Just when you thought beauty pageants are more predictable than not, Steve Harvey comes with a moment that makes you regret not waking up at 5.30 am IST to see gorgeous women from across the ‘universe’ sashay down the ramp. As Harvey erred in announcing the name of the Miss Universe winner on Sunday evening in Los Angeles, the world stood stunned for a second not quite knowing how to react. And, yes, we all did feel for Miss Colombia as she stood still, tears in her eyes — possibly wearing the crown for the shortest time ever.

From vicious attacks to memes, the Internet did go all out while reacting to the incident. Here are some of the reactions:
