria Venus Raj, a Filipino-Indian who placed as the fourth runner-up in 59th Miss Universe pageant in 2010 wherein she  popularized her fumbled answer “Major Major“.

Sadly, the Top 10 streak of the Philippines came to an end this year.

Gazini Christiana Jordi Acopiado Ganado landed in the Top 20 in the recently held Miss Universe 2019 pageant held at Tyler Perry Studios, Atlanta, Georgia, United States. Despite gaining much support from Filipino fans, Gazini failed to make it to the Top 10.

Many fans still expressed their appreciation to Gazini for giving her best in the competition. Filipinos became more high spirited when it was later announced that Gazini actually won the Best in National Costume Award instead of Miss Malaysia Shweta Sekhon.

Through Twitter, the Miss Universe Organization corrected this announcement hours after the pageant ended saying that Steve Harvey, the host, had read the teleprompter correctly when he named Miss Philippines as the winner.

Miss Myanmar comes out as a lesbian following her participation at the 2019 Miss Universe contestant

17h ago

MYANMAR, Bruma – Miss Myanmar Swe Zin Htet has come out as a gay woman following her competition at the 2019 Miss Universe. 

21-year-old Swe Zin Htet came out publicly just days before taking part in the pageant at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, Georgia on Sunday, December 8, 2019. 

Htet, who won her Miss Myanmar title in May 2019, came out as a lesbian in an interview with the beauty blog Missosology a week before the Miss Universe finals.

‘I came to a full realization about my sexual orientation over a long period of time. I knew I was “one of them” way back in 2015,’ she said.

Coming out publicly isn’t easy, she said, but she wants to use her platform to help LGBTQ people in Myanmar. 

‘It is personally quite challenging but I feel that I have a greater voice and the best position to promote this cause. Some pageant fans know about it and they still support me but this is the first time I am able to talk about it in public,

‘I believe that not all countries allow same-sex marriage. I want the world to accept the LGBTQ+ community and their right to choose their own path and pursuit of happiness,’ she went on. 

‘Love is the most powerful thing and people fall in love with human beings, not gender.’

Speaking about the importance of advocacy, she said: ‘I have that platform that, if I say that I’m a lesbian, it will have a big impact on the LGBTQ community back in Burma,’ she told People via a translator. 

‘The difficult thing is that in Burma LGBTQ people are not accepted… they are looked down on by other people and are being discriminated against.’

LGBTQ people in Myanmar do not have equal rights and I want to change that. I feel like if I am open about my sexuality others will open up, too,’ Htet told Glamour. 

The Miss Universe organization has voiced support for Htet.

‘We are honored to give a platform to strong, inspirational women like Miss Universe Myanmar, who are brave enough to share their unique stories with the world,’ Paula Shugart, president of The Miss Universe Organization, told People. ‘Miss Universe will always champion women to be proud of who they are.’

Meanwhile it is illegal to engage in gay sex in Myanmar, Section 377 punishes gay sex with up to 10 years in prison.
