USA Miss Universe

USA Miss Universe the top finalists took the stage for the swimsuit portion of the pageant. See the final 10 contestants as they compete in the the 65th annual Miss Universe pageant, held on December 20, 2018, in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Miss Universe has been whittled down from 80 to 15 to 10 and finally five contestants including women representing the United States, France, Colombia, Philippines and Australia.

The 24-year-old woman representing Mexico who had threatened not to participate at the time Trump still co-owned the pageant made it to the final 15 but not the final 10.

Trump sold the pageant in September and Wendy Esparza of Mexico reconsidered her entry saying on her Instagram account that "love and respect between individuals and countries will always be more powerful than hatred."

The competition started with women representing 80 countries between the ages of 19 and 27. For the first time, viewers at home will get to weigh in, with their votes being tallied in addition to four in-person celebrity judges.

NBCUniversal and Trump co-owned the Miss Universe Organization until earlier this year. The real-estate developer offended Hispanics in June when he made anti-immigrant remarks in announcing his Republican presidential run.

Contestant crowned at Miss Universe

Beauty pageants are places where grace and poise are meant to rule, but a decidedly awkward moment stole the show Sunday.

Miss Universe 2018 host Steve Harvey wrongfully declared Miss Colombia the winner when she was the first runner-up. Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach, the contestant from the Philippines, had won.

A contrite Harvey was forced to fix his mistake.

"OK folks ... I have to apologize," he told a confused crowd in Las Vegas.

"Let me just take control of this. This is exactly what's on the card. I will take responsibility for this. It was my mistake. It was on the card."

Moments before, he'd announced Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez as the winner, and she was crowned. Waving a Colombian flag and smiling broadly, she blew kisses at the audience.

When Harvey returned to the stage, Wurtzbach appeared at a loss of what to do.

Stunned, she walked to the front of the stage, where the coveted crown was taken off the head of Miss Colombia and put on hers.

Harvey later took to Twitter to apologize, but he made another misstep when he misspelled both Colombia and the Philippines in an initial tweet. That message was deleted.

"I don't want to take away from this amazing night and pageant. As well as the wonderful contestants. They were all amazing," Harvey wrote.
