Some Filipinos are not too happy with Miss Peru Laura Spoya.
On Twitter on Wednesday, many expressed their dismay over the 24-year-old Spoya, who was quoted to have said in an interview with Colombian news outfit Noticias RCN: "For all of us and I think for most people, Miss Colombia is Miss Universe."
On Monday, host Steve Harvey accidentally announced that Miss Colombia, Ariadna Gutierrez, won the title instead of Filipina beauty queen Pia Wurtzbach.
In an exclusive report published on TMZ, it was said that representatives from Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, Mexico and other Latina countries "were [also] squarely and tearfully blaming Miss Philippines for the embarrassment."
"Although no one could coherently explain why the snafu was her fault," the gossip website added.
Late Tuesday, Miss Bulgaria Radostina Todorova earned praise from Filipino netizens after she was seen urging Wurtzbach to take her walk as the new Miss Universe following the controversial conclusion to the pageant.
Todorova has since expressed her gratitude on her personal Facebook account, even inviting Filipinos to visit her country.
'Mistake was unacceptable'
Meanwhile, Osmel Sousa, the president of the Miss Venezuela Organization, has also decided to speak up about the much-talked about Miss Universe blunder.
In an interview with Venezuelan-based paper and website El Nacional, the 69-year-old Sousa said that a mistake of that magnitude should not occur "at such an important time."
Harvey has since apologized profusely on air for the error and even revealed the winning envelope to prove there was no foul play.
