Miss Universe 2015 mistakenly announed the winner

or a brief moment on Sunday evening, Miss Colombia's dreams came true.

Ariadna Gutierrez was mistakenly crowned winner of Miss Universe 2015 in Las Vegas before host Steve Harvey recognised his error.

A few painful moments passed before Miss Philippines, Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, was correctly named winner.
Mr Harvey called it an "honest mistake".

To show it had been a mistake, he held up a card which clearly laid out the second and first runners-up and the winner.

That left some observers scratching their heads over how the mistake could have happened.

Ms Gutierrez was instead declared runner-up and gave her crown to Miss Philippines, Ms Wurtzbach.
