STEVE HARVEY INVITES MISS PHILIPPINES AND MISS COLOMBIA TO ‘FAMILY FEUD’

imageNEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles) – In an effort to repair his reputation as a television host after that Miss Universe gaffe on Sunday, Steve Harvey has extended an invitation to Miss Philippines and Miss Colombia to appear on his syndicated show, ‘Family Feud.’

“I hope that both Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach and Ariadna Guetierrez will accept my invitation for them to be my guests during the show’s special Miss Universe edition, ” Harvey said.

“Family Feud” is an American television game show created by Mark Goodson where two families compete to name the most popular responses to survey questions in order to win cash and prizes.

For the special Miss Universe edition, there will only be two individual contestants — not families: Miss Universe and the first runner-up.

No crown and no prizes will be at stake, but Harvey hopes that his gesture will settle once and for all the controversy surrounding his mistake during the pageant finals in which he announced Miss Colombia as the new Miss Universe only to reverse himself moments later to say that it was actually Miss Philippines who won the contest.

“This invitation is also made in the spirit of sincere apology, camaraderie and world peace,” the TV host concluded.

And the survey said. . .

AFTER CROWNING GAFFE, DONALD TRUMP BUYS BACK MISS UNIVERSE ORGANIZATION

LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – Just days after buying out all of NBC’s shares of stock in his Miss Universe Organization, Donald Trump sold all stocks to WME/IMG which now owns the international pageant held last night in Las Vegas. That was in September.

Fast forward to the night of December 20. Pageant host Steve Harvey (‘Family Feud’) announced the wrong winner, resulting in a brief crowning of Miss Colombia. Then, in a moment never before seen in a live telecast of an international contest, Harvey apologized and announced he had misread the cue card, and that the real winner was Miss Philippines.

The rest is history, with the crowning gaffe dominating the news and social media. The sagging popularity of the Miss Universe pageant suddenly shot up the roof of Planet Hollywood.

Being the shrewd businessman that he his, Trump saw a great investment opportunity and immediately bought back the Miss Universe Organization for twice the price he sold it for.

“I can easily recover my investment,” Trump said, adding, “I will turn Miss Universe into the most successful and profitable business beginning in 2016, assuming I don’t become president of the United States.”

LAS VEGAS, Nevada (The Adobo Chronicles) – It was the most embarrassing and awkward moment ever on international live television when Miss Universe host Steve Harvey (‘Family Feud’) announced the wrong winner, apologizing for misreading the names of the first runner-up and the Miss Universe winner in tonight’s pageant in Las Vegas.

Harvey announced Miss Philippines as the first runner-up and Miss Colombia as the new Miss Universe, only to correct himself and say that Miss Philippines was actually the winner in the beauty contest.

Soon after, he followed up his TV apology with a tweet.  It was yet another disaster.  He misspelled both countries represented by the ladies : Miss Philippians and Miss Columbia.

It will be a long sleepless night for Harvey.
