After the actors mistakenly called La La Land as the winner of the 2017 Academy Award for Best Picture Sunday night, it was quickly realized that Beatty had somehow been handed the wrong envelope and Moonlight was the true victor.
The embarrassing mix-up immediately drew comparisons to Harvey’s flub at the 2015 Miss Universe pageant, when the Family Feud host mistakenly announced Miss Colombia as the winner, when Miss Philippines actually won the crown.
Oscars host Jimmy Kimmel said, “Guys, this is very unfortunate what happened. Personally, I blame Steve Harvey for this.”
Harvey, of course, decided to inject a little humor to the awkward situation.
On Monday morning, Harvey tweeted, “Good morning everybody! Went to sleep early last night. So…what I miss? #Oscars.”
He followed up by encouraging fans to listen to his radio show to hear his take on the incident.
“YOU KNOW I have something to say,” Harvey, 60, wrote.
