After Steve Harvey announced the winner of the Miss Universe Pageant as Miss Colombia, something dreadful happened to these beauties. And after all they'd already been through!
Miss Universe indeed. When asked why she should be crowned, Miss Philippines said she is "Confidently beautiful with a heart." Miss Colombia only wanted to "empower women all over the world."
No, I didn't watch the pageant. I actually thought beauty pageants were a thing of the past.
Like you, no doubt, I just saw the viral shot of Harvey's last job in show business, but unlike you, I followed it to this:
And this tidbit:
NBC Universal and Donald Trump co-owned the Miss Universe Organization until earlier this year. The real-estate developer offended Latin Americans in June when he made anti-immigrant remarks in announcing his Republican presidential run.
That led Spanish-language network Univision to pull out of the broadcast for what would have been the first of five years airing the pageants and NBC to cut business ties with Trump.
The former star of the Celebrity Apprentice reality show sued both companies, settling with NBC in September, which included buying the network’s stake in the pageants.
That same month, Trump sold the organisation that includes the Miss Universe, Miss USA and Miss Teen USA pageants to entertainment company WME-IMG.
