Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach Defends Steve Harvey Despite Miss Colombia Admitted The Snafu Was 'Humiliating'

Crowned Miss Universe 2015, Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, of the Philippines has finally spoken about the pageant snafu and admitted that she doesn't like to share her crown with Miss Colombia or any other contender as she believes that it's not a good idea to have two winners.

In an interview on Good Morning America on Monday, Miss Universe winner, Wurtzbach said that although many people suggested that she should share her crown with Miss Colombia after Steve Harvey inadvertently announced that Miss Ariadna Gutierrez-Arevalo was the winner, Pia is adamant that there should only be one winner on the prestigious beauty pageant.

"I understand how they feel because, of course, that's completely understandable," Miss Universe 2015 winner said, but, noting, "It would be a little bit difficult for two girls to share a crown."

Despite the mix- up, Wurtzbach said that there is nothing to worry about Miss Gutierrez as she believes that there will be a lot of opportunities for her and she said that without a doubt Miss Colombia will "do very well."

As for the Miss Universe 2015 host, Steve Harvey, who admitted during the event that he made a "horrible mistake," Wurtzbach said that she doesn't blame him as she thinks that the runner- ups were written in the card "was a little bit confusing" and added that "people make mistakes," especially on "live television." She even said that she would like to see the host return for the pageant next year.

While Miss Philippines believes that no one should be blame for the snafu, Miss Colombia on the other hand said that the pageant gaffe was very "humiliating" for her. At first she thought that it was just a joke by Harvey, but apparently she realized that there was really a dramatic error which was broadcast live worldwide.

"It was very humiliating for me, but also for the whole country and for all the people not only from Colombia but the other Latinos that were in the auditorium," Gutierrez exclaimed to Latin Times.
