Steve Harvey made light of his embarrassing blunder at the 2015 Miss Universe pageant with a cheeky holiday message. Days after he announced the wrong woman as the winner of the beauty contest, he took to Twitter on Christmas Day to wish his followers a "merry Easter."
The message came with a photo of the 58-year-old comedian smoking a cigar while making a peace sign with his hand. "Merry Easter y'all!" he wrote alongside decorated Christmas tree emojis.

Harvey made headlines last week after he mistakenly gave the Miss Universe crown to Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez-Arevalo while Miss Philippines Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach was the actual winner. Following the incident, he has apologized multiple times but the internet seemingly still enjoys making fun of the "Family Feud" host in numerous memes that have landed online in the past few days.
Despite the gaffe, Harvey is expected to return to next year's Miss Universe. A recent report claimed prior to his hosting stint last weekend, he'd signed a multi-year contract to host the pageant once owned by Donald Trump and his paycheck would be "more than they've ever paid before for a host."
