“That’s okay. I wanna thank you for making me the most famous host of Miss Universe,” he quipped.
During the beginning of the coronation, he expressed admiration for Pia and called her ‘the pride of the Philippines’ and a woman who ‘represents what the crown stands for.’
He also noted how the person she’ll be passing the crown to has big shoes to fill.
Shortly after the incident last December 2015, the situation has been ironed out in a face-to-face interview.
