Burger King’s Response To The Miss Universe Fiasco Was Pretty Savage

This past Sunday, the world watched as the wrong winner was mistakenly announced at the conclusion of the Miss Universe pageant. Host Steve Harvey had read the wrong name and named 1st runner up Miss Colombia the winner, when it was Miss Philippines who won the title. Burger King tweeted a hilarious response to the whole fiasco.

The fast food chain posted Monday a photo of their cardboard crown being placed on someone’s head along with the caption: At BK everyone gets to keep their crown.

Pretty brutal, Burger King. Check out the original video from the competition. Ariadna Gutierrez Arevalo, Miss Colombia, had the honor of wearing the crown for a whole FOUR MINUTES before it was removed from her head. It was then placed on Miss Philippines’, Pia Alonzo Wurzbach, head.
